@AmyG and I have tickets to see Follies in London this October. Are you planning to see the production? Do you wish you could see the production? Do you just want talk about the production? Have at it!

(God, it's nice to be able to use italics again!)
But us, old friend,
What's to discuss, old friend?

Yes, yes and yes.

Remind me of your schedule. We're seeing it on 9 September, we go away 24 September until 9 October so hopefully there'll be some time for a get-together.

@Gordonb - We'll be back in London from October 15 through October 19, though we'll be busy getting out of town and back to LA on the last day. Maybe we could schedule lunch or dinner somewhere in there. (I can't find the exact date for Follies on our calendar, but I'm sure Amy knows it.)

Our Follies tickets are for October 16. And @Chris L, I just added it to our Google calendar.

We're down for An American in Paris for our anniversary on the 7th so it would have been great to stay on and meet Gordon but we're involved with a charity performance on the 9th alas. I'll work on the notion of a return trip the next weekend if at all possible... 😀

When you say "see the discussion", do you mean the pre-show/Platform discussion at the NT? I must look up when that is - they are usually rather good. I'm going to be at the same performance as @Gordonb - can't wait!

We have tickets for Nov 3rd. Really excited about this one!

Actually, I meant "production." (I'm multitasking heavily. ;) ) But the pre-show discussion sounds interesting. We'll check that out.

@AmyG , @Chris L , @Vera Charles  et al ... that's a Monday evening show right? Why don't we tentatively do something on  the day before, the Sunday, that's if you are in London then? Lunch at our house?

I don't have tickets for Follies, but always happy for an excuse to come up to town, so will definitely be around on one of those evenings, if there is a small gathering which I can crash...?

That's the day we get back to London and I'm not sure what time we'll be arriving, but if it can be worked out that would be great! (I've heard that food at your house is excellent.)

Hmmm. I'm supposed to be at one rehearsal in Weston-super-Mare and simultaneously at a rehearsal in Cambridge on the 15th of October. Maybe I should ditch both for London? (Which, sadly, would probably be more than my life is worth.)

Well London would be pretty much in the middle of both, so it would be fairer... (And we could lift-share... 😉)

I am hoping to see it (may just wait to see if it is on NT Live ... ) but would definitely be up for some sort of meet up :)
