    Am thinking about going for either wicked or deathtrap.

    If only I knew my wife better, I'd know which one she'd prefer.

    Warhorse and Enron got my vote recently.

    Jerusalem too, but you've missed that.

    Well, not my cup of tea at all, in fact I can't imagine anything worse than enduring a medley of Queen songs, but nevertheless 'We will rock you' seems to be much admired.

    And of course "Mamma Mia", which should be a hit with anyone of the female persuasion.

    A (female) friend of mine has seen Spamalot and didn't rate it.

    Oh, and I've seen 'Les Miserables' and it was pretty good. Others in the group raved about it.

    The current cast in Les Miserable is excellent and it's moved to the Queens Theater now so tickets are a bit cheaper.

    The Proms are on at the Albert Hall if you can get tickets.

    So, we have:

    Guys and Dolls
    Wicked
    Spamalot
    Priscilla Queen of the Desert (I guess Patrick Swayze is no longer starring in this - or was it just the film anyway?)

    And a no for Oliver.

    I doubt she'll go for Spamalot. I'll see if any other the others have got tickets for the date I need . . .

    Ta.

    I don't know if it's in London at the moment, but a while ago I went to see Guys and Dolls. It was excellent - my wife loved it and Claire Sweeney took her clothes off.

    Send her to London on her own and hire a male escort for her. That way she'll probably have more excitement.

    I had to endure Oliver a bit ago. It was wank.

    I saw 'Wicked' and it was excellent. In fact I went to see it again with my daughter. Then I bought tickets for my parents to see it, they enjoyed it too. My brother and his wife then went to see it on our recommendations!

    I really enjoyed one flew over the cuckoo's nest with Christian Slater but it only had a short run.

    What about the Monty Python Spamalot show?

    Ahh, I did forget to put in my original post, when in New York last year, we did go and see Avenue Q and Fuerzabruta - both of which I had some input into choosing.

    On a serious note. Why not choose something a little less "highbrow"? "Priscilla Queeen of the Desert" perhaps?
