Well despite what they said about the show touring as well as running at the Dominion it now has a closing date... london.broadway.com/story/id/3000316I saw an advert in the newspaper today for the tour, tickets go on sale for the Edinburgh Playhouse tomorrow. The tour starts in March, it comes my way in November 2009  |

As sad as I am to see this go. It's interesting to see what'll go into the dominion.

Would sorta be weird having Starlight playing in both. lol  |

What's "Time" just out of curiosity? |

"Time" ran from 1986 to 1988 in the Dominion and was the spectacle show to end all spectacle shows. The plot was about a rock star who is transported to an intergalactic court room to defend the Earth and its inhabitants for their inability to reach world peace. It's on the sentimental side but there are some killer tunes and it's still quite timely.

A revival of STARLIGHT?! Has that been confirmed somewhere or is it just speculation and rumors? I don't think we need a revival of that show yet, since it closed only a little while ago. I'd rather see KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN or SUNSET BOULEVARD back on the stage.
Or maybe they'll bring LEGALLY BLONDE or THE LITTLE MERMAID over. But I doubt that.

Nope that was just Exedore saying what he'd like to see in the Dominion. |

Great news for all involved, and for when I've got foreign friends in town - it's a blast being able to say "Get off at Tottenham Court Road and meet me under the statue of Freddie Mercury." |

extraordinary how this article is soooo out of date, that is not the "current" london cast, or the one before, it's just had a new cast go in this week, and is booking until october 2009, I would not even trust WOS as a source in regards to WWRY, only brianmay.com can truely be relied upon for show news
looking forward to another year of we will rock you at the dominion
and the tour
have ticket for opening night in bristol, sept 14th 2009
yea they are going to be running together
