Likeheroine Dorothy Gale herself, theatregoers watching The Wizard Of Oz will beblown away by this imaginative new production. Based on the classic 1939film, Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical version sympathetically updates the story,with extra songs (co-written by Tim Rice), sensational sets and amazing specialeffects. Stars include Michael Crawford as The Wizard and Danielle Hope(winner of the TV talent show Over The Rainbow), as Dorothy. However, watchout for Edward Baker-Duly’s excellent reinvention of the Tin Man and HannahWaddingham’s effervescently evil, Wicked Witch of the West. David G TaylorWizard Of Oz, p. 86.Blithe SpiritWith David G TaylorWhat’s hotApparitions andwitticisms aboundin noël Coward’s1941 comedy.Written whileCoward washolidaying awayfrom the devastationof the <strong>London</strong>Blitz, his play hit achord as interestin spiritualism washigh among those left bereaved by World War ii. The story centres onwidower and novelist Charles Condomine and his second wife, Ruth.When they invite an eccentric clairvoyant to conduct a séance at theirhouse as research for his latest book, it all gets out of hand. MediumMadame Arcati accidentally conjures up the spirit of his deceased andextremely jealous first wife, Elvira. Among the cast watch out for AlisonSteadman (Abigail’s Party) as Madame Arcati and one of the WestEnd’s favourite movers and shakers, Ruthie Henshall (Chicago), as thephantom first wife (pictured).
