I haven't seen the S&A Musical either, but I can confirm Alan Hakim's report that TARS members who saw the production at Bristol (and also the current production in London) were all enthusing about it. It seems to be a show which you have actually to see to appreciate properly. One or two people said that they were sceptical beforehand about the various stage 'tricks' and props, but they were soon won over. I intend to see it in March when it comes to Liverpool, my decision being very much influenced by this extract from the Daily Telegraph review:
". . .As well as being great fun, the show, at least for adults in the audience, creates a strong undertow of emotion. It seems like an idyllic image of all we have lost, but which we fleetingly recover while the performance is in progress."
