Lol! Yes, and I live in New York so I can't hop on a plane and go off to see the Nancys and Josephs perform live! Pity...but I'm sure someone will record it. Wonder if they'll have some more good duets just Connie and Lee did in "When Joseph Met Maria".


Lalalaur, watch out for the subway tracks when you arrive here!

According to this site, Jason Donovan and Ruthie Henshall will be performing as well.

http://www.seetickets.com/alw/price.asp?code=323095

This'll turn out to be a fantastic concert! Elaine Paige, Idina Menzel, John Barrowman, Ruthie Henshall, Lee Mead, Daniel Boys, and some of the Nancy's (hopefully Rachel, Sam and Jodie will be there) all in one concert!!!!! Hopefully Michael Ball will join the lineup as well.

BTW, does anyone know which Nancys will be performing?

I can announce that Jessie will be performing at the concert. I've been asked to keep the identity of my source a secret but trust me, it is very reliable.

"BTW, does anyone know which Nancys will be performing?"

Niamh has confirmed she will be performing at this event. The information came from Miss Perry herself in an interview with Keith Jack about their hit show at the Edinburgh Festival, Only the Brave, all courtesy of Scott Matthewman here.

I'm so excited!!

Idina, Elaine Paige, Lee Mead, Daniel Boys, Lewis Bradley, JB, DVO, Jessie, Niamh, Jason Donavon, Ruthie Henshall - could this concert get any better!?

I'm pretty much bouncing at the prospect of seeing all of these people!

It says on the Ts and Cs for the ticket giveaway that they will notify successful applicants FROM the 20th August. At what point do we decide we haven't won and buy and is there a risk they'll be gone by then?

Any ideas as to what DVO might sing?
