Trevor Nunn (director of Les Mis, among others) has set his sights on the American Civil War and a musical adaptation of Margaret Mitchell’s Gone with the Wind. With an ensemble cast including veterans of Chicago and Guys & Dolls and a slew of other Broadway hits, it really seems destined for a fantastic opening tonight at the New London Theatre. No word yet as to when it will travel across the waves, but my girlfriend is going to the UK for a wedding next month; I wonder if she might be able to sneak in and give us a review?

The music, of course, is the question, and the fact that Garth Valentine, the same musical director as Wicked is at the helm here gives us some hope that this will be another shining jewel in the theatrical sky.
