What can we say! Hedwig in Edinburgh - *fantastic*! We made it up there for a week and had a brilliant time, it was so good to be back at the show. We feel so lucky to have got to see Kevin play Hedwig, we really enjoyed his performance (which reminded us a lot of Nathan Taylor...anyone else find this?) as Hedwig, and it was so interesting to see Virginia as Yitzak as she has SUCH a different approach to the character to Liz Marsh (the only other Yitzak we've seen). It was great to see all the London band again - Mark, Chris and David, as well as the new MD Drag, who was unbelievably good and a really lovely guy too.
Hellooo to all the Hedwig fans we met up with there from all over the world, hope to stay in contact. We'd also love to hear anyone's comments on what they thought of the show up there etc.
Okay, enough gushing - you get the idea! Maybe we'll put up a proper review type thing soon, if anyone else wants to write one too that would be fab! Anyways, here are the all-important details:
