In With The New (London Theatre)

I got the chance to pop in and see a snippet from Gone With The Wind last week, following an interview with the Wig Mistress there, Sandra O’Brien. The big eye-opener for me was Darius Danesh as Rhett Butler. Very tall and thoroughly commanding on stage with the longest eyelashes on a man - ever AND, I have to say, an absolute dish in the recent publicity shots, I am really surprised at how many people laugh when I mention he is playing Butler. Or, for that matter, how many people groan at the idea of GWTW as a musical on stage. I thought I was supposed to be the cynic?

Anyway, here is the latest shot of ‘Lashes’ Danesh with co-star, Jill Paice. Personally, I can’t wait.
