The Lord of the Rings Musical!
Has anyone seen it yet?
I saw it on the 23rd of August at the Theatre Royal, Drury lane in London.
It was totally amazing!!
Although it deviated slightly from the story (mainly to condense the story for the show time) it maintained the spirit of the books and even incorporated things into it that Peter Jackson left out in the films, such as Bilbo's famous line: "Don't adventures ever have an end?"
I don't want to spoil it for anyone but I have to say the Balrog scene was
amazing.
Gandalf stands alone in the centre of the stage, cloak billowing amidst a torrent of "fire" and smoke that eventually expands to engulf the entire audience, showering the theatre in black confetti which is used to represent the demon's fiery ashes!
If you can go and see it!
