I was absolutely certain I'd never seen this. It feels like it's been touring forever - it played most recently in 2022 - and I imagine I'd just say no every time because I don't need to see a stage version of every film that's ever been made, especially one I've only ever seen on TV and which I know more for the songs than the acting. But I did see it and according to my other blog I did so on the second anniversary of my Dad's death. Good heavens. Apparently I found it fun although I was worried the audience might misbehave, something they're even more likely to do now.
