I saw the show a ridiculous number of times when it was on originally, and I'll always defend it! I wasn't a fan of the films/books, but as a show I LOVED IT. They did so much with it - Gollum climbing down the curtain, the fake interval where the orcs came and freaked everyone out, the 15 minutes before it started and the hobbits were in the audience catching fireflies. The visuals were insane, and the cast were so talented. I've seen so many shows and have always said if there was a way to bring back an exact show that's closed, I would pick this! Definitely want to go to this!

When I saw it, when the orcs came out for the fake intermission, it was so funny! A lady in front of us wound up in her neighbor's lap, because they scared her (she was on the aisle), and someone tried to use the bathroom, and got surprised/scared by the orcs both at their seat, and at the exit. 😂

This is really exciting news.. I saw the London production on the closing night and wow, whilst it may have been a commercial flop, the epic scale and spectacle that was brought to life on stage was something I’d never experienced before nor have since. The score is breathtaking and hope that this remains unchanged for the revival and hope that the essence of the sheer magic is recreated to a new audience by the Watermill, it certainly seems an ambitious project to mount.

Watermill is my local theatre and I am so excited. I've actually seen two shows that have used their garden, one was Camelot - which was wonderfully done including Lancelot's introduction being him singing on the roof of the theatre and the duels being done on hobby horses - it had been advertised as a concert but it was 100% so much more. The other show I saw outside was Ackborne's house and garden, which is two plays being put on by the same actors (and character) at the same time, the audience either sit inside watching house or outside watching garden, and the actors move between the two (and then most people obviously go and see what's happening by watching the other play). That was also ambitious and amazing and a lot of fun. So yeah, mad excited about this (and privileged to live so near!)

I feel so lucky that I got to see it in the West End back in 2008. It just happened to align with my family trip to the UK. The set was the most remarkable set I probably will ever see - it doesn't surprise me that it was also quite dangerous, but seeing them actually climb mountains onstage was so cool, and the way the elves came down on silks, and the ents had the most enormous stilts -- it was really incredible. I also love a lot of the music, but it is so wonderfully scored that I don't see how it will work without an immense orchestra. To me, the only thing that was really lacking in the original was that some of the actors' performances were a bit lackluster (though others, like Sam, were brilliant). It is very cool to me that someone is bringing back this show, and I'm excited to hear what you think of it once you go see it!

Ahhhh I'm so excited!!! I saw this musical on my first visit to England back when I was 11 or so years old! It was also my first time seeing a proper on-stage musical- my family are all huge LOTR fans, so when we saw the posters for it in London we bought tickets straight away. I still remember it as one of the best theater experiences I have ever had! There was a huge tree as a part of the set design with roots spreading out everywhere- even near the seats on the second floor (which is where I was)- and I remember the actors who played Merry and Pippin hanging out in the seats before the show started and goofing off in character, and they kept trying to climb the tree roots. When the orcs came out a lot of them had on those jumping stilts- so the fight scenes were like these wild acrobatic performances, and the orcs would run around through the audience as well and snarl at people! The Lothlorien scenes were my personal favorites as they were so striking- with tons of rope dancers twirling down from the ceiling and just the most gorgeous music. We bought the soundtrack afterwards and my sister and I would listen to it all the time growing up! Adaptation-wise, I think this musical was one where the hobbits felt the most like hobbits. They were peppy, they would sing and dance (they had Frodo actually sing his song in the Praincing Pony and dance on the tables!!! It was so great!!!), and their representation felt really true to the books for me. I am so excited to see what they do for this new version!!! I'll need to get to the UK sometime this year to see it!

I saw the London production, and loved it. As the audience were getting seated the hobbit ensemble improvised being in the Shire on stage. One of the actors was someone I had known at primary school (both he and I would have been in our early 20s at that point), and I think my dad and I put him off a bit as we sat in the front row, he definitely saw us! I really enjoyed the production, as a fan of the books and films I was quite impressed how they managed to cut the plot down to its essentials. I also enjoyed how it had a unique look in terms of costume and styling, it didn't try to ape the film. The Lothlorien song (and Galadriel's costume and makeup) was amazing, and I have listened to it many times since. Other memories include the balrog spraying out little bits of tissue paper everywhere (I obviously picked some up and tucked it into my programme), Gollum climbing vertically down a curtain, and the final battle sequence. I don't think my dad liked it quite as much as I did, but he's fairly ambivalent about musicals in general. Will definitely be trying to see this new production.

Lord of the Rings onstage was just astonishing - I was lucky enough to do a work placement on the show. The guy whose leg got crushed went on to play Bill Bailey in Cats - so - full recovery! But LOTR has AMAZING AMAZING music - it was almost not a musical, almost all the music is diagetic, or used more like a film score. The sets and costumes were amazing, the puppetry, the magic, in fact the only thing wrong with the original production was its source material - simply trying to fit that much story into one evening didn't really work, especially if you knew the source material well. There was battle after battle, and still fans going "where was this battle?!?" But Laura Michelle Kelly as Galadriel had something magic in Drury Lane, I don't know, she made the auditorium ring like a bell. So stunningly powerful and beautiful, and her understudy didn't quite get the same effect... The trouble isn't the show didn't have an audience, the trouble was the running costs were from another time. It was the last mega-musical, gold leaf on everything, money spent on the spectacle. Not the cheapest possible, maximise profits at all costs approach since. Stripping the gilt off the show leaves us with a well known, beloved story, strong characters, glorious music, but a book that feels quite rushed. Room for a lot of creative puppetry, magic and imagination. I don't think the mega-musical could be staged without the 50-strong cast (which wasn't near enough covers) and the moving sets and big budget, but an intimate, immersive experience can take a different approach and be amazing. As long as the music doesn't suffer for it!

I just cannot imagine how you would try to cut LOTR down to a single theatre performance, it took 3 movies (which are shorter than musicals due to not having musical numbers slowing the plot down) 9+ hours to tell it and there are still people furious about how much had to be cut. I'm not sure how economically feasible it would be to do in the modern day, but I wonder if a structure similar to Wagner's Ring Cycle (4 separate plays performed across a week) might be a better format for trying to fit a story of that size into a musical format.

At the end when they return to a devistated Shire (different to the London show) the audience even help with the reconstruction.

Outdoor promenade performances which then lead the audience to a static venue. With careful planning this works extremely well and I have no doubt it will go very smoothly for them. They may well put a bad weather contingency in place for the outdoor parts - or they may just plough on through unless it becomes unsafe to do so. It's sounds like it's going to be an exciting revival!

I also remember the soundtrack was unlike anything I had ever heard back then or even today, revisiting the album I can still picture the grand spectacle that put the phantom to shame. but above all the cast where perfectly cast and had such a passion for the show. one moment of the show that will stay with me forever is when.......Spoiler alert.......... Gollum fell into mount doom with the ring and was slowly falling from the top of the stage in red light and smoke with Galadriel singing behind him. it was a truly mesmerizing show and it is a tragedy that it closed so early. I live in york, but will make the journey to see this if only to experience it again (albeit on a smaller scale) and I can not wait.

Saw it back at the Theatre Royal in 2008 or so. Music: To call it a musical is loose. As I recall all the singing is diegetic and in exactly the style you’d expect (airy and ethereal for the elves, folksy for the hobbits and dwarves, tavern songs for humans)- “hey Frodo, give us a song”, “won’t you sing us the tale of ____ please Lady Galadriel” Pace and plot: The whole thing is done at breakneck speed so much so that Gandalf seems to be constantly running and breathless and delivers his lines like he’s just done 5 lines of coke backstage. You get to end of act 1 with the balrog scene (phenomenal though that is) so the rest of Fellowship and the 2 towers is basically non existent. They also skip whole sections and merge characters to fit it all in. Theoden the horse lord who’s advisor was Wormtongue, and Denethor who tried to burn himself and son alive, became one character incorporating both these plots. Other merges and pretty heinous omissions aplenty. Overall: despite this, the visuals, the set, the artistry I have never seen equalled since. If you could have gone in with the loosest expectation of a musical and the loosest grasp of the original plot, and just soak up the atmosphere you would have had an amazing time.

Yes, they're stressing the "immersive" aspect a lot, but they have every right to do so - LotR has always been immersive! They had hobbits dancing through the auditorium pre-show, orcs scaring audience members during the interval, and a balrog blowing hot air and paper scraps into the audience back in 2006 already! Nice to see they're sticking with it, it really adds to the experience. As for the rights - I think Saul Zaentz's (co-producer and rightsholder) death in 2014 could have had something to do with it - his legacy was only sorted out last year. Once I start talking about this show, I can't seem to stop - anyway, I didn't get to see it live, but I may have consumed every little bit of content there is over the past seven years xD

The music is gorgeous, and the spectacle was glorious - but it suffered really badly from being the entire Lord of the Rings, trying to fit into a single performance. The actors were gabbling their lines out as fast as they could, and it was still over three hours long. Personally I think the way to do it would be to split it up and let each part breathe a bit more. My first thought is to be skeptical of a show known as a huge spectacle being put on in a small venue, but then I think of _La Cage aux Folles_ and how that show was known as a huge spectacle until the Menier(which seats 200 if some of them sit on the floor) put on an award-winning production of it and it was one of the best things I'd ever seen. So I don't assume it can't be done and done well.
