Just found out Miss Saigon 25th anniversary performance is on @SkyArts right now. My favourite musical of all-time. Saw this 2014 version THREE times. Just checked and it’s repeated next weekend. Very much recommend setting your planner to record it. Loved this show for 30 years.
It’s just fabulous. @alistairbrammer @EvaNoblezada @JonJonBriones absolutely phenomenal. Was so gutted not to get a ticket for this special performance and make it four visits. But I did the first preview, first night and last night so think it’s safe to say I am a fan!
Watching Miss Saigon on @SkyArts is taking me right back to last year’s musical cruise @StagesFest - not looking like this year’s will happen sadly. Thankfully musical fancy dress evening - me as GI Chris - was not the Last Night of the World... but I did have a solo saxophone 🎷 
Hey #MadisonWI & anti-racist friends, please be aware of what's happening in Madison with @OvertureCenter's production of Miss Saigon. Originally Overture agreed to host a panel by Asian American Studies scholars on the representations of #AsianAmericans in the show.
Now, the day of the panel, @OvertureCenter has cancelled the panel entirely. Apparently leading up to this Overture staff did not up hold promises, refused to print the program note by Dr. Timothy Yu, and ultimately cancelled the entire panel.
The actions of Overture make several things clear. First the #racism in Madison is not limited to anti-black racism & we need to support our Asian and Asian American community members.
