I wanted to report on the Saturday cast of the musical version of The Hobbit.
Not much to add to the previous review, but some of the players were different. We had the same Gandalf (though he was a little more on key) and Thorin, but a different and decidedly better Bilbo. The dwarves were the same. The kid who played the Goblin kid was scarier this time. We finally had a female Gollum, and for some reason the small part of Bilbo's mother was different. The elves were played by different kids.
The trolls were a little off and not as funny as last time, but other than that this cast was definitely stronger.
Hopefully it will be a while before another version of The Hobbit comes to town. I'm just about worn out!
