Can I point out that the accent Ms Russel uses is not a cockney accent but a Yorkshire Accent from the Norht of England. I think this shows that Mr Grode should maybe research before he writes. I totally disagree with some of his comments. This is quite simply one of the most cleverly crafted Sondheim revivals. Both Mr Evans and Ms Russel bring different qualities to the piece than the original performers which he likes to refer back too. I seen it in London 18 months ago and travelled to New York to see the opening performance in Studio 54. Mr Evans and Ms Russel along with a fantastic supporting cast have created a wonderful lasting legacy to the genius of Stephen Sondheim. My only regret is that I have only seen this show twice.
