Jodie Prenger - Oliver in person success!

Unread post by Phoebe »

I went to the Stage Door at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane in London - where Cameron Mackintosh's new West End production of Oliver! is being held - before the 7:30PM evening performance of the show. I got there at 5:00PM on Monday the 6th April and I was desperately hoping to catch Jodie Prenger before she went in as I am such a big fan of hers and when I go up to see Oliver! in June I am going to be with a big group and won't be able to stage door. Anyway, I went to ask the stage door Manager what time the cast would usually go in and she asked me who I was waiting for (she probably thought I wanted to see Rowan Atkinson who is of course off sick at the moment), I said it was Jodie that I wanted and she said that Jodie was already in, :( as they'd had a rehearsel so she'd been there early. Then as I was leaving feeling really upset the women said that actually she'd just remembered Jodie had gone out for a bit and would be coming back at around 6 ish she thought. So I went back and waited, but I didn't think I could wait that long as I was going to a show that evening. The at around 5:35PM I saw Jodie crossing the road to get to the theatre and she saw us waiting (we were the only ones) and was so nice. She signed and personalized my Oliver! souvenir programme but she started to spell my name wrong so she drew an arrow and wrote sorry! by it. :lol: Then she signed and dedicated my copy of her autobiography and thanked me for reading it, she was glad that I had enjoyed it. Jodie chatted for ages and posed for a photo with me apologizing that she wasn't wearing any makeup and she said that I looked lovely and asked me where I was going. She then talked to us for ages more and as she went in she gave me a kiss too, she is really lovely!

I also saw Gwion Jones one of the three Olivers cast on I'd Do Anything along with Jodie leaving the theatre with his chaperone about 15 minutes before Jodie went in. They went in the other direction so I didn't see Gwion's face but I recognised his hair and thought it must be him. I asked the stage door manager which Oliver was on today and she said that she didn't know, but he'd just left with his chaperone. So I really wish I'd called him now, he was so talented and I'm a really big fan of his!
