A cut show, with three missing characters—Tantomile, Carbuckety, and Electra—gave us some interesting pair-ups in the 'bums' section!
Bill Bailey seizes his chance (and the Alonzo butt)...
Jemima keeps company with a poor abandoned Coricopat (and will later pair up with him in the honky-tonk section too)...
... and Skimbleshanks, covering Carbuckety's track for a moment, foreshadows his later role in the white cat lift by having a sexy little moment with Victoria.
Nathan Luke as Bill Bailey, George Maniadis as Alonzo, Susannah Murphy as Jemima, Jan-Eike Majert as Coricopat, Hannah Kenna Thomas as Victoria, and Tommie Luyben as Skimbleshanks. Vienna revival, March 2022.
