Anyone else been to see this yet? Can't find another thread. I saw it a couple of weeks ago. Bowie wrote it as a follow-up play to The Man Who Fell to Earth. It opens with Thomas Newton in his apartment.

I really enjoyed it, although it's maybe not for everyone, although MrsC who's not particularly a Bowie fan also thought it was really good. The lead is Michael C Hall, who occasionally sounds enough like DB to put hairs up on the back of your neck; in fact, a couple of times I wondered whether it was a recording. There's a live band, behind a glass screen.

I didn't actually realise who MCH is/was - Dexter. He's a very good singer.

Anyway I won't say too much more in case you're going to see it.
