Part time Nancy?
The Lord kept mentioning that he wasn’t sure if said Nancy has the stamina to do eight shows a week. Seems like none of them are allowed to! See below before you book, expecting to see the winning lass!

Performance Schedule – Nancy & Oliver
As performances do not commence until 12 December, we do not yet have a full confirmed performance schedule for Nancy and Oliver.
Due to licensing issues we cannot decide which Oliver will perform until shortly before the performance starts.
Sickness and holiday permitting, we have decided that the winning Nancy is scheduled to perform on Monday and Tuesday evenings, Wednesday matinees and Friday evenings. Until the show opens in December we cannot make a final decision on any additional performances.

This is a sure-fire way to piss your audience off!
