I've seen a number of articles online saying that the UK filming of the musical goes on sale on the 25th of this month. However, I can't see a single site where it's available to order (at least, available to UK folks, I haven't checked overseas sites).
Anyone else heard anything about the release? Or even better, have a link to order?
Finally a physical release. Can only hope we'll see more of these...

I want this because I just wanna see Lola flip on Charlie about burgundy and the heel omg. Iconic!
Who do I pay to have her buried facedown? Provincial restrictions mean even if I wanted to I cannot travel. I am totally not one glass from the bottom of a bottle of 19 crimes.
So thanks for all the laughs. And Iโm sorry if I seem like a monster, but that cloud of Chanel no 5 has been planted. According to my aunt, who is very mom-like to me, and has spoken to kink once since the 80s, attended the funeral. Important to note: my parents have 6 siblings between them and only speak to one. Two daughters and only talk to one. Ask me what the common denominator is.
Anyhoo, aunt says the funeral went well enough. None of the other siblings showed and it was purely acquaintances. Nsis was apparently wearing a hat with a veil and being crazy dramatic with her sobbing. EDad looked like he was zoned out, but he did truly love her, fuck knows why.
Then things took a turn. Nsis started screaming at my aunt she was the reason kinky died and to leave right now โbefore she did something drasticโ eDad tried to calm her down, which is essentially throwing water on a grease fire (personal experience). Bitch is a nutjob.
So my aunt and uncle left, she could barely keep it together, she was laughing so hard when she phoned. But, auntie assures me sheโs dead and Iโm safe now. Iโm pretty sure if Iโd asked she would have brought a stake. She knows what I went through, itโs half the reason they were estranged. Iโm free, yโall! I may or may not post some more of her bullshit, and if I ever talk to EDad. I took one call but havenโt answered any of his follow ups. Itโs been 6 years of silence from him so I donโt feel I owe him anything.
