So says a friend of mine who saw the show in Bristol.

They then woke up, as if the whole thing was a nightmare.

Well, the Broadway script was no help. I'm getting the West End opening night script to see if it does in fact include the children's execution.

I think they might have cut it by then.

So I'm a little embarassed to admit this, but I'm 15 and I was a little bit scared of this scene. Then again I hate clowns as it is. I did like that it was a part in the show that was a little darker, though.

Don't feel bad. It kinda freaked out my mom and she's 41! What I didn't get though was afterwards in the next scene they're playing with the toys like nothing happened. I'd be scarred for life!

Not now, but they used to.

I think they are supposed to have made peace with their toys afterwards... in contrast to Jane throwing Valentine down in a temper in the first Nursery scene, they now treat their belongings with some respect.

Miss Andrew isn't really a new character. She is in the book by P.L. Travers, and she does get put a in a bird cage and sent away. She was Mr. Banks' nanny.

So she's not new, really.
