Wicked surprise! Jeff Goldblum shows off his impressive piano skills as he shocks commuters with an acoustic performance at St Pancras Station
Jeff Goldblum shocked Londoners on Wednesday as he performed an impressive impromptu festive performance at St Pancras Station.
The Royal Festival Hall in London must have seen some sights in its 70-odd years but possibly nothing quite like Monday evening’s European premiere of Wicked, at which the lucky members of the audience were those not seated behind the drag queens dressed as Glinda, the Good Witch of the South. The stage musical Wicked, notional prequel to The Wizard Of Oz, by all accounts has a huge gay following and Jon M Chu’s eagerly-awaited film adaptation, conspicuously targeted at least partly at the same demographic, is a riot of camp. But it’s done with such tremendous pizazz, and the sets and costumes are so gloriously, preposterously, over the top, that I just about forgave the insanely long running-time and didn’t even object when a drag queen built like a prop forward, wearing a pink taffeta dress, leapt up with such excitement at the end that he elbowed me in the eye.
