Editing Adelphi Theatre (section)

===21st century===
In November 1997, the London production of the popular American musical ''[[Chicago (musical)|Chicago]]'' premiered at the Adelphi, becoming the venue's longest-ever production during its eight-and-a-half-year run (which also made it the longest running American musical in West End history). In April 2006, ''Chicago'' transferred to the [[Cambridge Theatre]] (and later to the [[Garrick Theatre]], where it closed in 2012.).

[[Michael Grandage]]'s revival of [[Andrew Lloyd Webber]]'s ''[[Evita (musical)|Evita]]'' replaced the show, beginning previews on 2 June 2006 before completing a twelve-month run on 26 May 2007. [[Brian Wilson]] performed his album ''[[Pet Sounds]]'' for the last time in the UK at the Adelphi in November 2006. From 6 July 2007, the Adelphi was home to another Lloyd Webber revival, ''[[Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat]]''. The actor playing Joseph, [[Lee Mead]], was cast by winning the [[BBC]] television show ''[[Any Dream Will Do (TV series)|Any Dream Will Do]]'', and starred alongside Preeya Kalidas and Dean Collinson.{{citation needed|date=August 2012}}
