Barbie and Oppenheimer both released on the same day to much fanfare and competition. In Birmingham we also have two world premieres arriving together this autumn - I'm in the city today to find out which live theatre show Brummies would see first, Black Sabbath - The Ballet or Sinatra the Musical.

00:00 I would go with Black Sabbath, definitely.
00:03 And also, there seems... I'd be very interested to see how they turn Black Sabbath into a ballet.
00:09 I feel like that's two very different things.
00:12 But yeah, I think I would definitely go see that. I'd bring my dad.
00:15 Yeah, I'm sure your dad would love that.
00:17 It's like the biggest Black Sabbath that...
00:19 I'd probably go for Frank Sinatra, that's because I prefer his music.
00:22 But then I'd also love to see Black Sabbath, just because I think it'd be hilarious to see how they've actually managed to over-buffer it.
00:26 Yeah.
00:27 I think I'd like to go and see the Black Sabbath one first, because it's sort of like local to here,
00:33 with Birmingham culture and all that sort of stuff. So that's the one that appeals to me first.
00:38 To be honest, I've not heard anything about it, but having heavy metal with ballet, that sounds really innovative.
00:46 And although heavy metal is not my genre, I'd be happy to find out a little bit more about it.
00:58 But if I had a choice directly, it would be Frank Sinatra.
01:02 This is my age.
01:03 Hey, JNL.
01:04 Probably Black Sabbath. I've been in a rock band myself, so that immediately kind of pulls on the power strings.
01:11 So yeah, I think that would probably be my one choice. But Frank Sinatra, I've got a lot of appreciation for his voice.
01:19 It's probably something I'd be interested in as well.
01:22 Yeah, Black Sabbath with the guitars. Yeah.
01:25 It'd be interesting to see a ballet take on it, I suppose. But yeah, definitely.
01:29 I've watched the second one more, because I like musicals.
01:34 Same. I like musicals.
01:37 Black Sabbath, the ballet. Because it'll probably have Black Sabbath music in it, like ballet.
01:43 Whereas, what was the other one?
01:45 Sinatra, the musical.
01:47 Sinatra, the musical has been done as it really. So Black Sabbath would be something different, I guess.
