^ What I don't understand about Matilda's advertising, is only a tiny bit of the footage in the commercials is acting from the Broadway cast. Also, they still have no pictures of the cast outside of the theater, and the posters in Times Square features the infamous random-Matilda...So IDK how they spent a fortune, as they seem to have previously acquired everything they used.
"but they are actually great in the show ". I can respect that, but I personally found that Carly whispered the score, and was a definite step down from Laura. Fran was great as Fran, I did not find her Wicked in anyway (but I still LOVED her). I really miss Laura and Harriet. I mean, to be completely honest, I am not crazy about the show at all, but I found Carly's performance to be soo greatly lacking. Maybe I'm alone.
Bridges will make money in regional theaters. It's an easy show to produce. And you really only need two great actors and the rest could be some non-union local hires.
This is probably a stupid question, but I'm curious, so I figured I'd ask...
Let's say that I buy a ticket today to go see a musical in June. Would that money go toward this weeks grosses, being as how I'm paying for it today, or would it be added on to the gross of the week I see the show?
