Of course that's right. I guess I need to listen to the cast recording again. It's been years.

But I stand by my point that no matter what their heritage is in real life, Christian Borle, Stephanie Block, and Andrew Rannells don't really look any more or less Jewish than Michael Rupert, Alison Frasier or Stephen Bogardus who played the roles originally.

This is really exciting. I can't wait to buy my ticket. Broadway.com put up this nice video an hour ago of the three discussing the show.

Two questions (forgive my ignorance on the topic) :

1. With Lincoln Center as producer, will tickets be available through LincTix for this production? As they were with VFTB/Disgraced at the Lyceum, or is that not the same case here?

2. Will this be considered a new musical or a revival?

The original production opened on Broadway in 1992, so it'll be a revivial.

GreasedLightning, I believe you can get LincTix with this production as well.

I'm super excited! This is going to be something special!

I'm guessing they'll do LincTix as well as a lottery or rush because of Jujamcyn.

i've got 99 problems and a revival of parade would solve like 94 of them

Gotcha. I only ask because I admittedly don't know much about this show and in the casting article it mentioned that the show was a "new production" which combines the 1981 "March of the Falsettos" and the 1990 sequel "Falsettoland." I am very intrigued!

You can't ultimately compare this production to SIDE SHOW, because this production is being produced by a not-for profit after attempts to capitalize the show (as a commercial for-profit production) failed.

So, yes, this is perhaps a niche show without broad commercial appeal, but there isn't going to be pressure on the production to make money and it should sell fine for a limited run with a subscriber based audience.

didn't realise this had booked a theater already. The Kerr seems like a good choice, just avoid that balcony if you go to buy tickets.

A Chorus Line played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013.

Well FALSETTOS is a combination of MARCH OF THE FALSETTOS (Act 1) and FALSETTOLAND (Act 2). So its both!

WOW I want to see this production do bad! we may return to the city in October, so I hope we can see it. I also desperately want a cast recording. Definitely one of my favorite shows that I've never seen live.

I am so excited for this show but especially the cast. I have a trip to NYC panned for Jan 3-11..Any guesses as to if it will still be playing?

It's also worth pointing out that the original production of Falsettos ran on Broadway for over a year (and March of the Falsettos and Falsettoland both had successful Off-Broadway runs prior to that), as opposed to the original production of Side Show that lasted only about three months on Broadway.

I find I am very excited by this news but I admit to being pretty unfamiliar with the show; is this something that would be appropriate for a pretty mature 14-year-old girl?

There's certainly nothing explicit in the material. It's just a question of whether she will be engaged in it- it's a essentially a domestic drama. The first half deals with Marvin, who has come out as gay and divorced his wife and taken up with a man, dealing with trying to reconcile his family-especially his relationship with his son- with his new life. The second half deals with Marvin coping with both his son's bar mitzvah and his boyfriend's contraction of HIV.

"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."
