This time, the reader question was: Have there been many Broadway musicals starring only two actors, before Gutenberg! The Musical!?

Do you have a love for musical theatre? Have you ever wanted to learn how to write your own show? Well, look no further. Sir Tim Rice, the iconic lyricist and author behind hits like Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, The Lion King, and Beauty and the Beast has released a 23-lesson-long course with BBC Maestro to teach you how!

Jermyn Street Theatre has revealed an eclectic programme of summer visitors, running over a two-month period from 4 July to 2 September.

Tim FitzHigham and Duncan Walsh Atkins will return to Crazy Coqs with their homage to Flanders and Swann on 10th November.

Ted Gold (Gabriel Byrne) is a mega-rich, mega-famous, Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist and blockbuster movie producer. Problem is, overwhelming success has turned him into a mega-hack, and he knows it. His misery and self-loathing makes him treat everyone in his life with disrespect. One morning, as he travels from his Malibu seaside home to promote his new book, he is completely oblivious to the fact that his destructive behavior will ruin his life within 48 hours.

Rachel Price has come a long way from her hometown of O'Neill, Nebraska to pursue her dreams of being a singer/songwriter. She moved to Nashville almost three years ago and now, the talented Price has teamed with Australian-born, Music City-based producer, musician and composer Michael Flanders for a brand-new, six-song EP, Home.

When a show at the Metropolitan Room starts over thirty minutes late because the staff is frantically trying to find chairs and room for the better part of New York's cabaret community, you know you're in store for something truly special. And unless there's a chair thief on the loose in Flatiron who doesn't like Broadway, someone clearly oversold this show and/or lost track of comps; this was extremely vexing with a heat advisory in effect. Still, the mood was festive in anticipation of Jeff Harnar's 1959 Broadway Songbook, the 12th installment in Stephen Hanks' impressive (and increasingly well-known) New York Cabaret's Greatest Hits series. Harnar's show premiered 25 years ago at the Algonquin's Oak Room. Two years later, PBS filmed the collaboration with musical director Alex Rybeck, whose arrangements honor the original compositions but reimagine them in sometimes astonishing ways, making them genuinely creative acts.

The classic comic songs of satirists Flanders and Swann will be brought back to life by Sydney's own double Logie Award-winning TV compere Andrew O'Keefe (Deal or No Deal, Weekend Sunrise) and Mr Showmanship himself, Glenn Amer at Glen Street Theatre for two special performances only.

Glen Street Theatre is excited to announce their 2016 season of entertainment at the beautiful Belrose venue. A diverse programme of drama, music, satire and comedy plus a series of kids shows promises something for everyone.

G'ninth G'normous year at the Pleasance! Tim Fitzhigham and Duncan Walsh Atkins return for one week only with their award-winning, hilarious show. Featuring the songs and wit of those masters of mayhem, mirth and Madeira, and legends of 1950s and 60s comedy, Flanders and Swann. The show runs Upstairs (Pleasance Courtyard) from 18th to 25th August at 14:15 (15:15).

Cabaret and physics? Who would have thought? Yet, Gia Mora makes it all work.

Reported first earlier today by BroadwayWorld.com's scoopster, Rialto Chatter, it's now been confirmed that the show will indeed close on April 4, 2010. The show has been struggling at the box office since it opened. The show will have played 27 previews and 20 regular performances.

It seems Dame Edna and Michael Feinstein's ALL ABOUT ME will play its final performance on April 4, 2010 after opening on March 18, 2010. Telecharge.com, the show's official ticketing outlet, is only selling tickets through April 4, uncharacteristic of a new Broadway production that just opened. Tickets are usually available for purchase months out.

'All About Me' star Dame Edna sat in as guest co-host of ABC's 'The View' on Thursday, March 25. Dame Edna spoke candidly on many topics including her love life and Madonna's adoption choices. She was also joined by Michael Feinstein, also starring in 'All About Me' for a musical performance of 'We Get Along Amazingly Well.'

On March 18, Dame Edna and Michael Feinstein opened their new Broadway collaboration, ALL ABOUT ME, at the new Henry Miller's Theatre. BroadwayWorld and Broadway Beat were on hand to talk to the dynamic duo starring in this special show and bring you these highlights!
