Longest Original Cast Members? Mar 15
2019, 07:44:43 AM
The most famous example is George Lee Andrews, who is the world record holder for most performances in a single Broadway show.
He was part of the original cast of PHANTOM and played 9382 performances over 23 years.
Marian Seldes also holds a record for most performances on Broadway without a break or vacation (“Most Durable Actress”) for having appeared in all 1792 performances of the original production of DEATHTRAP from 1978-1982

Thanks TDF!

Saw it tonight. It’s definitely the musical equivalent of a high school student who is hallucinating from consuming too many energy drinks.
Some of the performances are stellar, and the costumes were a hit with me (namely the Squip’s ball-gown trench coat). The score is hoppy, but definitely had an amateurish vibe, especially with some of the lyrics. I will say I was HOWLING at the accuracy of the food court selection they used for the Menlo Park Mall scene (since I live not too far fro

It’s now on TDF for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday matinee.
I just picked up tickets for the latter.

They probably haven’t scheduled it yet because most of the shows that would present/perform haven even started previews. It’s a Tony Awards season event, so I’m guessing it will occur sometime in May
Mike Barrett said: "Anyone in the last row balcony for this? View seems great from there but not sure how it is for this show in particular."
Honestly, the last row of the mezz is a great view for pretty much any show that plays here.

Did anyone go last night? They dont have their videos up quite yet but I was curious to see who performed and what they sang
During the summer, you may also get actors from television and film to come in for limited runs they wouldn't otherwise be able to do during the late fall/early winter because of taping (usually in L.A).
Jim Parsons is a great example of this. He's spent quite a few summers out here over the last decade doing theatre in between taping seasons of THE BIG BANG THEORY. During those summers, we got him in THE NORMAL HEART (though I recognize that he was part of an ensemble), HARVEY
I've looked in a few threads and can't seem to find an answer for this, but is the stagedoor for this show in front of the theatre, or around the back like all the other previous shows at the Lyceum? I'm going tonight and I'm just wondering.
Considering the show is still selling out to SRO crowds almost three years in, I don’t think they are shuttering any time soon barring a major surprise.

Question: I looked in the thread and also on Instagram but I want someone to confirm. Are they doing the stage door at the FRONT of the Lyceum now instead of that tiny non-descript area on the next block?

If we are aiming toward younger, I feel like if Taron Egereton knocks out his role as Elton John, he could very well be cast in this

It kind of makes me wonder what the hell they have her doing in this play that could cause a multiple rib fracture in rehearsal
She can certainly adequately sing the role, but doesn’t nail the humor like SJB does and the inflection of her voice is a bit off. Many jokes that had audiences rolling the first time fell flat because of a slightly awkward delivery.
I feel like Dee could get much better as Star if she rehearsed the role more and maybe was a more steady alternate. However, I feel like she woul

I wish she would’ve followed Glenn Close in Sunset Boulevard in 2017 and maybe picked up a special Tony for it. She would’ve probably been a great Sally Bowles in the ‘98 “Cabaret”.
