BE MORE CHILL (Broadway) Reviews  Mar 11 2019, 11:46:48 AM

They did a promo of this show on the NBC Nightly News either on Friday or Saturday, I can't remember which.

 

I did want die a little when a young fan surmised that this show would be the next Hamilton, but I digress.

A Bronx Tale

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Summer

ErikJ972 said: "The cult of personality is strong.

I think it's pretty clear that those who accuse Wade Robsonand James Safechuck of doing this documentary for fame and fortune have not bothered to watch it. Of all of the complaints leveled at the film, this is the most ridiculous. Especially coming from the Jackson family.

This show is never going to happen.

But it’s not typically on the Broadway tour circuit, which is how I understood the question.


RENT Live on Fox  Jan 29 2019, 08:58:07 AM

They should have just thrown Aaron Tveit or some other actor who had previously played the role up there instead of the actor who was injured (pardon me for forgetting his name) and called it a day. Realistically---I get that wouldn't happen for a myriad of VALID reasons but it would have definitely generated more interest.

RENT Live on Fox  Jan 28 2019, 02:49:31 PM

I'm just not sure that Rent is the kind of show that families are going to tune in to watch. JCS and Grease--those are palatable shows to families with kids. Rent is definitely for teens and up and competed with other shows. Plus, True Detective, Victoria and many other shows were playing at the same time slot. Wrong time of year and wrong show IMO. And Rent feels very dated to me.

Most underrated  Jan 7 2019, 02:43:45 PM

I am not sure that 'underrated' is the term that OP is looking for here, since many people are citing musicals that won awards for Best Musical. Maybe 'best show that didn't gain longterm mainstream popularity' is more precise.

Excellent! I would love to see Cartell and Davis again but definitely understand if they aren't extended or don't want to extend.

 



Going into Hamilton Blind  Jan 3 2019, 01:16:09 PM

2019-2020 Touring Season  Jan 3 2019, 01:14:58 PM

Anyone know if Les Miz is going to extend past August? I see on the website that they are hitting Chicago for the second time this summer. Josh Davis said on IG that his contract is up in June. Appears like the show is selling really well. I am hoping that it will make another stop in Detroit this fall or next spring.

"I think we, in our own small Broadway world, take the show for granted now that we're 3+ years out from its creation."

It took him seven years to create it and it debuted in January 20015, so four years. I think most people have moved on, not taken it for granted.

It seems like LMM and Hamilton really brought Broadway into the


Hugh Jackman at the Bowl not selling that well?  Dec 26 2018, 10:49:49 AM

haterobics said: "Bette's Turban said: "This thread is still referring to the Hollywood Bowl."

I think a vast minority of this thread is about the Hollywood Bowl.
"

 

I think the thread went off course when a few started to act like the tour was the END of Hugh Jackman's career and the WORST mistake he could ever make.
