Is it time for a mass exodus from Broadway World? May 10
2018, 08:27:19 PM
So we can't call a racist a racist but we may call a homophobe a homophobe? How does that make sense? And I'm still salty some of the best and most engaging discussions and debates on this board I've had were deleted because you wanted to censor us in favor of Javier M*ñoz. Or in favor of a teenage stalker fan. I'm technically still a teen, and I would never behave like that. But no censor that so her feelings aren't hurt UwU.
g.d.e.l.g.i. said: "I think our believing that you take this seriously would be a lot easier were the subject of this thread not mocking its title openly on his Snapchat account."
What's his snapchat @? Or will you PM me a screenshot? This sound really unprofessional, I'm disappointed.

I'm relatively new here. But in my time being here, I've seen multiple interesting and engaging threads removed simply because moderation doesn't like them. Namely the Javier muñ*z thread that got removed because... I'm not exactly sure, I don't remember violating the terms when I had posted in that thread but now it's disappeared. Staff here locking a thread just because "oh we disagree with discussion of a preformer outside of their show" is completely unjust. The SpongeBob fan threa
"Frozen" Toddlers STORY May 7

I was at cursed child, and I saw somebody with box seats taking their child in there to see the show. I think it was a great solution to not distract others with your child. She was about 10, and when she was walking out of part one in the robe she said she enjoyed it (they were walking behind me), but it's nothing like the books. So I'd assume it's okay to take that age. at SpongeBob on the other hand, I did not have that luxury. I was in the Mezz, and in the center to my left was a 7ish
Good Idea/Bad Idea? Asking actors to sign my Graduation cap. May 6

Just a suggestion, bring a metallic sharpie so the signature shows up! Silver looks nice on blues, purples, and blacks, while gold looks good on whites, reds, and greens. I'd love to see the result!

Not to divulge from the topic at hand, but this is one of the funniest mistypes I have seen on these forums.
Back on topic, In probably 10-15 years the gender in category will become relevant due to the rise of tran
A very detailed discourse on THE BOYS IN THE BAND Apr 27

I'm excited for this play! Somebody stated earlier how Millennials hated the movie, but I don't think many have even seen it. It's nice to see 2 LGBT plays on at once, and I hoped to see both Angels and Band, but I don't think I can afford tickets to both nor have the time in my schedule to get tickets to both. It's a nice eye opener for those who do not know the history before Stonewall at least. Andrew Rannells may pull in a few people who normally wouldn't see the show, lots of the fans of th
If you know cannot afford tickets to more than two shows and an off-broadway, maybe try rush/cancellation. The average ticket is around $110. With rush, one could see 2/3 $40 shows on rush or cancellation. Personally, this is how I've seen every show besides Hansen and Sponge so far. It works great, and you could get to maybe 6 Broadway shows doing that! Which shows would be your top picks? Lotteries are amazing too if you have a smartphone.
When Someone Overflows Onto Your Seat & Ruins The Show? Apr 26
2018, 06:22:02 PM
Just adding my 2 cents, a friend had an overweight person next to heat SpongeBob. She has high functioning autism. The combined rubbing against her arm by the man and his heavy breathing made the show a "sensory hellhole." Overweight people should be considerate by getting an aisle seat or swapping out with somebody in an aisle. I remember when I was at Waitress, an overweight and elderly lady swapped seats with me on the aisle to fit in the seat. She was sweet, and I was no longer in partial vi
I am new to this message board so please forgive me if I am positing this in the wrong area but I wanted to share a rather disturbing incident that took place at the stage door of DEH on Sunday evening post matinee.
Taylor came out to sign for what seemed to be 300+ adoring fans, one of which was an older gentleman who must have been in his late 40's. He was demanding a photo with Taylor, Michael and Rachel whilst puffing on a gin

It has a cult following, and most of the teens who love it so dearly don't actually see Broadway shows, they watch bootlegs. The audience for this show would never be able to support a full, commercial Broadway run. Unless something weird happens and the Off-Broadway production becomes like Hamilton, there's no chance."
This is so clearly a troll account and ya'll are really falling for this. Lol."
You'd be surprised how many kids in high schools are like this. Once somebody told me Lin was their father and Hamilton is the longest running show of all time...

Andrew Lloyd Webber... And many others. Listen, I know people like you. I'm young enough to know kids like you yet wise enough to understand why you hhink like this.
So, you recently got into musicals through Hamilton. You took the Hansen rou

But in Broadway's Frozen, Anna's Father is Black and her mother is White.....so a Black Anna would need no explanation.........cuz it makes sense. Having White Elsa and White Anna is actually what doesn't make sense, when you look at how they cast the p

I haven't seen any Evan that was mildly attractive, despite being white. There's no excuse NOT to have a POC Evan.
Was Kristolyn Lloyd making a dig towards DEH? Apr 19
2018, 04:43:10 PM
I feel like there is a lack of POC in DEH, and also in Bandstand. Lloyd is absolutely correct in digging at DEH after leaving it. I remember last May when Dear Ethnic Hansen became a hashtag for a few weeks, then it disappeared after that. I'd love a sensation mixed Hansen, with a black loving mother. It would be amazing to see a Latino Connor, or an Asian Jared. I was representation! It would humanize them just a bit more. People demonize mixed or latino people but maybe these roles would see w
Lack of LGBT Protagonistse Apr 18

As a part of the racial minority, I see these issues. I'd love a show (play or not) with a mixed bi lead who goes out and makes change in their community through small actions for the good, and while these identities pose obstacles, it's not the main storyline. And the message you leave with is love and acceptance for all, (a CNN hero type of person-- doesn't save the world but helps enough people that they're a good person)
