Save Broadway - SNL  Nov 21 2019, 10:46:06 PM
“It’s the Fiddler on the Roof, he just jumped” I laughed so hard when this originally aired and was so happy to see it again tonight! Thank you so much!

Sad News: Ann Crumb has died  Nov 1 2019, 06:30:38 PM
I was very sad to learn of her passing tonight. Gorgeous voice and talent - RIP

givesmevoice said: "poisonivy2 said: "Telling the NY company that the LA company was better isn't all that nice, but a lot of supervisors use that kind of old-school motivation, and Prince was definitely an old-school director."

Can I just point out that this kind of thinking is exactly why there are cultures of bullying or otherwise toxic treatment in a lot of industries? Saying that something is "old-school" doesn't mean that it wasn&


LuPone on Sondheim, ALW, Laurents, Prince and more  Oct 21 2019, 02:21:00 PM
If ALW writes nothing but shmoltz, then why oh why did she want to sing his score for Sunset so damn bad when practically every major singing actress wanted the part?

I love her, and have enjoyed some pretty damn incredible performances of hers - but for the love of God she has got to get over herself.


If Julie Andrews hadn’t lost her voice  Oct 17 2019, 10:56:29 PM
Victor/Victoria was without a doubt a “favor “ to her late husband. She did very well in concert and had already released two “Julie Andrews Broadway...” solo albums when the loss of voice occurred. Had she not don’t V/V I think she would have simply continued on the concert and solo album circuit.

I think we all forget that after Camelot, she found much success doing just that( of course she had quite the movie career) and left the 8 show a week world in her rear view mirror.


Rialto Chatter: Will MRS. DOUBTFIRE Musical Land on Broadway Next Year?  Oct 16 2019, 08:11:37 AM
Thrilled with this announcement across the board!!!

Anyone know who this is as Sweeney opposite Lansbury?  Oct 14 2019, 07:34:14 PM
It is Len - it’s the makeup
And yes - Hearn was his original replacement


Anyone know who this is as Sweeney opposite Lansbury?  Oct 14 2019, 07:22:44 PM
I’m fairly certain that’s George Hearn...makeup is just a little funky

Rialto Chatter: Will MRS. DOUBTFIRE Musical Land on Broadway Next Year?  Oct 14 2019, 10:15:46 AM
I have to agree - McClure is a really solid choice to play Daniel Hilliard/Mrs. Doubtfire. He has solid comedic chops and was brilliant as Chaplin in a less than stellar production. He’ll do a great job with the physical comedy and quick wit, but will also have no issues finding the heart of the story.

Rialto Chatter: Will MRS. DOUBTFIRE Musical Land on Broadway Next Year?  Oct 11 2019, 12:20:23 PM
His character sees his own short comings and failings as both a father and a husband only because of the conversations he has with his ex-wife and children as Mrs Doubtfire. This story has absolutely nothing to do with anything else.

Yes - there are certain jokes and gags that will undoubtedly need to be rewritten or eliminated. But the heart of this story lies in his ability to change only after he sees the world through the eyes of Mrs Doubtfire.

The movie has heart and a


Sunset Blvd - From Movie to Musical  Oct 6 2019, 10:55:04 AM
Given her passing I’m really wanting to watch this special again - has anyone been able to track down a copy of it?

Diahann Carroll has passed away  Oct 4 2019, 12:44:03 PM
One of my favorite Norma Desmond’s and a truly regal woman. RIP Miss Carroll...

Alice Ripley to play 'Norma Desmond' in NSMT's "Sunset Blvd"  Sep 27 2019, 02:08:51 PM
I think her casting in this production is off. I just personally don’t care for her phrasing and on top of that her voice sounds, at least in this video, very strained.

Alice Ripley to play 'Norma Desmond' in NSMT's "Sunset Blvd"  Aug 26 2019, 01:37:22 PM
My only worry with Ripley playing the role is that her Norma will be so crazy and over-the-top to start, she’ll have no place to go.

Patti LuPone's "Live" CD from 1993  Aug 20 2019, 10:41:40 PM
This album is actually one of my all time favorite Broadway performers in concert! I think the song selection is brilliant and the stories and such she put together with Scott Wittman were perfect!

Even though she is not my choice for Norma (I fall into the Glenn/Betty camp) I adore her as a performer. I think this album is great because it captures her at a time BEFORE the Sunset debacle while she was on a high that I think really soars on this recording.


Barry Manilow ‘fighting horribly’ with hubby manager amid Broadway flop  Aug 14 2019, 10:06:28 AM
I’ve seen him twice in concert and both times he truly delivered the goods. I also think he’s at that very difficult stage in his very long and successful career where the new albums land without much fanfare, and special engagements such as this and his last stint a few years back just don’t draw the crowds like they used to. Add to it the ticket price, it’s not a recipe for success.

DIANA TO TRANSFER  Aug 12 2019, 12:42:29 PM
I don’t think this will do very well at all
2020 is starting to look a lot like this past years shows

Mack & Mabel cast recordings  Aug 7 2019, 10:05:31 PM
There’s a warmth to Preston’s performance that I’ve always loved. His last spoken line at the end of “I Promise You A Happy Ending” gives me chills. When I want a better feel for the show itself though I prefer the London recording with McGillan.

Sunset Blvd - From Movie to Musical  Aug 2 2019, 11:46:30 AM
I grew up in Rochester NY and in the mid-90’s you could take a two and a half hour ride to Toronto and see sit down productions (or productions that would announce for a few weeks and just keep extending) of Phantom, Joseph, Crazy for You, Beauty and the Beast, Showboat, and the list would go on.

It really was a great time.
