THE WAVERLY GALLERY Reviews  Oct 26 2018, 09:01:48 AM

GeorgeandDot said: "I'm not sure that it's entirely her job to make sure those elements like lighting and set come together."

I would argue that that is exactly her job. A director's role is to make sure that ALL elements in the production come together.

 



Laura Benanti to replace Lauren Ambrose in MY FAIR LADY  Oct 25 2018, 07:12:57 PM

Dancingthrulife2 said: "Judging from the audio recording "out there," I am not really impressed with many of her choices, which I find jarring and lacking Ambrose's porous humanity that makes this production so special to me personally."

And just when you think the posts on here could not get any dumber...

Michelle Williams of Destiny's Child joining OOTI Nov. 30  Oct 25 2018, 04:14:10 PM
Michelle Williams was in the “Fela!” tour a few years back when it came through the venue I worked at, and even with giving away tickets, the house was not even half full for the two show run. She’s not going to impact sales for this at all.

I am hating the new site so far. I really do not like how non-Broadway shows are included in the Broadway category.

One question I have: were there any noticeable costume/coloringdifferences between Ambrose's and Benanti's Eliza? (Also, I assume Benanti's Eliza is a brunette?)

The costumes were identical to the ones that Ambrose wore. Benanti's Eliza is brunette. I am still on cloud nine from seeing her performance tonight. This is one of


Laura Benanti to replace Lauren Ambrose in MY FAIR LADY  Oct 23 2018, 10:27:26 PM
I was in attendance tonight. I was a little concerned when I got there because I was given a Playbill with Lauren Ambrose still in and stuffed with slips, but nothing about Laura Benanti. However, Bartlett Sher came out before the show and gave a very nice speech that this was Laura Benanti’s first night in the show. They later had inserts available in the lobby at intermission and after the show.

I thought Laura Benanti was absolutely divine. Her performance was so polished and perfect

AMERICAN SON Previews  Oct 20 2018, 05:38:03 PM

I recently caught this, and I found the play to extremely powerful and relevant. The conversations about race and law enforcement were gripping, intense, and packed with raw emotion. The four actors are all giving remarkable performances. I never felt like the subject matter was handled with a heavy hand, which was my concern going in. The play raises some great questions and was definitely eye-opening (for me at least). All in all, another great play to add to the list of great pla

tjones2 said: "Amazing how many “experts” are here. From set designers, to vocal analysts to choreography, etc….. Opinions are one thing. But not having the expertise to back up what you say is another.

As technically advanced as Kong is breakdowns can occur. It’s in previews, which for the many of you who don’t know, a time period to work out the bugs and fine tune a show. Which is why real professional reviewers are banned dur


TORCH SONG (2018) Previews  Oct 20 2018, 10:02:24 AM

I saw this last weekend and just realized I never shared my thoughts. I really loved this. This was my first introduction to the play, and I was swept away in the world of the play and the characters. Top notch acting, direction, and design. The three hour run time flies by. This is definitely one of the only 2 highlights of the season so far for me (the other highlight being The Boys in the Band).



Chorus Line @ NY City Center  Oct 18 2018, 01:58:00 PM
This is one of the most unexciting casts I have seen.

Anastasia or Beetlejuice with 13 year old boy?  Oct 18 2018, 09:08:34 AM

I would go with just about anything over Anastasia. Especially for a  13 year old boy. Anastasia is a colossal and mediocre bore.



Way Too Early 2019 Tony Predictions thread  Oct 15 2018, 03:50:04 PM

BroadwayConcierge said: "King Kong deserves nominations for Scenic Design, Lighting Design, and Sound Design. But that’s it. "

While I agree that King Kong could slip in for a nomination for sound design, I can’t imagine a world in which the scenic and lighting designs will be nominated. The “set” was 90% REALLY bad projections, and the lighting was laughable at many points (the lasers on Skull Island...?)... what could have been a techni

ArtMan said: "I feel the same. If the puppet is the only redeeming factor, then you have to worry about your view and if (like it did last week) the puppet has a malfunction. Not worth it to me, if everything else is crap."

Agreed. While the puppet is impressive, I do not think it is as brilliant as most people on here think. And it definitely is not impressive enough to make up for the rest show which is garbage.
