How do you feel about Broadway stars performing with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir? Dec 5
2020, 01:43:31 AM
Believe it or not the Mormon Tabernacle Choir is largely non-Mormon. It’s a paid gig that allows you to travel the world performing... just paid for by the Mormon church as a sort of Positive PUblic relations move that worked very well in Helping to diminish stigma against members of the Church of Latter Day Saints.
I agree their stance against gays is problematic... I actually think we will see them change their stance on gays in our lifetime... and a public protest such as

Yes. Rather than pay the artists they fired them all and said they would pay artists going forward but the artists demanding payment no longer work there.

Joe Mantello would be my pick, so long as he has an amazing team of art directors, costume designers, cinematographers, and CGI directors etc.

Is a white person playing a role Nov 25
2020, 07:27:07 PM
Yes. From now on it is racist for a white person to play a role which should be played by a person of color. Everyone involved with the production from cast to crew to institutions producing the production are holding up systems of oppression.
Whether or not there is ignorance, there is still a system of oppression. It is racist. If you do not call it out, you are racist because you are defending systems of oppression. There are no excuses. You must be anti-racist from now on!

BrodyFosse123 said: "According to Netflix, the film is still scheduled for December 11, 2020. December 4, 2020 is the theatrical release date to qualify for awards season, which mandates the film has to be released theatrically BEFORE being shown on a streaming platform. "
I believe the Academy waved that this year though.

Could A GoFundMe Campaign produce a broadway show Sep 28
2020, 11:54:18 AM
Honey, every single producer is just running a go fund me campaign on a much “richer” scale. That’s the secret of producing... only difference is minimum buy in is a lot higher (usually 25k) and the perks are just shares of profits, produced credits, tickets, red carpets, and bragging rights.
Putting it on go fund me would just mean that it would have to be run as a non-profit (like several broadway shows already are) with a lower minimum... and it would be p

Showtunes that evoke nostalgia and maybe a little regret? Sep 20

Yep. The first time I saw the show I cried so hard at the line “I wish I had taken more pictures.” I literally started taking thousands of pictures the next day. I document everything since then.

YOUNGER to conclude with Season 7 Sep 17
2020, 01:08:50 AM
They actually announced that 2 years ago... which is why the article is weird... season 6 already aired. I think for a while it seemed like they might want more than seven seasons due to it being a hit on streaming... but with the pandemic it looks like they are sticking to the original plan.
Spoiler alert::::::::
Now that everyone knows her secret... the only possible story option left is to wrap up.

Oh and of course “Send in the Clouds,” “try to remember,” “I don’t remember you,” “I don’t care much.”

For regret, look no further than Follies... the show might as well be called “Regret: the musical.”
