I want an August Osage County revival.  Dec 16 2019, 05:23:14 PM

I just finished reading August Osage County for perhaps the tenth time and I really do believe it to be a modern masterpiece. Is a revival due? Maybe give Laurie Metcalf a few years and she can play Violet?



Halfway Bitches Go Straight to Heaven  Dec 15 2019, 03:10:10 PM

This has gotten really great reviews - a few have even mentioned how apt the final line is. Anyone care to share?



Hello, Dolly 2017: the revival that got away?  Dec 10 2019, 06:38:39 PM
I really, really can't see Idina, Kelli or Sutton as Dolly ...

Apparently Jerry Herman gave his blessing to the revival on the agreement he had a say in who played Dolly and allegedly vetoed Reba, Dolly and Patti LaBelle. I think the closest they got to another name was Queen Latifah but for whatever reason it fell through

I personally would have loved to have seen Lainie Kazan though I doubt she was one of the "names"

Your Top 10 Shows This Decade  Nov 26 2019, 05:47:36 PM
I'm useless at ranking shows I've seen and I'm not sure if you mean "new shows" but still, I want to say the recent Hello, Dolly! revival may be the best thing I've seen this decade. An absolutely flawless, electric production I'll never forget.

Halfway Bitches Go Straight to Heaven  Nov 21 2019, 09:00:22 AM

Is there any sort of plot or is it more of a character driven piece like much of Stephen's other work? ("Between Riverside.." springs to mind)

How is Elizabeth Rodriguez? Always felt like she didn't get the praise she deserved for OITNB, was delighted to see her in something new so soon 

 

 



Halfway Bitches Go Straight to Heaven  Nov 16 2019, 09:00:22 PM
Anyone catch the first preview? Looking forward to hearing about this one

A League of Their Own musical - what happened?  Nov 5 2019, 10:03:36 AM
I was watching the movie recently and remembered a musical adaptation was announced in 2015 with Jason Robert Brown attached. I did some more googling and came across this blog post in which Jason says he had left the project and that the role of Dottie was being written for Sutton Foster. Has there been any more on this since or is it dead in the water?

TINA Previews  Oct 11 2019, 12:29:15 PM
Just saw this in London last week and although Adrienne had obviously left the production, I agree with Jordan, an insanely mediocre show. Especially interested to hear what people think of the book which I was surprised was so weak given Katori Hall had written it...

Halfway Bitches Go Straight to Heaven  Oct 21 2019, 02:57:10 PM
Quincy has left the production which is dissapointing *but* Elizabeth Rodriguez has joined!

The Inheritance - Previews  Oct 1 2019, 02:30:51 PM
I've heard a lot of people mention how thrilling the end of the first part is. I've only ever read the play and it's unlikely I'll get to see it... can someone explain how its staged?

Halfway Bitches Go Straight to Heaven  Sep 21 2019, 03:58:10 PM
Cast has been announced. Very excited for this one!

Responding to my own question ... Julia Murney and Anne L Nathan were involved


Rob McClure...Mrs. Doubtfire...  Sep 6 2019, 08:08:44 AM

BJR said: "It's odd so many on here are gunning for TOOTSIE, but same folks seem mum on this."

I’m certainly not one of the people offended by Tootsie but I suppose I can sort of see why people could take issue with it – a misogynistic man dressing up as a woman to get ahead, no regard to the fact he’s taking a role away from an actress etc. whereas I feel like Mrs. Doubtfire is more innocent in a way? Daniel drags up as a disguise so he can see


Halfway Bitches Go Straight to Heaven  Aug 26 2019, 01:59:16 PM
As a huge fan of "The Mother with the Hat" and "Our Lady of 121st" street, I'm very excited for a new Stephen Adly Guirgis play. I believe this had a staged reading not so long ago. Did anyone catch it? Any ideas on who has been cast?

Chicago Film Castings-What could’ve been  Aug 14 2019, 10:22:45 AM
Toni Collette was top of the list for Roxie but ultimately the powers that be decided she wasn't a big enough name. Around the same time, Toni also turned down Bridget Jones to do The Wild Party. Both roles of course then went to Renée Zellweger


THE INHERITANCE to play the Barrymore this fall; Sept previews/Nov. opening  Aug 7 2019, 05:11:41 PM
nasty_khakis said: "TheSassySam said: "Is it still happening?"

Matthew Lopez posted two photos on instagram today of the first day of rehearsal. Just a copy of Howards End and a photo of a sign with the artwork saying "rehearsal in progress."

Strange they're literally rehearsing and there's not a single cast announcement. What could they possibly be waiting on?

I remember reading that in London Vanessa Redgrave didn't join


COMPANY eyeing a spring 2020 transfer at a Shubert theater  Aug 1 2019, 05:07:34 PM

"Can you confirm anything about them? Did they go with a Broadway name or a movie star?
"

Both Broadway names. Bobbie has a Tony Award and won it in the last five years. Jamie was last on Broadway in 2014 but has done a lot of off-broadway/regional and TV/film since then.
"




Casting What Could Have Beens  Jul 29 2019, 08:53:36 AM

Toni Colette was in talks for Sally in the '98 Cabaret revival and then later for Mrs. Lovett and Roxy, both on screen. Ah, what could have been!

I've been on a Theatre Talk binge lately and heard some other interesting ideas. Lily Tomlin was in talks to take over as Violet in August Osage County on Broadway and Joan Rivers mentioned she was approached for the last Annie revival. 

I also vaguely recall hearing Reba was in the mix for the LCT South Pacific reviv
