Really hope we get a recording of this. Their productions have always been top-notch, and even a cast album would be a treasure.

Could A GoFundMe Campaign produce a broadway show Sep 29

people who donate to a gofundme are not investors. just like people who donate to the public theatre are not investors. If they get something back in exchange for their donation (sketchier than with the public) they would not be entitled to a tax deduction to that extent."

No stage door now how will people get an autograph Jul 23

yankeefan7 said: "" Do people think stagedoor experiences would eventually return a couple months after opening or are they gone for years to come? "
If there ever was a time to stop the stagedoor experience it will be now. Even a year from now, how comfortable will actors be getting that up close to hundreds of people. I guess we will see but I bet it will be quite a while after Broadway re-opens for it to possibly return to the way things were before the virus.

What Are Great Musical Roles That Don’t Sing Much Jul 16

Horace in *Hello, Dolly!* comes to mind from pre-2017 incarnations; he only had "It Takes A Woman" then, plus a couple bars in the reprise of the title number in the final scene. The revival added back the cut "Penny In My Pocket" to open Act II, though, so I'm not sure it *still* qualifies.

Food Allergies on Broadway? Jul 6
2020, 01:29:58 AM
Amascar1207 said: "Curious if anyone knows if food allergies are taken seriously when cast in a broadway or off broadway show? In my local theater shows if I have to kiss an actor, I have to constantly remind them not to eat any nuts or shellfish because even a stage kiss can kill me if they eat anything like that. Its always been very embarrassing and I hate bringing it up. If anyone has the same experiences or knows how that all works on broadway Id love to hear about it! I feel li

Your First Broadway Show Jun 13
2020, 04:07:30 PM
Phantom of the Opera was my first show on Broadway (summer of 2004, Hugh Panaro as the Phantom I think). My grandmother really wanted to start exposing me to theatre and figured she would start with the tourist staple.
For tours, my first was the Raul Esparza tour of Evita.

Hadestown disdain? Jun 13

SouthernCakes said: "I saw it and didn’t much care for it. I love “Wait for Me” and the song the girl and the 3 muses sings in the beginning, but the rest of the score didn’t grab me. Hated the falsetto and not a fan of Reeve or his voice.
The staging, to me, got repetitive.
I think they should have ended act 1 with “wait for me” and opened act 2 with Patrick’s song. The ending of act 1 was just not exciting and then the

1776 Broadway revival cast for 2021 Apr 16
2020, 06:52:04 PM
The cast doesn't excite me (I would have loved a reunion of the 54 Below cast who did this ages ago--don't remember everyone but I know Mary Testa, Bonnie Milligan, and Carolee Carmello were involved) but 1776 was the first musical I ever listened to and I'm looking forward to this new take on it.

Show with Most Broadway Debuts Apr 6

MollyJeanneMusic said: "Percentage-wise or the highest number? I know the recent West Side Story revival hasa lot of debuts. And from what I can tell, The Lightning Thief might win percentage-wise - I think the only actor who had been on Broadway was Chris McCarrell."
You would be correct, including the understudy team.

Aaron Tveit has tested positive (BUT IS OK!) Mar 24
2020, 06:03:20 AM
Jordan Catalano said: "My question is how did he get a test if his symptoms are that of a minor cold? There are some very sick people out there who can’t get tested."
Tam Mutu and his wife both had it (as another poster above reported!), so there may have been a concern about whether it was spreading to the entire cast. (Note: this is just my best guess, not intended to be an assertion of fact!)

Seeing her post on Instagram announcing it today was the first thing to make me smile in a couple days. Genuinely wish her an easy pregnancy and delivery, and want nothing but the best for her, her husband, and their child to be.

What’s the last show you saw on Broadway before its closing? Mar 15
2020, 04:25:11 PM
Moulin Rouge! on the 10th. It was a Christmas present for my mom and she didn't want to cancel. Turned out to be a fantastic show and I am in love with Ashley Loren's Satine more than Karen's interpretation.
