Frozen may still be re-selling a lot of tickets at a cheaper rate, but they've been over $2 million for several weeks now, so maybe its not the disaster some make it out to be. By this point in their runs both Little Mermaid and Tarzan were showing definite signs of weakness."
And a reminder... frozen still gets the full ticket price, resellers are just losing money. So it

For the summer, Wicked is running Monday shows and no Sunday shows, for the most part. I'm assuming that's to grab any tourists/out of towners who come to NYC for the week, and who want to see something on a day when most theaters are dark."

That set is everything the little gay child I was when that movie came out wanted in real life. I can’t even.

Also does anyone remember the tweets of the cast of Frozen freaking out backstage one night due to Cassie doing something new and amazing vocally? I guess we know what I sounded like now.
Mean Girls was an odd performance for me. Didn’t interest me at all and was excited for the show... C+
Spongebob was fine, but I don’t find that number to really be a big wow... B-
My Fair Lady was nice B+
Frozen I thought did exactly as they should to sell tickets, and Caissie was thrilling especially with the option up. A
Carousel’s choreography was stunning. A-

As someone who knows zero about The Bands Visit... aside from everyone saying it will win best musical... that performance was so boring.

The buzz on Twitter is big! That performance will sell a lot of tickets for Frozen! Caissie was great! Loved her “girl is gone”

Okay so from Caissies IG story:
The bed from Anna’s room is involved, they have the entire cast... and Olaf... so I’m thinking First time in Forever and Let it Go Finale perhaps?

I honestly think they’d be stupid not to do some song from show into Let it Go. They know they aren’t winning, so all they need to do is sell tickets to the masses... Let it Go will do that. The View performance has tons of views already, now get a crazy tony performance and Let it Go has another viral moment. People will pay just to see that song live.

If they've already performed the hits what are they doing on the TONYS?"
Hygge, of course."
It’s all just advertising at this point. Maybe they’ll do a medley at Tony’s into Let it Go finale or something.

Come From Away would have won this season. The agony of if all when the nominees are almost all tied to IPs.
Gender Based Awards? Apr 27
2018, 12:03:19 PM
Someone earlier suggested just changing the awards to the style of performance I.e. drama or comedy. I think that could be a solution to maintain the same number of categories without using gender.
The example they gave:
Best actor in a musical Comedy - “Bette Midler” Best actor in a musical Drama - “Ben Platt”
Could this work?

Representation matters, and is important. We need more representation of every group in general. How great would it be if it could just be normal to have random minorties be protagonists for no reason at all? Why can’t it just be normalized?
Imagine a show where a character was gay, or black, or First Nations, or Asian and it really didn’t matter to the story, it wasn’t a part of the story persay, it was just a part of who the person was?
