Wicked  Aug 5 2018, 10:12:17 AM
Just curious, how did your school manage to get the rights to Wicked? :) i know it’s very limited.

Wicked Casting for 2018-2019  Jul 9 2018, 01:33:36 PM
Just a quick thought, I know Jessica Vosk is our next Elphie. I thought Wicked contracts were for 9 months to a year exclusively with no chance to extend. But I have not heard any casting for the other Principals. Does anyone have an idea about if they will be replaced, and if so, who?

:O  Jun 30 2018, 02:51:17 PM
I have to agree that I think it captures the essence of the show. Hopefully it has nothing to do with financial difficulties, as this usually is one of the first signs that a show needs all the money it gets :).

The Band’s Visit Playbill Change  Jun 30 2018, 01:19:49 AM
As of today, The Band’s Visit has changed their original playbill with color featuring the orchestra band and Katrina, to a black and white playbill with just the hands of Tewfiq and Dina and the title of the musical.

I personally think they have changed it so new replacements can come in and wouldn’t need to change the playbill at all. I liked their original color scheme though.


What if BANDSTAND opened this awards season?  Jun 27 2018, 10:09:29 AM

Mister Matt said: "But CedricOates, what if aliens had abducted Rodgers and Hammerstein the night before they started working on Oklahoma!? Would Billy Elliot still win Best Musical in 2009? Would Paula Deen have stopped using the n-word after 9/11? Would I have taken the role of Marvin in Falsettos in Houston instead of originating a role in an original flop musical in 1997? Would the world have ever acknowledged the hideous ridiculousness of skinny fit clothing? Thoughts."

What if BANDSTAND opened this awards season?  Jun 26 2018, 08:35:46 PM

Mister Matt said: "What if La La Land had first screened in 1939? Would The Color Purple have won more Oscars in 1986? Would Donald Trump have been killed in a car accident before he pretended to write a terrible book and become infamous for being a pathological liar? Would Judy Garland have survived the 60s? Would there be no kale bandwagon on which to jump with smug authority?"

Unnecessary man we get it lol.



What if BANDSTAND opened this awards season?  Jun 26 2018, 01:57:38 AM
Just saw the Fathom Event’s presentation of BANDSTAND and my goodness was it a good show. I feel as if Bandstand has opened this season, things could have been different. A completely new musical is what we missed out on this season besides Margaritaville and Prince of Broadway. I feel like the Tonys would have been different as well.

Thoughts? :)


Cultural Appropriation/Whitewashing  Jun 17 2018, 02:55:14 PM
when non latinos, including african Americans, portray the principals in “In The Heights” excluding Benny. Is this then cultural appropriation?

Just a genuine question. It does say a “multi-cultural experience”. Doesn’t that mean there can be asians, latinos, white, black, Caribbean etc. I di

Genie Casting in Aladdin  Jun 15 2018, 08:54:58 PM
I was just having a quick thought.

Will we ever see someone cast as the Genie either as the Principal or a Standby that doesn’t fit with the tradition of how they have cast the role? Or maybe even see a female take over!

I thought because the Genie is a mythical being, with no gender or sexual orientation, so maybe anyone can be cast in the role.

Thoughts? :)


Ariana Grande Wicked  Jun 11 2018, 04:42:31 PM
Today, Ariana Grande tweeted “tell them how I’m defying gravity”

Is she trying to indicate any casting for Broadway, Tour or the Movie?

If it was for Broadway, I thought Jessica Vosk was the next Elphie.


Robert De Niro.  Jun 11 2018, 09:40:20 AM

It was just a lack of taste. I completely understand the reasoning behind it. But by him doing what he did, the first thing I woke up to was “DeNiro says ‘F*** Trump’ at Tony Awards”, instead of “The Band’s Visit and Harry Potter Win Big at this year’s Tony Awards!”



THE OFFICIAL 2018 TONY AWARDS SNUBS THREAD  Jun 10 2018, 11:18:38 PM
Is there any category you believe was genuinely mischosen? Would love to hear your thoughts and opinions :)

THE OFFICIAL 2018 TONY AWARDS VIEWING THREAD  Jun 10 2018, 11:09:07 PM
I personally wished more musicals were represented. Not taking anything away from The Band’s Visit, but my little heart wished everyone got Tonys <3

Ethan (((((((((((( Happy for Tony! Although when I saw him, nothing he did made me remember him after.
