The Devil Wears Prada  Sep 13 2019, 03:55:05 AM

I thank you for your response---the journey from reading/workshop to frozen must be littered with numerous songs/scripts/ideas--and people.

Can't remember it now, but Smash might have been an insight to that process and now Chorus Line might go the same route.



The Devil Wears Prada  Sep 12 2019, 03:32:33 AM

Can someone explain exactly what takes place at a 'reading'.

The obvious is that they all come in, are given scripts, then improvise/are directed?

Do they know the music/their lines before coming in; is there movement; is it only a one time.

It couldn't be like a Mickey/Judy at a piano with one look at the sheet music and they know it word perfect, and also the dance routines.

Interested to know the process. I have been to a studio/journalist preview in


Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf  Sep 12 2019, 03:09:21 AM

DramaTeach said: "I gotta say that Rupert Everett, who has very famously expressed his regrets over comingout because it ruined his career, working with Russell Tovey, a young actor who has played many interesting gay characters and is open about his own sexuality, has me wondering what that dynamic will be like."

I feel Rupert Everett is a gay type naturally and was quite gay pretty in his youth. Maybe when he came out the time was not right because today, gay is OK

I can't wait to see how they set his tits on fire.



Hugh Jackman in The Music Man  Sep 5 2019, 05:10:32 PM

Stating the obvious that Hugh Jackman isn't a great singer. Even he tells that he was told to have singing lessons when cast in Beauty and the Beast.

You don't go to see Hugh to hear him sing-you go for the package and boy is that some package. He has a little bit of everything that just explodes in front of you, and THAT sells tickets.

Sutton Foster has her own very successful market and is totally dependable and incredibly talented. Maybe Sutton Foster as Mame could ch


Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 9/1/19  Sep 5 2019, 03:34:18 PM

I couldn't give a fxxz if a show opens or closes. If it is good and sells--what does that mean? And if it doesn't? Out of our hands baby !

So it doesn"t matter about my OPINION[ but fun to speculate/bitch/argue/get deleted] it's the money men who will decide for us all-end of story.

You tell 'em luv!



Hugh Jackman in The Music Man  Sep 5 2019, 03:22:18 PM

Tommy Djilas and Tulsa probably have the same amount of stage time to showcase their talent.

The frustration of the race card is not as apparent in Australia as for as long as I have been a theatre goer, white was all we saw; we were given no other choice, if there were such. Almost in a way that all major leads until Funny Girl were imported from America.

I'll admit my eyes for years were conditioned to white ballerinas and smooth skinned male dancers but now that diversity


Ryan Murphy Set To Adapt A CHORUS LINE  Sep 5 2019, 03:13:55 AM

JCs pissed because he didn't get the scoop first from all his Broadway friends.

Who cares how it's approached--it's in the 'planning stages' and will change repeatedly.

I'd like the back story of each individual embellished so they almost get a full episode before they merge into the group--everything fragmented until the presentation on that line.



Little Shop Extending?  Sep 5 2019, 02:58:05 AM

bwaylyric said: "I hope Groff and co continue into January or I’ll be pissed."

Um, I think a dialogue between yourself and Mr Groff, and co needs to take place.

Mr Groff, and co, would understand that they areperforming JUST for you, so maybe a little chat BEFORE you buy your ticket would save the pissed off little hissy fit.

Lara Spencer Laughs at boys in ballet  Aug 26 2019, 05:25:01 PM

Absolute innocence; and I am sure he will be allowed to be whoever he wants to be.

EDIT--Oops! That gorgeous photo of the young Prince has gone, for reasons I would LOVE for the Mods. to explain without tying their tongues in knots. That would receive a backlash bigger than on the reporter that started this thread.

HogansHero said: "Could someone who speaks about Tootsie in absolute terms please explain themselves? Or at least what they have said in light of:

1. The fact that the numbers are not that bad, and the show is likely not in the red.

2. The fact that we live in a capitalist economic system.

3. The fact that it is inconceivable that the Nederlanders want the theatre empty, have anew tenant on the horizon, or will not do anything in their power to keep t

Foot and mouth disease.

A stupid, insensitive remark belonging in the dark ages; actually belonging nowhere.

In defense of Barry Manilow  Aug 22 2019, 10:14:51 PM

HogansHero said: "This stuff is not as dense as some seem to want to make it.

I hate to sound like a broken record (no, I don't) but there are no rules and especially not when they are of the sub-ilk of "old sayings." Let's try to break this down:

Backstage gossip about has-been performers (especially fighting spouses): good

Backstage gossip about poor ticket salesand lots of empty seats for said has-been performer's show: bad.
