I saw the show on the first night of previews after a friend of mine, a huge fan of the show, took me since his fellow superfan who he planned on going with got sick. I didn't really love the show despite the fact I'm a 16 year old queer kid, aka the target audience and should've either seen something else or stayed home but that's besides the point. I had a ticket last tuesday night that I had bought in the "squip zone" right when they went on sale because
I saw it in LA this past June and really enjoyed it, a lot more than I thought I would. I was hoping it would come in this season but I hope it comes in during the 2019-20 season in the spring maybe. The book has problems but I know the production at the Public will hopefully make improvments.
Personally, I'm frusterated they declared Brooks and Beth's charachters in The Prom leading. Yes the two of them have two big numbers each but Caitlin Kinunnen's charachter is really the emphasis of the show and much more "leading" compared to Brooks and Beth's. All that aside, the two of them would've definetly gotten nominated if they were considered featured and I could've see Beth winning, depending on how they declared the Hadestown role's elegibilit

I saw Wicked on tour last night. I thought a few of the actors were just going through the motions and didn't give much effort. I thought Kara Lindsay's performance in Popular was subpar at best. How much are the actors and the performances critiqued by the Stage Directors or even Producers themselves?

Here in the US, there is usually a child guardian and an understudy at theater so I’ve been wondering if Michael Lee Brown is backstage when Andrew performs. I do not know what the cutoff age is though for someone to require a child guardian."
MLB is an Alternate and understudy, so yes...he is there for every performance. There's usually a clause that says on
I've seen Tee as both Janis and Cady and think she's superior to Erika and Barrett. Her Cady is a lot more awkward than Erika's and she adapts less quickly to high school and it's more realistic that she genuinely has never gone to a "real school" whereas Erika's awkwardness wears off in the scene after Apex Predator. Her Janis is a lot angrier than Barrett's. I always thought Barrett's portrayal was too soft and gentle and she didn't really get
Suprised nobody has mentioned Lulu from Waitress. She says no more than 10 words yet the show would be completely different without her brief appearance at the end.
I'm all for people loving and supporting their favorite shows and seeing it many times/making personalized drawings/gifts for their favorite cast member but between this, and the fan who followed Barrett Weed to her house after Mean Girls in DC, it's getting out of hand.

Don't you know? It's illegal to be straight on tumblr! Of course they should attack her!
I kid I kid... The reports on here as of recent were giving me hope for the BMC fans but I guess not.
I always loved the 18+ "Adult Productions" of Spelling Bee and would love to see one in an Off-Off Broadway Theatre. Spelling Bee needs a more intimate setting in order for it to succeed in my opinion. Any Broadway theatre is too big IMO.
I mean if she feels such a great need to give George bread (which I will never understand why one would - he is perfectly capable of buying his own bread) then just give him a loaf from Amy's or something but this is honest-to-god insane. She looks like she can't be older than 16 and she definitely lives with her parents. Imagine what they thought!
