This is my point exactly. The show is doing great in the box office. This feels very preemptive - also, as someone who vaguely grew up alongside Cody Simpson (same age as him, he did a show at my middle school when we won a contest, etc), I doubt he will work as stunt casting. Yes he has a lot of social media followers but if you look at his actual engagement, a lot of those aren't actively eng
Had a discussion with my roommate today regarding the consistently "empty" nature of several Broadway spaces, and it got me thinking. Regardless of why some of these spaces aren't immediately grabbed by incoming productions (location, size of audience or backstage, etc), which of the commonly cited empty/fast turnover theatres (Cort, Belasco, Longacre, Lyceum, etc) is your favorite and why?
I'm going to have to say the Cort - it is such a charming theatre, and while t
Any updates on this? With the parody musical of the same title opened up at St.Lukes on 47th I'm curious to see if this could possibly have any legs with a shifted title.

It has been cut from all productions outside of the Broadway, and replaced with a reprise of Paris Holds the Key for Anya - they aren't doing it in Madrid either than the creative team has confirmed its removal going forward.

$10 in a box between ATPAM and Anastasia - no idea how the box ended up there. I grabbed it at about 4:15pm and it was the only signed poster in the box, and the only GD. No idea if others went earlier in the day.
The only way I even knew the box was there was because my friend tripped over it looking at a denim jacket from Lips Together Teeth Apart.

I also got a Once Christmas ornament for free somewhere because they had 2 boxes of them that were forgotten to be put out at the end of the day. Was hoping for more things like this then. Heck, nobody was even very enthusiastic about end of the day sales, which has happened in past years.
I had a fantastic time at the flea this year - the weather was much more pleasent than last year, and the crowds were malleable compared to last years insane lines (even themost crowded shows this time around seemed streamlined). I managed to grab all of these for under $150.
Original Window cards from Escape to Margaritaville, Bonnie and Clyde, and a full original cast signed Groundhog Day.

Jordan Catalano said: "Encores is doing the show again in February."
Well then! I completely missed that press release - thank you for the quick reply Jordan, I'm going to have to work on getting a ticket. Any word on casting?
I've been relistening through Berlin's show of the 40's and 50's as of late, and Call Me Madam in particular has been in heavy rotation for me - while not a perfect show, the score truly holds up beyond nostalgia, and with the political satire angle, I think it could do well in today's revival market.
Encores had a production in the mid 90's starring Tyne Daly in Ethel's role, but it unfortunately didn't go further than that - I would love to have

It isn't RH, but I would love to see the most recent production of Hammerstein's Carmen Jones that played over this past summer get a larger life - they took a piece with a lot of thwarted potential, and managed to elevate it to what I think OH2 was getting at in the original production.
