I respect your opinion, that is what this board is about, all kinds of different views. Anyone stupid enough to pass judgement on yours isn't worth your time. I loved Laura, others don

I almost feel like if a “big name” was interested they would have been already in the production by now. Williams wont sell tickets, they should just post a closing notice for January and get some last minute/holiday profits.
JudyDenmark said: "I'm still scratching my head at everyone who assumes that the Longacre will be available because The Prom is going to bomb. It's been open for a mere two (three?)previews, and has gotten overwhelmingly positive unofficial buzz so far. I get that there's no celeb attached, but what on earth am I missing that so many people haveit closing so fast? Personally I can't wait to see it. I really, really hope that it proves everyone wrong.
Also yes, I think Ain’t too proud will flop only because, theres been zero buzz, no names in the cast, and that its very much like motown. (And the last motown revival had to close up shop VERY early)

I would love to see Jessie Muller, but I don't think she could sell it. Then again, she sold Waitress.
Also, Sher does well with musical drama classics. I don't think Funny girl would be that great with him.

Theres no chance in hell, Ain’t Too Proud will even be nominated
My Fair Lady Ending Oct 22

My take on the ending is Shes finished. Theres nothing else for her to do there, she got her new life and she learned to be a lady and shes moving on.
Angelica_loves_musicals said: "Yeah I agree. I’d be very surprised if BMC won. I feel like Tootsie will beat them. I’m not sure how it compares to other shows but I feel it has a good chance of the tony this year. It’ll at least get Santino a high chance win. Does anyone know how The Prom will stand? I know they had invited dress yesterday and first preview today. Also how’s the featured actor race is this year. I feel featured actress is pretty competitive. <

I meant tomorrow, not today. Ugh. This is why you shouldnt post while walking through times square.
and yes the set is tragic

No. Those are excuses, they had fine attendance untill they both were shut out of the Tonys. I get it people get sick, but theres performers doing the show sick and injured all over broadway, its your job. If Caissie wanted to spend time with her family she shouldnt have said yes to this job. Laura benanti turned down a dream role to be with her family. Hailey kilgore broke her foot on stage and still finished the show and tried to keep going. I have zero sympathy for both of them.
In 2016, polls made it clear that Hillary would win. I don't believe jack until it's official."

Is your source the person on Talkin Broadway who says its gonna be Patti and Hathaway this season? They also claimed its gonna be a limited engagement.
Also since I brought up Talkin Broadway that forum is so annoying to use, clicking on every response grinds my gears.
Cody Simpson to make Broadway debut in Anastasia as Dmitry Oct 18

At the end of the day Theatre is a business, and Zach is great in the role but they need someone to bring in tickets. Cody if everyone likes it or not is gonna bring in more tickets then Zach.
But what Anastasia will soon figure out, is that people wont be there to see Cody, they will be there to see Anastasia and Cody will be an added bonus.
This whole thing seems like it was such short notice. Literally weeks ago they had a new advertisement deal with Zachs face all over th
