Is there any new talk about the future of BEETLEJUICE? Nov 16
2020, 06:36:54 PM
Literally don't understand the arguments here at all. The show might come back, it might not. For those of you so sick of hearing theorization and discussion at the prospect of it returning, just don't participate in this thread or partake in discussion about it.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but literally, what am I missing here? Is it not that simple? That's not a rhetorical question, and I really don't say that to be rude. I promise. I am just so lost as to w

Uh? Is this happening or what? Literally no other outlets reporting on this but given it's coming straight from Korins I assume the ball is already rolling?
Also assume this means a return to Broadway is out of the question.
Edit: OH! Forgive me, here is the BWW News article for anyone interested. Didn't see it

Funny Girl Broadway Revival? Lady gaga? Oct 8

Sonia Friedman recently filed "Sadie, Sadie NY Limited Partnership," referencing the song from the show, so it seems like she is still definitely working on this.

Flying Over Sunset - Previews Thread Oct 4
2020, 09:47:28 PM
Yeah I read that first update about what Erika said and got so excited for a second but it makes a lot of sense that they would've just shifted B-roll around and/or recorded it for the archive. I think a full Netflix-quality proshot is a lot to ask but... DANG, I can dream right?
So so desperate to hear/see more of this show, really hoping they pull through and it sees the light of day at the Beaumont.

Which theater is BEETLEJUICE moving into? Sep 27
2020, 05:47:43 PM
Yeah on a serious note I do not think they've loaded out yet. Frozen did it's loadout a few months ago and there were definitely quite a few pictures of it happening on social media, I'm sure we would've seen something by now.

It's not like these are all one-off's through, they have an entire theatre division so I don't particularly see them just dropping that entire division off the face of the earth and never touching Broadway again, especially if independent theatre investors are able to contribute a l

Space, Sci-Fi and Broadway Sep 2
2020, 02:15:02 PM
I haven't seen it so I can't comment on how applicable it is to the "space" theme but based on it's reception up to this point in time, it definitely seems like Back to the Future (which is going to the West End soon, I think?) is charting a new path for this sort of thing, especially in the sci-fi department. Based on the limited amount of press that's out for the show right now, the tech looks awesome.

Diana going to Netflix Aug 11
2020, 07:38:45 PM
Not a Shubert house, but David Korins posted some photos on Instagram yesterday of him and some crew walking around the Doubtfire set at the Sondheim Theatre. I know it's not that black and white and varies depending on each situation but I suppose there has to have been some sort of occupancy at these theatres off and on again.

Diana going to Netflix Aug 8
2020, 10:44:30 PM
Every ounce of common sense tells me this is completely impractical and impossible... but the idea of a show with such little buzz and advances going to record and release a proshot just to capitalize on the demand people currently have for more professionally recorded shows during quarantine is just... immaculate. If this comes out on Netflix I can only imagine it'd drum up some serious press right now. I know lots of people were comparing it to Anastasia or&

From an audience perspective, Rudin is invaluable to Broadway. He is one of the few commercial producers who regularlytakes risks on projects withartistic promise, despite not being surefire hits. He never fails to assemble impressive teams of artists to elevate his shows. And in fact, his refined taste, and his keen ability to match artists with material,makes him one of the few producers who I'd consider something of a

Is the APOLLO finally going to be # 42? Aug 7
2020, 07:42:39 PM
Kamilah Forbes, the Apollo's executive director, recently talked on a podcast called CI to Eye (link to her episide, skip to 13:24 for this particular discussion...) about the Apollo's programming and the pressure they've gotten to join the other 41. She talks a bit about the natural "comparative" that exists between Broadway and the Apol

$6.3M is a crazy number!
