Would you say this about Bette Midler, Donna Murphy, Lin Manuel Miranda, Audra McDonald, Laura Benanti, etc? All of them are fairly active on social media."
1) Midler comes off as a shrill lunatic on twitter, not the best example.
I'm pretty sure Bruce Vilanch writes and posts all of "Bette"s tweets. He has written her jokes for decades, why would twitter be any different? If she's that witty, what did she need him for to be
I love them both and would love to see them together onstage in something that really gives them the opportunity to shine.
Like Gleek said, they toured Summer Of 69 : No Apostrophe a couple of years ago, it was exactly the show you have described! Music, comedy, I loved it...
maybe film it for Netflix...
It's been filmed already, and went out on Epix. You can watch it Shocked at Broadway.com's Fees Jul 19

I’m not sure anyone can blame Paul Wonterek for running a successful business.
I can, quite easily. This "business" is daylight robbery.
They are scalpers/touts/gougers...rip-off merchants...con artists...a scam...
I'm sorry that the person probably bought you that voucher in good faith, not realizing they were handing over money to an unnecessary third party. The reason they continue to exist is because there are a lot of people like her/him, and the name "Broadway.com" lends the site an air of legitimacy it does not deserve. Sad!
Her failure to attend the Oscars was because she had no interest in them, not for any other reason. She took no part in submitting her name for consideration, did not campaign, and was against the whole nature of competitive performance. She couldn't care less about them, and denies having "won" them, because that implies she did something to try to get them.
I wonder if she is scarred by the negative press she received from her absences and now basically does anything she can to be on
I highly doubt she is only ploughing on because of some bad press from 15 years ago that few people remember. What was her record like before Gypsy? Isn't it far more likely that those absences were an anomaly, she had good reason to be out, but now normal service has resumed? She's there every night because she loves her
By the way, seeing as bk's Robert Weide link is two years old and focuses so heavily on Mia's defence of Roman Polanksi - Has Mia ever reached out to her over these past forty years to explain her lack of solidarity with the victim? - perhaps it is worth noting that Mia has indeed since apologized to Samantha Geimer, if only in a tweet.
I get where bk is coming from too, but when he asks us to "research", that just leads me down a rabbit hole of conflicting opinions. I can read one article and lean toward believing Dylan, and another that will make me doubt her - that's why I am (uncomfortably) reserving judgement. It's such a heinous crime, I would want to be absolutely sure before branding him a monster.
It's not good enough to dismiss anybody who finds the accusations credible as pontificating "without any knowledge whatsoever" - if bk would care to click this link, perhaps he might address some of the concerns?
It contends that, in fact, Woody is the brainwasher, and goes into great detail of specific incidents and quotes to back up that assertion. Recommended.
Distinctive Baritone...nah. It's a shame his career wasn't over then. As you say, he was 26 at the time - if that was his behavior as a relative unknown, imagine what happened after he became a double Oscar winner and powerful director of a prestigious London theatre. As far as I can see, the man has an ego the size of Jupiter and he has always made my skin crawl. I couldn't care less if he never works again.
Perhaps you should save some of your sympathy for his vi
Hm, so Anthony Rapp is "weird" and "sexual"? Is that supposed to be a bad thing? Good for him, and even if it were to be a negative, have you ever stopped for a second to consider the harmful impact an incident like this could have on the development of a young boy?
To imply that his "weird"ness is a reason to disbelieve him is utterly disgusting, which of course perfectly aligns with everything we already know about Dave19. How dare you dictate what the &
Yeah, he's definitely one of my favorite film composers - I've been listening to the recent "essential collection" by the City Of Prague orchestra and loving it - so many classics. Hence my curiosity about his ventures into Broadway musicals. I don't expect them to necessarily be in the same league as his film scores, but they surely have some merit.
