Is it time for a mass exodus from Broadway World?  May 10 2018, 06:21:04 PM

I get that this seems like we are splitting hairs here on this, but I truly believe that if you call someone a racist (for example), that ends the discussion whether you want it to or not, because it makes someone automatically defensive.

However, if you say that you believe that what the other person thinks is racist (and then hopefully explain why), that leaves the other person the opportunity to step back and disassociate with what was said, so


A RECOMMENDATION FOR ALAN HENRY  May 9 2018, 10:09:02 AM

Alan Henry said: "

With that said, I cannot publicly post comments that have been removed or mention what they contain or allude to because obviously, those would be something we had to remove to begin with.

Why, though? Seems simple enough to me. Delete what you needed to delete, and then replace it with:

Mod: [removed for language]

Mod: [removed link to bootleg]

Mod: [removed for personal attack]

Exchanging Tickets on Telecharge  May 9 2018, 10:02:18 AM

I would also prepare for, since this doesn't require Telecharge permission, but rather permission from two different productions, so what will you do if for example ONCE says sure, they'll refund you, since Salonga will be gone, but BOYS says sorry, but no refunds/exchanges. 

I'm curious. Keep us posted on what happened!

School of Rock Discount Help  May 2 2018, 08:51:15 PM
I think the TKTS app is updated in real time (?), the School of Rock page says it’s not on TDF right now, but is “frequently” at the TKTS booth.

https://www.tdf.org/shows/14273/School-of-Rock

Also just checking: you have the discount $12/year TDF membership for out of NYC people, right? You’re not paying a full TDF fee?

Oh yeah I didn't mean post that info publicly! I meant the initial Telecharge reaching out - post on the thread in question "hi, this is Eric from Telecharge [message about wou


Unusual message from Telecharge  May 1 2018, 09:48:35 AM

I think it would be a little bit more legit if they'd posted publicly in reply to your public post (I know I've seen customer service from one of the lotto sites replying on here, when people have posted about lotto problems, and I think there's a Jujamcyn (?) theatres person who posts on here in response to issues at the theatre, etc.), it's like those companies where, when you complain on Twitter, they ask you to DM so as to stop your public complaining, but I

Aaron Sorkin's TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD Adaptation to premiere on Broadway December 13, 2018  May 1 2018, 12:58:36 AM

The NYT story doesn't mention the filming being definite, and makes no mention of a 15 day deadline for it.
 

The producers offered to put on a courthouse performance of the legal drama in their original filings. That discussion continued Monday with Judge Aaron. One possibility discussed was videotaping a performance, perhaps in advance of a live version to be later put on i


Is this discount website legit?  May 1 2018, 12:37:58 AM

Haha, I mean the entire site (except for the parts that are directly stolen from Citypass, MTA, etc.) reads like one of those exercises where you take a sentence in English, feed it through Google Translate into another language, and then feed it through a second time into English again. 
 

How does it works?
Our system is something like hotel booking system. Your name will


Is this discount website legit?  Apr 30 2018, 11:14:59 PM

Hard pass from me on buying from a business that uses a 'virtual office' address as their mailing address. 

With several years experience and growth, we have now blossomed into a multi-national joining over hundreds of thousands of tourists across world.

Onstage Blog: Casting Actors With A  Apr 26 2018, 01:00:12 PM

I've never met a director who made up a story to falsely depict an actor's behavior. So if you're warned to stay away from casting a certain actor, you should heed that advice. 


He's not a [director], but this is literally the way that Harvey Weinstein operated, by allegedly falsely depicting the behaviors of actresses who wouldn't sleep with him.

Beaches musical (and writing for Bette Midler)  Apr 18 2018, 01:36:24 PM

I understood your words.

I did not understand why the story was included.

"If the themes of "The People in the Picture" sound similar to last season's drama "Indecent," there's even more of a connection between the two than you may think."

Who is the 'you' who is thinking this? Me the reader? I'm one of the handful of people who saw The People in the Picture. At no point in your article did I think "whoa


Ever have someone be rude at a stage door?  Apr 18 2018, 01:31:01 PM

you told him:
- hey, I didn't even know you were in this! but I like the movie this show is based on.
- I'm getting this Playbill signed for someone who didn't even see your performance.
- my mom loved your tv show that ended (10?) years ago.
- you said nothing to him about his actual performance in the actual show.
- then you mentioned again you're getting this Playbill signed for someone who didn't see the show.
But he's the rude one? ok


Beaches musical (and writing for Bette Midler)  Apr 17 2018, 11:21:19 PM
That Indecent story is so random. I read that part of your article twice and I still don’t understand why it’s included.

For someone who seemed to have an issue with how her characters were written in the Beaches films, I would’ve asked Ms Rainer Dart to explain what exactly was happening with her characters in the book Beaches 2. But that’s why they don’t let me interview people.


Show recs for non-theatre loving hubby  Apr 14 2018, 11:53:48 PM

I’m open to more non-theatre suggestions for him. He’s a sci-fi nerd if that helps with suggestions:)

It’s two nights. So for example you see part I on Thursday and part Ii on Friday. (And then each part itself is a regular two act show setup)

"Hirschfeld: The Biography" by Ellen Stern- Release Date?  Apr 14 2018, 03:01:56 AM
wow this sounds like a mess! It did get reviewed before the expected publication date last year, though. Maybe one of those review copies will show up on eBay or Strand or somewhere.

Tyce Green accused of sexual misconduct  Apr 12 2018, 01:49:02 PM

Kad said: "A 17-year-old may be legally able to consent and may even be actively seeking sex with an older person (this is probably especially true of gay teenagers for a number of reasons), but based on what we've seen, it looks like Green was using his position as a teacher/"influential person" to make these connections and specifically seek teenage boys out and badger them.

I would put the onus on Green for not onlylacking the judgment that he as an adult
