West Side Story Revival Marquee-What are they thinking?  Aug 23 2019, 08:49:55 AM
you Guys realize that, outside of broadway nerd circles, NO ONE knows who Ramasar is....... like NO ONE.

And if they hear of the disgusting ways he’s handled himself, they will most likely have already bought their tickets. They won’t care.

I agree that it’s not a good look if this production is trying to prove how woke they are, but that’s their issue and all will come out in the wash.

his casting will not affect the box office whatsoever.


What composer has the best singing voice?  Jul 28 2019, 05:08:45 PM

Most of the suggestions here were already pop stars BEFORE they were composers.... so obviously they are going to have nice voices. I guess that’s fine because the rules weren’t set, but I’d imagine this is more about people who are more known for their composing then their singing.....



What composer has the best singing voice?  Jul 28 2019, 03:18:32 PM
My vote goes to Adam Guettel.

Saddest musical?  Jul 27 2019, 07:18:45 PM
The Scottsboro Boys- one of the saddest true stories in American history makes for a truly sad musical.

Mixed reviews in- is Moulin Rouge a Big Far Hit?  Jul 27 2019, 01:54:43 PM
Yes. I was referring to the person above me.

I think right now people are used to super long runs for super blockbuster shows (mormon, Aladdin, Beautiful), but long runs like that are recent phenomena.

No one should look at Matilda and say word of mouth didn’t work for that show. If it REALLY didn’t have word of mouth, that show would have had a year run at most, IMO.

Sometimes shows can walk that line of being successful without lasting a decade on broadway. “Waitre


Mixed reviews in- is Moulin Rouge a Big Far Hit?  Jul 27 2019, 01:10:56 PM
Why are people citing Matilda as a failure? It had an almost 4 year run on broadway. That’s a very healthy, respectable run, especially considering there were quite a few other musicals shooting to win the family demographic for that time.....

re: The 'Du Crew/fANADu's (XANADU Fans Unite!)  Jul 12 2019, 11:52:46 AM
God I loved this show. Still one of the funniest shows I’ve ever seen!!!


“Bitch......... you don’t know my life” 😂😂😂😂


FRANKIE AND JOHNNY closes July 28th  Jul 10 2019, 09:43:11 AM
I saw it last night, the first performance after the closing notice. Bought a mezz ticket. It was 90% empty. A very depressing sight. I moved up to the second row center, so my view was fantastic.

I wasn’t familiar with the play, and I enjoyed it, I think mostly due to the fantastic performances by McDonald and Shannon.

But the saddest part of the night was during the curtain call. With the knowledge of the closing, Audra looked up into an empty mezzanine and I saw so much sa


Into the Woods tonight at Town Hall  Jul 9 2019, 12:08:12 AM
I was there too and agree with everything Jordan said, except you overestimated how much McGovern got correct. Poor thing was completely out to sea...... or lunch..... I’d say maybe she got 20% out.


This was a long night but a pure delight. I’m so glad I went!!

The orchestra sounded beautiful, and they sounded fantastic as a whole chorus.

Ripley was a glorious mess, but damned if she didn’t make cry during the Witches Lament. She was otherworldly singing those s

Multiple times.

Just keep playing everyday. You will eventually win. I promise!


Vegans and Broadway  Jul 2 2019, 09:18:24 PM
“Cats” must be a nightmare for her.

Is the choreography for THE PROM bad?  Jun 29 2019, 12:47:30 PM

I don’t think the choreo is bad, but it IS busy. And overstuffed. But that doesn’t bother me. Sometimes it’s fun to have the choreographic kitchen sink thrown at you. 

Also, choreo doesn’t always have to further the plot along. As said in “something rotten”- it doesn’t really advance plot or character, but it’s entertaining. “Too darn hot”’s choreo doesnt tell a story.... “turn it off” doesn&rsq


INK Reviews  Jun 29 2019, 12:40:44 PM
I was there last night too, uncage. I agree with mostly everything you said - can’t believe Miller was not given a nomination for this. He was incredibly good.

I loved just about every moment of this play. Goold’s direction was superb, and it was an honest joy to spend 2.5 hours with the staff of the newspaper.

But I was confused that Carvel won the Tony after seeing this. Don’t get me wrong, he was delivering a well crafted, subtle performance, but I was expecting something.


Kiss Me Kate LOVE  Jun 28 2019, 10:16:19 AM

mamaleh said: "Agree that Warren Carlyle should have won the choreography Tony. Dare I say KMK should have triumphed over OK!? I dare. KMK was intelligently updated without changing anything of substance. So glad the spanking was removed. On the other hand, in my opinion OK! went too far in its final minutes. An interesting, darker tone went full-tilt nuts and completely subverted the notion of justice and what seemed to be the original intentions of its creators. Whatever its faults

"I like Hadestown a lot but can’t for the life of me understand why Andre is getting so much attention. He’s a narrator. That’s a really easy part. There’s no arc or acting involved-it’s just singing. "

 

That's kind of a crappy statement. maybe you think it's easy because he MAKES it look easy. When you are doing an emcee/narrator role, you are not hiding behind a character to influence your choices. You have to rely

OCTET at Signature Theatre  May 5 2019, 11:45:58 AM
Honest question- if I hated the music in Great Conet, am I gonna hate this?

I saw great comet twice and the score just wasn’t for me....... which is weird because that kind of stuff is normally right up my alley, but something about just made me hate it.....

Should I take a chance on Octet?


Head Over Heels - Commentary on the Snubs  May 1 2019, 02:09:22 PM
I was rooting for you, but stopped reading after “Peppermint deserves a nomination”.

Many things about this production were deserving; Peppermint is not one of them.


I would have given them a nomination for:

Bonnie
Lighting
Orchestration
Choreography
Costumes


I wish they would have opened in the last two months, rather than last summer.
