Could social media and cameo aid in the issue with fans thinking they’re friends  Dec 21 2020, 01:39:28 PM
Honestly, all I can think of is the old trope of men who think because an exotic dancer pays attention to them, it means they're romantically interested.

It’s a pretty impeccable film with tremendous performances.

So it's technically true, just misleading. Another great sign for this project!

There was a reading, but they won't announce the *writers*? That's very odd.

I have to assume this is the project that's been in the works for like 12 years, with various teams and people attached but never coming to anything.

Ann Reinking Has Passed Away  Dec 14 2020, 10:53:08 PM
A shocking and devastating loss. We are fortunate to have so much of her work preserved on film, so her brilliance can shine on for newer generations.

Why would they delete this? He’s on the record with a publication saying it.

It did bother me because it doesn't quite line up with the details and implications of what we're told. I always got the sense that Swallow the Moon was an early big hit for Dee Dee (if not her first), and it was decades ago (the orchestration of "The Lady's Improving" for Broadwa

The cost of this has definitely stopped quite a few people I know from watching this- and the fact that includes ticket seller fees is absurd. It seems to me like this would invite even more ripping and sharing of the video

Why Didn't Annaliese Van DerPol become a hit?  Dec 11 2020, 04:13:30 PM
Because that's showbiz. There's no "reason" why van der Pol, or anybody else, doesn't become a star. The same question can be asked of dozens and dozens of other performers, who are all talented and give good performances.

Imagine thinking that James Corden is on the level of Meryl Streep. It's laughable honestly. The role didn't require someone on Meryl or even Nicole Kidman's level... because you already have both of them. And who else could play the role who has Hollywood experience other than Nathan Lane?

Devoting so much time to Antonio’s Chorus Line is odd.

Telling people they’re wrong with literally nothing to back it up is meaningless.

The Met is not the same as LCT. The Met’s productions are absurdly demanding, with enormous and complicated technical elements, not to mention regular change outs between productions. 

Faucci Says By Beginning of April, Everyone Could Get Vaccine  Dec 8 2020, 11:24:37 AM
Broadway has had plenty of lean seasons- look at the mid 80s and 90s.

Gird yourselves for the deluge of protests and lawsuits against organizations and employers requiring people to get vaccinated.

Should this run as a double feature with Streisand's Gypsy, or Wicked?
