Stephen Daldry



Moulin Rouge Colonial Theatre Previews  Jul 11 2018, 12:33:11 AM

IdinaBellFoster said: "Opinions on this could be all over the place. I was talking with friends today about the set photo, and half of us said it’s one of our favorite movies, while the other half said it’s terrible."

I think if Moulin Rouge! were to compete in today's Oscar race, it would definitely suffer from the preferential ballot as it has proven to be a very divisive film. I think it especially showed with Baz Luhrmann (r

disneybroadwayfan22 said: "Any reports? Not surprised if the writing is terrible. The music and direction are really the main focuses in the movie tbh"

Let’s not forget that the film was pretty much all style, no substance.

BroadwayConcierge said: "I'll be heading up to Boston later this month for this one. Soooo excited and really hoping they live up to the brilliant film's legacy!"

I myself was not a fan of the film, I thought it was a migraine to sit through. But with that aside, I am sort of curious to hear what those who did not like the film think of this stage adaptation.



Glenda Jackson to Return to Broadway in KING LEAR, Spring 2019  Jun 28 2018, 09:10:14 PM

Rupert Goold is also set to direct the Broadway transfer of Ink in the spring, so I doubt he'll be available either.



Kelli O'Hara led Kiss Me Kate 2019 Broadway Revival!!!  Jun 28 2018, 05:10:01 PM

GeorgeandDot said: "Frankly, I don't know why they didn't go with Norm Lewis. Great baritone and would sound stunning alongside Kelli."

Norm did play Harrison Howell in the benefit concert Roundabout presented back in 2016. He is also set to play Harold Hill in The Music Man at the Kennedy Center for a few days in February shortly before previews begin.

Glenda Jackson to Return to Broadway in KING LEAR, Spring 2019  Jun 28 2018, 11:08:44 AM

JBroadway said: "Gold could be an interesting choice. He's pretty hit-or-miss, but it has the potential to be interesting. I'd love to see Marianne Elliott tackle this beast of a play. If not her, then maybe Sam Mendes?Rupert Goold? Phyllida Lloyd? Ruben Santiago-Hudson? I also like the idea of Rebecca Taichmann. John Tiffany would be a weird choice for this material, but I love everything he does, and I bet he could work wonders with the play."

Sam Mendes is


Glenda Jackson to Return to Broadway in KING LEAR, Spring 2019  Jun 28 2018, 10:40:17 AM

In her Tony speech, Jackson said she think Joe Mantello found her a worthy opponent.



Glenda Jackson to Return to Broadway in KING LEAR, Spring 2019  Jun 28 2018, 10:35:19 AM

Who else would be a good choice to direct?

Sam Gold?
Michael Grandage?
Jonathan Kent?
David Leveaux?
Bartlett Sher?

Just as long as Jack O'Brien stays away from this.



What's next for the Longacre?  Jun 28 2018, 07:48:28 AM

I don't know how big these planned revivals of Crazy for You or The Secret Garden are suppose to be from a production standpoint, so it's hard to tell if the Longacre would be a fit for either one of them.

Though Michael Riedel did report last week that there were several New York agents, theater owners, and producers coming down to Washington, D.C. to check out the Shakespeare Theatre Company’s production of Camelot.

A BRONX TALE Sets Closing Date  Jun 27 2018, 07:30:47 PM

It was certainly impressive how this show received mediocre reviews and zero Tony nominations, but still managed to run as long as it did.



What if BANDSTAND opened this awards season?  Jun 26 2018, 08:48:31 PM

Maybe had there been five Best Musical nominees last year given the amount of contenders (especially since a new rule was established this year with five guaranteed nominees if there were at least nine eligible candidates), Bandstand probably would've taken the fifth slot. Though I will say how truly stunned I was that Andy Blankenbuehler still managed to win Best Choreography because it had been 18 years since a show that wasn't nominated for Best Musical nor Reviv

I know that Morrible is suppose to have a small singing part, but does Laurie Metcalf even sing?



What Broadway Show From The Golden Age of Musicals (1943-1965) would you most like to see revived?  Jun 26 2018, 03:58:37 PM

Solipsist234 said: "This may be cutting it close in terms of time period, but I have always been intrigued by Show Boat; that would be my first choice for a Lincoln Center revival!"

When André Bishop & Bartlett Sher were on Theater Talk's recent episode covering My Fair Lady, Bishop did mention that he thought about Show Boat, but finds the book to be more than problematic.

The same question I previously had with Cate Blanchett, does Matthew Rhys even sing?

GeorgeandDot said: "I don't know how I could forget Mame. I'd love to see the Hello, Dolly! team do it with either Jane Krakowski, Toni Collette, Tilda Swinton, or Cate Blanchett in the lead role."

Does Cate Blanchett even sing?

I'd also love a Lincoln Center production of Oliver!. I feel like Bart Sher could get into the darkness of the show.

I've been thinking the same thing! I also think Danny Burstein would make an inter


Wicked Movie Cast (rumors, dreamcasts, etc.)  Jun 20 2018, 03:59:20 PM

OnceUponADecember said: "It seems more likely that the film will be shot early 2019 unless Stephen Daldry is directing Obi Wan which apparently is set to begin filming April 2019 and would probably last until October/November."

It was just announced that all future Star Wars spinoffs have been put on hold for now.

ACL2006 said: "CPannullo said: "As much as I love Kinky Boots, it needs to go "

Agreed. I think it's well has run dry. Tyler Glenn is not helping the show, although he apparently is out a lot. Unless they have a name for the Fall, it needs to close up by New Year's.
"

David Cook will be making a return engagement as Charlie Price from July 17th-September 9th.
Wicked Movie Cast (rumors, dreamcasts, etc.)  Jun 18 2018, 06:06:28 PM

Tim Barstow said: "In my honest opinion, Universal Pictures needs to fire Stephen Daldry from the film adaptation of Wicked.

Now hear me out! The man has done some amazing work, but he has never directed a movie musical. "But he has directed stage musicals" I hear you say. Well, movie musicals are a completely different animal.
"

Though one could argue that Joe Mantello had never done a musical before he first did Wicked.
