Is it going to be a big puppet that comes up through the ground, or is this going to be the peak version of the goat from Once on This Island?"

Many questioned Julie Taymor's concept of an elephant onstage, and 20+ years later it still works.  You never k

Remember when everyone here said Laura would never work again!  Maybe Chad Kimball should join this project?

Maybe a Fosse Theater first?

It's too much information at once.  Which in turn makes many of these announcements get lost in the shuffle.

Barbra's voiceover was quite good and sentimental.

And they probably don't have a life outside of work!

Fosse76 said: "Until I hear that the opera singers take a big cut or that executives also drastically reduce their salaries, then it's absurd to think Local 1 should take a reduction in pay. Why should they?"

Gelb has declined his salary since March. Read the article.

The downfall of this film will be Ashford at the helm - if he's still attached.  I mean what are his film credentials?  Peter Pan Live?
Can you imagine someone like Todd Haynes directing this?  
Regardless, I hope they release it in black & white.

^Weirdly no mention of Adam Schlesinger though.

And then does it start all again when we need to get it again next winter?  Sigh.

The are called show curtains.  Check out this classic thread.

Phantom4ever said: "So Cameron confirms the horse statue is being brought in to replace the lowering of the Angel. And he had the nerve to say that that was what Maria envisioned. Wow. It's been well-established that the Angel was her favorite set piece."

Where did you see that the horse is replacing the angel? The horse will feature in the descent to the lair, as it was originally supposed to, but was cut in original technical rehearsals.

They have a built in marketing campaign, with the lead being masked and all.

I believe Eden, Mandy and Lindsay are all of Mexican descent.  

Lavs aren't visible in the professional recording.  But that doesn't mean that they just didn't do the filming without them.

Many here criticize Jordan for "doing nothing" (even though they have no clue what he's up to) and then come after ALW with a pitchfork when he tries anything.  PICK A SIDE PEOPLE!

MadonnaMusical said: "Joe Mantello would be my pick, so long as he has an amazing team of art directors, costume designers, cinematographers, and CGI directors etc."

Why not just film the stage show, like Hamilton did then.

joevitus said: "Kimball said he wasn't going to wear a mask seeing in church."

I'm assuming you meant singing.  Regardless your statement is incorrect.  He never said he wasn't going to wear a mask.  He said he wouldn't let the Governor stop him from singing.

They should add one of those hanging signs underneath the marquee that says "just you wait".

Theater people are bored and hungry for a bangwagon to jump on.
