Carousel Principals' Attendance  Jul 11 2018, 12:44:10 PM

Anyone aware of any vacations/scheduled days off for Wednesday, July 18? :) 



Riedel on Diana Rigg being annoyed Ambrose misses Sundays  Jul 11 2018, 11:11:54 AM

But was she wrong?



Riedel on Diana Rigg being annoyed Ambrose misses Sundays  Jul 10 2018, 01:44:27 PM

It's possible that all involved, including Lauren, initially believed that she could handle eight shows a week. She probably works continuously with a vocal coach, and she has detailed in interviews about how she keeps herself healthy and prepared for the grind. The show had an extended preview period, and it was a while into the run before she started missing. For all we know, things just got to a point where she needed that extra show off in order to be at her best for the othe

As much as I LOVED that Sher and co did with My Fair Lady, Once On This Island was extraordinary and very deserving of that award.

Agreed, Fantasia was incredible. Frankly, I was astonished at how good she was.



2018 TONY Awards Snubs  Jun 12 2018, 02:56:08 PM

Ethan Slater would have been my choice for Actor (Musical). Either him or Hadden-Paton. I would've also chosen Henry over Shaloub. Not that Tony wasn't great.

I would also have chosen any of the Supporting Actor (Musical) nominees over Stachel, minus Gemingniani. Again, he was terrific with what he had, but the others impressed me more, for various reasons.

Nathan Lane was a fantastic Roy Cohn, but I agree that Boyle was superior.

For the technical awards, I would


Tony Nominees Calling Out  Jun 12 2018, 02:30:33 PM

jacobsnchz14 said: "I just hope to see Katrina Lenk this weekend."

Unless something goes very wrong, she'll be in. Hasn't missed a single show since they premiered off-Broadway, which is insane!

Taylor Louderman and Ashley Park have both never missed a show of Mean Girls yet.

I think I read that Ashley did miss one a couple weeks ago. But overall, it seems like the Mean Girls cast has a commendable attendance record,


THE OFFICIAL 2018 TONY AWARDS VIEWING THREAD  Jun 12 2018, 10:14:10 AM

disneybroadwayfan22, by and large, I agree with your thoughts on the ceremony. My main gripe was with Shaloub and Stachel. Both were terrific with what they had, but it wasn't very much in comparison to their fellow nominees. Hadden-Paton, Slater, and Henry all did phenomenal work with significantly larger roles. Not to discount anything they did. I am thrilled that Lenk won, she was magnificent.



Understudies for plays  Jun 5 2018, 11:42:10 AM

adamgreer said: "I think understudies in plays go on with much less frequency because it’s much easier to “push through” when you have a cold or other minor ailment if you don’t have to sing."

For sure. Imagine being Hugh Jackman during his Boy from Oz run. I couldn't even fathom the pressure.



Understudies for plays  Jun 4 2018, 02:39:09 PM

It occurred to me yesterday that, out of all the Broadway plays I've ever seen, there has only been one understudy: Kelly McAndrew covering for an injured Ashley Judd in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. 

With that one exception, I have only ever seen full casts when it comes to non-musicals. Have you ever seen an understudy in a play? Which role, and what did you think of their performance? enlightenedDrama Desk Awards  Jun 4 2018, 02:19:45 PM

ScottyDoesn'tKnow2 said: "I do respect Spongebob over any of the Disney or movie-to-stage adaptation in the past few years because they really worked to adapt it to the Broadway stage and not give some lazy live staging of the film."

Correct. I appreciate that they kept their integrity throughout the workshop/creation process. I was expecting a mess, but SB was as creative and polished a Broadway musical as I've seen in years.



The 2018 Best Actor in a Musical Race  Jun 4 2018, 09:34:40 AM

I will be a little peeved if Shaloub wins this. As good as he was, Hadden-Paton and Slater are on another level imho. Those are meaty, iconic roles to begin with, but both put their own distinctive stamp on them.



Tony Shalhoub  May 31 2018, 05:26:40 PM

Alex172005 said: "Wow, what a bummer. I had no idea about this. I have tickets for next Friday and suddenly I’m a little less excited about the show."

I can totally understand how you might feel right now. But having seen Shaloub in the role, as good as he was in it, this is a true ensemble cast, with Katrina Lenk's amazing Dina as the ostensible protagonist. Tewfiq is a pretty small role for one considered a "lead" and I am very confident that&nb


Carousel, Summer or Spongebob?  May 31 2018, 11:16:46 AM

SpongeBob is hilarious, heartwarming and creative. I've been recommending it left and right.



The 2018 Best Actor in a Musical Race  May 31 2018, 09:46:55 AM

As much as I loved Hadden-Paton and Ambrose's brilliant work, my choices for Actor and Actress would be Slater and Lenk.



The Official TDF Thread  May 30 2018, 05:20:38 PM

Had tickets to SpongeBob on May 24, they were fantastic. Mezzanine left, third row, but just a few seats from the center aisle. Couldn't have asked for a better spot.



OMG!!!! I just met Katrina Lenk!!!  May 30 2018, 01:18:01 PM

She is very sweet, and shy. Reminds me, I was walking out of Angels in America, crossed paths with Barrett ("Janis" Weed and said hi to her.



Ummmm  May 29 2018, 05:26:05 PM

Awesome!!! Will definitely be able to catch her in the role this time around. 



Understudy-Palooza Weekend  May 29 2018, 03:09:07 PM

Saw SpongeBob last week and the only understudy was Matt Wood for Mr. Krabs. He was absolutely perfect in the role, as small as it is, to the point where I couldn't imagine Brian Norris delivering it any better.
