That’swhat I was assuming. I think all of this couldstart creating bad word of mouth in the industry, which won’t help them with critics and the Tonys. They better ensure this doesn’t turn into another Spider-Man situation.

For Colored Girls.... Firing Dorector  Dec 23 2019, 04:49:15 PM

Wow. A lot of questions about this. 

First, can you link to a source?

Second, were there rumors of this going to Broadway? This is the first I'm hearing of this, but I wasn't following any threads on the show.

Third, have these fights and disputes already been discussed in the rumor mill? This is the first I'm hearing of them as well. Anyone have a source on this? 

If all of this is true, and if they were to go to Broadway, they could the

Rebel Wilson - Broadway?  Dec 23 2019, 01:33:30 PM

Character-wise (not necessarily singing-wise), I could see her in Leslie Kritzer's role in Beetlejuice, Sarah Stiles' role in Tootsie, or Ado Annie in Oklahoma. All of which are closing, I realize. I'm just speaking theoretically.

The rain is definitely going to contribute to injury and illness. Add in the long, gruelingpreview/rehearsal period, and they’re going to need a deep bench.

ModernMillie3 said: "Why would you ever take the Metro North when it stops so far from Bard? Weird. Obviously, you'd take Amtrak."

 

Not sure if you were being sassy toward me, or Google Maps. But I was just saying what Google Maps told me. I haven't ridden Amtrak at all in the few years that I've been living in NY. And while I've taken MetroNorth a lot, I've never had to go up that far. So I wouldn't know. 


A Daniel Fish Most Happy Fella?  Dec 20 2019, 08:46:10 PM

I'll have to look into that. Google Maps was showing me 5+ hours. First on the MetroNorth up to Poughkeepsie, then transferring to a bus. 



A Daniel Fish Most Happy Fella?  Dec 20 2019, 08:15:40 PM

I’m really excited for this, personally. Most Happy Fella is one of my favorite musicals, and it holds a very special place in my heart because I was in it a couple years ago, and it was a wonderful experience. I’d love to see a really creative production of it.

My only disappointment is that I have yet to have the opportunity to see a live production of it (not counting the one I was in, obviously), and so I was hoping I’d get to see it done traditionally before seeing an experim


WEST SIDE STORY (2019 Revival) Preview Thread  Dec 20 2019, 05:35:43 PM
I think what some people may not realize is that European directors often have very similar approaches to theatre as each other - at least compared to more traditional American theatre. Things like modern dress, live-stream video, stripped down staging, drastic re-interpretations of texts etc. are all trends that are very common in European theatre. I find that a lot of productions I see from European directors - including Van Hove - often feel kind of the same as each other. And I actually don’

Wha??? Are they reimagining it?


Yes they are. It's set in present day rather than 1957.:


 

I think Skip was saying that unless they re-imagine it again (from what they're currently doing), they production won't be able to work out its "kinks," because Skip did not personally enj

Claire Foy and Matt Smith to Reunite, on a Brooklyn Stage  Dec 17 2019, 10:17:56 PM

Very excited about this!

It's not totally out of nowhere - this production already played the Old Vic in London, and high-profile British production often play BAM. That said, I wasn't expecting it, and it's a very exciting surprise!

little_sally said: "I thought she was awful in Days of Rage but nobody came off well in that."

 

Wild. I thought that was one of the strongest ensembles of last season. I thought everyone in that cast (except maybe Odessa Young) gave really strong performances.

Anyway, different strokes I guess.  

 



CSC Assassins update  Dec 17 2019, 02:24:19 PM
But you didn’t see her in Days of Rage or Moscow Moscow Moscow? Those were the 2 productions that really changed my mind about her.

Just curious: what have you seen her in?

Her performance in This is Our Youth was infamously terrible, but since then I think she’s really turned everything around. IMO she gave a strong (but not amazing) performance as Mary Warren in the Crucible. And then
