Red Bucket Follies Collections  Dec 5 2019, 08:14:32 AM
^ I know they have posters and playbills. I think the prices were mentioned in this thread somewhere.

Jordan Fisher—DEH  Dec 4 2019, 12:06:11 AM
Sorry, Broadway debut is a better statement. Either way, it wasn’t a lie so much as my own ignorance- which you did nothing to educate me on, so we both lost out- words matter, yours and mine.

Jordan Fisher—DEH  Dec 3 2019, 11:26:55 PM
Hamilton was his big break, everything of note that’s happened in his career has happened since that. Hamilton has no reason to stunt cast, especially not for an ensemble role, albeit a named ensemble role.

Jordan Fisher—DEH  Dec 3 2019, 03:04:46 PM

Key changes are done all the time in MANY shows, that in itself isnt a big deal.

I get that key changes happen, but they're usually reserved for a "name" or someone of note- tell the actors auditioning with the original keys and getting rejected that it's not a big deal. As an Artist myself, I think it's at least worth mentioning. Elphaba has options on changes she can make as are taught to her by the Music Director (many who have played it freely talk ab


Jordan Fisher—DEH  Dec 3 2019, 12:46:03 PM

I'm predicting key changes, no way he has the chops for this role- I like the guy, but even in Grease Live which showcased him at his best, Rent not withstanding, his vocal range seemed to have a definite topping point.



Editing a thread title  Nov 12 2019, 07:44:30 PM
^ interesting point, but while not great numbers, Club Knocked up and Dear Old Shiz do serve a conventional purpose- they’re both scene change songs. They arguably would stop the show if it were to go to black and come up on a new scene, so they both keep the momentum going into the next scene- and the latter gives Glinda a chance to change and not only for the set to change.

Elaine Stritch Biographies  Nov 5 2019, 08:34:02 PM
^its not a very glamorous time in her life, but neither was the documentary- however, it is important to realize that the documentary and “The End of Pretend” she had direct input in- the other book is secondhand and interviews, if you want it from the horse’s mouth, those are the better options.

Elaine Stritch Biographies  Nov 5 2019, 12:08:59 PM

I read "Still Here" a couple of weeks ago.  I was disappointed, frankly.   There just wasn't enough in-depth analysis of why Stritch behaved so badly to everyone.  Her family life was portrayed as loving.  She really didn't have a lot of personal drama.  She made some bad career decisions and maybe that was the reason she drank so much and was just such a demon to people, but that's my interpretation, not the author's.  For some

Bad Shows vs. Being a Victim of their time?  Oct 10 2019, 06:11:38 PM

Hamilton closed every show that season- the only one that survived was Waitress. I think American Psycho was an excellent show with poor timing in regard to when it opened. 



EVITA City center  Oct 9 2019, 04:39:25 PM

What a snooze fest!



Two New Books on Elaine Stritch  Sep 30 2019, 11:04:22 AM

I would read The End of Pretend if you're looking for something more than a Biography or second hand accounts of Elaine. End of Pretend is told from direct interviews with Elaine by her friend John in the last years of her life.  It presents not only a loving fan's tribute to a life well lived in the theatre but also an insight into what made Elaine tick in her own words an interactions with Bell.  I was fortunate enough to go to the school John is the Chair of and was there

BCEFA FLEA 2019 COLLECTORS UNITE  Sep 23 2019, 04:49:30 PM

Grand Total this year- $870, 167

Last 2 years- $906, 825 (last), $1,023,309 (record setting year before last)



BCEFA FLEA 2019 COLLECTORS UNITE  Sep 23 2019, 11:14:02 AM

^ That's a cool find! I wonder if the grand total is going to reflect the pricing being too high- I don't wish the event any ill will, I love it, but it would seem if so much was left over by the end maybe not as much was made in total- I know the big money probably comes from auction items, but I'm curious to see what the outcome is.



BCEFA FLEA 2019 COLLECTORS UNITE  Sep 23 2019, 10:16:23 AM

I thought the crowds at the beginning of the day were not as bad as what I'd experienced in the past.  I too was ready for a backup at Hadestown a la Comet, but that wasn't the case and their prices were a steal for what they had. Overall prices were just too high, I know BCEFA can't regulate that, but they could at the very least tell the people selling next year.  To the person asking about the Curtain call table I was 3 deep and I couldn't see anything physically

BCEFA FLEA 2019 COLLECTORS UNITE  Sep 22 2019, 07:33:36 PM

The closed show table was crazy and people didn’t move, they just stood there. I think Be More Chill could’ve had its own table as the majority of the stuff there was from that show. I got there at 9:45 and was out by 10:30. I agree the Moulin Rouge table was a let down. They had Olivio’s glove for $500 early in the day too. I asked about signed posters and they said they wouldn’t be having any. I too saw signed Cher Show posters everywhere and I can tell u even t

BCEFA FLEA 2019 COLLECTORS UNITE  Sep 16 2019, 09:57:27 AM

A friend asked me an interesting question- does anyone know if they take checks for payment? I know they do during collections at theatres, but I can't say with any certainty they do at the flea.  Anyone know?

Best Scene Changes  Aug 28 2019, 12:18:47 PM

I've always been a sucker for the Ozdust Ballroom scene change in Wicked when the green lights pop on the proscenium- simple but effective. 



Jonathan Groff Alternate for Little Shop?  Aug 17 2019, 10:53:22 AM
“They would have announced him as his alternate in November in the article. That didn't happen. So, I doubt it's him. An understudy is not an alternate.”

I think anyone on here would know the difference between alternate and understudy. Let me, once again, point out that the thread name is misleading and the production has NOT announced that he will even have an alternate. It’s mere speculation on a Broadway message board. Until they say otherwise, expect that if Groff is out you will s
