Rosie Back to Broadway  May 11 2018, 09:17:38 AM

Fame Becomes Me was not a one man show.

You know what I'm talking about.   Yes, Martin Short had a cast and musicians, but it was still considered a one-man show.  I'm sure Rosie will also feature music in her ONE WOMAN SHOW so she's incorporate the same cast and musicians scenario on stage with her.

Santino Fontana end date?  May 11 2018, 08:44:28 AM

Santino is long-gone, girl.  He's now getting ready to play Michael Dorsey/Dorothy Michaels in the highly anticipated Broadway musical adaptation of the 1982 film TOOTSIE.

Also, unless she is put in that spotlight, Rosie isn't at all political nor is her comedy.  Her true fans would expect for her to do a similar show to what Martin Short did with his one-man show FAME BECOMES ME and include lots of Broadway references.  Its a show ON Broadway.  She knows Broadway isn't the place to discuss political topics nor share her unsolicited personal views.  



Rosie Back to Broadway  May 10 2018, 05:36:31 PM

I wonder how big her fan base is? She's lost popularity over time and hasn't really done much in the past 10 years outside of her two stints on The View.

WTF are you talking about?  She stars in the Showtime series SMILF and has 259k followers on her Instagram, which she’s quite active on.   



MAMMA MIA! Film Sequel Set for Summer 2018 Release  May 10 2018, 03:26:04 PM

Donna’s absence is mentioned early on in the film: she’s on tour in SONGBIRD! living out her dream of being in musical theater thus abandoning her friends and family.  



HELLO, DOLLY! Sets August 25 Closing Date; Bette Midler to Return July 17  May 10 2018, 09:48:05 AM

Just curious as to if there is any signage for Bette’s return in the theater? 

For all the obvious reasons, there is no signage at the Shubert Theatre announcing Bette's return.  This would impact current ticket sales for performances with Bernadette Peters as well as disrespecting the current cast in the show. 

This was also the case when Bernadette Peters was announced.  All the signage and advertisement with her name


THE BOYS IN THE BAND (2018) Previews  May 10 2018, 09:36:12 AM

Also, Joe's wife (the name escapes me at the minute) drops her cover at the end and is completely naked with full on.  

That was Mary-Louise Parker (as Harper Pitt).  And technically she was not fully nude on camera as she is actually wearing a merkin which is a crotch wig.

Its the worst photoshopping ever done.  Period.  Its obvious everyone was photographed separately and an intern did an adequate job isolating each person then grouping them in all together to conform to the confines of the layout.  Keep everyone together but let us see their faces was the key instructions given to them. 



Theatre/opera glasses  May 9 2018, 10:49:43 AM

You can do as you please.  I've seen many people use opera glasses/binoculars on Broadway and no one cares.  As long as you don't hold them up over your head when you're not using them, no one will even notice nor care.  



THE BOYS IN THE BAND (2018) Previews  May 9 2018, 10:47:25 AM

And I disagree that nudity at that moment of Boys in the Band is a gimmick.  It established the comfort Donald has with Michael and with his surroundings.

I agree.  This brief split-second moment happens within the first few minutes of the play and instantly establishes their friendship relationship.  In mid-conversation taking place in the bathroom, one is doing his thing and the other is doing his thing (getting into the shower) all while talking. &n

Audtion Song- Bye Bye Birdie  May 8 2018, 03:14:55 PM

Huh? Ann-Marget did not audition for the film adaptation of BYE BYE BIRDIE. Columbia Pictures bought the property just for her. She already had 2 films out by the time she did BYE BYE BIRDIE and was quickly becoming a hot property.

That “screen test” you’re referring to was her original personality audition for her studio contract consideration. BEFORE she ever did her first film.



Bernadette in all performances?  May 7 2018, 10:06:27 PM
I was informed by several cast members she takes Mondays off.

The Anita portion of “A Boy Like That” from WEST SIDE STORY

”Hurry Back” from APPLAUSE

”Class” from CHICAGO

”So Long, Dearie” from HELLO, DOLLY!

Meryl’s image has been featured on all the artwork for the film that features photos of the cast.  That poster isn’t the first or only one, amigo.  



"Frozen" Toddlers  May 7 2018, 01:14:21 PM

From my past experience, I was excited to start exposing my niece and nephew to Broadway like my parents did when I was a kid. My first show on Broadway was the original 1972 Broadway production of PIPPIN. I became obsessed with not just Broadway but Bob Fosse as well. I was 7 years old.

I started taking my niece and nephew to see Broadway shows when they were 5 years old. Paying top dollar at that time (no children prices). I must have taken them to about 10-15 shows. Sadly, every phu

Lea Michele Back To Broadway?  May 6 2018, 05:13:52 PM



Lea Michele Back To Broadway?  May 6 2018, 04:38:41 PM

It’s funny. I remember Gaga from the clubs backin the day. When she hit it big I was so annoyed by her because the gimick overshadowed her talent as a musician.

By her own admission, the costumes and the "gimmick" has always been intentional and is her homage to the long-gone 70s rock n' roll opulence which were the norm from Cher, David Bowie to Elton John.  She fully embraces the hit-or-miss response as it has always been purely intended to


Betty Buckley  May 6 2018, 12:07:02 PM
Kinda curious how Buckley will endure the physicality of Dolly Levi Gallagher. Both Midler and Peters are physical powerhouses in their early 70s (both are fit beyond words) but I remember clearly Buckley had issues with the staircase during her time in SUNSET BLVD over 20 years ago. She wore a special knee brace girdle under her costumes.
