It’s basically just that: a reading. The cast sits at a table and reads the script. The composers perform the musical material though on a few occasions an actor may have been given their material in advance and will sing their material, though this rarely happens. Rarely will any choreography be performed and if it is, the choreographer’s assistant with a few dancers will show an idea of what is being considered by the choreographer. Actors are hired to just read the script, which they see

Huh? She keeps returning to CHICAGO frequently. She's involved doing other projects, most notably with her husband Terrence McMann, but she still dances and performs.
CATSNYrevival said: "It’s a little black dress and they’re generally custom made for each actress and sometimes redesigned for a specific actress or production. You can’t buy it anywhere but a generic plain black dress is not hard to find."
With all due respect, you’re referring to the costumes for the 1996 Broadway revival of CHICAGO. Bob Fosse’s original 1975 Broadway production DID have costumes (and sets) and Velma (as well as
Are you sure? I would swear I'd seen "Jitterbug" on YouTube five to ten years ago. It may have been silent footage, but a sharp arranger could match the movements to the music.
What you saw on YouTube (and on countless home video releases) is the truncated silent color home movie footage shot from the rafters by the film’s composer Harold Arlen. The song was pre-recorded in studio so the track does survive and was used on the silent truncated foo
QueenAlice said: "The character of Evita is only under the age of 20 for about twenty minutes of the musical, so I’m intrigued what their angle is on this. But please God let this not be some #metoo mis-interpretation that implies Eva’s self destruction was all because of how men treated her when she was underage. I really don’t need to see the “Eva Peron as victim” production of EVITA. "
As written, EVITA is an opportunist and never has

Due to her back-to-back crazy schedule doing THE GARRY MOORE SHOW and also appearing on Broadway in ONCE UPON A MATTRESS, Carol Burnett once actually fell asleep on stage while pretending to be sleeping on top of the piled up mattresses. The stage manager had to shout from the wings for her to wake up.
Can’t ANYONE else helm theatre properties on film? Like whyyy does it always have to be him?
Obviously not. He’s an enormous fan of Broadway plus Hollywood and just about anything really, therefore he creates any project he wishes as no one else is. The huge success his projects have received, from viewership to critical acclaim has given him the industry credibility that he can produce anything he wishes and since EVERYONE wants to work on hi
It's about the development of A CHORUS LINE, hence the 10-parts. If you read the countless books on the history of the show, it went thru an extensive workshop period. Just the initial midnight meetings that prompted the creation of A CHORUS LINE could cover 3-episodes alone. Plus, all the hoopla that surrounded the show once it arrived on Broadway and the crap the original cast had to endure (selling the rights to their likeliness for $1 while Bloomingdales was selling
Fan Mail to actors in Touring Shows? Sep 2

You look at the tour schedule and get the address to one of the theatres it’ll be playing further down the road. You simply address it to the actor’s name and CATS National Tour so the theatre knows it’s for someone with that tour and will hold it till they arrive. The CATS tour personnel handles correspondence so they will know who it’s for and give it to the actor.

Based on the word-of-mouth coming from Telluride, her Best Actress Oscar nomination is in the bag. Winning it is another story, but the nomination is 100%.
Wick3 said: "I know each theater/production may do things differently, but for past-dating tickets I just thought the box office would look at the ticket scan report just to make sure that ticket/seat wasn't scanned at that performance."
Precisely. That is the whole reason everything is barcoded. Everything these days is barcoded and scanned which is how inventory is quickly monitored. Quicker and more efficient in getting data in seconds o

The staging/set design of the 1986 Broadway revival of SWEET CHARITY was a recreation of the original 1966 Broadway production. Costumes were different.
Based on the sound of the musical instruments, the original 1986 Broadway revival cast recording of SWEET CHARITY was obviously recorded digitally. Just listen to the Overture and it just sounds flat due to the sharp digital sound.
Lynnie54 said: "What time does the preshow start? I have can can seats and I dont want to miss up close with Aaron Tveit! First time to NYC this will be my first Broadway show!!!!! Im 54 so Ive waited long enough :)"
A few ensemble members are part of the pre-show. None of the principals are part of this which is nothing more than actors just pacing around and doing suggestive posing as the audience is being seated, etc.
