New Aladdin Movie Trailer  Mar 12 2019, 05:10:31 PM

Withholding judgment re: lighting, etc. Studios' marketing folk are notorious about kicking up brightness and reducing frame rate for scenes in trailers (and worse) TV ads. The shots go by so quickly they don't want audience's eyes hunting for detail in dark or shaded areas. MANY times I've thought something looked over-lit or cheap only to find it pleasing in the theater or on Bluray/4K. 



Ethan Slater in "Significant Other"  Jan 31 2019, 10:35:57 AM

Not that it's really important here, but wasn't Lee Pace "outed" already by Ian McKellan years ago when they were working on The Hobbit films?



Cats parody on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt  Jan 31 2019, 10:31:12 AM

Their version is almost exactly what Cats sounds like to my ears. haha

Was amazed to find myself tearing up at the end of the final episode. PERFECT way to end it. (though I'd rather it keep going!)



Largest theaters that regularly host touring productions  Jan 29 2019, 09:52:01 AM

The beautiful Auditorium Theatre in Chicago has often been used for sit-down productions and tours. It has 3901 seats. These days, Broadway in Chicago uses their other venues more often than this one (which is owned by Roosevelt University.)



RENT Live on Fox  Jan 27 2019, 06:30:28 PM

"If the original case wasn't going to be in this tonight I wouldn't even bother watching it."

The original cast ranges from late 40s to mid 50s. That would be... um, odd. (and I say that as someone in the low end of that range) wink



1 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory tour matinee ticket-free  Jan 26 2019, 03:16:58 PM

Might wanna mention the city, esp. in the thread title. 



MEH-ry Poppins  Jan 15 2019, 01:34:09 PM

Agreed, but doubt they'll be "taking a loss". 



MEH-ry Poppins  Jan 14 2019, 03:55:12 PM

"PS -- What do people think of its disappointing grosses.  It has only grossed $150MM and is quickly winding down.  Since it cost almost that much to make, unless it does well overseas, I imagine that Disney could be taking a loss, which must be shocking to them."

It should hit $300m internationally in the next few days, so I don't think they're TOO upset. With a cost of $130m (plus marketing etc. obviously), it'll probably be a break-even and


Awful experience at Dear Evan Hansen last night  Jan 11 2019, 04:56:05 PM

Above comment... yeah the font is spilling all over the right side of the page, over the ads and other links. No idea what this is saying. 



What to do about ITH professional production with non POC in lead roles?  Jan 8 2019, 12:09:59 PM

I'm still confused by the marketing images... makes it looks like audiences will see LMM in the lead role. frown



Ride the Cyclone at Alliance Theatre  Jan 4 2019, 01:47:00 PM

Curious about this one too... Have seen two thoroughly mediocre shows at Alliance (Tuck Everlasting & The Prom), but have always wanted to see Cyclone. 



Re: Cole Porter in Sleuth (1972)  Jan 3 2019, 10:16:18 PM

Have you asked Shazam or Siri yet? (dumb, but honest question)  



Write  Jan 2 2019, 05:52:24 PM

Suggestions since the original book: Lestat. Doctor Zhivago. Wonderland. Dance of the Vampires. Spider-Man. Bonnie & Clyde. Pirate Queen. The Civil War. Scandalous. Taboo. Big Fish. American Psycho. Cry-Baby. Leap of Faith. Girl in the Thunderbird. In My Life. 



After Glow - upcoming Chicago production  Dec 29 2018, 03:37:17 AM
Reminded me of a 90s Bailiwick, etc. (Chicago) production; the nudity was the only saving grace. (Which isnt exactly high praise.).If Pride Plays... is at the (former?) Theater Building on Belmont, itll fit right in.

Hugh Jackman at the Bowl not selling that well?  Dec 19 2018, 02:12:25 PM

Looked up the ATL show (closest to me) on Ticketmaster, and it seems to be about 98-99% sold out. 



Oklahoma transferring to Circle in the Square...  Dec 15 2018, 05:56:45 PM
Hadestown has NO Sunday performances the first few weeks, and then just has Sun afternoon shows the rest of the time. The lone Sunday eve performance is 4/21 (sadly the week before I’m there)

Oklahoma transferring to Circle in the Square...  Dec 15 2018, 12:44:00 AM

What carolinaguy asked... None of this season’s other new productions do.



HADESTOWN to open in March at the Walter Kerr  Dec 12 2018, 09:59:05 AM
Glad this page exists. I never got anything despite signing up last week.

HADESTOWN to open in March at the Walter Kerr  Dec 12 2018, 12:12:42 AM
Not yet... came here to scope out that very thing. Maybe an overnight email blast?

HADESTOWN to open in March at the Walter Kerr  Dec 11 2018, 02:31:04 PM


Not sure when in April you are going, but there is a 7pm performance on April 21. All other Sunday performances are matinees. I'll miss that Sunday evening by a week, so I'll have to do the following Saturday matinee.

Damn. The Sunday I need is the 28th. Wah, wah.
