sabrelady said: "Kismet- could only work now as a concert. I love "Gesticulate" ( I know it was done but I still like it)
Maybe time for Allegro again ( maybe Sondheim can fix it finally!)
Sideshow? I think it would work better as a concert.
And I know I'mm gonna get booed- Working. Again I think it would work well as a concert.
Working was just done last summer as part of their off-center pr

Jordan Catalano said: "I kind of want Encores to do “Funny Girl” because I have a feeling it’s the only way we’ll see a production of it."
That's a great idea for their gala show--that way we can get a big name who may no be able to commit to a long run.

I feel like Encores is the only place I'll ever see Red Head or Take Me Along.

This was the first show I ever fell asleep during. The second act was so so dull. The only song I remember at all is "Follow Me."

Micaela Diamond is my ideal choice.

* Sound Inside and particularly Mary Louise Parker were highlights of the season. Makes no sense.
*No Jagged Little Pill for Best Musical and no Inheritance for Best Play? Is there some eligibility thing I am missing?
* thrilled to see some love for David Alan Grier and Soldiers Play in general
* Jonathan Groff snubbed but Tammy Blanchard included in a very stacked category

SOME LIKE IT HOT Musical to Have World Premiere in Chicago in 2021 Mar 9

ChgoTheatreGuy said: ""The First Wives Club" and "The Cher Show" do not count as drag queen musical premieres in Chicago. I think that "Sugar" would be the definitive version of "Some Like it Hot". What will the new writers/lyricists bring to this show that the original people didn't?"
I think they meant Tootsie and Kinky Boots.

I loved this. The whole thing was devastating, and the whole cast and the music were excellent. One of my favorites of the season.

This is one of my favorite movies but I am really curious about what they're going to do with the Daphne and Osgood stuff.

To Kill a Mockingbird: Jeff Daniels vs Ed Harris Mar 9
2020, 10:42:37 AM
I actually liked Ed Harris (and most of the new cast) more--it felt like more of an ensemble piece with Harris, and he was a gentler Atticus. I thought he handled the stuff with Scout, Jem, and Dill better.

I read in an interview with the creatives that there are two acts to this one. Whether it's a true two act-er with an intermission is another story (as opposed to just having two distinct parts.)

That's right. Levi is his middle name.

They should just do what Bat Out of Hell did--play City Center for 8 weeks so anyone who had a mild interest in it can finally see it and move on.
