Choir = Phys. Ed?  Sep 9 2019, 04:01:06 PM

Pippin said: "These kids are singing John Rutter arrangements of “Lo, how a rose E’re blooming”, not a 6 hour Wagner opera.

It’s not exhausting. I did choir as well as a smaller chamber choir, complete with basic suburban jazz hand box step spirit finger choreo, and didn’t break a sweat once.
"

I’m not saying that choir should count as physical education, just pointing out that it’s not as easy as some may think. I


Choir = Phys. Ed?  Sep 9 2019, 03:27:37 PM
When singing with proper technique, it actually becomes quite physical and can be exhausting.

Spiderman Turn Off the Dark  Aug 29 2019, 01:45:05 PM

I highly doubt that any other theatre in their right minds would attempt a production - regional, college, community, or otherwise. It's a technical nightmare. It would never work. Besides the technical issues, it's also just not that good of a show.

Are there any broadway musicals that pay homage to the 1930s movie musicals starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers?  Aug 27 2019, 05:35:56 PM

It's a movie musical rather than a Broadway musical, but I think that La La Land hits some of these marks and pays homage.



Onion Article re. Arts Funding  Aug 23 2019, 08:37:13 PM
If only...

Best and favorite  Aug 21 2019, 11:47:41 PM
Best: Hello, Dolly. I find it to be the epitome of musical theatre and an absolute work of genius. Especially the recent revival.

Favorite: I’d be hard pressed to nail down one that I like more than any other, but among my favorites are Rent, Ragtime, Sweeney Todd, Urinetown, Cabaret, and Caroline, or Change. All amazing shows in their own right, yet still flawed.


How much are broadway actors worth  Aug 19 2019, 01:14:20 AM
Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick famously made 100k per week each when they did their return to The Producers.

But yes, they are much higher-profile stars than most on Broadway. An ensemble/chorus member will typically make minimum or just slightly above.


Different shows with similar plots  Aug 18 2019, 07:06:50 PM
You Can’t Take It With You and The Addams Family have a lot in common plot-wise.

YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN to tour next year  Aug 16 2019, 08:20:25 PM

Per Playbill. Michael Unger will direct, and new orchestrations will be written.

Andrew Barth Feldman at DEH  Aug 14 2019, 10:51:34 PM

Andrew tweeted today about how he's excited about the new cast members and urging people to come see the "new family", which makes it sound like he will be returning to the show.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe that Anthony Rosenthal did 8 shows a week in Falsettos. (Though the role was split between two young actors for the tour.)

Revival of HOW I LEARNED TO DRIVE with Mary-Louise Parker and David Morse  Aug 13 2019, 04:04:21 PM

It's not so uncommon, but the one I always think of was in 2013 when Kenneth Posner was nominated in 3 out of the 4 slots - but he lost!"

Yes! Another great example. Can’t believe I didn’t think of that one.



Revival of HOW I LEARNED TO DRIVE with Mary-Louise Parker and David Morse  Aug 13 2019, 04:03:21 PM
It happened just this year - William Ivey Long was nominated against himself in Best Costume Design of a Musical for Beetlejuice and Tootsie.

Revival of HOW I LEARNED TO DRIVE with Mary-Louise Parker and David Morse  Aug 13 2019, 03:59:06 PM
I recall times when designers have been nominated against themselves. I’ll try to find a specific example and come back.

Revival of HOW I LEARNED TO DRIVE with Mary-Louise Parker and David Morse  Aug 13 2019, 01:40:43 PM
Very excited for this.

I assume that the Tony committee would approach this as a revival, even though it’s never played Broadway, since it’s a relatively well-known play and had the off-Broadway run years ago?


Could an opening/closing night happen nowadays?  Aug 12 2019, 09:33:15 PM

Back in 2012, The Performers ran only from November 14th - November 18th.



 Aug 12 2019, 01:48:15 AM
I went today. What a magnificent afternoon. Although I’ve seen this film countless times, I’d never gotten a chance before today to see it on the big screen. I went with my aunt and grandmother, who have been life-long Stresiand fans, and they both teared up multiple times. Very worthwhile.

New season scores ?  Aug 12 2019, 01:17:34 AM
Hadestown and The Prom are my favorites.
