I have not seen it off broadway, but my cousin has! I recommend the show to her since I saw the tour and laughed my ass off. She does see a fair amount of theatre, but is not like us on here haha. Her report was that the theatre was small and played perfectly for the show, and she absolutely loved it. I wish I had more than that to report, but at least its a good one! I hope to catch this again someday as well.
Joan has a shot since I think Waverly may get the most love out of the play revivals, so the love for that show may jolt her into that category. Such a competitive season for plays though. As someone who hasn't followed them too closely, are the plays generally this strong and competitive? I feel the past few musical seasons have been so weak, and are often more imbalanced in terms of consistent quality of productions, but I have seen a lot of plays this year and while some were better th

Raves? You mean the ones that called her bland and horribly miscast?"

"Betty Buckley’s response when a cell phone went off at a Saturday night performance of Hello Dolly! She stopped the music. 'Is that for me?' she asked, interrupting her monologue, waiting a bit and adding, 'You know, there is a button to turn it off.' When it was time for curtain calls, she briefly mimed talking on a phone”"
They asked a simple question, idk why theres a need for this lol.
Everything has been announced so far for this season though. While its not this exact date every year, this year the cut off for shows to open, not begin previews
See when I saw Susan Boyle leading a group of people it almost reminded me of "One Day More" and she sang I dreamed A Dream so maybe Les Mis. Not sure if they can even get the rights for Les Mis but thats what I thought. I love that they do this every year!
Ya Id say around 2:40/2:45 for me a couple weeks ago. I seem to remember exiting at about 10 of 5:00. Does give a few minutes for late patrons to get seated though.
Ferryman will certainly be here in the spring as well! I haven't seen Josh Cohen, but as others have said Id think The Prom will try and stay open thru the Tonys since it should pick up some nominations, but its grosses aren't super strong either. So it is sorta a toss up haha. Best of luck and enjoy your show!
Seen both. Ferryman is a deep drama thats over 3 hours and has 3 acts but is thrilling Imo, especially the ending. The Prom is non stop light hearted fun, and one of the most heartwarming shows I've seen. Both casts are fantastic as well. You can't go wrong! Ferryman starts at 1:00 tho so hurry lol

I think Hilty would sell well alongside Hugh Jackman however. I do agree though Sutton is more of a "leading stage star". But they could fit Hilty in that bag too. It'll be exciting either way.

Sooo.... I am just throwing this out there as someone I would personally love to see in this and kinda fits the above but.... what about Megan Hilty?"
I said this in the last page!!! This came to my mind first to be honest.
Previews begin this Friday at the Hudson Theatre on Broadway, for the new revival of Burn This starring Adam Driver and Kerri Russell. Im very excited to hear reviews on this one, anyone going this weekend?Â
