Question about capitalization for Broadway transfers  Aug 19 2019, 01:45:19 PM

My go to is "The Business of Broadway" by Mitch Weiss and Perri Gaffney    https://www.amazon.com/business-broadway/s?k=business+of+broadway

What performance(s) do you wish there were archive/bootleg footage of that you’ve never been able to find?  Aug 2 2019, 03:25:29 PM

I wish I could 'resee"shows I saw in the 70s when I first started going to the theatre

- Liza understudying Gwen Verdon in Chicago

- Reinking and Grey in Goodtime Charley

- Pearl Baily in Dolly

- Hope Clarke and Micki Grant in "Don't Bother me I can't cope"

- Morse, Joyce and Roberts in "Sugar"

 

 

 



So is it okay for audience members to sing along during musicals?  Aug 2 2019, 03:21:52 PM

NO!!!

 

2 exceptions:

1) you are asked to join in (example:"No Time at All" from Pippin)

2) during the megamix for a jukebox musical where, again, your asked to join

 

 



Charlie just canceled Charlote tour stop  Jul 18 2019, 10:37:29 AM

 

 

Is the tour still on?

 

Not sure if there a scheduling issue (which seems odd but that is what they are saying), but they just canceled Charlie from our Charlotte season and added "What the Constitution Means to Me" (a weird substitution for a big family musical, but that's a different story)



How much longer for Pretty Woman ?  Jun 27 2019, 03:48:14 PM

I cant paste the picture, but in 2014 in London I have a photo from the Novello Theatre where, under the marquee for  Mamma Mia there was a banner saying "You already know you're going to love it"

So is it okay for audience members to sing along during musicals?  May 17 2019, 02:31:28 PM

White gatekeeper/??seriousl

anyway the answer is No, No, No, No.  I did NOT pay to hear you sing. It is rude.

 

of course, unless it is "no Time at All" and Andrea Martin is asking you to join in.  Then you must 



Actor or Actress?  Mar 28 2019, 10:20:38 AM

yankeefan7 said: ""Popular usage isn't going to change as long as every single award show distinguishes between "Best Actor" and "Best Actress". Not even Meryl Streep (whom I have heard call herself an actor) can change the world alone."

Good point. It should be changed to "Best Female Actor" or just have one award with men and women combined.

when does the CIS-gendered view end?

Somehow I still love the show.

interesting that that the ones putting their all into dress are folks who were on Broadway (BVD, Fisher, Hudgens, Keala ) ....

 

btw  I hate “over the moon” and thought this staging was over the top but agree it was a highlight

CallMeAl2 said: "Why do people keep calling for understudies? Who uses understudies for a one-night-only event? You hire understudies so you can run. A show doesn't even put understudies on their feet until after it opens. For a special event you adapt - which is what they are doing.

By the love - love the set! Very cool. Ensemble is great. Mark, Roger, and Tom Collins all doing well. We'll see how Maureen does,

I am sure that conversatio


RENT Live on Fox  Jan 27 2019, 08:46:35 PM
Wow some of the vocals are harsh. Agree that BVD and Fisher are the only ones holding their own.

Debating recording (since it is recorded already) and watching some other time-but I would just put my DVD of the last performance in instead


RENT Live on Fox  Jan 27 2019, 08:20:41 PM

So it sounds like Act 1 is 100% prerecorded and Act 2 will have some live and some prerecorded


Understudies folks. You need understudies or you are going to have to forego the live! Hype

Why did it say previously recorded?

Buckley out again in Dolly  Dec 3 2018, 11:08:34 AM

Niles Silvers said: "It's a tour company, for Lawd's sake! Let the understudies get their experience;I doubt many people will even notice the difference. There's also the business of pacing yourself during a long haul. She's a pro and knows what's good for her."

 Huh?  This 'tour company" charges (almost) the same as Broadway prices.  The show, as advertised, is "BETTY BUCKLEY in HELO, DOLLY!"  It is billed t


Buckley out again in Dolly  Dec 2 2018, 06:24:15 PM



I book to see a show, an ensemble. I'm sorry you're missing out."

When the producers book the tour, they booked this one on Buckley being the lead.  Rarely (if ever) has a season subscription come with a name above the title.    They would not have been able to sell the tour without a name (Dolly is a great piece and this is a good production) because outside of the fervor about Midler this wasn’t a ‘hot ticket&rsquo
