Broadway tips for people used to the west end  Sep 23 2016, 05:17:29 PM

In your opinion who is the greatest playwright of the 20th century?  Sep 23 2016, 05:12:19 PM

Pippin said: "Update: Mass firings happened Tuesday. 6 were fired that day. 4 were fired Wednesday. 2 were just fired about an hour ago today. More will be getting the axe. I work there, and it has been a war for the past 9 months.

After Eight said: "It's a worthwhile play, but I don't think either the staging or acting presented it to greatest advantage. As a result, the first act failed to register much; the second was tighter and better focused.

I need a computer for work and so I don't work in the theatre as the laptop would light up the auditorium like a Christmas tree



Why do some view unknown actors as superior to celebrities ?  Feb 28 2016, 03:54:14 PM

PThespian said: "Did you see Bruce Willis in Misery? Madonna is Speed the Plow? Julia Roberts in Three Days of Rain? Nicole Kidman in The Blue Room?

 

I promise you, had you seen any of the performances listed above, you would not be asking that question. Working in film or television is a completely different style of acting than stage acting is. Some people are good at both, some are not so good.

Definitely go for something nice and light. Shakespeare did some comedies, have you tried Titus Andronicus?



Mainstream artists that you think could write a good musical  Oct 18 2015, 04:42:50 PM

Andrew Lloyd Webber? Surely, law of averages states, if he keeps trying eventually he will write a decent musical



Therese Raquin or Old Times  Oct 16 2015, 08:46:24 AM

Charles III
