Desperately Seeking Susan Musical Disaster  May 6 2018, 05:05:34 PM
Well I'm just gonna jump in and say that I produced the Manchester, UK performances of 'Desperately Seeking the Exit' and for any fans of theatre or just great storytelling and comedy this is a must see. This play is a genuine treat.

I also liked Desperately Seeking Susan the Musical apart from the direction, choreography and a cast member, oh and the set

Wow the over reacting in this thread is insane.

Best And Worst Jukebox Musical Through The Years  Dec 23 2017, 02:35:42 PM
Footloose is not a jukebox musical

Best - American Idiot, Our House, Jersey Boys.

Ok - On Your Feet (lots of fun but could have gone deeper)

Worst - Good Vibrations (at the moment my company is trying to secure rights to Beach Boys Music as I think it's a crying shame that this mess of a show was built around such great music. We have a script ready to go, the show written, now it's just trying to secure the music)

Monkee Business - just a disaster from star


Breaking: THE BOYS IN THE BAND Will Come to Broadway This Spring with Jim Parsons, Zachary Quinto, Matt Bomer, Andrew Rannells & More!  Dec 15 2017, 11:32:19 PM
The recent UK Revival of this was very good but it hasn't aged well at all. It's a fascinating look back to that time and the changes in attitudes etc.

It actually got very strong reviews here in Manchester then in London.

Oak Speaks out on great comet controversy  Oct 6 2017, 02:17:30 PM

I spoke to Cynthia and all she kept saying is 'I'm right' and oh Oak blocked me 



Oak Speaks out on great comet controversy  Oct 6 2017, 02:01:33 PM

Speed said: "Oak is a human being and aprofessional actor himself. Deserves better than "narcissistic nobody." Andy Karl may be a Broadway veteranbut he was entrusted with TWO huge Broadway musicals (Rocky and Groundhog Day) and completely failed to turn either into a hit. Pierre isn't really a lead role like what Andy had in Rocky and GD. Shouldn't Andy be held to a higher standard? Maybe Andy is the "big old nobody" that should never be hired again. Also

how much money did GHD lose?  Sep 17 2017, 06:27:54 PM

It's coming back to the UK. 



GROUNDHOG DAY Will Play Final Broadway Performance This September  Aug 15 2017, 07:46:17 PM

It's painful to see superb creative shows like this and American Psycho go down so fast.

Please leave the petty sniping out of threads dedicated to factual discussion. Thank you.

Petty sniping? I simply said factually you are wrong. That is not what the shows running costs are at all, I know this for a fact. You often seem to just pull numbers out of thin air.

Well I can tell YOU from facts that you are wrong. 



Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 7/30/17  Aug 1 2017, 05:46:42 PM

Where has the 800 to 800k weekly running cost for Great Comet come from?



Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 7/16/17  Jul 17 2017, 09:11:04 PM

What's your problem now Liza? 



Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 7/16/17  Jul 17 2017, 08:29:11 PM

Groundhog Day reminds me of American Psycho, a great show that somehow did not translate to American audiences. I hope both shows have their deserved success back in the UK and around the rest of the world. 



Black Billy (Carousel Revival)  Jul 7 2017, 06:25:29 PM

Wait, so black people cant play roles that have a negative side to them now? Sorry this is PC going mad.



Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 6/25/17  Jul 4 2017, 10:36:01 PM

It's still right now doing over 800k a week, I would say that right now it's fine. 



Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 6/25/17  Jul 4 2017, 07:14:44 PM

It baffles my mind all this alarmist posting about Groundhog Day, the show is pulling in decent numbers, maybe not wow numbers but for sure not in the danger zone.
