White Jews and LGBTQ have never experienced discrimination or prejudice? I bet they'd be really surprised to learn that.


this is such a disingenuous argument. You might have suffered personal discrimination but your ancestors did not suffer systematic oppression that was LEGAL and MANDATED in the constitution. To suggest it is the same is be


Slave Play  Dec 23 2019, 03:02:41 PM

Of course white Jewish people and queer people have experienced discrimination. But not because of their race. That's the point, and you're being deliberately obtuse. Racism is prejudice plus power. This is something that is taught in basic level sociology classes, including the one I took more than 10 years ago as an undergraduate, so this discourse isn't as new as some of you seem to think it is. Just because *you* didn't know about it doesn't mean it didn't exist.&n

CSC Assassins update  Dec 17 2019, 02:21:38 PM

I saw her in This Is Our Youth (which, you're right, she was awful in) and in The Crucible, which I found less offensive but was also a significantly smaller role than This Is Our Youth. I still found her speech patterns and mannerisms onstage to be quite grating. I've also never heard her sing or even heard anyone mention that she can, so that's a concern as well. 



CSC Assassins update  Dec 17 2019, 02:02:00 PM

HOW on earth does Tavi Gevinson continue to get high profile acting jobs? She's been legitimately awful in the things I've seen her in, I don't understand. 



Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Seating/Pricing Thread  Dec 6 2019, 03:51:05 PM

I work in the building and dress circle is my favorite place to watch the show from. 



Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 11/24/19  Nov 26 2019, 01:41:51 PM

I was there a couple of years ago to see Jaime Camil as Billy Flynn and the theatre is legitimately falling apart. We were in the mezzanine and there were holes in the walls, the floors, the ceilings...it's a mess. 



Lyceum Balcony for A Christmas Carol  Nov 1 2019, 08:08:40 PM

I legitimately won't sit in the Lyceum balcony because it's terrifying. It's very steep and it also slopes at the sides, and it feels very far away. 



Broadway’s “Memphis” 10 Years Later...  Oct 22 2019, 08:26:27 PM

I saw all of the new musicals that opened that year except for Million Dollar Quartet, and Memphis was the one that pissed me off the most. It is startlingly lazy and mediocre and it takes zero risks; even the closing number being cited by many here as a highlight is a blatant rip-off of "You Can't Stop The Beat." Especially in hindsight, I think that both American Idiot and Fela! hold up significantly better. Both were interesting and experimental, and I'd rather a show be

 Aug 3 2019, 08:38:13 PM

I saw Spider-Man 1.0 and it was indeed bananas. There are some quite lengthy threads on here from that time, including one documenting the night that Chris Tierney fell off a raised platform and down into the stage and was seriously injured (and miraculously returned to the show once he recovered). 



How did Phantom lose Best Score??  Jul 30 2019, 01:49:04 AM

Some of you have never heard of intentional musical motifs and themes and it really shows! 

But seriously, there's a stark difference between the repetition of musical and lyrical phrases in Into the Woods (all intentional and done with the intent of furthering story and/or character) and ALW's inability to write more than 3-5 songs per show. You can dislike Sondheim, but dismissing his work as boring or painting him as not having any skill as a writer is absurd. 



Be more chill digital lottery  Jul 19 2019, 08:36:19 PM

Was this really necessary? Someone asked where seat locations had been from people who'd won and a few of us responded to the question. It's your business if you don't like the show, but I don't understand why people seem to be getting off on its commercial failure/closing. 



Be more chill digital lottery  Jul 19 2019, 06:14:53 PM

I won last weekend and our seats were in row G of the orchestra. 



Times Square Partial Power Outage  Jul 15 2019, 07:17:53 PM

Signature also lost power about 2 hours after Times Square did. We had a 9 pm NYMF curtain that did go up, but we lost power about 20-30 minutes into the performance and then cancelled it. 



West Side Story revival?  Jul 9 2019, 11:56:51 PM

Amar Ramasar is indeed half Puerto Rican, but he was appallingly bad in Carousel and is also <<edited by BWW staff>>. If it's true that he's been cast, I'll be disappointed but not surprised.



Auditioning Blues & Master's Ambitions  Jul 3 2019, 02:18:38 AM

If you're interested in teaching, why not get a degree in music education or vocal pedagogy instead of performance? Westminster Choir College in New Jersey has an excellent reputation for both, and they also offer performance degrees. 



Dragon Spring Phoenix Rising at The Shed  Jun 28 2019, 02:12:32 PM

OffOnBwayHi said: "lol I really think The Shed will never be your thing until you open up to what the programming is. Unlike other institutions, the artists are truly dictating the work, not the audience$. And that’s HUGE and unheard of.

i agree and think they are going to need a major hit sometime down the line to really become a respected institution and sustain, but it looks as if they are gonna do it on their own terms.

also, the other institutions tha


Ryan Murphy To Develop Film Adaptation Of THE PROM For Netflix  Jun 25 2019, 07:11:09 PM

GeorgeandDot said: "I think straight people can play gay roles if they approach it with nuance and humanity. I thought that Timothee Chalamet and Cate Blanchett both played gay roles gorgeously with a ton of depth and nuance. However, straight actors can easily fall into the trap of playing stereotypes without humanity and nuance. They go for the camp, but none of the humanity. However, when gay actors play roles like that, it comes across as human and a form of self-expression. An e

Laura Benanti Gave A Classy Read Last Night At MY FAIR LADY  Jun 20 2019, 03:09:04 PM

Lin did something similar when someone was filming during the Broadway run of In the Heights: "Get off at 181st and take the escalator/You better put that away, I'm gonna take it later." 



Women on the verge - What went wrong?  May 11 2019, 01:24:21 PM

I saw the show very early in previews and I know it went through vast changes, which indicates to me that they should have done an out of town tryout before the Broadway run. The main thing that sticks out as a problem to me a number of years on is the direction; it felt overwrought and was attempting to make a large-scale spectacle of a story that should have been small and focused on the relationships among the characters. The book definitely didn't help this as it wasn't particular
