I enjoyed them together when SJP did her stint in How to Succeed, but that was back in the 90s when Matthew was actually still trying, and not leaning on his comedy shtick.
Weren't they going to do this Search for the Next Roxie like a year ago? I actually thought they dropped the idea, along with the announced 20th anniversary costume refresh.
I love the idea, but I do hope that folks of all ages get into the finals, I don't want to see a baby-faced Roxie.

I think a lot of Madonna's venues are doing SafeTix, which are mobile only, and people are being instructed to remember their seat locations, because their phones will be put in their pouches immediately after scanning for entry.
To be fair to BWW, the original Time Magazine profile says this:
"He’s adapting two Broadway musicals for the screen: A Chorus Line will unfold as a 10-part miniseries, and The Prom, a feature, will star Meryl Streep and Nicole Kidman. "
In the nicest way, it sounds too good to be true! It would take real producing balls to finance a musical like this - especially when money is so crazy and movie companies are merging like crazy. If it works, it'll be pretty incredible. (Though in two decades, the 50s and 60s will be pretty damn ancient to movie audiences!)
Aladdin did fine there but not exactly gangbusters compared to The Lion King. Mary Poppins seems to be a priority for Disney, with the musical revival in London and the new attraction at Epcot. I guess they feel it's more a family fit, more a hometown hero.

She’s clearly making a joke about the attention span of a 6 year old, and not the activity itself. It’s further emphasized by her longing for the days her child being content with just playing with play dough, instead of signing them up for ballet and dropping $1K on a class only for your kid to be bored and want to quit halfw
But Ms Mindich surprised me by saying she had woken one day at 3am with the realisation that ‘Evan has to be played by a British actor’. She also said they would use colour-blind casting, so he could be played by an Afro-Caribbean or Asian actor."
The writing of the role aside, a Disney tour is probably great money, will definitely be a hit on the road, and will likely lead to either or both of them graduating to the Broadway production. It's a win-win-win.
Sparkling Diamond is such a head-spinning delight, and it's only one track! I've been listening to it on Prime Music all day. So excited for the eventual release.
I don't like that the title is vertical, but otherwise I don't mind it too much. It's simple and the bold white letters let you know that the title is the priority.
I mean, I wouldn't say no to it. Trying to navigate the lobby during intermission, especially with that ladies' room line, is a nightmare. I do think the cost is ridiculous though. The lounges in the Lyric and Hudson are only $40 more I think and those were spaces build specifically for that purpose when they were renovated.
Sorry but this isn't Liza covering for Gwen, people. For all the made-up hype about a two-week alternate, but unless they really want to make the bother, it seems to me Chris Dwan is going to cover the role throughout, and everyone that sees him will be well impressed. He's fabulous.

Statements like this are why I'm glad many posters here do not work in casting. There is no world where a 51 year old actor is remotely appropriate for Seymour."
You mean you don't like when the same five actors and actresses are suggested for every single role, regardless
Reading all these reports, I just looking at a random date in October, and I didn't realize at D2-4 are $240, D6 is $159, and D8-10 are $25 - I didn't realize this crazy pricing was going on. I guess if it's too good to be true, it probably is?
Made a special trip Sunday so I could see Lana and Dylis together and they did not disappoint. Second time seeing Lana and I love her, and Dylis was a great Roxie, I love a Roxie that can actually do the choreography! I did notice they didn't do the cartwheel, which surprised me, perhaps one of them is injured?
First time seeing the show in maybe a year and a half, and I notice they modified the choreography in We Both Reached for the Gun, and they added a reaction fo
