The entire finale of the Prom was posted by The Prom on Instagram, though?!

Well, you can say people are complaining about anything, and be able to confirm it on Twitter. That doesn't mean it's a legitimate concern.

Like most threads that go off the rails, it is usually prompted by execution. Like, if you had posted this in the Weekly Grosses thread, no one would have blinked. But to start a new thread about an ongoing discussion, to highlight a data point that is in line with previous discussion, it is always going to bring additional


Little Shop Extending?  Aug 22 2019, 12:42:35 PM

Almost all shows have an alternate schedule for Thanksgiving week, which is why it’s made it harder to schedule. For example, many shows have two shows on Black Friday but some just ha

Nycat63 said: "An off broadway show (albeit not your typical one) literally just cost me as much as my round trip flight from the Midwest, and the other two will cost far more "

That's more an availability issue, no? I mean, I paid $69 for Groff seats and $149 for Glick seats, both side aisles. There were still $119 seats further back for the day I'm seeing Glick, but f

Everyone in this thread has said they were in the rear orchestra?!

Pretend it is extending, hold a slot open for it, and then have a back-up if it doesn't? Not sure what the issue would be here. It's not like they're going to start doing some weird alternate schedule if they extend.

Also, I'd hold a show for which it is easier to get tickets as the Littl

Isn't that the only outcome of people sharing differing opinions on something no one has the answer to?



Jonathan Groff Alternate for Little Shop?  Aug 22 2019, 09:31:59 AM

Pose2 said: "^ It's a bit expensive for Off Broadway, actually^"

Is it? I mean, the prices seem in line with Rock of Ages, with a $119 top price for a regular seat, and $149 premiums.Jersey boys has a top price of $109 with a premium price of $159. I mean, sure, if you compare it to some Off-Broadway, it is pricy, but not among the tier in which it is playing. And, on top of that, they are selling well at those prices, compared to some other shows with discounts,

The prices are somewhat modest, no? I mean, their premium seats are less than a regular priced Broadway ticket.

Stunt Casting  Aug 20 2019, 01:52:14 PM

WestEndGal said: "I totally get why people get upset about pure ‘stunt casting’ when it seemingly takes an opportunity away from an experienced actor / singer, but I also see why it’s necessary for some shows when the alternative might be that the show will otherwise close"

Why would a show do it if their advance sales were solid and they didn't need to? I think it is always linked to keeping the show going...



Stunt Casting  Aug 20 2019, 09:34:16 AM

Stunt casting isn't necessarily a bad thing, but one would hope Sugg can actually act, sing, or dance (pick two). Just because he hasn't done these things before doesn't mean he can't, and he was on a dance competition, although I'm not sure if that proved or disproved his prowess.

How much are broadway actors worth  Aug 19 2019, 09:50:31 AM

Call_me_jorge said: "I think people are undervaluing Charlie Williams and Ryan Steele. While both have primarily been in ensemble roles, at this point in their career, I feel as if they are more recognizable talents than your average ensemble member. They both have such long resumes, it wouldn’t be unrealistic that they’d get more money just because of the experience they have."

Why would having more experience be an asset? If someone with less experience

They probably had a certain amount of time to air it and, after that date, it came down. Why would CBS pull a video on which they were earning ad revenue for some nonsensical reason? The nominees probably all had one contract, and shows that bou
