Interesting Mid-Show Mishaps  Dec 3 2019, 12:51:45 AM

wicked sf sit down-eden espinosa was struggling with allergies during first few songs, went off stage on way to oz and standby felicia ricci came back on as elphie as entering oz with no announcement. felicia did great, but mispositioned the broom during the elevator lift in gravity and it snapped in two...

Felicia as an  excellent elphaba and sorry to see her not stay in musicals, she did some amazing youtube videos and a great online vocal training program....



Your Top 10 Shows This Decade  Nov 30 2019, 03:28:23 PM

hi vintagesnarker

been a while since we have chatted. I knew epic would draw a response so we can have a dialogue vs another dreary list posting

Epic is certainly a subjective opinion, and it will take the advantage of time to see where the class of 2010-2019 stacks up against golden age decades in the 1950s and 1960s or the BIG musical 1980s or 1990s. 

my nomination for 2010s as EPIC is based on

1) Hamilton as a true gamechanger in making music in musicals co

Is there Room For Sing Street and The Wrong Man?  Sep 12 2019, 03:55:21 PM

its gonna be big and leading tony contender whether it makes this season or next

im so excited to see this one


RIP Broadway 07/18/2019  Jul 20 2019, 04:59:56 PM
of course this title is clickbait, but im in an airport waiting for my plane so ill bite...

i saw all the new shows and revivals this season. hadestown was fantastic,aint too proud was dazzling, tootsie was funny and well acted, and the prom was good fun. the fresh look at oklahoma held my attention

no blockbusters this season with long legs like evan hansen or
hamilton except maybe aint too proud which i think will outlast hadestown

its a boom economy so people a


Hamilton Tour Ticket Prices  Jun 24 2019, 11:35:38 PM

for the sf sitdown they have been offering on goldstar 97 side and back mezz tix and the cast here is fantastic

ive seen them three times and will go again in july



Biggest Tony upset of all time?  Jun 19 2019, 11:31:13 PM
i never thought mathilda was a great musical
i liked berties performance a lot...
i listen to kinky boots songs all the time have seen in many times over its run and thoroughly enjoyed every cast and performance. i saw mathilda obc once and tour once and wouldnt go back again...

i know everyone has their favorites so respect those of you that loved mathilda more...

the audience certainly voted with grosses and giving kinky boots a 2500 performance run on bway vs 1500 sh


Ain't Too Proud ... Snubbed!  Jun 19 2019, 11:04:13 PM
holy cow
aint too proud is the fourth largest grossing musical on broadway right now behind only

hamilton 3m
lion king 2.2m
wicked 1.9m
aint too proud 1.6m

wow


Ain't Too Proud ... Snubbed!  Jun 19 2019, 10:56:47 PM
ain’t too proud can laugh all the way to the bank and to impacting and uplifting so many people

this show will outlast, outgross, and out tour hadestown and all other shows from this season combined

after seeing it prebroadway a handful of times and loving every single performance. i saw it sunday in nyc

somehow and fantastic show had gotten even better with the cast members operating at an absolutely incredible level
(special shout out to ephram and jeremy...nice


The Prom Will Close 8/11  Jun 19 2019, 09:22:09 PM
just saw the show last week
and sad to hear its closing

great book with some nice satire on bway and a lot of delightful
fun score with several gems
wonderful and very lovable cast
all that said its a good and probably not great show with a story line thats not as likely to register mass appeal.

the bands visit won 10 tonys and closed after 18 because there is not sustained mass appeal for beautiful niche productions(although i read it did recoup)

i thi


Roy Orbison's  Jun 19 2019, 01:52:08 PM
this is a good move
shocked they didnt do it from the start

just saw this last week for the first time
and liked it a lot more than i thought i would
its not great
it is fun and entertaining and the guy playing the hotel manager/street person pretty much steals the show

i was also lucky enough to see roy orbison play a 400 person club in sf in 1982

he was the real deal

pretty woman is a truly iconic song, long before richard gere and julia rob


Hamilton San Francisco  Jun 18 2019, 07:18:09 PM
wow hamilton sf just showed up on goldstar with 95 rear mezz and side mezz seats
also noticed top premium seats in center orch and front mezz arent selling and being discounted down to as low as 200 a few days before show

the san francisco cast is terrific, so looking like hamilton is reaching saturation after five mos in sf in 2017 and almost four months on this run....

im really surprised and think part of it may be that people dont think good tickets are available at rea


enter laughing musical(so long 174th street) in nyc  Jun 17 2019, 07:07:11 PM
i went to enter laughing thursday because of the good show score rating(87) and the fact its based on carl reiners autobiography.

what not aware of this former broadway show that starred robert morse.

the show was very entertaining, a classic musical comedy/farce of the 1930s style show set in the 30s, and really delivered well by the male lead in the show chris dwan(finding neverland) i also really liked the score enough to buy the original cast cd

catch it if you ca

Hadestown Post-Tony Performance and Curtain Call Speech  Jun 11 2019, 11:58:54 PM
it was a very electric performance tonight and so fun to see the first performance after a show gets so appropriately recognized after the tonys
was grateful to be there and going back saturday night
extraordinary show....


Hamilton San Francisco  May 25 2019, 08:23:43 PM
hi insert clever name
last row in orch at orpheum are still very good seats especially center section because thats where the sound mixing is
and also you get the full effect of all the actors on both levels of the stage

amazing cast and hamilton is the best musical ever


Musicals most people hated, but you liked  May 21 2019, 08:06:54 PM
i really liked both the music and performances in big fish and still listen to the cast recording frequently.

also liked if/then music(story was confusing)



Tootsie- worst musical of the year  May 21 2019, 08:02:00 PM
surprised how many posters i really respect took the bait on this troll post.

darn i guess i took it too by clicking this link.


Ain't Too Proud Reviews  Apr 30 2019, 03:18:41 PM
12 tony nominations!!!!
12!

for the one person bashing my credibility when i saw the first out of town previews and siad this was a really good broadway ready show no names but initials WW

i rest my case....


Ain't Too Proud Reviews  Mar 22 2019, 09:33:03 PM
this is a very good show thats super entertaining, well crafted performed and acted,and deserves the strong reviews from nyt and others.

i saw the first preview in berkeley and posted back then this deserves a place on broadway- (and mocked by others on this site)

i think it ranks below jersey boys and beautiful and ranks above (imo) any of the other biopic musicals....

i think it will get 3-5 nominations and could win for choregraphy
costumes, lighting and maybe
