Laura Benanti to replace Lauren Ambrose in MY FAIR LADY  Aug 23 2018, 11:36:58 PM

laura will be great. I saw both other actors and liked the understudy better than Lauren and Lauren was fine.

My next wish for casting after Laura B would be would be the incredible Laura Osnes, who would also be dazzling as Eliza..... 



Ain't Too Proud Officially Heading to Broadway  Aug 23 2018, 11:33:38 PM

This is a very, very good musical, and I enjoyed every minute. I saw it three times in Berkeley. It got very strong reviews overall in the bay area, and set records at the venue. Derek Baskin the lead is incredible.

incredible, stunning performances, amazing choreography and costumes, some of the worlds best music ever, a solid book (for a biopic) and a lot of heart, sweat and soul.

give this one a chance, folks-especially if you like soul and motown musical. its


I've seen Frozen eight times. Here's why ... and why you shouldn't judge me  Aug 21 2018, 08:35:37 PM
good for you illana-keep going and have a fantastic time. as someone whose been ridiculed by “professional” critics on this board for seeing shows they deemed “mediocre” i support going to shows as many times as u get enjoyment from them and screw those who judge others.
im going to les miz tonight for the 12th time after seeing it less than a week ago. why? because its a great show(to me-its not for everyone) and a strong cast.


Frank Sinatra: His Merits and Demerits  Aug 21 2018, 03:20:43 PM

Sinatra was a vocal master and more importantly a master of song interpretation and  living and acting the story he was singing. In one of his bios he was quoted as saying every song was like a three minute movie and if he couldnt connect emotionally to the song and convey the emotional content he would perform it.

That pretty much is the definition of musical theatre singing.....

He was also quoted: 

"Throughout my career, if I have done anything, I h


Les Miserables Tour 2017  Aug 19 2018, 06:58:52 PM
im two thumbs up for this gorgeous tour production and cast. i saw the revival on bway with ramin so familiar with this production. both leads were fantastic
and had better chemistry imo than the revival val jean and javert. very strong voices throughout the cast great sound and orchestrations
bring him home was stunningly kveautlful. my minor gripe is the fantine was s big time belter and belted the life out of i dreamed a dream and did not give mich emotion to the song.

ill pr


Who sings the best Soliloquy?  Aug 18 2018, 09:41:54 AM

John Raitt on that 1952 tv performance is stunning and wins over anything ive seen or heard. Loved Joshua Henry's performance as well live this year-he definitely put his own mark on the song and role. Special mention to Hugh Jackman, who  did a wonderful version during his one man broadway show.

 



Megan Hilty Waitress  Aug 9 2018, 08:52:01 AM

yes.

would go see this again with Megan in a minute....



Best Musical Books?  Jul 29 2018, 09:09:13 PM
studying the historical best book winners and lonngest running shows and finding patterns in the types of stories that are recieved well by audiences is a great start. a book publisher once told me there are only seven movie stories and im sure its probably the same for musicals.

for me, its all about caring about or forming a connection with the characters and being able to relate to them is what drops me into the story.

the books of shows ive loved the most in recent years <

GETTIN' THE BAND BACK TOGETHER Previews  Jul 28 2018, 02:31:06 PM
im excited to see this just because i like the storyline.

its too bad the season has started with this and hoh(a truly horrible show)

im hopeful pretty woman will do well and very encouraged by early takes on moulin rouge in boston and hadestown pre broadway-

this wont be the best season in broadway musical history but it probably wont be the worst either....
oops forgot king kong is coming...(sigh)


Gypsy at Music Circus  Jul 27 2018, 12:50:43 PM

ive been to a lot of music circus productions,,they are very good most of the time for regional productions, and are a LONG ways from a broadway level production. The head of music circus is a great guy and really fills a need in the sacramento area and the theatre in the round there is well constructed and delivered a lot of musicals to folks that dont get much quality except for touring broadway shows...

i would subscribe if it wasnt a 2 plus hour drive.

would like to see caro


HEAD OVER HEELS Reviews  Jul 26 2018, 09:26:54 PM
its entertaining to watch bww editors try to grab any positive snippets from the mostly terrible reviews to try and prop this trainwreck up....

HEAD OVER HEELS Previews  Jul 26 2018, 06:07:36 PM
anyone have opinions on what the reviews coming out will be like for this show???

critics were way more generous than i would have been for the sf run...curious to see what the nyc pros think....


Moulin Rouge Colonial Theatre Previews  Jul 14 2018, 04:55:19 PM

many thank yous to early attendees posted their first impressions.

im very excited to see this when it hits new york and think this could be one of the hot shows of the 2018-19 season if they can find a good house and launch in spring 2019.....



Re: Cole Porter in Sleuth (1972)  Jul 14 2018, 01:30:32 PM
wow
these are fine vocals and certainly were “styled” after al bowllys voice and arrangements from the thirties.
the recordings do sound more contemporary.
my bet is a local studio guy doing an al bowlly impersonation


WICKED Surpasses MAMMA MIA! as 8th Longest-Running Show in Broadway History  Jul 9 2018, 01:15:55 PM
just noticed last week wicked was at 110% of grosses in a huge theatre (the gershwin) in its 15th year....THATS incredible
and another reflection of the staying power of this beautiful musical-i saw it again last month and still delivers all the goods.

imo book of mormon and hamilton will easily ascend to the top ten longest running shows and both will ultimately likely join phantom and wicked in the top five all time.

i saw chicago last month and think the show is nearly
