How do you feel about theatre-goers who rush the same show constantly?  Jul 15 2018, 04:58:59 PM

Well, let's not forget that Eve Harrington seemed to be rushing all of Margo Channing's performances... If not, then we never would've had that brilliant movie!

...or that fun musical on Broadway about 20 years later!



Ultimate J.C. Superstar Recording  Jul 14 2018, 04:05:01 PM

I've always liked the 1992 Australian Cast Recording. 

I, too, am a big fan over the movie soundtrack recording. 



When was Carol Channing's last Dolly?  Jul 1 2018, 05:12:34 PM

I saw Carol Channing in “Hello, Dolly!” in 1995 in Pasadena. I don’t think she performed the show anymore after this 30 city tour.

I never appreciated Channing before seeing her live in this tour of the show. However, I immediately GOT IT after seeing her performance. She was absolutely amazing...and her eating dumplings scene at the Harmonia Gardens was...well, perfection.



Evita (Original Broadway Cast Recording) Question  Jul 1 2018, 04:54:04 PM

A lot of the ALW cast recordings have been remastered for rerelease, but I don’t think EVITA was one of them... 



Liza Minnelli / Feinstein ticket available  Jul 1 2018, 04:38:05 PM

Did anyone here go? I saw some good feedback on Facebook, but it seems she only performed a couple of numbers. Understandably.

After seeing her live countless times from the early 70s (including Carnegie Hall, Royal Albert Hall and everything before, after and in-between). I saw her at Disney Hall in Los Angeles in 2014. It was tough to watch, but she had the audience in the palm of her hand. 

I’ll rely on recordings and my memories now. There was a time when no one c


Roles for Meryl Streep on Broadway  Jul 1 2018, 04:20:02 PM

“Singing” in films is a lot different from singing live on Broadway X number of times a week. Maybe Meryl can manage it. We don’t know yet. 

If she’s able, some of these suggestions are pretty great... “Mame”



Filmed shows (Bandstand, Newsies, Saigon)  Jun 30 2018, 02:27:26 PM

The MISS SAIGON Blu-ray, from the UK, is Region Free and will play on all Blu-ray players. 



Men can belt  Jun 11 2018, 05:05:44 PM

Sort of sad that almost everyone who posted to this thread is no longer on this board...



Kelli O'Hara led Kiss Me Kate 2019 Broadway Revival!!!  Jun 11 2018, 04:55:44 PM

Almost everything at Roundabout is a limited engagement...until it’s a hit.



Band's Visit not worth 9 Tonys  Jun 11 2018, 12:55:16 PM

JayElle wrote: The NY Times article said voters were voting "against the commercialism" of the other musicals. It showed.  Show was okay, but not great.

I can't help but wonder what this board would've looked like, had it been around, in 1994 when PASSION won Best Musical over BEAUTY AND THE BEAST...



RENEE ZELLWEGER IN A "CABARET" REMAKE?  Jun 11 2018, 12:18:33 PM

CABARET is one of those rare films, that when viewed today, does not appear dated at all. There really is no need for a remake.



WHO WOULD HAVE BEEN THE BEST FILM  Jun 10 2018, 03:25:25 PM

Looking at the top 10 box office stars of the time...the two women that made the top 10 around then were Barbra Streisand and Katharine Hepburn. 

Watching HELLO, DOLLY! today, I think Streisand works. 

For a production as expensive as DOLLY, there was no way 20th Century Fox was going to take a chance on anyone but a bonafide box office star.



Shoutout To Kelli O'Hara-Classic Roles!  Jun 10 2018, 03:06:40 PM

TexanAddams18 wrote: Except that nowhere in the Carousel script does it say anything about the race of Billy and in West Side Story it says in the first paragraph Maria is Puerto Rican. 

I think the reason for this is that, when CAROUSEL was written...and based on the time period in which the story took place...there was no need to call out the race of Billy. It was just understood.

For WEST SIDE STORY, it was important then to separate the Sharks and Jets in


CAROUSEL revival cast album to be released 7/13; tracklisting and cover  Jun 10 2018, 02:40:58 PM

CDs can actually hold approximately 80 minutes of music.

Others have been correct here about some of the earlier players possibly not being able to handle anything past 72 or 74 minutes. Interesting tidbit: when they were developing CD, the benchmark was that they wanted one disc to be able to hold a complete performance of Beethoven's 9th Symphony.



Coco - OBC Album  Jun 8 2018, 08:04:29 PM

“Scan the hills! Rake the skies!”



CAROUSEL revival cast album to be released 7/13; tracklisting and cover  Jun 8 2018, 07:48:24 PM

I won’t be seeing this in New York after reading all of the negative comments about the production...but, as many people here predicted, and are affirming, it sure does make for a great cast recording! I’m enjoying Tunick’s orchestrations and all of the performances. The recording has “life” to it as does the new “My Fair Lady” recording.

it makes me even angrier that we got such an underwhelming recording of “Hello, Dolly!” last ye


Coco - OBC Album  Jun 8 2018, 07:09:54 PM

Dollypop, you are so right! COCO has to be, hands down, the most poorly produced cast album of the modern age of stereo recording. The CD iteration is just as bad...



Broadway Records to release MY FAIR LADY cast album  Jun 8 2018, 06:55:06 PM

I pay for both Apple Music and Spotify. Currently, it’s not available on either of these services. I think someone said earlier that this record label doesn’t release digitally for sometimes up to a year. That’s a shame as they’d realize revenues now from digital. In a year, demand will not be so great...or a lot of people will have moved on to next year’s cast albums. All of the majors release their cast albums day-and-date with the physical release. I

A Star Is Born  Jun 6 2018, 11:14:07 PM

fashionguru_23 asked: Does anyone know where this fits in number of times the same movie has been remade outside of Shakespeare, or ones where they have the same source material (Shop Around the Corner)

I think the first iteration of the story on film came with WHAT PRICE HOLLYWOOD, directed by George Cukor in 1932 and starring Constance Bennett.

In 1937, that film was remade starring Janet Gaynor and Fredric March...it was titled A STAR IS BORN.



MAME - North Shore Music Theatre  Jun 6 2018, 10:53:50 PM

MAME is one of my go-to cast albums. I would love to see it revived... Please, if you see the North Shore Music Theatre production, post your review here...
