Also, it doesn't surprise me that there's no intermission. It isn't a long show. If memory serves the UK arena tour preformed it without one. But, typically the act one closer is Damned For All Time/Blood Money. However, the entire running time of the show is about an hour and forty min. So it can be. I don't know the history of the show too well to know if it's common or not.

The thing is that while yes, there's a law against cellphone usage in theaters. However, it's never enforced. It's like jaywalking in the city. Sure, it's against the law, but can you think of a time when
Secondly, in any situation, people are entitled to their thoughts and feelings on a given matter. That said, the other day at work, there was a meeting for the cast. And while I was doing my understudy inserts, I was asked by someone in the cast if I knew how many tickets were sold. When I responded by saying we were sold out, they shook their head and muttered to themselves that they are selling out and

While I very much agree with everything you said, be careful. After all, Millie might call you out for “silencing the victim.”
Yes it was. Clay knew his lines but clearly Ruben didn’t. That said it was scripted and the acting (if you can call it that) was ****e from everyone involved
Ruben & Clay Christmas back next year? Dec 11

I worked it on Christmas Day last year. Dear god was it bad. Next to the sound booth was a guy with the script and a mic. It turned out he was feeding Ruben his lines.

Broadway is a Billion dollar business - this happens. And they’re not kicking the show out tomorrow. Not this winter Or even this spring but next summer.

It's a nasty thing to do in my opinion, I don't care how that sounds. This is getting closed for a celebrity cash grab revival, that's what I think sucks. "

I am just curious about something. While it is clear that the stop clause was put into play by Shubert prior to them getting a decent box office boom. Has there ever been a situation before where the stop clause is put into play, only to be revoked due to doing better at the box office? Or, once it’s put into play, is it a done deal regardless?
Alanis Morissette Announces Jagged Little Pill 25th-Anniversary Tour With Garbage & Liz Phair Dec 5
2019, 05:37:38 PM
I think that this could help the show if anything. I saw the show twice on Broadway. And, both times I was sitting around people who came because of being fans of the album and Alanis’s music in general. I mean she played a show at The Apollo the other night where she did the entire Jagged Little Pill album unplugged/acoustic and it was a sold out show. I went, got my ticket via stub hub but was told by someone next to me that the show sold out fast when tickets went on sale.
I never got the chance to see this when it was in movie theatres. But, for those that didn't catch it on PBS it's on BroadwayHD as well (which was how I saw it.) And, it was a very well filmed performance indeed.

Marquis Theater's Next Show? Nov 15
2019, 08:52:03 PM
Nice idea but there’s one major difference. The Marquis is in a hotel, the Palace is its own building.
fashionguru_23 said: "I would assume that Disney would look into the Marquis, as all their shows (minus Frozen) have been Nederlander houses...which, remind me again why Frozen wasn't in a Nederlander?"
Prior to the construction project that is going on at the Palace, there was a lot of back and forth going on regarding whether or not the project could be a thing or not. And, keep in mind, it was initially set to start after American in Paris.
I do recall reading somewhere that they couldn't get the licensing from Motown to use the songs that were in the movie for some reason or another. This has nothing to do with the musical being closed as another poster mentioned.
Also, there's something I've been curious about regarding Whoopi and this show for awhile. I know that when the original London production was on its last legs, Whoopi came in and played Mother Superior for a little as a way to bump up ticket

Ravenclaw said “ I think a lot of people are quick to judge the star for performing "diva behavior" without looking at all the surrounding circumstances.“
No, I think you’re incorrect I don’t think that people are doing that. This “diva behavior” you mention is coming from someone who, in every single situation, regardless of circumstances paints herself as the victim. Considering that she has always blamed others for her wrongdoings, she looses credibility and whatever the circumstanc
This interview made me roll my eyes. I find it very childish that every single time she tells a story, she is never in the wrong. I say childish because to me, it comes across as a very immature move. I wonder if it would actually kill her to own up to a mistake she's made in the past rather than pass the buck and blame her negative actions onto someone else.
I did find this article when doing a google search. I do wonder, since the article does state that the cast was international, does that at all change things seeing as it wasn't a full American cast that was preforming the sho anyways.
