I just got the same thing on a Chromebook. It's worked fine for previous quizzes.
Jordan Catalano said: "Is there anything specific that sets the show in the states? If not, I can’t imagine why a few words couldn’t/wouldn’t be changed to have it more obviously set in the UK. I mean, even “Wicked” changed a line when Glinda says something about her and Elphie going to “Uni” together."
I'm guessing that the baseball glove scene would be a bit anomalous in a British setting, but I could be wrong.

Well, that's certainly possible - I probably wouldn't have seen those posts. I think my evaluation is fair based on the visible posts, but I acknowledge I may not have the whole story.
CurtainPullDowner said: "It will certainly be a topic to show the hypocrisy of bringing up frump's sexual proclivities."
I would think that a show frankly exposing Clinton's own sexual aggression, produced by a liberal Democrat, would have precisely the opposite effect: it would legitimize attacks on Trump's sexual crimes.
Elfuhbuh said: "Into the Woods is overrated, but speaking as someone who loves Phantom, I'll say I can see why it didn't win Best Score, given that it IS basically the same six tunes repeated over and over again."
This claim, or something like it, has been made several times on this thread, but it's demonstrably false.
Here are ten full-length, individual songs from the show:

Well, this may be a bit superficial, but in both cases the object is to persuade someone to do something they're reluctant to do: the managers want to overcome Carlotta's indignation and get her to appear on stage again, and Raoul, as you said, wants Chris
Lot666 said: "kair enough, but what do you think ALW would say about his use of musical themes in Phantom, if asked?"
Although I don't love Phantom, I'm actually quite pro-ALW, and I have no doubt that a great deal of thought goes into creating his best scores. Years ago, in fact, I had a website that analyzed the score of Aspects of Love in rather excruciating detail!
Lot666 said: "Did you have a private audience with Mr. Sondheim, during which he shared this developmental information with you, or should you have prefaced this statement with those all-important-but-usually-omitted three words, "In my opinion..."?"
You can read about Sondheim's use of various musical themes in the relevant chapter in Sondheim on Music. I don't have it in front of me now, but I believe he wrote out an explicit list of
I recently stayed at the Hotel Edison, on 47th Street, and checked bags without being asked whether I was staying there. It was a dollar per bag (plus a tip).
I'm not the best at recognizing celebrities, but it's happened to me a few times. The most memorable incident was when I saw Daphne Rubin-Vega waiting for the subway at 23rd St. and she sat next to me when we got on the train. I mentioned how much I liked her in Bernarda Alba (as well as how much I admired the show itself), and we then had a nice little conversation. She was extremely gracious and friendly, and complimented my NOH8 tattoo. Yondr Pouches Jul 23

This would go a long way in addressing my personal concerns about the pouches. As a complete non-offender, I would definitely resent any delay in leaving the theater because of the sins of those who use their phones during a performance.
The ending of Light in the Piazza - the song "Fable," essentially - elevates an already great show to "top five" status for me. I can't think of many other musicals that end with a song that's brand new and as substantial and beautiful as this one.
Another great work that's pushed even higher by its ending is Angels in America. Somehow, by concluding on such an intimate note, the final scene makes everything that ca
Only with toxic males who contributeto rape culture (they don't matter). Everyone else has been pretty supportive of the victims involved."
I agree with you, not Joe, on the substance of this debate. However, if you're implying that Joe himself is a toxic male contributing to rape culture because of his spirited but civil disagreement with your judgments on this matter (and mine), then I can't agree with that. I thi
When I saw the Boston production - which I otherwise loved - I was slightly irritated that there was no resolution to the Duke's story line. There was no indication of what happens to him or what he does at the end, and that seemed to be a big loose end. Have they addressed that at all for the Broadway production?
Yero my Hero said: "Of course it should, because the term "recoup" is meaningless and irrelevant to the way nonprofits finance shows."
I do appreciate the distinction between commercial and nonprofit productions, but I have to imagine that the boards of directors of Roundabout and Lincoln Center Theater have a pretty good idea about which productions have put money in their bank accounts, and approximately how much.
Aside from a few of the ones already mentioned, I really dislike Carl-Magnus from A Little Night Music. He's creepy and selfish but also completely toothless - not just unlikable but entirely uninteresting. Regardless of who plays Carl-Magnus, I find him a chore to watch in an otherwise clever and charming show.
JSquared2 said: "Actually, no it can't be answered by "analyzing data". You can't measure "luck" --- you can only measure levels of success based on what shows have played in a particular theatre."
Of course I agree with you as you’ve stated it, but it seems like the gyst of the conversation has revolved around the simpler question of which theaters have hosted shows with long or short runs.

I think you’d have to put the Winter Garden on the “lucky” side, too. Ultimately this is a question that can be answered pretty precisely through the analysis of data that’s readily available, though I demur from taking on the project. :)
