She sang it because she is decades long friends with the song writers,one of who was playing the piano. Plus it is a lovely song that deserved win and way better than the dirge that won only because of star power.

The hotel has closed and scaffolding has been erected below The Palace marquee. Not part of the project but the McDonalds on the other end of the block is closing soon too. They built a bigger modern one down the block on the Old Criterion theater site so the whole block will be dark.

"Home" from "The Wiz" is a close second. A small girl alone center stage starting soft and ending by raising the roof.

I always say some theater fans have no idea life exists off W45th Street. To normal people this doesn't sound strange. To some of you it does because nothing matters but the original cast album. This is a POP version of the song. She is not singing it in character just like Streisand wasn't Grisabella singing "Memory". More people covering the song is a good thing.

'Are younger generations even familiar with the movie? I remember watching it in the 80's and being thoroughly entertained, but how familiar is it to people born after 1990?"
Alas no one born after 1990 has a television.

'Well, Whoopi thank you but your VIEW watchers are not the audience for this show and you could not save SB and HOH is heading in the same direction and will close soon and Summer is losing week after week."
So why bother, right? I guess in your world the glass isn't either half full or half empty, it's just empty.
Well, I'll assume he won't be shoplifting the soundtrack anytime soon.

Saw the show on the 4th of July matinee, no evening show scheduled. Walked out of the box office after picking up tickets to see a white SUV coming into the alley. It was Parsons. There were three, I repeat 3 people standing there waiting for him, one was a pro (you know what I mean, has the bag full of 8 x 10's) the other two were together and had the show's windowcard. The couple were ultra polite, "Excuse me Mr.Parsons.... Parsons walked straight to the stage door passing the three and ignore

Why should she sign something at the stage door while she can get $80 for at a Comic Con, which every major city has.

Wait,didn't all these bodies strewn about going up the aisles actually have to go down the aisle first? Who goes down steps and not pay attention to whether they are shallow or not?

Always love when some anonymous theater queen deems a show dead after the FIRST out of town preview.
I met him twice at two different stage doors. He signed "The Lion King" and "The Producers" DVDs and was nothing less than cordial.Both very pleasant experiences and I'm still standing.
" Seriously? Jenifer was not a D list actor then, now or even years before. Take a gander at her film and TV credits, she's done everything. People may not know her name, but they know her face. D list? Smh "
Here is Jennifer herself with Josh Gad talking about her career.
' But I can't help but laugh a little that people are using ticketsales and album downloads as a measure of quality. I mean, sales of FiftyShades of Grey were through the roof - that hardly means it's actually a good book."
You're right, some here would consider " Merrily We Roll Along" an artistic success where the public deemed the whopping sixteen performance flop a colossal piece of crap dismissing it and the millions it never made.<
