They're selling window cards at the theater. Just got a frame for mine"
Very interesting....they aren't even selling them on the show's website....they do have clothing and magnets, etc, but no show cards.....I'll have to see if I can find one online somewhere to add to my collection!
I think a cast recording would be a smart investment for promoting future regional productions of the show and I suspect a recording announcement could come soon.....I am surprised that there don't appear to be any show posters for sale for this....at least not online at Triton Gallery.....are they selling at the theatre? Seems like a no-brainer as a souvenir for fans of the show.
Interesting news story this afternoon.....Reprise 2.0 in Los Angeles had scheduled Carmen Cusack starring in Victor/Victoria this Sept, but today announced that the production has been postponed and replaced with And The World Goes 'Round....HMMMM.....makes you wonder, don't it???
The cast posted several weeks ago on Twitter that they were in the studio doing their cast recording. A track from it (She Works Hard For The Money) is included on the Broadway Records Tony 2018 collection and the booklet states that the Summer Original Broadway Cast Recording will be released by Republic Records. As of now, there is no info on the Republic website so we don't have a release date yet.
Very interesting.....guess they really were struggling to find something to bring in. Still begs the question as to what exactly happened with Crazy For You? I am surmising that it just wasn't ready or someone in the cast/creative team had a serious scheduling conflict that couldn't be worked around. The recent NY workshop would seem to indicate that they weren't 100% confident in what they had regarding any possible revisions to the show. To be honest, I n
Not really sure Aint Too Proud is actually the replacement show since it clearly states that it's part of the 2018/2019 Season and the missing show is supposed to be a part of the current 2017/2018 Season. If that's what they are intending, what are they going to do for the 2017/2018 subscribers who paid for a certain number of shows and are now being short-changed???
Soft Power was already part of the announced season, although I do see it will also be playing in SF -- guess they are seriously thinking it will move to Bway at some point.
My hope (as unrealistic as it may be) is that they are waiting for Donna Murphy to conclude with HELLO DOLLY in NY and will then announce that the Broadway production of WAR PAINT will be brought in with Ebersole again playing Arden and Murphy playing Rubenstein! I can dream, can't I?
I saw the show during one of the final previews with a theatre friend of mine. It had a wonderful cast, although Bostwick and Gleason were no Powell & Loy, but the talent up on stage was amazing. Sadly, the show around them was a real mess. We didn't care at all about the mystery (the murder of Lorraine, played by Faith Prince) and the score was a mix of some nice songs and some very forgettable songs. The thing we remembered most was Faith Prince. Neithe
It really depends on the creative team working on the show. I have written the libretto for 3 different musicals. In two of the instances, I wrote the full libretto as if it was a straight play knowing full well that the emotional high and low points would likely be removed and replaced with songs (never easy to see happen when you work so hard on those scenes, but it is part of the process) and on the third show, much of the score had already been written by the time I joined the proje
Very odd "exclusive" story over at Deadline.com. Stating that DISASTER! will be closing July 3rd to make way for another show which will be announced later. It was announced back in February that MOTOWN was opening at the Nederlander on July 12th; so, it's pretty logical that DISASTER! would be closing before that. Does Deadline's Jeremy Gerard not read the theatre websites???
I've had excellent interactions with Broadway Records so I'm sure they will get this recording up on their site and into our hands as soon as they can....I wonder if the wait is so that they can reveal the CD artwork and details on Thursday at the concert
Not sure why Broadway Records doesn't have it listed on the website yet....maybe they will post it on Thursday, the day of the reunion concert....I believe it will be available the following week for purchase
