Im really hoping for Betty White, Bette Milder, Angela Lansbury, Regis Philbin and Barbara Walters
Really its a shame Carol Channing wasnt granted the honor
New Broadway Theater Dec 14
2019, 08:53:13 AM
I would really like to see a set up like the national theatre with two theatres. And one of the stages being a thrust stage or flexible stage. I really wish that area next to the imperial wasn’t so astronomical to put up a theatre

Hello, Dolly 2017: the revival that got away? Dec 11
2019, 09:47:12 AM
I would have loved to see a longer run. I was hoping to see Bernadette. And thought it could have had a couple years in it. It would have been sooo much fun to watch all these icons gave their own take on Dolly in such a wonderful show. I would have loved to see Dolly Parton, Reba, Kristin Chenoweth, Chita, Patti Lupone, Queen Latifah, Betty Buckley
With those alone it could have at least doubled its run. If they all took it for 4-5 months. It’s so sad to me that it closed up shop.
Diana on broadway. How will New York respond Dec 10
2019, 12:12:21 AM
See I saw it in San Diego this year and originally I had been skeptical but after seeing the show I really did enjoy it. Of course I do go that they really do some work on it before hand. Because are moments of cringe. But really I thought of all the depictions of what happened. I think at its core it’s thw most honest on all accounts. And it really just was quite well done. And those costumes were beautiful
Broadway Real Estate for the 2019-2020 season Dec 9
2019, 12:42:18 PM
Is anyone else feeling that a lot of the theatres seem pretty well locked in for the next year. Especially the theatres typically used for musicals and I really can’t see many closing (other than set limited runs) in the next eight months except for maybe longacre being open if Diana is short lived. I could see tkam staying open for another year and doing another full cast turn around. And I doubt in the next twelve months we’ll hear anything about the palaces new tenant after renovations.
Legacy Robe Dec 6
2019, 08:46:58 AM
I was wondering how many robes are there at one time. I had noticed the lastesr one didnt seem to have at the most recent shows and some had been from a season before. Also where do these robes go when they are filled. Thanks

See I’ve wished this to be true for so long. I also wish they would reunite her with Kristin. But to me I would love to see it
Owen22 said: "Hasn't Broadway always just been a stepping stone to film and TV anyway?"
I was thinking that as well. But maybe it was just me thinking that there’s been quite and increase on the transfers over.
Jagged Little Pill preview thread Nov 28
2019, 12:09:42 AM
Was Sherie Rene Scott ever attached to this show. The other night I was watching it think what a perfect role for her. And at intermission I heard two people talking with the same thought and this was followed by a handful more comments by others while waiting.
Roles for Cheyenne Jackson to return to broadway Nov 28
2019, 12:06:55 AM
After the collapse of the Magic Mike musical. Im wondering what roles could bring Cheyenne back to Broadway. I do wonder if theyll return with Magic Mike or if thats in a sort of Rebecca state. He was in Secret Garden back a few years ago. I wonder if hed return for the remount. I wonder if hed be too mature for a role of Christian in Moulin Rouge or I think it would be interesting to see him as the father in jagged little pill with Sherie Rene Scott as the mother
Broadway actors moving to California Nov 27
2019, 11:47:35 PM
Ive noticed recently it seems that a lot of New York theatre actors have picked up and moved out to California. Was just wondering if there is some change down in New York thats led to this or if this has been happening for years and Im just non observant. Or has there been a real bridge for theatre actors now to move to film television. Just noticing Cheyenne Jackson, Kyle Dean Massey, Taylor Frey, Ben Platt to name a few that appear to have taken up residency on the west coast.
Your Top 10 Shows This Decade Nov 27
2019, 06:32:17 PM
From the shows that I’ve seen (on Broadway) this decade my top 10 would be:
Hello Dolly Next to Normal Moulin Rouge Come From Away To Kill A Mockingbird Oklahoma revival Newsies Billy Elliot Color Purple Dear Evan Hansen
Ahmy said: "I'd love to see one about Celine Dion.."
Me too. And apparently there is something in the works for a musical. From one of the former Cirque creatives. He joined her team back a couple years ago. But I think it could be quite interesting. Especially if done in her quirky style. Almost like a rocket man But it could be touching as well
Male roles with alternates Nov 25
2019, 05:11:06 AM
Just wondering if there have been male roles with alternates that covered the role once or twice a week like in the case as dolly Levi or Christine daae or Tina.
