Just curious who people think might be attending the red carpet in a couple months. Im curious if people think Tina will fly over to be their and who else would be there. It was interesting I was surprised by the number of people who attend the Cher show opening. But then was disappointed by the lack who attended moulin rouge
Do you think people like Oprah and gayle. Elton John Celine Bette Midler would all be there? Or do you think it will be downscaled. To more broadway perform
How much are broadway actors worth Aug 19
2019, 12:21:36 AM
A topic came up today how much Broadway performers are worth. Not talking about those that move in and out between tv film concerts and broadway but those that typically are just theatre performers. Would it be safe to say that someone like Stephanie j block would have been earning about 20000 a week? And someone like Charlie Williams or Ryan Steele or Matt Doyle be warning around the 5000 a week. Or am I way off. Im just curious how difficult it is for a performer to hold down a place of th

While I do love aspects of the show. I also hope that some changes are made. Some of it plays out to be a bit of a mockery and campy.
The paparazzi song has to go. That “flash flash” song when I saw it I was appalled. And true about the f dress song and the queen singing a verse
I think it really does need to be sung through ala evita because aspects get lost when we go from dialogue to song and the audience is confused how they should take it.

I was super excited to hear this For a world premiere I thought it was well done. And yes with a bit of refocusing and reworked slightly I think it could be so great. Almost six months later I’m still singing “pretty pretty girl in a bit pretty pretty dress”. Plus the costumes are stunning

Beyonce, Rihanna and Lady Gaga would like to have a word with you about that."
Clearly you avoid reading what’s in the brackets. It said for the most part. And I mean I would love to test the longevity of the three you mentioned. IMO only one of those would have the same capacity to sustain a notable place in history
Are we nearly at the end of an era for our great musical divas? Aug 9

Unfortunately I think that we are at the end (at least for this foreseeable era). I think in the same way that pop music has (for the most part) lost its divas. Long gone are the days where icons like Celine Cher Bette Madonna Tina Dolly Barbra were born. And in the same sense I think that with a lot of the shows being created because they are relying on already familiar markets and more laid out to feature the big budget spectacle. I don’t think it’s allowed so much for these “divas” to be born
Musicals recorded live Aug 4

Im looking to add some DVDs or recordings to show a music class (grade k-5) authentic broadway or west end shows and was wondering if people had a list of recommendations. Im wanting to show good quality musicals that theyd enjoy and hopefully expose them to stories that are new to them. (So. Im looking to stay away from things like shrek the musical or high school musical. Or much of the Disney mainstream canon.). Thank you for your suggestions
