I second the Hair revival! When I saw it, the audience was having such a fun time, and then when flesh failures happened, it was like a bomb went off (pun intended? yikes). I'll never forget it.
I'll be back in the city August 10-20th. I'm not dying to see any of the shows on Broadway that will be running at that time, besides Moulin Rouge (which I can't afford). What are some other shows, concerts, performances, etc that will be going on in the city at that time?
Also, any other general suggestions/recommendations of what to do or where to go in the city will be appreciated!
Ben Platt is a good choice, but for the love of God when will someone let Brandon Uranowitz play this role? And Micaela is incredible but 25 years too young.
7. The Revolutionary War re-enactment community is a rather small one. This means one of two things: Dawn is lying about her participation, Ogie is lying about his. Both claim to have participated in the re-enactment community for well over a decade. If Dawn played the pivotal role of a Betsy Ross re-enactor, it’s highly unlikely that Ogie wouldn’t be familiar with her work. Additionally, a re-enactment injury such as Ogie’s spleen removal would hardly go unmentioned
I doubt that he would make a difference- if he does its more from Dancing with the Stars than Hamilton. Either way, I seriously hope this would be true. I would have to see the show for a 5th time.
I didn't see the show in Atlanta and I don't know a whole lot about it, but I was speaking to a member of the cast last week and they told me that a lot of work and changes had been made for the Broadway transfer and there have been a few cast changes (I don't know who). I'm rooting hard for the show though- it already has the support of the younger stan crowd and I'm always in support of original theatre. Not to mention that its got a great cast (Beth Leavel AND Brooks As
As of last week, theyre in final rounds of callbacks for ensemble and well into callbacks for leads, and theyre heavily considering fresh faces. I'm rooting for rachel too!
I feel like I've raved about him so many times on this website, but until he gets the recognition he deserves- John Rapson as Javert in the Les Mis revival was unreal. I still think about it all the time and its been years.

When I saw Once On This Island last week, there was a woman a few rows behind me who was yelling "ALEX, ALEX" over and over again at Alex Newell during the preshow when the actors are walking around, kind of interacting with the audience IN CHARACTER. When the ushers asked her to stop, she said that it was okay, she knew him, and continued to yell. Eventually, as he continued to ignore her, she said, "I guess he cant hear me" and literally screamed his name. A shush fell o
The current Once On This Island revival. I don't see shows more than once- I rarely get to the city so I try to see as many different shows as possible while I'm there- but as I left the theater I bought tickets to see it again 2 days later. And i'd see it again if I could. The only other show I was willing to see again was Miss Saigon.
