What was being brought up in the most recent thread that was locked was the line between being a fan and being a stalker. That seems to be exactly the kind of thing that should be discussed here.
If anyone in the DC area is looking for a new musical with gay protagonists, check out Signature Theatre in Arlingtons new musical "Girlfriend". It is just a sweet musical about two young men finding love.
I loved her performance as Luisa. It was so understandable why Guido loved her. I found her far superior to Karen Akers who originated the part, who I didn't care for and whose voice I find grating.
I'm really surprised this show is being revived. I saw the original production and the only thing that blew me away was the performance by Ms Freilich.. The details about the play I forgot about a month after I saw it, which shows how memorable it was. If I remember the script at all, this would be better suited nowadays as a Hallmark or Lifetime movie(not a compliment). I do love reading your comments on the production though as I have no interest in seeing it.
Lindsay is a goddess said: "Though the reviews were mixed-to-negative, I don’t think I read a single unkind word about Levy and Murin. Everyone seemed to love them, so that’s at least something."
Right, that's like one of the survivors of the Titanic saying "Well, the food at least was very good."
Also, between the reviews for Margaritaville and this show, I am starting to really adore Jess Green . His best l
Jordan Catalano said: "Personally, I have little to no interest to ever see the role of Peter played by a man. That said, this show is one of my all-time favorites so I’m sure I would end up seeing any production (and this one looks thrilling) that came to town."
I'm the exact opposite - I have no interest in seeing another woman play Peter Pan again.
You will love Christian Dante White in the part. Personally, I thought he was better then Gavin Creel - who I also thought was wonderful , but Christian was even better. I don't see why the producers did not offer him the role instead of bringing Mr. Fontana in.
Amtrak actually halted all service on the northeast corridor because of the storm. I'm sure that is the main reason a lot of shows had such a bad week.

I think he would be perfect for the role, in 10 years. The role calls for a man not a boy. He is supposed to be set in his ways with a past not just starting out. And, if I remember right, he and Sally have been together for years. The original star was in his mid 40s when he played the part, Robert Lindsay was in his mid 30s when he started doing it in London. Plus, th
markypoo said: "Interestingly enough, Matthew Broderick was mentioned early on as a possible Leo Frank; back in the day when he was also being considered for the title role in the '98 revival of YAGMCB. To me, if you study the poster design for Parade, the depiction of Leo tends to resemble Matthew more than Brent Carver. Is it a stretch to say that the former could still play the role?"
Considering he has slept walked through all of his performances th
Damn, now I'll have to find a way to see it on tour. She is such a unique actress, I can't even imagine how she will do it. It will be quite the performance.
