Legally Blonde MTV Recording  Oct 18 2018, 12:31:08 PM

I would too, but as this thread debated previously wasn't the contractual issues very foggy about this when it came to releasing this for home video format. (I'd say dvd, but at this point I'd hope to get it on netflix)

I could of sworn though that the contracts for the filming of Legally Blonde were so tightly written in legal-jargon that MTV was even limited in the number of times they could play it on their schedule. It was the first of the modern musicals "filmed l


A Star Is Born - Broadway 1.0  Oct 18 2018, 11:48:49 AM

If Bradly Cooper's 2018 A Star is Born is adapted for Broadway, and the script and current musical structure is kept intact, but they add a few new songs to the script I've got to ask: Would it be considered a musical?

In my opinion it would be a play with music, as the musical numbers are all diagetic and don't so much advance the plot as they comment on it. It would have more in like with other plays with music Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill&nbs


So Bradley Cooper Should Definitely Do The Next To Normal Film W/ Toni Collette, Right?  Oct 15 2018, 03:56:22 PM

Rob Reiner has openly said he wants to take a crack at Next to Normal, but the show is just so at innately theatrical it would be difficult to figure out how to shoot it so that it doesn't look staged.



Will Heathers Transfer?  Oct 15 2018, 01:43:54 PM

Heathers won't transfer until Mean Girls is on its last legs or closes. Yes the two are completely different takes on the teen genre, with Mean Girls a satire of 80's and 90s teen movies, while Heathers is a dark teen comedy, but both are lumped into the teen musical genre. Every decade has their culture defining teen girl world  movie. The 80s was a boom for the genre but outside of the John Hughes movie

Did anyone go to the Dear Evan Hansen novel event?  Oct 10 2018, 11:20:27 AM

Lady Gaga-Funny Girl-WOW  Oct 8 2018, 02:54:53 PM
I’m a Hollywood studio would happily buy out part or all of her Vegas residencey contract if they want her for a big blockbuster. (Aka Disney for Ursula, Cruella de Vil, Meg, or The Evil Queen or one of countless other characters in a Disney live action fairytale)

WICKED 15TH ANNIVERSARY CONCERT  Sep 27 2018, 10:57:05 AM

My question is why are they using the Marquis Theater, when they can either film it at an actual concert hall, or use the Gershwin? Considering the set of Wicked (By Set I mean the Dragon Clock setup and bubble), is on par with Phantom's chandelier or Miss Saigon's Helicopter I wonder what they are going to do for a set.

RoadGypsy2010 said: "quizking101 said: "Part of me wants to think most of the capacity drops are because last week had the Broadway Week 2-For-1 sales that put extra butts in the seats..."

That would seem to be true for Harry Potter - which sawtheir gross drop by $450K but their capacity remain at 100%. But for Wicked, there was a 20% drop in attendance but only a $150K drop in Gross. If the 2-for-1 were putting butts in seats at all theatres, then the W


Does Mary Poppin’s West End revival spell Trouble for Frozen  Sep 13 2018, 06:15:40 PM
So Disney’s first revival on Broadway or the West End will be Mary Poppin’s next fall after Aladdin finishes a 3 year run. This honestly makes me think that Disney’s view on Frozen’s current prospects aren’t that good. One would think Frozen would be Disney’s first thought in a show to open in the West End after Aladdin, or am I wrong? I know Disney doesn’t have the best track record with West End transfers, but it just seems weird that a revival of Mary Poppins will be Disney’s next production

Is  Sep 11 2018, 10:44:59 PM
The Gershwin Estate needs a revival of Crazy for You as soon as possible before the Gershwin catalogue starts going into public domain within the next 4 years with the entire catalogue being public within the next 15 years leaving the estate only with Crazy for You, Nice Work, “The Girshwin’s” Porgy and Bess, and An American in Paris as income. Considering Crazy for You is the best recieved of the 4, they will want to remind people of its existence so that they can still get money from regional

What’s wrong with The Addams Family is  Sep 10 2018, 11:14:58 AM

One of the biggest problems the creative team faced, which they have mentioned subsequently,  was that they had a set production timeline, and weren't able to deviate from it. After Chicago many involved wanted to go back to the drawing board, do some rewrites, workshop it some more, and do another out of town tryout, before bringing it to Broadway. The problem was that the producing team already had a theater, and didn't want to wait on bringing the show to Broadway. Add to that

Ryan McCartan is Wicked's Next Fiyero  Aug 30 2018, 11:37:47 AM

Wicked hasn't "stunt casted" since arguably 2006?

After Menzel and Chenoweth  left there were a series of "stunt castings' of former TV stars (Ana Gasteyer as Elphaba, Rue McClanahan  and Carol Kane as Madame Morrible) , former teen idols  (Joey McIntyre as Fiyero, Jenna Leigh Green as Nessarose, and Randy Harrison as Boq) , and Broadway legends (Ben Vereen and George Hearn as The Wizard). This all appeared to stop in 2007, whic


RE: Hello Dolly on Great Performances?  Aug 30 2018, 10:08:31 AM
I heard a rumor that the way Rudin enticed Bette into coming back was by promising her an oscar for her performance. So it will be screened in an awards qualifying run in December, followed by a limited release on Christmas day.

After Bruce, who?  Aug 28 2018, 12:19:37 PM

If she didn't already have Beautiful I could easily see Carole King taking up a Broadway run, either alone or with James Taylor. 

If she wasn't already spread so thin, and had the time to do a sit down stripped down show, I could see Dolly Parton being an amazing stripped down Broadway concert. She is arguably the best female song writer of the 20th century, and has some amazingly heartwarming stories to tell. The problem is shes already realized this, a


Ain't Too Proud Officially Heading to Broadway  Aug 24 2018, 11:28:23 AM
I guess Tina officially isn’t transferring this season now.
Add to that I think if we called the 2017-2018 the season of the theme park musical , 2018-2019 is officially the season of the jukebox. We already have Head over Heels, and The Cher Show, now Ain’t to Proud, Jagged Little Pill looks likely to transfer, King Kong was originally supposed to be a jukebox, if the Crazy for You revival opens that would make it 5. Am I missing any others that are circling Broadway at the monent?

Laura Benanti to replace Lauren Ambrose in MY FAIR LADY  Aug 23 2018, 11:23:31 AM
I can’t remember anybody campaigning this hard for a role since Rosie O’Donnell wanted to be a replacement for Ms Hannigan in Annie, but this time it actually worked. I had no desire to see this before other then to see the always wonderful Mr Butz, but now I am willing to even pay full price to see Ms Benanti.

I honestly wonder if Lincoln Center Theater finally realized with this production that they don’t need tv/film stars to sell their lavish rivials, unlike Roundabouts typical uni


Frozen Lottery  Aug 22 2018, 10:56:24 AM

If the extreme obstruction is to be believed, it might explain why Frozen has been hovering at 98.9-99.9% capacity despite being consistently above 100% gross potential all summer. I've honestly wondered why its only hit 100 capacity during 3 of its 26 weeks so far. Yes I know reviews and word of mouth have been "meh" to luke warm at best, but I would think if that were the case it would prevent more then roughly 20 seats a night going unsold. If those se
