NBC will present THE GRINCH musical this December starring Morrison Dec 10
2020, 03:29:52 PM
I enjoyed the scenes with the Whos but the rest was just not good. Denis seemed half interested for the most part, BooBoo was game tho. The weakest link was the title character. Morrison was horribly miscast. He's a very capable triple threat performer and I've had a crush on him since I was a kid and saw him in 'Hairspray' but he was totally wrong for the part. He seemed like he had cramps most of the show, only seemed to get better in the last 20 minutes or so. this wou

Kept waiting for Darlene Love and she was only on for like a minute. Lol. Then that announcer talked over her and Patti LaBelle when they were still singing. I guess they were only meant to be Segway segments to commercial or something. They deserved better. IMO. Glad Dolly got proper time

So, you think Broadway will re-open in March 2021? Sooner? Later? Oct 7

In response to when I think Broadway will reopen, I normally quote Madeline Khan in 'Mixed Nuts': "well I will be at your house sometime before next christmas, but that's all I have to say"

Looks like the old Times Square is rapidly disappearing. Nothing more now than a race to see what comes down next. Sadly Thanksgiving parade cancelled. 2World wars could not do it but the ruling gang in Albany and NYC governments were successful. Christmas this year should be a barrel of laughs. New Years will be a somber event.
Not looking forward to 2021."

one of my ALL TIME favorite lines in movie history was said by Dame Rigg in 'The Great Muppet Caper'
Miss Piggy : [Lady Holiday has just given Miss Piggy the entire backstory for the movie] Why are you telling me all this?
Lady Holiday : It's plot exposition. It has to go somewhere.

Dear Evan Hansen movie? Sep 2
2020, 10:29:46 PM
Is he a little old to play it convincingly? Yes, absolutely. However makeup does wonders. There was no way the producers were going to deny Platt the chance to get that EGOT title. It's one thing to play younger on stage, then to have the camera up close and all up in your face in HD, on the big screen like it will be on film. I would have much preferred a younger, undiscovered performer, but this is the casting we all knew was inevitable. While think Platt is a overhyped performer,

HogansHero said: "I agree with Jordan that once the virus is in the rear view mirror, this new rule (like all of these other silly rules being made for a scenario that I am positive will never occur) will go the way of the dodo bird. That said, it is no secret around here that if I had my way, the stage door "tradition" would also go the way of the dodo bird, and I am not convinced that that is not in the minds of whoever floated this notion.
