Rebel Wilson said during her interview with Richard Ridge that she was supposed to workshop a musical that was supposed to be coming to Broadway but it fell through.. Does anybody have insight as to what show that was? She also mentioned that a director approached her to replace in a currently running show, any ideas for that?
She mentioned that she is specifically interested in originating a role, does anybody have thoughts as to what shows coming to Broadway she would be good for? Ei

Given the release date, do we think this movie will campaign for The Oscars? Any guesses on early potential nominations? Oscars 2021 are looking VERY musical with WSS, ITH and The Prom.

I've never seen or listened to In The Heights until now, and the movie looks good. My question is.. the music sounds almost identical to Hamilton.. why did everyone act like Hamilton was ground breaking and amazing when Lin literally already did that type of music with a different story? No need to be a d*ck, this is a serious question.
Does anybody have any thoughts as to who could actually be playing Ursula in The Little Mermaid? I know Melissa McCarthy is reportedly in talks, but I do not think she is a great choice. Lizzo also expressed interest online, but I think she would be okay.
My top pick 100% would be Ginger Minj. Ginger can sing, act and murder every aspect of the role. Anybody who has doubts, look at her on RPDR Season 7 performing "Eggs, eggs, eggs." She would be flawless.

Why in hell would Samantha replace Rosalie? She's totally wrong for the role.
Company would be ideal but give me Samantha Barks or Anne Hathaway instead of Rosalie Craig. If Patti does not want to transfer or is busy, who else could take her role? Meryl Streep? Christine Baranski? Christine Ebersole?

I found Annaleigh's to be the best one of the series by far, including the shows from last year. I love Cynthia Erivo but I found her concert to be painfully boring, and one note. My rankings of the shows so far:
Of any A-Listers I would certainly say Lady Gaga. Out of anybody, I think Samantha Barks is the perfect choice. I said it when she sang Defying Gravity on I'd Do Anything, but her voice has grown so much in the last 11 years that I would love to see what she does with the role.
Full Dream Cast:
Elphaba: Samantha Barks, Lady Gaga, Vanessa Hudgens
I went with Row B, still ended up paying the $399 each for the four of us going. I'm sure it will be great to see the puppet that close even if its not a great show.
I am looking to buy tickets to King Kong, and I want the best seats possible. On Telecharge they have "KONGPREM" seats for $399.00 and it is Center Orchestra, Row A. Does anyone know if that is actually a great seat? I'm not interested in hearing whether or not I should spend that kind of money on Kong, I just don't want it to be too close to the stage.
Alternatively, they have Center Orchestra, Row B for $275.00. Which would be a better seat option?
anislander said: "Probably would never happen, but Lea Michele as Jenna and Darren Criss as Dr. Pottamer would sell so well."
I have some issues with Lea Michele, but she is talented. I would easily go see this show again for this duo, and they have amazing chemistry which would be incredible. Now I can't get this idea out of my head..

I think there is alot of possibility there. She has a gap in her Vegas residency from February to May of next year.. The producers could be waiting to see how she is in A Star Is Born but have given her a temporary offer. She could win three Oscars essentially, Score, Song and Actress. I would love for that
