Ma Rainey's Black Bottom  Dec 21 2020, 03:34:08 PM

Just watched it and I absolutely loved it. It makes you realize all over again that Chadwick Boseman was one of his generation's greatest actors who we lost far too early.

Quick question: I'd read the play in Freshman or Sophomore year of college, so I had a fleeting memory of the play. Does the play allude to Ma Rainey being in a lesbian relationship with Dussie Mae? I don't remember if that was in the original script or not. I definitely thought it worked, bringing more d


I’m Bleaching My Butthole For Christmas  Dec 19 2020, 04:04:00 AM

I was about to say, "Um... Thanks for sharing, morosco."

The Ratatouille Musical is HAPPENING.  Dec 17 2020, 01:51:51 PM

They just released the creative team. It's being directed by Lucy Moss (co-creator of Six), music supervision is by Daniel Mertzlufft (made one of the first videos for the musical), produced by Jeremy O. Harris (who at this point seems like he just wants to throw his HBO money around like confetti), and will feature a 20-piece orchestra and a Broadway cast.

Any predictions for who's going to be actually performing in this thing? As I've said before, Andrew Bar


Houdini musical in development, aiming for B'way  Dec 15 2020, 06:51:22 PM

Has anyone seen the weird website?

https://www.houdinibroadwaymusical.com/

This is one of the most bizarre show sites I've ever seen. It's so incomplete, there's no reason to have this site live so early on.

It also mentions it's going to do over 20 illusions, as well as "a new appearance of an elephant on stage"? What the hell are they talking about? Is it going to be a big puppet that comes


WTF's A Streetcar Named Desire on Audible  Dec 5 2020, 10:40:12 PM
Shouldn’t audio plays, y’know, be written to be audio plays? Something like a one person show or 36 Questions, where it uses the medium well, instead of a play like STREETCAR, which relies on you looking at the actors?

What shows do you think Encores will revive 20 years from now?  Dec 4 2020, 07:18:22 PM

OlBlueEyes said: "Bandstand - I have just a thoughtthat this show may stick around to be brought back on Veterans' Day at various venues,. since I'm pretty sure that it is the only Broadway musical that tells the story of the plight of returning veterans while at the same time having lively period dance numbers by a now famous choreographer.

Of course there's a film of the original production. Not sure how that would affect matters.

I also wanted to add that Andrew Barth Feldman was BORN to play Linguine.

I really do. I was a big fan of the Spongebob cartoon and went into the show totally open-minded, no judgement. But this...I just...no. One step too far."

2020/1 Grammy Nominees  Nov 24 2020, 02:34:31 PM
I haven’t listened to all of Amelie, but from what I’ve heard, the London version is almost unrecognizable from the Broadway version, and mostly for the better.

2021 now looking bleak for potential U.S. theater reopening  Nov 22 2020, 07:46:53 PM

MattieIce2018 said: "Phantom of London said: "Why not?

Not everyone has to be vaccinated to re-open only people who are in the front line or at risk. You have a programme that vaccinate all these people QUICKLYand FREE, once completed you can re-open and collect all those sales and payroll taxes.

I am not sure in the US if the vaccine will be free or payed for by insurance? Bu being done free, would be outweighed by collecting taxes earlier.

Has anyone listened to the songs people have been posting on TikTok for the fake musical based on Ratatouille? Some of them are honestly pretty good.

Native American Performers and Creatives  Nov 18 2020, 03:09:56 PM

Larissa Fasthorse (Sicangu Lakota) is a playwright and choreographer. Her play The Thanksgiving Play made her the first Native playwright to have written one of the top ten most-produced plays in America.

OnStage Blog Picking Up Dropped NYT #MeToo Broadway Story  Nov 18 2020, 03:01:26 PM

Sutton Ross said: "They are just dumb 20 year old children who clearly don't have any background in English or journalism. They are embarrassing and I honestly hope they get sued for their IG post."

The most likely result of this is nothing. Onstage Blog's (unverified) Twitter account has less than 3000 followers. Compared to BroadwayWorld and Broadway.com's 300k+ followers each, they don't have a fraction of the eyes watching that they think the


Encores Will Present INTO THE WOODS  Nov 18 2020, 02:40:08 PM

LizzieCurry said: "Then why not something like Urinetown? Well-liked AND hasn't had a major production here in a very long time."

I would say Into The Woods fits both those criteria, to an extent. We're 6 years removed from the movie and 5 from the most recent off-Broadway revival.

 

Maybe this will be how Chad Kimball gets his groove back. Milky White's his best role to date, given that he's in a full body costum


OnStage Blog Picking Up Dropped NYT #MeToo Broadway Story  Nov 18 2020, 02:17:23 PM

Does anyone know who they're even talking about? I'm assuming since NYT didn't run the story, there probably isn't enough evidence to responsibly publish an accusation, but rumors would have gotten out otherwise.

Spike Lee to Direct Movie Musical About Viagra  Nov 18 2020, 07:24:01 AM

I was not on board until I saw that Stew and Heidi Rodewald are writing the songs. Passing Strange is my second-favorite musical of all time, and I need some new music from them yesterday.

blaxx said: "morosco said: "I'm going to give Chad the benefit of the doubt because perhaps he is experiencing some neurological or psychiatric effects after having Covid-19."

Except he was this way way before Covid. Shame on the producers if he's back in the show after this.

Way before Covid he was addicted to Adderall. Good on him for getting sober, I guess, but what's his excuse now?
