Ivo Van Hove to direct stage adaptation of The Shining  Aug 22 2019, 01:33:18 PM

carolinaguy said: "Call_me_jorge said: " Plus broadway doesn’t have many horror shows"

There's a reason for that. Horror is best left to film, as the Carrie and Misery stage versions attest.
"

There are some great horror shows. Sweeney Todd, Alistair McDowall's plays like X and Pomona. You could call the works of Sarah Kane horror, like B


Next projects by successful musical writers?  Aug 20 2019, 10:36:56 PM

Jessryn said: "little_sally said: "Isn't Jeanine Tesori also writing an opera of Lincoln in Bardo?"

According to the article I found Tesori is composing the opera Grounded and the other female composer the Met commissioned, Missy Mazzoli, is working on Lincoln in the Bardo.
"

I remember hearing Tesori was also writing an opera about Eugene O’Neill with a libretto by Tony Kushner.

I think the new musical Jeanine Tesori is working on with David Lindsay-Abaire is an adaptation of his play Kimberly Akimbo



Miss You Like Hell  Aug 20 2019, 11:17:41 AM

I just gave the show a listen, and I'm really not a fan. The songs are okay, I guess, but they have no dramatic weight on the story. The music (and often the lyrics) feel so interchangeable. It feels like Erin McKeown wrote 20 songs, put their titles in a hat, and drew one out every time the bookwriter said they needed a song.



Wasn’t Cheno Coming Back To Bway With Like 5 New Musicals?  Aug 19 2019, 03:24:43 PM

Anyone know who's writing that Death Becomes Her musical? I remember Joe Iconis wrote a cabaret song based on the movie at some point.



West End CAROLINE OR CHANGE revival at Roundabout in 2020  Aug 19 2019, 03:09:03 PM

*tosses my wallet at Roundabout* just take it.



James Snyder:  Aug 19 2019, 11:37:45 AM

I would call him closer to a bari-tenor, since he hit some higher notes in In Transit and If/Then.

His voice is a completely different color here. It's great to hear stage actors with a multi-talented instrument.



Apparently there are worse things than cell phone usage in the theatre  Aug 17 2019, 06:52:38 PM

Where do the Actors on National Tours sleep?  Aug 15 2019, 10:30:56 AM

On the catwalk, right?

For real, do the producers arrange for hotels or Airbnbs, or are the actors responsible for securing their own lodging?

Jarethan said: "tjjster said: "VernonGersch said: "also, how long is the show?its still listed as TBD on the CTG website"



The play runs about 75 minutes or so.


Is he incapable of writing anything more than 75 minutes. I think of them as playlets.


"

There's nothing wrong with shorter plays. I don't think Mamet's written anything longer than an hour and a half. It's also his s


THE LIGHTNING THIEF Officially Announces Broadway Run  Aug 12 2019, 11:50:15 PM

sparksatmidnight said: "Great, I was thinking there would be no fan drama come Tony's nominations time and there is another unwanted show ignored"

Be More Chill is Hamilton compared to this show. I will be genuinely astounded if it's existence even gets acknowledged a week after it closes.



THE LIGHTNING THIEF Officially Announces Broadway Run  Aug 12 2019, 12:08:25 PM

They are actually gonna ask us to pay full price admission for a TYA show.



The Lightning Thief Bway Transfer?  Aug 12 2019, 01:22:30 AM

Teenagers are more into Broadway, but you can't put a TYA show in a Broadway house and expect it to do well

David Mamet’s BITTER WHEAT Eyeing Broadway Run  Aug 9 2019, 11:43:05 AM

Good lord. Have you ever heard of a play recouping before it's even out of previews?



Why Do the Tony Awards delete all their YouTube videos?  Aug 9 2019, 11:38:38 AM

I went to look up Andre DeShield's Tony speech today, and all the acceptance speeches and performances (except for the awards that weren't presented live) have been scrubbed from the Tony Awards channel. I've noticed they do this every year a few months after the awards. Anyone know why they do this?

"

Based on those numbers, do you think China Doll recouped? 12 million dollars is a lot of money, and even with Pacino's paycheck, it's only two actors and one set, so it's a low operating cost. They had to at leas


David Mamet’s BITTER WHEAT Eyeing Broadway Run  Aug 8 2019, 09:13:06 PM

I've heard the play is terrible, but it might have a chance based on names alone. If Malkovich stays with it, they could get enough pre-sales to justify a run.

There was an article about playwrights, and counting number of performances, Mamet is the most produced playwright of the 21st century, ahead of Arthur Miller and Shakespeare. He hasn't written a good play in 10 years (and hasn't written a great one in 24), but he's one of the few playwrights working tod


Best/worst stage door experience?  Aug 6 2019, 01:21:26 AM

Best: Three Tall Women. I'm a student at ISU, from which Laurie Metcalf graduated, and she came out and took a picture with all of us and talked for a few minutes about school and stuff.

Worst: Not for a show I saw, but I was in the opera Cosi fan tutte, and the student body hated it (a fact I've learned to live with - the show has some really problematic depictions of women), but I would literally see dozens of classmates in the audience every night


Favorite Show & Song From Each Composer  Aug 6 2019, 01:18:07 AM

(Disclaimer: Some of these composers, I've only seen one show or no shows from, so my picks may be lacking in some spots. Also, my favorite shows will be based on the work from the composer. Dear Evan Hansen is my favorite musical ever, but that's more because of Steven Levenson's writing than Pasek and Paul's songs, so my pick for their show will be Dogfight)

 

Rodgers & Hammerstein: Oklahoma (only show I've seen) - Cain't Say No
