Hunchback of Notre Dame Discussion  Apr 21 2018, 06:38:46 AM
The Parnell book is such a precipitous downgrade from Lapine's. The Papermill production was just atrocious, despite the involvement of several fine actors. It's a crime that Schwartz Jr.'s undergrad concept is baked into the show for its whole licensing future now. Such an exciting property, with such a long wait...it's just such a sad waste that it was sunk by nepotism.

Was Kristolyn Lloyd making a dig towards DEH?  Apr 21 2018, 01:03:01 AM

I think DEH actually IS specifically about a white boy.

Because nobody else could possibly get away with that crap with no consequences, much less somehow be passed off as an inspirational protagonist. 



Why no Demand for Frozen? Any Thoughts ?  Apr 18 2018, 10:21:12 AM
Probably has to do with the show utterly blowing.

Remembering Howard Ashman: See Lansbury and Orbach recording 'Be Our Guest'  Apr 12 2018, 01:36:58 PM
He was the greatest talent of his generation, a dramaturgical genius as well as a nimble and heartfelt lyricist. Honestly don't know if I can bring myself to watch this.

Worst Movie Adaptations of Plays  Apr 10 2018, 09:10:55 PM
We're talking about plays here, folks! A nice respite from movie musicals.

There have been so many, but August: Osage County does leap to mind as just a collosal waste.

I liked Rabbit Hole.

Patash, re: being surprised by criticism about the crowd overwhelming the show...The sound mix was really cleaned up for the West Coast and streaming veraions, which helped a lot. What you heard was a lot better than the original airing, where the constant cheering really did take away even from the audibility of much of the show.



...JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR LIVE Discussion Thread  Apr 2 2018, 03:27:28 PM
Idunno, I think you'd want to ride the wave of the event and its network TV audience. Doubt it was the plan. Wasn't the album advertised as available last night?

JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR LIVE Discussion Thread  Apr 1 2018, 07:56:44 PM
It's so funny that folks keep saying (lots in the other thread) that they like it even though they're not religious, or don't know if it's for them because they're not religious. This is not a religious show, folks! This is the show that was denounced from the pulpit all over the country because Judas is the good guy and Jesus doesn't come back.

Found a lost ticket in Starbucks  Mar 30 2018, 04:31:31 PM
Probably would be most helpful to bring it to the box office if you have time?

JCS reboot  Mar 29 2018, 06:45:42 PM
You're describing a remake. JCSS isn't a franchise or universe.

Hayes Theater  Mar 29 2018, 12:57:30 AM
Just wondering if anyone who has been there before and after the renovation could comment on how successful/different it is. Was always so cramped in there, with a dilapidated community theater vibe...

Frankly, if you thought the Hanukkah song was one of the highlights of the score, I find it difficult to believe you were paying very close attention.

Angels in America ending  Mar 24 2018, 10:32:51 PM

You are not alone. Certainly, some folks have always felt that the ending is too sentimental. Including some rogue directors who went their own way. But Prior is the only (confirmed) other character with AIDS in the play, and I don't mind it at all. We don't know how much longer he makes it, and I don't know how bearable the play would be without some kind of hope at the end of so many hours. We don't know anyone's fate down the road, and I think having any of the other ma

IS Telecharge Trydown?  Mar 24 2018, 07:37:52 PM
Me too. We should have an Issues With Telecharge thread pinned at the top of the board at all times.

ALLEGIANCE DVD BOX SET COLLECTOR'S EDITION  Mar 23 2018, 08:21:06 PM
Yeah, they have gotta edit that description, it's hugely misleading.

FROZEN Reviews  Mar 23 2018, 01:48:19 PM
What the hell show did all the people saying Little Mermaid was experimental see? That show did not fail because it was too theatrical.

CAROUSEL (2018) Previews  Mar 23 2018, 12:49:35 PM
Lol@shill continuously trying to explain that Joshua and Jessie have sexual chemistry. The CHARACTERS do, but...woof.

"Would you have skipped Patti Lupone in Sweeney Todd because the sets were simple?"

No, but that production had a coherent concept and worked. Simplicity isn't really the issue here.


CAROLINE Coming To London - NY To Follow?  Mar 22 2018, 10:21:47 PM

I rarely get snobby in this particular way, but I want to see a new home-grown production of this show. This is an American masterpiece. After sitting through some of the weaker British/Scottish performances in (the mostly-good) Angels, I want to see people who can do these parts with more understanding and confidence. And without weird Oklajerseyfornia accents. It's a sad commentary on the state of the stage here that we keep having to import English productions of our own theater becaus

Frozen Partial View Seats  Mar 22 2018, 09:35:48 PM
Don't worry, there's no real set or anything else to look at in this production.
