WHATTTT?!?!?!

Bombshell Production Still in the Works? (SMASH fans out there unite!) Jul 11 2018, 05:20:57 PM

It seems Bombshell isn't dead after all (despite the upcoming Some Like It Hot, which many seemed to think was a compromise). Craig Zadan just teased on Twitter...

A BRONX TALE Sets Closing Date Jun 27 2018, 06:38:34 PM

Final performance August 5th. It's had a very nice run and I'm guessing it'll recoup on tour if it hasn't already.

What's next for the Longacre?

Why did Tuck Everlasting bomb so bad? Jun 25 2018, 12:47:50 PM

Quite honestly, I think it was the worst thing I've ever seen on a Broadway stage...and that's including other travesties like the Gigi and Guys and Dolls revivals.

Jordan Catalano said: "Intermission now. That was a very long first act. The audience is absolutely eating it up but I really want to go home. Besides Peppermint who’s been onstage for maybe 10 minutes so far and the ALWAYS incredible Rachel York, nothing on that stage is holding my interest. It’s as if the show was directed so that most of thesongs need to all be sung in a way to elicit a chorus of “YAAAAS QUEEN” from the audience. I’m just so confused

Brantley is mixed with a slightly negative edge.

First review is out... it’s positive and basically says the show is a big crowd pleaser, but notes the mediocre score.

HALF TIME at Paper Mill - Reports Jun 12 2018, 06:29:25 PM

Curious to see reviews after tonight...specifically the NYT. That will probably be the determining factor as to if this production will transfer.

Tina Fey. Can’t believe she didn’t win.

MOULIN ROUGE - new songs? Jun 4 2018, 06:16:33 PM

Nice, I think someone had said earlier that "Firework" by Katy Perry is also being used.

BroadwayBen said: "I liked it when I saw it in Chicago, and thought it had good potential. Does anyone know what changes they have made? I know Donna McKechnie is now in the show."

From a BWW interview with Jerry Mitchell...

How has this production changed at all from when it premiered in Chicago?

Well, we've got five new songs. There was a character that was really missing its whole arc and we had to go back and examine that. We al

Anyone going?

Upcoming Pre-Broadway Musicals May 22 2018, 07:36:12 PM

Half Time begins previews at Paper Mill on May 31st and runs thru July 1st. I'd heard a fall Broadway opening was being targeted.

Perhaps BOMBSHELL? I hope.

OOTI or Carousel? May 6 2018, 11:20:51 AM
Do not see CAROUSEL...the production is utterly abysmal. Definitely go for OOTI, as I think it will run through the dates your trip is planned for.

What is next at the Shubert? Apr 20 2018, 12:52:48 AM

I'm a bit puzzled with Hello, Dolly!'s closing announcement...very surprised. I'm guessing something big must be coming into the Shubert.

Bette Midler to return to the Tony Award-winning revival of 'Hello, Dolly!' on July 17 for a six-week run Apr 20 2018, 12:48:05 AM

Maybe add in the subject line that IT'S CLOSING! Final performance Aug. 25. Wow. Very sad to see this transcendent production close but I will be back to see Bette again.
