It's disrespectful both to the people on bww (for all the reasons listed) and to the culture of bootlegs themselves. It's like the golden rule, guys. Do. Not. Post. Publicly.
I do like the comparison to going out and shouting about weed. While most people won't condemn you for indulging in private, that's where it should stay.
Man have Waverly Gallery heard of mock ups or? Some way of deciding whether they like a photo before it goes to the printers?
Seeing The Prom playbills in person/as actual physical playbills is giving me mixed feelings about it. It's a LOT of whitespace. But as playbills usually have zero whitespace (or at least, it's never white), it does make them stand out.
I was told in January from someone working on the Edmonton production of Hadestown (In a capacity that makes me trust their information) that they were absolutely not considering CITS anymore and were really keen on a more traditional staging.
From what I have heard around here, that seems to have changed. No idea how accurate that information is, but my information is old so it is definitely possible that they decided they didn't like the proscenium set up.
I think it's a good way to point out that when people complain about wanting "original musicals" what they really want is originality. We want shows that have something new to say.
Hamilton is based off historical events/a biography, but the show has something new to say and is not comparable to the experience of reading the biography. Great Comet is based off a book - in fact includes a significant amount of the show being exact quotes from the book - yet
Hadestown is still, supposedly, intending to come this spring. I would expect Girl From North Country as well. Jagged Little Pill and Moulin Rouge seem to be next season. Dreamgirls seems dead in the water at this point.
Rumour now says that Hadestown is looking at CITS again, which is definitely a change of course since last year but would make sense. It would suggest that they're waiting for Once On This Island to announce a January closing before announcing they're taking th

Corbin Bleu,Michael Salazar, Brooks Ashmanskas or Chris Sieber, Beetlejuice &Ain't Too Proud might have a few? And if COMPANY and HADESTOWN move, "Jamie" and Patrick Page will be eligible."
I think Patrick Page would be a lead along with Ambe
SRO are offered usually to the cancellation line, just prior to curtain. Back when there was a lot of data kept about such thing (about a year ago) people were tracking that they offered around 3-5 SRO tickets when they did offer them. They didn't always have them. No idea what it's like now, if that's gone up or down.
They're $40 and are obstructed, you do not see the second level. 95% of the show happens on the first level though, so the only big thing y
I did the lotto on Saturday evening. Decent crowd, we were all informed that there would be no seats offered, 20 SRO only. Most people still entered. They then announced that there would be 10 seated tickets and 28 SRO.
Everyone got in (many people put their names in and then left? So they did not receive tickets and another name was called). I got SRO, great view, absolutley worth it for $49
Oh, and two people gave up their wins once they realised they had entered and won the l
You CAN do it - it's not impossible - but I wouldn't risk it. Running head-long through an airport, about to miss your flight, is not a great way to spend the last day of your vacation.
If Hadestown still transfers as planning, whoever ends up playing Eurydice will end up leading. Not a big enough role to be nominated, in most seasons, but eligible.

based on the trends of broadway merch pricing, it's going to be worth the most in the next 6m-1year from now. I have seen very few items increase in value, just decrease and people move on to the next thing.
But yeah, if people are willing to pay $60, $60 is what it is worth
my local tour stop has zero discounts for broadway tours, ever (No rush, no standing room, no student discount, etc). It sucks. I've looked at prices for shows before and decided to skip it, just because I'm not paying 100+ for that show when I can get it for $40 in NYC
I would check and confirm you are comfortable showing him the content of beetlejuice, 13 may be too young for it depending on his maturity level and what he is used to.
In addition, if he has not shown an interest in female-lead story-lines than it wouldn't be a good choice to start with a pricey show. Can you name any properties he likes that have a woman or girl as the main character? Matilda, Hunger Games, etc?
Anastasia fans might be upset, but they're not really the target market for this. They already like the show. They've already seen the show. They will likely buy tickets again (because it's their favourite regardless of who is playing Dmitry, to see Christy before she goes, etc). Their target market is fans of Cody Simpson who will now buy a ticket to see him in it.
Unfortunately, the system used in london (paperless ticketing) is illegal in new york so it's not an option for them. Hamilton has certainly been at the forefront of all the anti-scalping measures lately though, they're pretty passionate about it.
I've been pretty uniformly delighted in the cast members who have been unknowns. It's clear there ARE people out there, and with a property as hot as Hamilton they're lining up for the chance. What they need to s
- there was 100% a video bootleg of BMC. Heathers also has multiple video bootlegs, up to and including workshops that predate the off broadway run.
- I think it could be successful on broadway with some reworking. Better direction, better sets, etc. The score is pretty good, not uniformly excellent but has some standouts.
- Probably not any time soon, as noted they are making good money licensing and Mean Girls would be direct competition.
Do shows see each other as competitors? Oct 12

My experience producing content in similar situations is that it really depends on the individual. I have been at theatre festivals where I've said "oh you're the competition!" In a joking way and got a blank look and "I mean if you want to think about it that way..." in return. There are definately people who see it as "I am going to do my thing, and succeed or not, regardless of whatever else."
I am an A type personality. It seems foolish to me not to consider how other shows will inf
