Broadway Cares Fall Red Bucket Collections  Oct 26 2018, 01:20:57 PM

OOTI 

- buttons for the four gods (and I believe Ti Moune as well) $5 each or $20 for all five

- "Agwe don't flood my garden" umbrellas, I believe it was $40

- Asaka aprons, I believe it was "Mamma Will Provide" I believe $60

- backstage tour led by Alex for $300

- signed posters and a few more such things



It's time to talk about Bootleg culture, kids.  Oct 26 2018, 01:17:54 PM

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.



Recent Experience with Come From Away Rush ??  Oct 26 2018, 01:14:11 PM

PLAYBILL Covers of the 2018-2019 Season  Oct 24 2018, 11:38:34 AM

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. 



What is still to be announced for 2018-19 season ?  Oct 23 2018, 04:31:49 PM

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.

Amber did s


"Original" Musicals  Oct 23 2018, 02:01:50 PM

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


What is still to be announced for 2018-19 season ?  Oct 23 2018, 01:10:26 PM

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.

Hamilton Cancellation Line  Oct 22 2018, 01:52:17 PM

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


Once on This Island lottery  Oct 22 2018, 01:48:17 PM

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


Making a flight at JFK after a show  Oct 19 2018, 02:57:40 PM

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.

2019 Tony Rulings Round 1  Oct 19 2018, 11:23:44 AM

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. 



Dear Evan Hansen: The Novel BN SIGNED (SELLING)  Oct 18 2018, 12:42:06 PM

Wick3 said: "As I always say... it's only worth whatever price a customer is willing to pay. Who knows... 50 years from now that book may be worth a lot more than $60!"

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

Touring production prices  Oct 18 2018, 10:01:26 AM

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



Anastasia or Beetlejuice with 13 year old boy?  Oct 17 2018, 12:30:14 PM

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?

 

 



Cody Simpson to make Broadway debut in Anastasia as Dmitry  Oct 16 2018, 08:25:55 PM
I'm still laughing at the person on facebook who called him a "Diet Anatole"

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.


Hamilton Observations  Oct 15 2018, 01:34:10 PM

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


Will Heathers Transfer?  Oct 15 2018, 01:27:39 PM

- 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 2018, 11:49:18 AM
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
