THE GREAT GATSBY Opening Night Critics’ Reviews  Apr 25 2024, 09:45:49 PM

A not-so-subtle dig at Back to the Future at the end of that.


MOTHER PLAY Opening Night Critics’ Reviews  Apr 25 2024, 09:44:49 PM

Paulson vs. McAdams vs. Lange for Best Actress may be the buzziest category of the awards this year.

Well, it has a dramatic structure and even interpolated transcripts and news reports from what I can recall. It's not a book in the traditional sense, but it's a book. The work is credited as "developed by Alex Timbers," so I imagine he is the


Canceled Productions That Eventually Happened?  Apr 25 2024, 05:38:45 PM

I honestly had forgotten COVID-affected productions like The Minutes, Hangman, Sing Street, etc. I kind of file those under “Unprecedented Times” in my mind. 


Des McAnuff will direct Cash bio-musical, THE BALLAD OF JOHNNY AND JUNE, at La Jolla (May-July 2024)  Apr 25 2024, 05:25:47 PM

This sure does seem like a show that would happen.

Surprising that they'd close the day of the Tony Awards.

I feel like she still has to be, but she's also not on my list right now. I have Kelli, Gayle, Maleah, Maryanne, and Shaina right now. I guess maybe Eden knocks out Shaina, but Suffs was just SOOO much better received than Lempicka...

I mean, of those names, I think Gayle is the weak link and obvious out regardless of the role.


2024 Tony Predictions  Apr 25 2024, 02:46:29 PM

Featured Actor in a Play seems like a great category for a pickup for Stereophonic, a highly beloved production that, by virtue of being an ensemble piece, can't really dominate the acting categories.


Canceled Productions That Eventually Happened?  Apr 25 2024, 01:04:16 PM

The discussion over whether My Son’s a Queer would/could eventually happen on Broadway got me wondering if there was any precedent for a production that was canceled ever actually being successfully mounted on Broadway? I’m referring specifically to productions like MSAQ, Room, or Nerds, in which the marquee was up, rehearsals were happening, and tickets were being sold when the plug was pulled, not “Broadway bound” shows out of town or in development th

I feel like Eden has a great deal of industry support and goodwill behind her to prevent a snub.

The content or quality of MSAQ is largely irrelevant here. When a production implodes before it starts its ticketed performances, it has nothing to do with the quality of the show itself and everything to do with the producers. Once it happens, it marks the production as risky or toxic in the eyes of prospective investors and is nearly impossible to bounce back from. Producers can verbalize intentions all they like- that’s basically their job, and it’s not like they will admit fai


ILLINOISE Reviews  Apr 25 2024, 09:47:00 AM

Illinoise seems far closer to something like Movin' Out than anything else.

Let's be real: MSAQ is not ever coming to Broadway.

They're not super comparable. This is a 12-week run happening very quickly after it closes a commercial run at the Lortel and has the benefit of a huge amount of hype and demand. [tos] transferred to Broadway almost two years after it ended its run at the Vineyard. And although Oh, Mary is a small show, it has far more room to scale up than [tos] doe

I was having the same issue until it suddenly just worked. No idea what’s going on but it seems like a Telecharge issue.

They did, per a friend who attended

Oh, if you’re in the mezz, you’ll likely be fine wherever you are.

When I saw it at the Lortel, I was very far on house left- basically just a seat or two away from the wall- and had no problem seeing anything except a little bit of the action at the very


OH MARY! Officially Transferring to Lyceum Theatre this Summer - 12 Weeks  Apr 24 2024, 10:12:32 AM

Looks like there's a virtual queue for these tickets already.

 

Edit: I am not able to actually purchase anything- once I select a seat and hit Next, nothing happens.
