I think "Being Alive" will have a MUCH deeper meaning than it did pre-pandemic. Bobby Conte Thornton said this in an interview that I watched last year during the shutdown. I know it won't happen,but my fantasy is Katrina Lenk singing "We are alive" as the last line. I wonder if she and the audience will get a bit emotional when she sings the actual last line?

I'm imagining that in the opening scene of Wicked after Glinda's "It's good to see me" and the audience goes wild for like 5 minutes that rather then continue with her normal "No need to respond" she instead says something along the lines of, "No go on... keep going..." and they start up with another long cheer fest.
I also hope to see as many shows as possible record and release their opening moments and curtain calls from that first night back because that is some positive energy I need in my life right now.

I just giggle-snorted. Honest, this totally seems like stunt casting they would try to pull, even if he has the speech delivery of someone who has taken a few blows to the head...

I get literal chills thinking about hearing the Phantom singing (well... we know) "sing once again with me our strange duet" in a theatre

The day after Chicago reopens, Fran and Barry will head off to the Big Theater in the sky and the production will finally close.

Which only makes him hotter to me. I'd buy a ticket to see him as Billy Flynn.

I like the part where they head off to the big theatre in the sky. Why does the show have to close? It can finally get some decent producers that don’t support toxicity and a horrible working environment
