Does anyone know how much has changed since its run at the Kirk Douglas theatre in Los Angeles? I saw it a couple years ago and was wondering if anyone knew if there were a lot of changes implemented since then.
It was bound to happen eventually given it's positive receptions in both LA and here in NYC in it's concert version. Glad it's sooner rather than later. It's going to be a strong Tony contender.
It's the year of the Off-Broadway to Broadway musical:
Yank Scottsboro BBAJ
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert
Between this and the technically BEST new musical of last season (SCOTTSBORO) both transferring so early in this season, we are off to a fantastic start!!
The thing about this is they are going to need a very strong marketing team. It could sweep the Tony's, but it has to wait like 9 months for the award show to happen. Can it last that long? Only time will tell.
What the frackity frack! I didn't watch it here in LA since I didn't hear much about it. Although when I heard about the success it was having in NY, I so wanted to see it! Unfortunately, I couldn't get tix on the day I wanted to go because it was SOLD OUT! Now that it's opening on Broadway on 9/21, I still won't be able to see it because I'll be there from 9/9-9/12! UGH!! 3 STRIKES OUT! I really hope it lasts until the next time I'm there.. maybe during the holiday season?? =O/
Actually, I would not be suprised if it cut both or one of the Wed shows and put a Sunday 7 or 8pm preformance and maybe a Mon nite with Dark on Wed altogether.
But you might be right on with the Ladies who lunch!
Whatever DF
