Was speeding by in a cab past the St. James and there was a yellow marquee being put up.... is this for a movie? I may have misspelled the name. Looks like they were loading in too.

I saw this yesterday too, my initial thought was that it was for a movie/tv show too! It doesn't look like a real show, no phone numbers to call for tickets, producers, other important info etc. Any one know anything further?

I couldn't find anything on IMDB or google.

They have been shooting a movie there for the past two weeks.
A majority of it was shot on the roof the first week and last week had some exterior shooting, hence the full-on branding of the theatre. And I saw a large crowd of well-dressed extras in line. So I'm assuming they were shooting some audience stuff on Friday.

It has a slightly period look to it. And the signs said something like 'Winged Man' as the title. I can't remember exactly.
The face on the marquees doesn't look familiar to me. Anyone recognize him?

It looked like Michael Keaton, but I wasn't close enough to be positive.

Pretty sure it is Michael Keaton, judging by the cast list and plot summary on IMDb.

It's been discussed on this board.

What We Talk About When We Talk About Love
Words don't deserve that kind of malarkey. They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good anymore…I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little.
