Hi Everyone,
I was just on the John F. Kennedy Center's website and they have announced their broadway season for 2008/2009. I was kind of disappointed with the choices because I was hoping for Jersey Boys and a few others 
Maybe they will come to Baltimore. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. The shows are as follows but I could not find the exact dates yet: Blanche and Beyond; Frost/Nixon; Giant; Legally Blonde; Ragtime; Spring Awakening; and The Color Purple (which Baltimore is already getting in April/May). Anyone know anything about the broadway season for Baltimore Hippodrome yet? Have a great day everyone.

Posted: 3/11/08 at 2:52pmIs it their own production of Ragtime? If so, that's pretty exciting.

And you never know if Jersey Boys will be part of
BROADWAY ACROSS AMERICA
-- they took over Washington DC last year --
"Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around."

Posted: 3/11/08 at 9:23pmA brand new production of Ragtime, wonderful news.
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

Posted: 3/11/08 at 11:30pmThis is pleasantly surprising. I have been disappointed by the lack of risks the Kennedy Center has taken in the last few years (The Lion King? Really did we need that this season). The third generation concerts sound very appealing. I just hope they cast appropriately (especially for my beloved Side Show). I am definitely looking forward to a full production of Ragtime and hope they spare no punches. The Victoria Clark cabaret is also very good news for me.
