Profile for TheatreFan4

This one looks like neither a self portrait or a caricature. It's kind of like if you took caricature attributes and painted them as "realistic". Just ugly all around lol.

Well, I care about what I visit and pay money for. I see neurodiverse people in every show, so that is not what is going to attract me to this particular production."

You were never going to see this show so you can save it. 

Seb28 said: "But I do have some questions about it. Everyone is neurodiverse to a certain extent. Who is going to determine if you are neurodiverse enough? Will people be rejected because their level of neurodiversity is too mild? And do people actually want to watch a show where this is the main casting criterion?"

I would leave that to... the casting director? I don't know, just seems a little weird to even care this much.

Do Neurodivergent and disabled people just not deal with AIDS or Drug Addiction? I have some information for you... 

blaxx said: "Neurodivergent, we are all neurodiverse.

And what does that have anything to do with ReNt?"

They're a Neurodivergent and Disability centered Theatre Company so that's how they cast the show. That's it.

No because it depends on who is in the audience at the moment.

I won lotto for tomorrow night lol. 

I mean, didn't people say the same thing about Shrek and it's playing in every school and regional production in the country. ****, they put out an ugly as sin tour with head band shrek ears. You can always bring down the costs of a production once it's off Broadway.

What’s Pink’s skill set and history in hosting? Besides the Kelly Clarkson show?"

Literally who gives a ****? She's a fun personality. 

I just feel like it's absolutely insane that nobody in the production thought about this stuff when building the show instead being in shambles after you're already in performances. You needed to set the standard for what to expect WELL BEFORE you started selling tickets!

They could have done that successfully without a Broadway run."

TBH, I think it'd really hit in the Non-Equity Tour markets without this. Menopause The Musical style. 

Is the hope for this production to tour and license it for regional productions? Surely they don't think recouping in 16 weeks is a possibility?

I think Pink is a great choice. The idea that the Tonys Host should be someone who has explicitly performed on Broadway before is so silly. They're not the same skill set... like at all... 

 

Though I do expect Jinkx will host at some point in the near future.

I just don't think anybody in these roles can really entice me to see this production again. Not that I'd be traveling to London anyway, but if it was Broadway casting. I feel they've just completely run out of steam in their choices of casting to prop up a weak production.

The community that wishes nothing to do with you.
