Pink is going to put on a thick Cajun accent that nobody will understand and nobody else in the cast uses.

I just don't understand the financial irresponsibility of this if it is true. You're going to hang an entire revival on two people who have never worked on stage before let alone in a project with the relationship is just so damn weird...

WorldWithoutYou said: "Valentina does have Rent Live and the In the Heights film on her resume, so on paper she may appear to be more qualified than someone like Plasma, Suzie Toot, or Myki Meeks, even if we all know there would be better choices."Valentina was around the world horrible in Rent and she had two lines in In The Heights. If we're using words on a page as a literal "on paper" meaning sure, but it sounds like insane malpractice on a casting director's part.

Kad said: "The thing is, I don't think Valentina will be getting many people to buy tickets. She is not a big draw, has always been limited in terms of her skill set, and was never really able to capitalize on her extremely memorable initial run on Drag Race 9 years ago (because what made it memorable was not anything that you'd want to buy a ticket for). So it's kind of weird they went with her. Even if they were sourcing solely from Drag Race contestants, there are plenty of other, more cap...

BrodyFosse123 said: "Don’t know in was fantasy you’re living in but the cast of the show do their own make-up and hair personnel place the wigs on them. Per union policy, a dresser helps them dress. All actors on Broadway do their own make-up and prep their own hair for the wig cap."It is not an across the board rule. Jellicle Ball has makeup artists, Wicked (obviously) has an artist for Elphaba. It has to do with whether the person has the pull to demand someone do their makeup or if logisti...

Im glad its for a good cause, but $60 for an unsigned Playbill that you can get for under $10 at the Flea Market...

John Adams already said it, but the point of my comment was that if these dances are impossible to do regularly without risking injury, isn't because dancers can't be expected to do demanding choregography 8 shows a week but because this specificchoreography hasn't been designedin a way that it is possible to execute regularly without riskinginjury.I meannnnnn Cats was notorious for in...

ColorTheHours048 said: "Drag Race’s Valentina is joining the cast as Columbia starting July 21st. (Given her track record, expect to see a lot of Larkin and Caleb.)"Her issue isn't showing up, its that she takes forever getting ready. I would hope with people getting her ready that would be less of an issue...Columbia doesnt exactly need to be a strong singer so that may be fine...

Just another dig at Sean Nyberg and his "👏PAY 👏 FULL 👏 PRICE" ****. Jellicle Ball had a higher average ticket price than Wicked this week.

ColorTheHours048 said: "Sean Nyberg is also lurking in comment sections and taking to his Instagram stories to blame “the community” (whatever that actually means) for not “showing up” and buying full- price tickets. As if we didn’t turn out in droves to support it at PAC 2 years ago. He should be looking into how to reduce costs for audiences and actually make Broadway a place people can afford to visit less discerningly."Actually he can't do that because he's not a producer who actually has...

EDSOSLO858 said: "Statement from ALW this morning on his Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/p/DaxlrZWDDHj/?img_index=1"Put your money where your mouth is and fund a cast recording, Andrew. I know shows can't run forever on handouts from rich people, but you can absolutely finance a record of this production for the public.

PipingHotPiccolo said: "mad respect for Andre de Shields doing this at 80--its impressive and he has a stage presence that is remarkable.but i, too, was nervous he was going to fall over most of the time he was on stage--if that was intentional acting, ok, but it was distracting. and every night, Sydney Harcourt helps him down those stairs during the curtain call, and i think thats just because hes 80."Listen, if him falling was a concern he wouldn't be able out there throwing ass on the stag...

When it comes to principals who never missed a show I think it's Junior, Dudney, Garnett and Ken (latter two only missing their roles when they were covering another one).

Kad said: "Andre DeShields is not “unsteady on his feet”- he’s still enviably spry. He is clearly playing up his age for much of the show and then cuts loose during the curtain call/encore.""My Legs may tottery...I Must go slow...And be careful of Oldddddddddddd Deuteronomy"If Andre wasn't spry there was no way he could finish out being the last moment of the show and then be back out on stage in an entire new grandiose costume for the curtain call in under 2 minutes.Plus he's only missed... ...

An incredible shame. Managed to get a few last TDF tickets for my friend and I for Wednesday night.

We don’t need his lies on this board."Bitch, you have had 15 different accounts here that you've used to harass people in their DMs. You should not be calling anyone unhinged you psychotic c*nt.John Adams Said: So, that's the "panic run on ticket sales" I mentioned in Post #21. You're hoping your post will make that a reality?Why are you twisting every word he says into thinking Quiz King is doing something wrong? He's getting word out to his community ...

ACL2006 said: Diehard fans need to realize they would have to bring in a few thousand people to save a show. a single person rushing to see a show potentially closing won't save it."Again, why are we taking everything someone says completely literally. He literally just said he wants to keep supporting the show. That's all.

John Adams said: "TheatreFan4 said: "So people are just bitching for bitching sake, rather than the OP actually doing anything wrong..."So... How'd that post work out for quizking do 'ya think?
