2024 Tony Awards Apr 6

The Forbidden Broadway parody from when it opened was pretty brutal yet spot on, comparing the lyrics of Sun and Moon to that of a Hallmark card.

UK Theatre Criticized For Jul 9
2023, 09:07:59 PM
You'd be amazed how many people rock up to the theatre (or cinema etc.) with absolutely no clue what they're about to see. Also, just because it's a classic, every performance will be someone's introduction to the material.

Interesting that he ignores all the criticism that Jesus Christ Superstar got from all sides back in the day...

WGA strike impact on the 2023 Tonys May 28
2023, 09:12:16 PM
I had hoped that the writers would have been able to use this as leverage to get their work (and those of their fellow behind the scenes creatives) actively featured and recognised during the broadcast instead of being hidden in an ad break. Ah well.

ErmengardeStopSniveling said: "Phyllis wore a red jumpsuit/pants in the original production which would seem too dated nowadays, hence a c****nay-colored gown."

Menken Fan said: "I’m surprised so few of them were ever nominated for an Oscar, let alone won, especially since that seems to be the primary reason for added songs."
Because they rarely add anything of value to the movie

New Cast Album Signing In The Theater? Jan 6
2023, 09:24:12 PM
Could be SIX? It's apparently coming out on disc on February 3rd; it's popped up on Amazon and some other retailers but haven't heard any official confirmation which is a bit odd for a production that's been all about social engagement.

They should remove the two signs on either end of the awning to make up for it, that way you'd be able to better appreciate the three arches.

2022, 09:31:32 PM
I think the 'new' arrangement of Another Op'nin' suits the meta nature of the show, similar to what Rodgers and Hammerstein did with Me and Juliet
