7 Shows/3 Days - West End Roundup Jan 24
2026, 06:08:22 PM
Operation Mincemeat - I love this show, and since it was either this or The Mousetrap for a Tuesday matinee, and I wasn’t paying £75 for the latter, I went to Mincemeat and it remains a well-oiled machine, Madeleine Jackson-Smith being the MVP as the 1st Cover Montagu. She had all the scrappy mettle of Gerianne and the d***-swinging swagger of Tash. I’ve missed seeing it in the smaller theatre, but this show has proven itself to be settling in to have a

Hey all,
I just got back from my London trip - reviews coming!
I saw Woman in Mind with Sheridan Smith and wasn’t able to stage door (matinee with quick turnaround). I tried going back on a subsequent night, but always was a little too late. Has anyone sent a program to be signed from the U.S. to the U.K?
How did you do it and were you successful?

I’ll guessthe Friday before the Tonys."
Just curious why do you think they would wait 4 months? Not sure how that close to the Tonys would help either."
I can’t imagine they want to wait too long, if only because the music (and the cast that’s singing it) is a MAJOR selling point for the show and the sni

I’m not but I know some people who are. I looked at the schedule and it seems like a lot of it was added last minute and there looks to be a lot of “filler” content like the Stage Door Experience for probably about 20-30 different people.
I’m honestly surprised with the forecast that they didn’t decide to postpone because I can already tell Sunday will be a s#/+show since the big closing is the 30th Anniversary RENT reunion concert

I had a ticket to Oh Mary I sold for Sunday (it was supposed to originally be Cheyenne’s last), but of course it was a paper ticket from the box office and now I’m trying to figure how I’m gonna square this circle unless TC can send me a digital copy of the printed ticket

I’m surprised that he’s being billed as M. Kilgore. He’s already a known entity in theatre circles and so a large part of the audience is already going to go in knowing that Mary Sunshine is actually a man in drag - which kind of deflates the gag reveal in Act II. Also, I&rs

Just in Time - Matt Morrison? Jan 22

Bleu is the better choice, IMO."
I would absolutely give this show another shot if Bleu was the new lead. (Oddly, this will be his second time as a replacement in a show at the Circle, after Godspell). I

Full Cast Announced For FALLEN ANGELS Jan 21

iluvtheatertrash said: "Consuelos? Meh. The rest sound a delight."
He’s gonna have a doozy of a time trying to host with Kelly and knock out performances. I see a lot of guest hosts and/or pre-tapes in the future. Rosie Perez struggled with it when she was doing FISH IN THE DARK and The View.
I was joking with my mother that they are about to suddenly announce Kelly in a show. Watch her end up being a guest narrator/Criminologist in ROCKY HORROR (li

Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 1/18/26 Jan 20
2026, 08:28:58 PM
I don’t think Groff has truly attained “box office attraction” status. This is his first show fresh off of winning a Tony for a critically acclaimed revival, and so he’s riding a lot of lightning from that, bolstered by a long and steady career on/off Broadway and in television.
I personally found JUST IN TIME to more or less be a 54 Below cabaret show with a blockbuster budget, and the premise is based on Groff as much as it is on Darin. (The m@sturbat0ry natur

Do you know when Kate, Robyn, and Alex’s final performances are scheduled?"
It’s on their Telecharge site, but for ease:
Robyn & Alex on 1/25. Kate on 2/1
Whitney Leavitt, Jacqueline B. Arnold, and Sophie Carmen-Jones come on 2/2 along with the new ensemblists

MJ Current Cast - Worth Seeing? Jan 19
2026, 06:48:24 AM
I went last night on a lottery win haven’t seen the show in about 2 years. (Sidebar: The Sunday night MLK weekend lottery always seems to be my lucky day because I’ve won at least one for the past 3 years).
I have to say that, even though it was the 5th show of the weekend, you wouldn’t be able to tell based on how immaculate the songs are sung and the choreography is performed. This is definitely one of the most well-rehearsed casts on Broadway today, since it feels

Beth Leavel and Matt Doyle Will Lead WHEN PLAYWRIGHTS KILL in Boston Jan 16
2026, 04:44:24 PM
JohnnyB3 said: "OMG. So I'm presuming Beth Leavel is playing the Faye Dunaway inspired character? This could be amazing."
This could be so deliciously camp. I’m wondering if this is going to be a farce-type comedy or much darker.
Side Note: I’ve been looking for a copy of his play HIGH for YEARS (it was the first Broadway drama I ever saw at 16), and I saw it was FINALLY out published.

Merkin2 said: "Why is this show never on TDF"
It never really needs to be. It’s become such an NYC institution at this point that most people will either buy full price or pick it up for a slightly higher price (than TDF) point at TKTS. They have their months of massive gains (star casting) that bolster the slower months.
Also, it’s likely that most TDF members have seen CHICAGO at this point and I doubt it would ever be listed for when

HELL’S KITCHEN To Close - Feb 22, 2026 Jan 16

Entirely possible, especially since the star casting hadn’t exactly moved the needle much. Pretty much any gains they would’ve made with the star casting was probably eaten up by the star salary.
I do wonder if Kecia is going to come back for the final month or Yolanda will extend. They might also just promote one of the understudies for the last month as a cost cutting measure.

Or Bridgett Everett?!"
If true, THEY’VE ALREADY TAKEN MY MONEY BUT TAKE MORE OF MY MONEY.
Honestly, I could see Murray Hill as Dr. Scott (if they split cast it from Eddie). But between this and CATS, the downtown/underground talent coming to Broadway is absolutely incredible.
I will say that today’s SIX casting announcement has squashed my hope for Dylan Mulvaney

This idea will also go over great with everyone who was complaining that it was too soon for a DEATH OF SALESMAN revival. The last AMS revival was 2019 (with Tracy Letts and Annette Bening)
