For what it’s worth, I’m never looking to “scoop”. I’m currently home on disability from work and so when not at PT, I’m mostly home on my phone. I just happen to be on when stuff pops up. It breaks up my boredom.

According to Broadway Journal, the estimated breakeven is going to be $993,000 per week.

As much as I would hope some of that capitalization money would be seen on stage in the production itself, it sounds a lot more like salaries and royalties.

I concur. The fact that they have the foresight to acknowledge this issue and create compassionate guidance for potential licensees is actually quite refreshing to see. 

Based on Aleshea Harris’ play of the same name.

Coming out May 15th.

The kittens across the street would like a word…

Oh I agree - but it only takes one to whip everyone in a tizzy these days.

I have…concerns. While there are many neurotypical characters in the show, I have a feeling we’re about to see amateur productions where otherwise neurotypical actors are “playing autistic” and I can’t see that ending well…at all. 

For those of you going the next three days, the whole cast is expected to be in for Saturday and Sunday (barring exigent circumstance).

Tomorrow (Friday 2/20), Jak and Zoe are being covered by Sam and Amanda.

Also, Tutty/Pitts for Leading (Musical), which sounds like a given - but they also could’ve tried to bump one of them down to Featured as category fraud (like MHE tried last year)

New Rulings:

https://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Tony-Awards-Committee-Meets-For-Second-Time-To-Determine-Eligibility-For-25-26-Season-20260219

MARJORIE PRIME, OEDIPUS, and BUG are all revivals, with all authors considered eligible for the award.

Everyone in MARJORIE PRIME will be considered Featured (pitting Squibb and Nixon against each other).

CHESS considered for additional categories:

- Danny Strong (New Book) will be considered eligible in the Best Book of a Musical category for their work on Chess.

- David Rockwell (Scenic Designer) and Peter Nigrini(Video Designer) will be considered jointly eligible in the Best Scenic Design of a Musical category for their work on Chess.

- Brian Usifer will be considered eligible in the Best Orchestrations category for their work on Chess

 

Riddle is reprising Cal. (Morrison is actually going to be the interim Bobby Darin after all).

Rose will be a familiar face from the IN THE HEIGHTS movie.

I’m gonna need Alladin and Donica to roll into CHESS when the time comes. I think Donica as Anatoly would be an on-par replacement for Nicholas Christopher

Kad said: "Considering performances don’t start for over a month, could this not just be a placeholder?"

This is what was posted officially on Playbill Vault which, to my understanding, is going to be their design, at least initially until the monthly cycle comes around and it can be changed 

I saw this image floating around online yesterday and was kinda hoping it wasn’t real…and apparently it is. (Confirmed via Playbill Vault) This is probably one the most artistically confusing/baffling Playbills I’ve ever seen. Thoughts?
