We loved this. Andy Karl is just a fantastic performer and he leads this cast like their daddy.

It's awful. I got in line almost immediately at the start of the intermission; it crawled downstairs and the "return to your seat" warning chimes started just as I reached the actual rest

itsahopi said: "they aged Norma down an entire decade because it’s not about her “being too old.” It’s about how the business pushes out women perceived as “difficult” or “crazy.” Traditionally I see Norma as driven mad by aging out. The revival featured a Norma whose mental health issues push her out and metastasize in isolation."

I saw the show three times last week and I didn't get that notion at all.

The production photos of Mandy have her natural curly hair and it seems an adjustment would need to be made on Mandy performances for continuity with young Norma."

It's been noted somewhere on BWW that young Norma does not wear a wig or change her hair for the nights Mandy is on.

It looks like BroadwayDirect.com detected the error and has now corrected it.

As I noted in my original post, you have to apply the BroadwayBox discount.

Dunno where on Earth you're looking but BroadwayDirect (the official ticket seller for the show) lists all those for under $200 each in the sections you mentioned.
"

As noted in my original post, if you actually apply the BroadwayBox discount on BroadwayDirect.com and look at the performances on 11/23 and 11/24, you'll see that far side orchestra and rear orchestra tickets are listed for $1,024.50 apiece. Here's a link to the 11/23 matinee:

Indeed, see my longstanding signature below.

Could you please clarify whether "with additional performances" includes the Saturday (11/23/24) 8pm show, or will we get David Thaxton?

I liked Bad Cinderella, so maybe you "should never have come in". Who are you to make such pronouncements?

 


Broadway’s Sexiest Man Alive
 Nov 14 2024, 10:05:42 AM

Steven9 said: "A common theme I’m noticing in this thread is the lack of body diversity…"

I think what you're noticing is the body type that a very large slice of the population finds attractive. Attraction is attraction, and it can't be reasoned away. The OP asked who the board members find sexy, and they responded accordingly. It is not my intent to be unkind, but were you expecting people to lie about this?

Phantom of the Opera Returns!

Phantom4ever said: "I can't wait to see what the chandelier looks like."

The Scorpion said: "I don't think the intention is to have the chandelier rise from the stage any more in the touring versions."

The BroadwayWorld version of this article quotes Mackintosh as saying:

"in just a year’s time, when we raise our even more sensational chandelier, you can once again thrill to Andrew’s soaring music of the night and be swept away by a revitalized PHANTOM in all its glory!” 

Use of the word "raise" suggests to me that the chandelier will rise and fall, and I expect it will be a replica of the round one in the current London production so that he doesn't have to pay Maria's estate.

<sigh> At least it won't be Mackintosh's "reimagined" touring production from several years ago.

Andrew Lloyd Webber announces his next musical The Illusionist
 Oct 28 2024, 04:02:11 PM
This news both concerns and delights me.

I'm concerned (if not exactly surprised) that ALW has chosen Jamie Lloyd to direct this. It's one thing to have Lloyd "reimagine" an existing (and, IMHO, classic) property as a revival for the kids, but it's entirely another for Lloyd to give that sort of treatment to an all-new period piece as described in the article (of course, we don't know that Lloyd is going to do it this way, but does anyone think he won't?). I'm excited to see his Sunset

I could find no mention of The Illusionist in that article.
