Spring Trip Suggestions May 5

12 of us went to see 7 shows in spring and all of us but one thought that The Outsiders was the best show that we saw. The rumble is worth the price of admission.

(Insert Name or Show) Was Robbed! May 2

I agree totally with the above and will add that when there is a movie adaptation that works, the stage actors are not imitating the movie actors and giving exact line readings of the film. Casey Likes is not playing Marty McFly. Casey Likes is playing Michael J Fox playing Marty McFly. Additionally, there was not one song that I remembered 24 hours after seeing BTTF. It just feels like a total money grab much like revival of The Wiz does (but that is another

Your Single Favorite 2024 Tony Nomination Apr 30

LuckyDipster said: "I was at work and I actually jumped for joy when Roger got his nomination because I adore that man so much. I guess you all think I'm nuts. Whatever. That man's work makes me very happy and it makes a lot of BTTF fans very happy. At the end of the day, Radcliffe is going to win and I won't be mad about it because I thought he was fantastic in Merrily."

Almost totally ignored.
i hope the album is still happening at least?"
I think it got one more nomination than it truly deserved. I hated this production from beginning to end and thought hard about leaving at intermission. It had nothing new to say and looked like a cheap roadshow or college production.

Broadway Flash said: "Happy for Roger Bart, also wanted to see Hugh Coles. Complete shutout for heart of rock and roll?"
Hey, should I have that medical team I have on call for that “Heart attack” stand down? I still don’t see the promised nominations for Casey Likes and Jeremy Jordan. Hahahahaha.

Broadway Flash said: "Somehow I don’t agree with that. I don’t believe they are as democratic as they claim."
Then why do you care or bother commenting on these threads? You whine about the Tonys but really want your boy Casey Likes to be nominated, which is hilarious.

kelli ohara, Gayle rankin, Shaina Taub, Maleah Moon, Eva Noblezada. I took out Eden for Hell’s Kitchen. I think Notebook will get shut out except maybe score.

Jonathan groff, Eddie redmayne, Bryan Darcy James, Jeremy Jordan, Casey Likes. They might throw in more like Brody Grant. Didn’t they nominate 7 last year?"
My eyes just sprained roll

It's much more fun to watch my thoughts about Broadway now in case anyone feels lonely and wants some online company or if you want to have fun:

NOTES:
1. Get rid of the headphones. Makes you look like a tool. If you want to add a technical prop, have a microphone on a stand - those headphones make zero sense.
2. MIRROR YOUR PHONE CAMERA - so whatever you’re showing to your audience isn’t backwards.

RE: Notes: Are you sure it’s just the headphones?

How pathetic can you be when you completely erase a person because their opiniondiffers fromyours.

If that is pathetic, call me that. I refuse to allow someone filled with hate of others to have one cent of my money or time. I have never been a HP fan, but I have seen the Cursed Chi

Broadway Flash said: "Idk, I was watching this last revival with the new cast thinking, I can see how this worked well off broadway. Theres nothing in there that screams it needs to be big. Theres no big choreographed numbers, no special effects, doesn’t need a huge cast."
I beg of you quit making comments like this. Please educate yourself about this show and many others that you make ridiculous comments about.

I think it will have positive reviews. We saw it the night it began previews and have not seen it since. I felt it was incredibly strong for a first preview and hope it has only grown stronger. Looking forward to seeing it again in June.

Yes the quality of her work and productions can’t hold a candle to Back to The Future and The Great Gatsby. I read these posts just to laugh at the nonsense this person brings every day. It’s hilarious.

I also think that the two guys from back to the future both get in Roger Bart, Huge Coles."
Casey Likes???? Will it be for Best Actor in a Musical imitating Michael J. Fox? Does BTTF pay you in t-shirts?
