Sheer Madness has been cancelled for “low ticket sales.”  Riiiiigggght. 

JD Vance just entered the Kennedy Center for a concert.  Thunderous booing ensued.

Jordan, do you think he doesn’t like the musical?   I am not really sure.  I get the feeling he is on the line with his overall review. (I blocked him a long time ago.)

This new video is EVERYTHING I was hoping the show would be! Just bought a second pair of tickets with the discount code!

We see most productions in NY so it is rare we go to see something that is on tour.  I just looked at the Nashville schedule and tickets and was shocked that to get the best seat tickets you have to make a 2000.00 to 5000.00 donation, in addition to the cost of the tickets.  Is this standard?  It’s like extortion.  For 2000.00 to 5000.00 and the price of the ticket, I can fly to NY see the shows and stay at a pretty decent hotel.  

We first saw the show the first day of previews.  Last week we saw it a second time and Brody Grant was not in it.  Frankly we liked the show even more with his understudy, Strobl.  I don’t think the show is dependent on a particular person.  I can’t however see Casey Likes in that role in any way. 

We saw seven shows last week and this was one I was really looking forward to.  I found it so mediocre after the first two numbers.  It seemed by the second act that it had lost its way and did not know how to end. I would have also cut about most of Michelle Williams’s numbers, truly not an actress at all. 

Thanks to everyone on this board who raved about this show.  It didn’t look like something I would like but we went to the matinee and just fell in love with it.  And was so happy that the theater was packed.  

The second time we saw “Great Comet” Denee Benton was really struggling during act one.  We were seated on stage and she kept drinking from a pitcher of water near the entrance at the top of the stage.  At intermission, her understudy replaced her. 

At the first preview of “The Outsiders” they gave a “Stay Gold” patch.

Wasn’t Bette’s Gypsy sung live in 1993?"

Yes.  It was a big deal that they did that.  There was a clip of them singing “Wherever We Go” several different times live, I think it was an extra on the DVD version I had years ago.

I have a fabulous life, thank you,  and obviously you do give many because you responded.  

I have never been a fan of Erivo and feared from the beginning she would be a distraction for the movie and make me really not like her in it.   She has already started down that yellow brick road for me. 

This Thread * would give it zero if I could.

I saw him so many times on Broadway from Millie on.   I am heartsick and I think for only the second time in my life I am crying that a celebrity that I did not know has passed away.
