ON THE TOWN Box Office Yikes!  Nov 9 2014, 01:51:23 AM
My playbill was in color on Tuesday. Someone who went tonight posted a picture and it was B&W. I guess they've made the switch.

Does anyone think the Bridges of Madison County tour will happen?  Jul 12 2014, 08:08:21 PM
Networks isn't strictly Non-Eq. They currently present Flashdance, Phantom, and We Will Rock You. Those are all Equity. The other four (Anything Goes, Elf, War Horse, and Beauty and the Beast) are Non-Eq.

WEST SIDE STORY Tour  Apr 27 2014, 12:42:18 AM
Saw this a couple years back---the non-eq. I absolutely hated it. The Tony was singing wrong intervals in "Maria". The orchestra was 9 members. For West Side Story? That's not acceptable to me. It sounded SO empty. I was disappointed.
