Seeing Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster together made me a vomit a bit in my mouth

Beaches and Wicked are not the same in terms of reviews lol

A Tuna Christmas

Winnie Holzman’s awful second act strikes again.

Realistically, what are the chances this transfers to New York?

Overall, I thought the production was well executed. The set and costumes were gorgeous. However, the sound mixing was uneven at times, and the use of handheld microphones felt awkward.

In what seems to be a the beginning of an era where producers serve up regurgitated touring productions disguised as “revivals,” it’s a joy to see a truly fresh take on a classic musical return to Broadway.

 

This was going to bomb with or without Chenoweth’s ignorant Kirk remarks.

My two cents:

1. From what I’ve seen and heard (though I haven’t seen him live in the role), Billy doesn’t seem like the right fit for the Emcee and may be the weakest casting in the revival.
2. Sepsis is extremely serious especially for someone who is immunocompromised. I wish Billy a full and speedy recovery. I also don’t think the production or Billy owed us an explanation for his absence, particularly given the severity of this illness.

Nicole did just beat Audra out of a Tony this past season…

I’ll be interested to see who reviews the Nashville run.  There aren’t any actual theater critics in the city.

There is no Dorothy doll for Wicked: For Good. that image says 'as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz'

She is a non speaking part in the film."

Zegler’s “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina” is available on lol streaming platforms (both the studio and live versions).

IMO - it’s the definitive recording of the song.

For obvious reasons, I understand why this is premiering in Nashville. However, I lived there for a decade, and it’s not exactly a theatre town. Even the few professional theatres struggle to fill seats — even for typically popular shows like Joseph, Mamma Mia, or Beauty and the Beast. That said, with Dolly’s star power and deep roots in the area, maybe this one will break through. Excited to see it come to NYC!

I saw both Audra and Nicole.  Both are fabulous performers, but felt that Nicole deserved the Tony.

Just from perusing a variety of social media discussions around this topic, I do have to say that many of the “AUDRA SHOULD HAVE WON” folks are… intense.

I wouldn't mind if Levy got replaced."

Agree 100% - she is totally wrong for the role.
