He had a small role with lines in DIE HARD and I actually saw the check he received for that. It was less than two dollars but he still is getting money from that film."

No need to name drop. Looks ugly. I’ve ref

I think the real test will be their casting for Legally Blonde, which in the TikTok era has gained a lot of recent momentum, and the incredible casting of the Regent Park production in London I would the think the Muny would want to l

I thought the other video of the curtain speech was nice. He seems like a really generous person for someone who is the star of a show. That made me more willing to get a ticket...though I might watch for a discount code."

Half rhymes always really baffle me. I just can't see how any lyricist gets any joy from their work of it's so sloppy. I would

CarlosAlberto said: "Are people on this board forgetting that Beanie is playing "Fanny Brice" and not Barbra Streisand? She's not supposed to sound like Barbra Streisand.

I haven't listened to any of the leaked and (illegally) recorded audio from the show or even the sitzprobe footage becauseI want to go into this without any notion of what this sounds like until I get to see it for myself live and make up my own mind about it.

BrodyFosse123 said: "Is it really the original orchestrations? Chris Walker is credited on IBDB.

He may be credited and those are his transitions and bits here and there but I’m very familiar with the original 1964 Broadway score to know the Overture they did last night is the original 1964 Broadway Overture with zero alterations. Even the trumpet riff at the end is identical. "

That doesn’t necessarily mean it’s not been re-orch

Bettyboy72 said: "Many of the names listed here would not be considered "big." They would considered "semi-celebrity." These are typically people who can be gotten on the cheaper and side and many of the audience won't know who they are.

Back in the day people became "stars" from the vaudeville houses. Broadway stage and television appearances. They were household names with the talent and chops to back it up. Hit songs came from Broadway

Yes to the drag queen points. The writing is so bad. You just sitting waiting and waiting for a gag, witty word play, a bitchy zinger and they never come. What it takes is camp and as rightly mentioned in the previous posts, actors who understand how to do camp. It takes someone to pull the words around and simply make them funny because of their tone, or the way they stretch out a vowel, a throw of the head or an audaciously long head pan. Basically, none of what is on the page is good excep

TheGingerBreadMan said: "The nanny goat thing in WICKED. She has one line in the opening number and then she's done. I understand that it is an ensemble track played by someone who does multiple other roles, but honestly, those masks are expensive and it's just a waste. Having the Witch's father as the only one there during the birth would be just fine."

The goat midwife is necessary.

She’s important for the world building. It sets up, in the

Call_me_jorge said: "Cinderella is public domain. This is not Disneys Cinderella this is ALWs Cinderella. It’s like how Rodgers and Hammerstein have their own Cinderella. Had ALW directly ripped off Disney’s Cinderella I’m sure there would be issues, but he doesn’t. As long as it’s inspired from Grimm Brothers Cinderella, there isn’t really an issue."

To be totally pedantic, it’s actually the Charles Perrault version of Cinde

And that artwork is quite beautiful.

If there's a really good story here, itcouldtranscend the jukebox genre. Or it could be absolute crap put up by overqualified artists a

This. The ensemble may be talented, but it is not a group of stars that will sell large volumes of full-priced tickets.

Separate from the above comment — who replaced Lucy Liu?

pmensky said: "I once heard that an audience will become comfortable with laughing out loud during a comedy only after a few people start the trend, then the audience becomes comfortable because they feel they have permission to laugh. I wonder if this kind of bad behavior spreads for the same reason."

That’s a really interesting question. 
 

Certainly ‘permission to laugh’ is a thing. Comedy already works so much better when y

These people have a lack of experience being in a public space and having to share with other people? They’ve never left that house?

Your response is utter nonsense. Basic manners and human decency in any person, would mak
