They just look so… bad. Pollypocket, preschool style. Not using mini figs. Not detailed or complicated seeming.
I really thought they’d give us something nice for the adult fans who grew up with Wicked.&

Hadestown tour questions. Aug 8

QueenTwinnied said: "The tour already lost some grandiosity (imo) without the elevator. I can’t imagine how mediocre it will look without the turntable.
Given the schedule I doubt they’ll have the moving walls either. Hopefully the swinging lamps will still be part of the show too."
The swinging lights are probably the easiest part of load in, so they’ll definitely cut those just to spite us.

Frozen Tour Jul 13

Saw the tour this week in Vancouver, and wanted to share some thoughts.
Obviously Frozen is not high art, and I understand that… but honestly, this may be one of the best shows to come through town. And I mean that from a wow factor perspective. We get a lot of non-equity or downscaled tours, so to get a show of this scale is actually pretty exciting - especially after the Mean Girls tour we recently had, oof.
Probably one of the most im

Does anyone know if Beetlejuice is continuing post Mexico? Or is the tour being scheduled for this coming season going to be a reopened non-equity? I sincerely hope it’s staying equity.

Aaron Tveit, Sutton Foster will next star in ‘Sweeney Todd’ Feb 11

Robbie2 said: "BrodyFosse123 said: "“Irecall the positive reviews and raves for Gaten but this Joe Locke guy is the talk of the town and alot of buzz surrounding his performance. Have no idea who is? We are looking forward to seeing it w/ Aaron & Sutton in a couple of weeks!"
Joe Locke currently stars in the popular Netflix teen series HEARTSTOPPER, which is why he’s buzzing and why the teens are screaming whenever he walks on stage and exits.
"
I know that now after a google search but still no interest in watching this. Anway, we'll see the show again in a couple of weeks and see him. Kids!"
Heartstopper is one of the most sweet, beautiful little shows. I’m 32 and probably cried for about 1 week after watching the first season.

Are they shortsighted or what? They already had an inferior tour not that long ago. Give us something as good as the original, or don’t bother.

And it turns out he's actually ill. What a rotten ghoul you are"
Certainly not trying to be. I genuinely wish him a speedy recovery. He’s a talented person, and sounds amazing in the role.

According to a Twitter reply to a fan from his Twitter account, Jordan has the flu.
"
certainly unfortunate timing, as of course no one wants to get sick, and add the extra layer of you just started in a show, and are already facing the attendance narrative. I am sure he is stressed.
