Wicked Lotto/Already Have Tickets!? May 27
2012, 08:58:31 PM
Same thing happened to me in September. I was going to surprise my little sister with Wicked tickets, and we ended up winning. I gave my purchased tickets back to the box office to sell to the cancellation line, and ended up getting my money back. Legal and easy!

When did they change the ending to I'm Not That Girl? Nov 2
2011, 01:15:28 PM
She's not the first one to end on a higher note. It's usually at the discretion of the music director. Few women can make the E3 sound pretty.

glad to see sister act is creeping back up. According to the Playbill Club emails, it looks like they're trying to fill the rear mezz up again. Good news?

Looks like they're shooting for it http://www.playbill.com/news/article/154197-Following-Houston-Run-Toxic-Avenger-May-Spread-Its-Goo-On-Broadway- Think they'll bring back Diana D and hope the masses follow?

Hurricane Irene and Broadway Aug 25
2011, 05:08:56 PM
It's still too soon to tell how bad we'll be getting hit. The last chatter I heard from NBC at the top of the hour said we'll be getting a category 1 in time for the Sunday matinee curtain. We'll probably have a much better idea tomorrow. Regardless, I don't see Broadway going dark for this storm. Wouldn't have too much trouble with the BOM SRO line though, eh?

Pull a Bette Midler/Priscilla and stick Whoopi's name over the title. Maybe it'll connect the dots.

Moments You Love in Cast Recordings Aug 16
2011, 10:22:09 AM
Urinetown - Follow Your Heart: "...just laughter and gladness" Beautiful notes, straight up song sex. I've also been rather partial to the strings section in The Wizard and I starting after "Held in such high esteem..."

Couple of Wicked questions from a 'brand new' Broadway fan. Aug 5
2011, 10:17:08 AM
Well then, welcome to the club! I hope there will be many more shows in your future! 1. Like FingerLakesSinger said, the leads usually do both shows. After all, it is their job to perform! 2. Behind the Emerald curtain is a nice treat. You'll see some really neat costumes and props up close. The guys that lead the presentation are members of the Wicked ensemble. They'll talk about their experience with the show and answer any and all Wicked/Broadway questions. S

New WICKED Cast Replacements this month and next? Jul 28
2011, 08:06:43 PM
Katie and Teal have been with Wicked for quite awhile. It'll be nice to see where they take their talents next. As for the replacements...Definitely not Ricci: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002232589510 Shindle would be an interesting choice. She's already survived a role that required singing her tonsils out. Texanaddams: the new cast usually starts the next performance, so it would be Sept 27 for the new leads.

Sister Act Broadway Recording Jul 23
2011, 02:42:43 PM
It would be nice if they did (I love how they changed the end of The Life I Never Led). But it costs a lot of money. I think they have to pay the actors something like a week's salary per recording session.

Unpopular opinions you hold Jul 23
2011, 02:34:39 PM
I thought Wonderland was a cute little show. I hate the way Chris Colfer sings (and I wish Glee would pick a new Broadway show to crush on). I think Patina Miller should have won over Sutton Foster.
