Next roles for Connor/Zegler? Jan 17
2025, 11:08:29 PM
I feel that Kit has aged himself out of Season 4 as he has matured years beyond Joe.
Joe can sing so he would be a very interesting[young] visit into the Cabaret world and Kit would drag his fans into How to Succeed because if Daniel could be taught to 'sing and dance' so could Kit. Maybe too soon but there's money to be made here.Maybe in London.
Back to Cabaret. One of the girls in Heartstopper played Sally in London so her and Joe could be great publicity.

WHAT AN ICON HE IS! I’ve heard rumors about this transferring to the West End some time next year, which is NEEDED! The run is completely sold out at the Menier but if you can score a rush ticket, go for it! You won’t be disappointed!"

Universal's WICKED Film - News & Discussion Thread Nov 29

I didn't like the movie, the stage show was OK. The movie wasn't funny, there was no need for tears-sad-where?, the famous last song was ruined, kept looking for the tight white pants, the colouring was not bright enough but somehow I wasn't bored. Maybe waiting for it to improve.
I have heard enough people gushing over everything that I didn't like so obviously Wicked doesn't 'do' it for me.
I've been, I've seen, wasn't conquered. I'l

Listener said: "I'm really, really surprised by all the over-the-top raving now that I've seen the film for myself.
Grande isn't funny, Erivo isn't interesting, and they both look blank 90% of the time.
What are people crying about? How is this movie touching people??
It isn't a trainwreck or anything, but it's hardly Oscar worthy.
And they barely changed anything tosignificantly improve on the source materi

I'm curious about salaries. Do agents negotiate a set fee plus royalties? Naturally this is a confidential amount but just per average.
How would Mr Schwartz negotiate? Is it per performance all around the world? This film? Do singers pay royalties when they sing one of his songs in concert?
I wonder if Judy Garland[Estate] is still getting royalties. I guess not and she was probably only paid a few thousand dollars.
Just curious. These star artists must be being paid

SweettLips - can I ask where you saw the film? Of course, your opinion is your opinion, but some of what you describe sound like sound/picture issues in the theatre you saw the film in. I've seen the film a few times, and honestly wouldn't describe the colors as dull or the dialogue as murky."

Well that's 3 hours I'll never get back. Bored. I can't believe how dull and dark the whole film looked. The poppy field was a little brighter. Emerald City was green but dull. The big dance routines were badly shot, the diction was very bad except for the Wizard-he was excellent. The monkey transformation was one wholly mess, nothing scary about them. Glinda was hard to understand with her squeeky soprano and none of her humour landed. There was emotion when the girls bonded but

ALW has completed his next musical Oct 25

I would love for it to be Sherlock Holmes as from what I recall there is no female front and centre stage. He would be writing mainly for the male voice, each totally different personalities for solos and also harmonious duets. Comedy from the housekeeper then the police and 'customers'. A great cast of characters and maybe a hint to their suggested relationship. My little fantasy.

SARAH BRIGHTMAN - Sunset Blvd in Sydney Aug 29

Have been told that the last 3 mins are the best where she goes bat-s-it crazy.
I think she'll open to be at the Opera House and have then another 'accident' and disappear.
Her brother controls everything.She'll usually come in, do a sound check and say 'not tonight'.
Sylvie could be out the door after a matinee and have to turn around and do the evening..
She is not popular.

My apologies[train wreck] to everyone else in the company as there has been nothing but glowing reports to everything but..... I won't share any more T [and there is lots] as it isn't healthy. I just hope Sunset can keep from setting as long as possible with all the other incredibly talent people involved.

I have a few friends involved in different sections of all things theater and with this train wreck there is no bottle that the lid is not unscrewed without some gossip escaping.

Her brother is the one protecting her, very controlling, and keeping all the press away.

Latest news is that SB won't allow her Understudy to go on so her cover Sylvie Paladeno[might have the spelling wrong]is doing practically all performances--and getting rave responses. SB is supposed to have hurt her hamstrings running up and down those stairs-most convenient.

The back stage gossip from this disaster will almost be as juicy as the previous Sunset at the Regent Theater. Ms Brightman will never set foot on the Opera House stage unless in one of her candy floss away with the faries heavily mimed gloss and smoke fantasies. Everything about her puts my teeth on edge. Yes. I feel better now.
