I would have sworn this is hilariously bad Photoshop (and I guess it still could be...) but based on Instagram photos they really were photographed in the theater.

2pm tomorrow (7/21) officially cancelled.

The understudies can be found here: https://pacnyc.org/whats-on/cats-the-jellicle-ball/ (under Production Credits)

and here: https://understudies.org/show/cats-the-jellicle-ball

I believe each role only has one understudy, and the understudies cover multiple roles, so it wouldn't take too many people being ill to make it impossible to perform the show.

Aren't the Ensemble(string of numbers) posters usually just bots pulling up old threads and posting nonsense? 

Sara Holdren on Oh, Mary!

The most controversial cabaret in town might be happening at the August Wilson Theatre, but the best one is at the Lyceum. There, Cole Escola’s riotous, extremely faux-historical farce, Oh, Mary!, has begun its Broadway run, and long may it reign.

...

...if you’re wondering whether Oh, Mary! takes us all the way up to the big bang at Ford’s Theatre, I’ll simply say you should visit the Lyceum to find out. After all, what good is sitting alone in your room?

Caption game on point

Antwayn Hopper has video in his Instagram Stories of Webber meeting with the cast after the show and telling them it was great.

It's not that egregious a question considering it's been asked here before:

https://forum.broadwayworld.com/readmessage.php?thread=1119023

Should they really be billing it "A New Musical" when it debuted 10 years ago? The article wasn't clear on if they're making changes. 

Thread from the Atlanta production: https://forum.broadwayworld.com/readmessage.php?thread=1076272

Here's ALW with the cast last night:

Broadway Flash said: "Excuse me sir, you don’t got the goods, I do. You’ll see very soon. And why doesn’t millennium just sell the theatre? I’m sure somebody would buy it for a good chunk of change"

Because the theatre is part of the hotel, which was built around it. Why would they sell part of the building?

Maya Boyd (now in & Juliet), Brian Sears, and Evan Alexander Smith (now George McFly in BTTF) left during the Broadway run.

The only replacements from off-Broadway to on were the Frank, Jrs.

 

No, Renee Elise Goldsberry and Ariana DeBose were the guest judges last night. Cynthia Erivo was the guest judge on June 26.



 

One of the women involved in the "protest" commented on the Reddit thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Broadway/comments/1du12nw/comment/lbgrurd/

This is the best part:

"It's all so patronizing to the causes and lives of these Black women, and it's tbh, it's heartbreaking to see (some) Black women defend the show because there are so few roles and opportunities and so little representation for Black women on Broadway."

So...white woman criticizes the Black women who say they've enjoyed the show and purports to know the real reason they did so...but it's the show that's patronizing? Okay, white lady. How "heartbreaking" that some Black women have opinions different from yours and like something you don't think they should.

Hmmm...
