Jeremy Irons hit with frame in final second of IMPRESSIONISM

SPOILER ALERT (Though not that it matters because don't go see this show!) Anyone else see the matinee of IMPRESSIONISM yesterday? In the final moment, just as Jeremy Irons turns in to Joan Allen for a kiss, one of those damn frames flies in and whacks Jeremy Irons right in the head. There was an audible "thunk" when it hit his head and a gasp in the theatre. Both he and Joan Allen just sort of stood there until the lights went down. When they came out a second later for curtain call, they awkwa

Pasek & Paul's EDGES - Equity production in CT
Jan 28
2008, 01:11:55 PM
In case there are any fans of Benj Pasek and Justin Paul's song cycle, EDGES - just wanted to alert people that there is a new production of it going up in Westport, CT at Music Theatre of Connecticut. It's an Equity production starring Michael Kadin Craig, Monique French, Kevin Reed and Alex Ellis.
Westport is less than an hour outside of the city, so this is a great opportunity to catch this fantastic new show. A lot of changes have been made since the demo CD - so many wonderful improvements on already great material!
The theatre's website is:

Anyone seen understudies for AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY?
Jan 4
2008, 02:38:58 PM
Just wondering if anyone had seen any understudies go on in AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY. I saw this past Wednesday's matinee and Deanna Dunagan (Violet Weston - the mother) was out. Her understudy did a fine job (can't imagine taking over that role) but I just wondered how the show would be different if Dunagan was there. Such a huge and commanding role - had to give her understudy credit for doing a nice job, but somehow I got the feeling that the show had a different feeling when Dunagan is there. St

Just wanted to throw my hat into the ring of CORAM BOY lovers - saw this on Wednesday evening and was blown away. I encourage everyone to spread the word on this great show, so that we can keep getting National Theatre productions transferred to NY. The National Theatre's work is always nothing short of remarkable - even if the show itself is not great, there is always something fabulous about the production.
I agree that the "water" scene at the end of the second act is probably one of

re: Hilarious Comments Overheard By Tourists and Audience Members

During "The Goat or Who is Sylvia", right after the character confesses something to the effect of having had sex with a goat (in not quite such civil language), the somewhat elderly woman next to me turns to her husband and says, in full voice, "I think we picked the wrong play."
Sally Field was in it at the time and I think they were tourists who thought they were going to see a nice play featuring the Flying Nun.

OPPOSITE OF SEX @ Williamstown - Kerry Butler OUT!

Sorry just posted the title so that you would read this, but I had an interesting afternoon of theatre...
At the beginning of the show, Artistic Dirctor Roger Rees got on stage, along with the director of the show, Rob Roth got on stage and introduced kerry Butler and show writer Douglas Cohen. They announced, in a very nice way, that Ms. Butler was without a voice and that Mr. Cohen would be singing Ms. Butler's part, as well as speaking her lines, while she went through the staging an

Just thought someone should start the buzz about this great new show - just saw the reading at New york Stage & Film at Vassar College last night - starring Douglas Sills, Lee Wilkof, Christopher Fitzgerald, etc. Great, hysterical, creative new original musical - watch out for this one in New York folks - I can't imagine why it wouldn't be coming our way soon! And.... I wish Douglas Sills would work more - he's fabulous!
