With theatres reopening, am curious to know what, if any, actions will be taken by AEA, if an AEA theatre reopens using non-union talent.

There were photos on Instagram. Each show looked pretty legit. Script in 3-ring binder, photo taken in rehearsal halls.
They do sound bogus but they seem to be real.

In lieu of doing laundry, I started looking around social media and noticed a few current/recent workshops/labs taking place as of late.
Any one know anything about these three or any others that are currently in development?

Wondering if anyone knows where the additional songs came from? Recognize a few, but am curious as to their origins. Trunk songs? Cut songs? Much appreciated

Just purchased iPad 3 - wondering if anyone can recommend any apps. Looking for a good recording app (for recording music during voice coaching, rehearsals, etc.), vocal warm-up app and/or voice lesson, and then any guilty pleasure apps you may enjoy. Much thanks.

From what I can gather after only 1 cup of coffee is that there are two versions floating around out there and if you have the knowledge you also have a choice. Version one is the original version as seen on broadway, version two is a major rewrite produced by the Goodspeed Opera House (opening number cut, ballets cut, a few numbers cut and show reset to year of film). When I get a copy of the revised version I will send on info.

The Tommy Tune BYE BYE BIRDIE tour in the early 90's: Rosie (Leonora Nemetz at that time - Reinking had left the tour by that time - hurt her ankle during the Shriner's Ballet and then finished the book scene being carried off by a chorus guy. She did not finish the show, her understudy was the actor playing Mrs. MacAfee then went on for rest of show.

Oddly it is one of the most rewritten shows out there. And I have to agree that no one seems to trust the original libretto and the key is in the casting.
I did a production of it once where the director (SIGH) reset the show in the 1920's, used huge chunks of the screenplay, reassigned songs and generally made a huge mess of the entire thing - complete with the miscasting of Joey and Vera.

ROMAN HOLIDAY on Broadway?

This is from the Minneapolis newspaper today:
...Blake always has hoped to get "Roman Holiday" into New York. He feels the work he and Miller-Stephany have done gets him much closer to that goal. He said there is interest and financing, but he wants to find the right medium-sized Broadway house.
"We have every intention of moving into New York," Blake said. "I've talked to [Broadway powers] the Nederlanders; they're interested in it. I think Jimmy [Nederlander] Junior is co
