Came here to say exactly this.

Jon Chu confirmed the wedding is between Fiyero and Glinda but from what he said it sounded like Fiyero might jilt her.

Three separate Broadway runs but we’re no closer to the UK production? Jesus.

It is worth noting that two of the finalists in the open search have been cast in the show, but we don’t know in what capacity.

Another reading Kerry Butler took part but didn’t get to play the role on stage. 
 

Interestingly, two performers from the open call have been invited to join the cast.

While not quite the same thing, the illegal sound and video recordings of Carrie ensured it had a life outside the original production.

OTHELLO Reviews

A Journalist Criticized The Super Expensive Ticket Prices For Denzel Washington's $900 Broadway Show, And What Happened Next Is As Dramatic As The Play

https://www.buzzfeed.com/emilykling1/a-journalist-was-uninvited-from-othello
"

A "journalist" who hasn't seen the play herself and wrote an article about the NY Post review. It's buzzfeed after all, calling them "journalists" is a choice and a stretch
"

The journalist the article is written about also, by their own admission, took eight days to respond to the offer of free tickets and was then shocked to find that none were left. I think taking that long to respond is ridiculous and have no sympathy. 


BURLESQUE MUSICAL in development
 Mar 25 2025, 10:09:31 AM

Someone on TheatreBoard has suggested the show is going through substantial changes such as new director, a lot of new creatives behind the scenes, and almost new cast. They said Todrick has commandeered the show. 
 

 


Best Understudies
 Mar 21 2025, 12:00:50 PM

While she wasn’t an understudy I saw Casey Al-Shaqsy as standby Elphaba in the most recent UK tour and I was blown away by her interpretation. I’m not sure if it was a combination of her acting and her being so new to the role, instead of the recycled Elphabas we always seem to get, but it felt like I was watching the show for the first time with her. 
 

Her acting choices were unique, her voice was in incredible shape, and, most importantly to me, the d


Toni Collette's CHICAGO Screen Test

BrodyFosse123 said: "Though her “performing” Roxie is well executed it’s quite clear why they passed on her - too strong and commanding for Roxie. She’s more suited for Velma, if anything. And yes, Toni would be a revelation as Rose in GYPSY - both on stage and on film."

This. Toni as Velma I’d believe, Toni as Roxie is a harder sell. 


Future Mama Rose Possibilities?

Not in this production but Michael Diamond will make an incredible Rose one day.

How do you know this? Aren't there measures in place that prevent people from telling that they're going into a show beforehand? Is this a violation of some sort of NDA? Or doe

Liz has some good recognition from TV but she is largely famous for being Ariana Grande's best friend, imo. She's very talented in her own right, but the friendship has not hurt.
"

Absolutely. Ariana was recently asked about possibly playing Meg in the live action remake of Hercules and she replied “it should be Liz Gillies”. 


When understudies SHOULD have gone on
 Jan 15 2025, 12:46:17 PM

I saw the amateur premiere of Wicked in Melbourne. It was a two week run and there was no Glinda or Elphaba alternate. The actors were expected to perform every single show plus hold down a full time jobs. 
 

I saw the show on its third or fourth performance and Glinda’s voice was gone. It sounded like gravel and it must have been painful to speak. I was absolutely bewildered that they didn’t at least have a matinee Elphaba and Glin

Ohhhh, lovely! This will be a great addition to my DVD collection alongside Amy Sherman-Pallidino’s Gypsy, Ryan Murphy’s A Chorus Line, Glenn’s Sunset Boulevard, Josh Gad’s Hunchbak of Notre Dame. Thomas Kali’s Fiddler on the Roof, Nick Jonas’ Jersey Boys, Disney’s Once On This Island, the Guys and Dolls remake, and the Beautiful film adaption,
