Just incredibly, incredibly sad such a wonderful and inventive production couldn't take off the way it needed to. Will definitely be making a return visit or 2 before closing.

Apparently Aisha, Tiffany, and Joshua were all being replaced for the next workshop.

A while ago, yes.

I saw the show over the weekend and found it to be a mixed bag with a lot of promise.The book -- as has become the case with most new musicals -- is the biggest issue. No character is really fleshed out all that well so motivations don't make a lot of sense. I think changing the choreographer from a man to a woman is fine, but then suddenly LeRoy doesn't have much of a personality. I think she needed to be rougher and meaner, Amber Iman exudes a warmth that is at odds with what the character ...

Oh Sherie is going to be BEYOND excellent.

I found the performance completely soulless and devoid of any actual connection to A Chorus Line. Introducing her by saying she was going to "honor the original cast of A Chorus Line" and then just have her sand center stage while over-singing "What I Did for Love" in front of the words A CHORUS LINE was a bizarre choice.It was an Evita commercial plain and simple. And I get that. But they couldn't even pretend it was actually about A Chorus Line by having a slideshow of pictures from the ori...

The opening was excellent, I thought Cats came off very well, Ragtime as well. Chicago and BOM were fun. Schmigadoon wasn't the most interesting or exciting number but was probably the right choice of song. Rocky Horror was Rocky Horror, it didn't impress but it didn't deter. Lost Boys I thought felt incredibly messy and wasn't helped by poor camera work and some iffy vocals (I know Shoshana has been sick and I felt bad for her, Pajak is clearly on the cusp of puberty). A Chorus Line was a wa...

Odd that Matteo Lane is the line that's going too far with casting when there have been multiple Housewives, Mormon Wives, and various other unproven actors/dancers/singers plugged into virtually every role in the show.

I'm generally not a Shoshana fan, but I found her performance in Lost Boys elevated the material. She was able to imbue the show with heart and humanity the rest of the show is sorely lacking. I'd be thrilled if she were to win. I've never understood the praise for Nichelle's performance and a win for her would be wholly unearned IMO.

Ragtime will not be extending to November.

I'm in my early 30s and have been lucky enough to see Joy in each of her NY theatre credits. While I agree that early in Gypsy's run I was left wanting by her Louise, by the end I thought she was damn near perfect and the way she, Audra, and Danny played off one another was magic to watch. Her Audrey in Little Shop was also heartbreaking. Wish I could see her as Sally and can't wait to see what else she does.I also mourn the loss of her Sarah in Ragtime. What's happening on the Vivian Beaumon...

David Corenswet is co-starring with Arnaud. The Julia Roberts role was originally Britt Lower, she has dropped out.

Jordan Catalano said: "Playing drunk is HARD but playing a believable (albeit comically) drunk for 30+ nonstop minutes is even harder and these ladies knock it out of the park."This was a HUGE takeaway for me. They both managed to do that thing drunk people do where they try to stand still but are always swaying slightly or moving a bit. It was brilliant.

Kayla Davion would be phenomenal!

Those are almost certainly Ken's own costumes as he is quite a bit taller than Andre.I echo what quizking said. Ard is a really phenomenal Old Deuteronomy, had the audience in the palm of his hand from his first entrance and an incredibly powerful voice.Will never understand how Tempress wasn't nominated, but such is life.

Yes, Isa always had a short contract as she has to return to LA in June and film THE PITT Season 3.

Nichelle didn't really register for me at all, and Hannah was lovely singing but maybe it was the role itself, but it didn't do much for me.Otherwise, all the other nominees were pretty spot on."I continue to be baffled by the praise given to Nichelle's performance. I found her easy to ignore at City Center, and actively bad on Broadway. Her nomination along with Drat...

Ariana Debose was Aurora in Blankenbuehler's workshops previously and was meant to do it at the Kennedy Center. I assume it will be here at Encores. And if not her, Nicole Scherzinger seems a clear choice.
