How can Trump hate Hamilton?!

The show features adultery, a crush on a relative, back room deals and it ends with an immigrant being shot. 

What’s not for him to love??

I am a member of IATSE in California and while we have our share of MAGAts, our particular union would definitely be more left. The communication from IATSE is also very left during election season.
 

I’m saying you’re wrong, but it’s a bummer that people who can use the security that their union provides to make a very well paid living also back a party movement that is anti-union. 

That being said, the Dolby undeniably has the best location for the Act II opener walk. At the Ahmanson Joe would just be wandering around a concrete terrace with no people, and at the Pantages he would be by parking lots and a Dunkin…

I’d love to see him try to bob and weave around Iron Man, Mickey Mouse and aspiring musicians instead!

My only guess with all of the shows at the Pantages is *maybe* Sunset Blvd will have an extended run at the Ahmanson?

Is it completely bonkers to dream of Sherie Rene Scott playing Donna?

Mamma Mia! is my all time favorite show, and I’m so happy I had second thoughts about a trip in April, so now we can do a trip in August!

All my love to Gene Hackman; but James Earl Jones is the VOICE of motion pictures, and absolutely deserved to be featured far more than he was. 

What does her apology and tickets for this show have in common?

 

I’m just not buying it.  

I have to agree.  I’d love to “rise above” and separate the art from the artist, but that red hat absolutely killed the HUGE ANTICIPATION I had to see this show. I had it on repeat on Spotify and had a trip to NYC planned with Sunset as the main attraction; and all of that went away. 
 

Luckily I live in LA, so hopefully the show comes here next with a different star…

Broadway in Hollywood announces on March 7th but today they announced Phantom will be an add-on production and will play the Pantages on June 24th - August 9th, 2026.

I am curious too! We’re seeing the show on Friday night and I was looking forward to seeing my favorite Zaddy!

Not crazy about the maroon and gold with the cream and blue…

 

((I realize it’s the house curtain that won’t be viewed with most of the productions that come to play the Majestic; but the differences in the contrasts that throw me off.))

I rarely post on here, but did Mr. Roxy pass?? 
 

Second to that; I think the Palace looks amazing, minus the carpet. I love the blue, and the chandelier. 

I’ve seen the show almost 150 times, and I agree with the poster above that this cast is fantastic! (And a second agreement with Tanya singing amazing; right up there with Karen Mason!)

 

Let’s hope they spend some money on some set upgrades, as the soft side legs and light-less floor shouldn’t come to Broadway. 

I was just trying to make a post about this, but I kept misspelling things because I am so excited! Everything about this announcement seems so exciting with Sarah being the unlikely, yet perfect choice for this role. And the part about the stunning sets is very intriguing as well!

I've been looking over some photos from when Mamma Mia! played at the Winter Garden.

Other than removing 1 or 2 rows of seats from the front orchestra, it also appears that the boxes closest to the stage were also covered. Where I'm confused is I would think they would have extended out where the black sides of the proscenium appear flat.

Does anyone have any information about technical specs or set installation from when Mamma Mia! played there?

Thanks!
