Chess always felt floppy to me because of their mediocre art/branding.

This. Similar to the fake controversy with...

I understood what the "read the room" comment meant. This wasn't a "typical murder." It was a viral event that could be viewed from multiple angles. I can understand someone commenting on that and not other deaths. But I don't pay much attention to her socials so I don't know how often KC comments on such things. But after a year I don't think Rosie is doing anything wrong and I highly doubt she would be fond of a homophobe.

Or is it just 1986 again??"Does the title of the thread suggest that Rosie might be in a show with Kristin Chenoweth? If so, I understand the comment about reading the room: lots of us are still ambivalent at best about our feelings towards Chenoweth. Rosie should find a less divisive show partner for her long-awaited return. Rosie is not doing anything wrong by collaborati...

I just listened to a wonderful "radio play" version done via zoom in 2020. It's on YouTube and worth checking out. I had no prior knowledge of the play, and I was afraid of the ending getting spoiled before I got to the Hudson. I think it's a beautiful play with some of the most elegantly crafted exposition. The circa 2004 references were coming hot and heavy in the beginning, but they peter out as the play goes on, and it deals with timelines themes like mental health, addiction, and learnin...

He's not Joshua Henry but I was surprised at how good he sounds after reading such negativity here. It is clear that the cast is not being directed the same way the would be in a full production; this is just an attempt to create buzz and in that context the performances are fine.

CoffeeBreak said: "The direction is almost non existent. It leaves the actors on their own making for a very uneven night of varying styles and energy. They should bring in a director NOW to help this cast find its play - even ifmiscast. Right now they are left out to dry. And the poorstaging is hurting the scenes and play itself. This needs help. now. Producers, get on it while you can."I was surprised they assembled this cast and didn't hire an equally A list director. I understand Hickey h...

Janneyis a creature of the theatre and would’ve known how to land that snobby, contemptuous affluence, while JLD could’ve played into the comedy she knows best."I saw a b-roll compilation of the original cast on YouTube. I immediately thought Janney should play the Stockard Channing part and JLD should play Silda.

Zeppie2022 said: A Russian chess player is not the same as a famous white musical star whose life story is being told. Would you cast somebody white to play Michael Jackson in MJ? Color blind casting works in many roles but playing somebody famous in their life story may not be the best idea. no matter how talented they are. I agree with other posters, this show will close by January."If it closes it won't be because he's black it will be because he's not famous enough (which isn't a reflecti...

Yeah, I'm not sure the producers of this show are attempting to uphold white supremacy. The more likely explanation is they can't get anyone with a name (be they Asian, black, white etc) to star in this thing and boost the box office. So they just promoted the understudy because that's the easiest thing to do.

CoffeeBreak said: "Is it me, or is he not really a box office draw? "I don't think so. We've seen so many Marvel stars do other movies or plays and being in Marvel doesn't translate to popularity in non-Marvel material. I could see sales picking up if word of mouth and reviews are good, though. The most intriguing thing to me is the headphone aspect.

I loved the original production and recognize it’s a good play, not a great one, but all I currently hear is crickets. Guessing this production is either pretty mid or just not very memorable." In general I have noticed that the more expensive a show is, the less reviews of it we get on here. Which makes sense. I wouldn't infer from the lack of reviews that it's mid. It's just t...

"The cast was good, but not exceptional. Lola wasn't seductive enough. Rob McClure was hampered by significant cuts to "Those Were the Good Old Days." The story revisions were fine, but the show seemed afraid of offending anyone. The Game is entirely about horny baseball players, but because that involved telling tales about near seductions, it was toned down. Good Old Days is all about wreaking evil and havoc, so we lose some of the verses (and one of the great rhymes in all musicals ---- ca...
