I haven’t stopped listening to Hopeless War and I could talk to you for hours. I hope this wins musical and score.

Hello, Dolly! with Bernadette Peters will forever be my fondest theater memory.

I just looked the show up. Seems bonkers and lowkey (highkey) very racist to have a black man play a gorilla with 2 white scientists.

Musicals that will never be revived on Broadway May 20
2024, 11:19:22 PM
For some reason I feel like we will never see a revival of Sister Act…and that’s me having no real opinion on the show besides loving Raise You Voice, Life I Never Led and Fabulous Baby.

Some of these responses are so interesting!

I have been listening all day and have nothing to add but I could listen to Jin and Micaela sing forever.

I saw this again on Mother’s Day and while it’s really imperfect there’s enough about the show that I do like at the end of the day. Amber Iman is just blowing the roof off the place. George Abud and Natalie Joy Johnson are just giving such FUN performances. Eden is there. And I appreciate the ambition, even if I feel it often fails. I’m sad to see this go. I wish it had more time.

Who Are You? May 14
2024, 09:51:12 PM
I have a very odd question but I’m watching real housewives before bed and I can’t stop thinking something…..who are you all?
I read these boards every day, almost compulsively. I get all my news here. I know people’s screen names and profile pictures by heart. Even if there are people I don’t care for on these boards, I just can’t help but be fascinated by you all. So I just would like to ask, who are you?

I'm shocked Stereophonic wasn't even a finalist - no shade to these shows!

THE GREAT GATSBY Opening Night Critics’ Reviews May 2
2024, 11:39:07 PM
Saw this on Monday. It wasn’t awful, but it was extremely pedestrian from the direction to the book and lyrics.
I missed Eva, but her understudy (and I hate to say this) was really not good. Would like to go back to see Eva. I thought Samantha Pauly was great.
The biggest problem for me was that Noah Ricketts was SO much more charismatic and interesting than Jeremy Jordan. I read the book in high-school and don’t remember it super

The 77th Annual Tony Award Nominations for 2024 Apr 30
2024, 09:23:59 AM
Hell's Kitchen leading the musical noms is so disappointing, one of my least favorite shows this season/ever. Really don't understand how Here Lies Love didn't make it's way into musical. Sad about Conrad as well.
So happy for Nikki M James, Stereophonic and Jaja's though! The plays were where it was at this season!

2024 Tony Predictions Apr 29
2024, 11:11:18 AM
This was my first year living in New York and getting to see pretty much all eligible shows (still have a few to see) tomorrow I’m really hoping
Here Lies Love + Outsiders get a musical nom
Conrad Ricamora + Nikki M James get supporting noms
Stereophonic gets a play nom (pretty much the only sure bet)
I also really hope Jaja’s gets a play nom and some acting noms. I loved that show so much!

ILLINOISE Reviews Apr 28
2024, 10:04:04 PM
Saw this tonight. I don’t think this type of show is for me. Beautiful dancing, beautiful music - just not for me. I am a little surprised so many people think this is the front runner for best musical, but once again that may be a personal taste thing. Glad so many are enjoying though!
Really nice show to see on an edible tho!

What’s Your Favorite Song From the 23-24 Season Apr 26
2024, 07:02:30 PM
This is a tough one but I have to say it’s a tie between The Soldier’s Song from Here We Are and Here Lies Love (I know it technically was off Broadway forever ago, but it was my first time hearing it in the Broadway production).

THE OUTSIDERS Opening Night Critics’ Reviews Apr 22
2024, 11:29:30 AM
I saw this yesterday and wow - I loved it. Probably my favorite new musical of the season so far besides Here Lies Love (I still have HK, HR&R, and Gatsby to see). Everything about this show is pretty flawless besides the book, but the other elements are so top notch, they make up for it. The Rumble was absolutely thrilling. The song Great Expectations was another major highlight.
I really hope this gets Tony love.

2. I think, for me it would be any two Sondheim shows, and if I had to pick two? The OBC of SITPWG and Here We Are. (or Company)
3. Dinner: Red Rooster, up in Harlem."
Thank you! I made a year cancer free in December thankfully! GREAT choices.
