Broadway Flash said: "Umm everything? The score, the melodies, the gorgeous story, the beautiful performances, the stunning design. The direction, choreo. Outsiders won because gay men loved a single number in that dreary show."
The design, direction, and choreo were lacking, which is exactly why The Outsiders was able to beat it for Best Musical.
Has anyone had any experience with the wheelchair seats? It says that no seat is present, but I know for a fact there are removable seats there, and if you put one in a cart, it says it's a regular seat. At this point, they really should be up for grabs.
Oh Mary! has broken the Lyceum's 8-performance house record, grossing $1,054,998.00 for the week ending 7/21. It's the first time any show there has reached $1 million. Go, Cole!
Saw the 5p show today, and, for me, the show absolutely lost some of its downtown magic, mainly owing to the seemingly humorless theatregoers in my vicinity that were probably only there to see the current hot ticket. I'm guessing the 8:30p Saturday audience is more receptive, but the wet blankets around me this afternoon bummed me out.

That doesn't make for NEARLY the dramatic statement though."
True, fact-based statements are usually super boring.
Nothing about A.R.T's Gatsby, from the production itself to the marketing graphics, resembles the Baz Luhrmann film. The "G" logo is the only possible thing I could think of, but even that would be a big stretch. Everything about the Broadway show, however, looks heavily inspired by Catherine Martin's designs.

The first Monday being 11/4, since the show is dark on Election Day.
