Jordan Catalano said: "I saw that Madonna attended the show the other day and posted a photo of herself with the cast - that’s got to be exceptionally cool for them."
OMG! They must have been in heaven!

2025, 06:32:20 PM
I thought the director had quite a flair for staging and it elevated the quality of the production. The two lead actors lacked a bit of chemistry (I thought it might have been purposeful at first) but part of that had to do with the dialogue which felt at times like it was coming from a writer rather than the characters. The first half had momentum but I found my mind slowly going elsewhere in the second hour. Rachael Crowl was excellent; very natural. Loved her! The cast for the most pa

Rob Madge's MY SON'S A QUEER... not at the Lyceum February 2024 Jun 15

BorisTomashevsky said: "When the name is “Rob”, with a mustache (at least in all promo shots), and a receding hairline to rival Danny Burstein, perhapsthe entrenched social conditioning that leads to “he” can be more easily forgiven."
Thank you! Today’s matinee was on club free time last night. I don’t know if it’s still there. There is a talkback after the performance today.

Nobody is doing it intentionally or maliciously."
I didn’t say anyone was doing it intentionally or maliciously. But it blows my mind that you could sit through THAT Show and still make that mistake."

They are not selling balcony and are moving people down so everyone is sitting together. This is happening at the box office. So if you bought Mezzanine and already have your tickets and you want to be moved it probably will be possible by visiting the box office upon entrance. Or just move down when the show starts.
I agree the show would have played better in a smaller house. It has a definite off Broadway vibe to it. It Would’ve worked well at the Belmont too with the

I saw the dress and I enjoyed it immensely. It is a moving account of a young man growing up queer and longing for the stage with a supportive family who encouraged his uniqueness. It is very timely in a new world where a president is declaring that boys are boys and girls are girls. The script is thoughtful and is woven together with home movies and pleasant musical numbers that are performed professionally with a live band. If you are a queer person who found your people in the theater and

It played better within the context of the script when I say her on stage. You also had to see her performance leading up to the song to appreciate it. Well deserved!

Jonathan Groff just dropped the f word twice during a red carpet interview with Frank DiLella on NY1 and Frank looks like he is going to have a stroke. I have not laughed so hard in weeks!

I predict they will not pick properties that are too obscure. They will be concentrating on material that will sell out.

I felt the song selections could have been tied together more effectively. As it was, I felt distanced from the material. The set design reminded me of a cruise ship which marginalized the proceedings. When the entire ensemble was on the stage the actors clashed with the design, made even more dizzying by the reflective floor. Some of the choreography looked like dance moves from a swing choir convention.

I loved his music! I had no idea that he composed the theme song for All In The Family. Stick Around from Golden Boy was always my go to audition number back in the day. I am happy that he and his wife had such a long life together.
After Jonathan Groff finishes the Bobby Darin musical perhaps he could do a Bye Bye Birdie revival with City Center Encores or for Broadway. Better yet for television! RIP….
