Still his finished products are at times impressive--Sunset Blvd was fun, if not silly--and I am sure EVITA will be plenty entertaining. I will 100% see it when it inevitably transfers and everyone loses their mind over Zegler's Tony chances.

Is Lloyd going to use similar devices as Sunset? Yes. Is Casey Nicholaw going to have a tap number? Yes. People have styles, even the ones you don't associate it with, simply because theirs are more common or traditional.
This looks like it has more costumes than Regency 19, yes? Can anyone speak to the differences yet? It als

Or maybe it’s a cost-saving measure from Nobile. Train audiences how to find their own seats."
At 755, there was someone standing near the bar directing people towards the dark hallway that leads you to the theater, but no one at the end of it, so everyone was walking in and then wandering around and manually trying to f

krasinski is excellent--really great, in a beast of a role, essentially a 90 minute monologue-- in a sadly disappointing play. i could see the "twist" coming a mile away, but even if i had been surprised, im not sure this would have done much for me. i get why krasinski was cast- one of the most likeable big name actors playing such a familiar troll, but it works against the play. hes too charming.
still the 90 mins moves pretty quick, and our affordable seats were pret

It's the other way around"
Audra will be forgotten after six months? Is this in the same universe where Ariana DeBose is trans?

RWHC was nominated for Score, the other two were not—at least that's how I'm rationalizing it."
this is a good answer, thanks.
Darren Criss is a class act.

Politics are politics, I get
