to each their own but @Matt Rogers that was not my intention! I was very moved at the end and the performances are excellent. If anything, its sitting well/better with me a few days later.
But yes, the first 20 minutes is the lead telling us a story and then the second act has alot of "let me educate these characters about something so i can educate the audience as well" moments.

Dylan Mulvaney Show Cancelled? Sep 15
2025, 10:24:53 PM
i have nothing negative to say about SIX or about Dylan Mulvaney but theres a reason they havent stunt cast. Well, two reasons: theyve never had to, so that could be changing.
But the second reason is that the show consists of 3 group numbers and then six solo numbers; anyone big enough to bring in ticket buyers would likely be too big to spend 85% of the show singing backup and dancing in the background.... would be very surprised if Mulvaney agreed to

this should probably be one act--- it picks up a good pace but then stops and it takes a bit for it to get going again. its very expository---the lead is telling you a story most of the time, narrating a ton with minimal action interludes, and this gets worse in act 2 when we are preached to by a social worker who has to explain a bunch to us/the characters. i definitely think it dragged here and there. the structure makes little sense- we start in like a group meeting with Jacob talking to u

Come to find out later that it was ballroom House of Juicy Couture who came out to support some of their house members in the cast, but seemed to act like it was the JELLICLE BALL the whole time."

Apparently yesterday's show was canceled because Bryson Battle is sick--i dont know if there was a matinee today, so I dont know if I saw Fernell Hogan's first or second performance tonight. He was a standout ensemble member in Kimberly Akimbo because he has such a sweet charisma to him, and that served him very well tonight- a beautiful performance that was shaky only at the very end when he came out with a mini binder in hand for the last scenes with his mom at the ball. A huge kudo

(And for all the talk about how his real-life relationship with Shen would be a sell, they ultimately only went on together fourtimes in the first week.)"
Yes, its just FASCINATING that the producers cast the lead'

New Hadestown Casting Sep 5
2025, 09:10:23 PM
It would have been nice to see Breaker and Jones reunited, and I am sorry I missed him in any event because hes always such a fantastic actor, but I will definitely make my way back to see Jones in this. Ironic that it feels like the part was written for her, since she replaced Amber Grey in Oklahoma the season Hadestown came out.

wait you want OTHERS to give it a rest about policing peoples opinions? You who has posted 11 times about Jeff Ross being a monster whose show you hope fails miserably? You who keeps telling us how horrible everyone is for forgetting that article about him from 15 ys ago?
Everyone can say whatever they want, and everyone can comment on whatever you say, thats how it all works.

Was he found guilty of all the allegations? It seems like credible or not it doesn’t seem like anything was actually figured out? I’m not saying anything either way because I honestly don’t care about that man or his show but seems odd to continuously bash

Ill have to read the complaint more closely, but lotta misinterpretation in this thread.
first of all, OF COURSE shes going to ask for a trillion dollars. Most complaints will just say "an amount to be determined at trial" but you never undersell yourself. Her lawyers arent seriously expecting those figures.
second, doesnt the complaint reference a letter agreement of some sort? Lotta emphasis here on "the contract" but if shes got emails, or an offer l

what a thread. OP innocently posts story about delusional fan, and the most delusional troll tries to drag them, only to then make up a ridiculous story while ACTUALLY endangering the woman that needs to much protection we can't use the word "allegedly" anymore.
if Sutton WITNESSED the incident, she doesnt need to "believe" Audra because she saw it herself. what a silly liar.

Most South Koreans are anti Semitic? Is there ANYONE sane on this board?
Why would they run an ad campaign for Feldman when the show is selling so well bec it was The Award Winner of the season? The show is the star. 90% of ticket buyers dont care much about Criss (is the show empty when he was out?) or the racial makeup of whoever is playing Oliver. get out in the real world my god.

The reactions to Boris continue to astound.
I VERY MUCH understand why casting Andrew (as a temp replacement, opposite his real life AAPI girlfriend) ruffled feathers. Lots of well worded and measured responses to it that I was glad to read, even if the perspective is different than mine.
And then theres this board. over the top, unhinged, hysterical. the usual.

Its all damn impressive, but Lamberts choices are especially incredible in the clips I have seen. He feels born to sing this part, just as he was perfectly cast as the Emcee.
