troynow said: "The problem with people getting “paychecks” is that Garth has basically fulfilled the contract except one part… Benefits. He has not paid any actors or crew benefits since March.
The challenge here is that he is doing the paycheck and leaving the benefits to arbitration. In arbitration he will lose ultimately, however at that tome there will be no money to get.
His personal fees are outrageous on this show"

Or at least the people working directly in the theatre are –– we don't know about what agencies and other service providers might be owed. Equity and the other unions would intervene if their members weren't being paid. The production is bonded with AEA for this very reason.

When and if PSQ closes, what do you think the investors will lose? I here close $15 million. How does the bond work? Who is protected ?

Is it time for a 'Sweet Charity' revival starring Ariana DeBose ?

great idea - but Chita defined it with her smoke and grit - anyone who came after did not capture it - including the car crash that was Maria Conchita Alonso. So bad.

I loved Ariana's energy. yes the songs were cheesy - but bravo on taking this on. The real highlight was not the show - but Rita Moreno on 60 Minutes before this show. She is selfless, iconic and pure magic.

I thought the evening was great. I don't agree with the NYT review that it was "bland". I think the voter's got it right. I assume some key shows like Girl From and Paradise will post closing notices this week .

True calling? lol. There is NO WE in I. His words triggered many bad memories for me at LIVENT. Allow me that much needed therapy to heal."
With all due respect, joining a Broadway message board today to vent is a total waste of time. You’re better off just deleting this new account or else you’re going to be spending your week defending yourself. Silence is golden. We truly don’t need to hear about your personal issues with LIVENT.  "
I joined as I was triggered by his statement. People need outlets for PTSD. Onwards, I will now silence myself, Mr. Fosse,

PARADISE SQUARE will release an original Broadway cast album
Jun 13

I heard it was recorded but some vendors are still owed money on getting it mixed and released. They should have just dropped a single on spotify and itunes, a cast album will sell 125 units max.

It's been a long time since I have been involved in the Broadway community since leaving LIVENT, but when I watched BW red carpet coverage and saw producer Garth Drabinsky say; " I was put on this earth to produce", I nearly fainted. Who says that? While the evening could not have turned out being what he hoped for, his hubris does not match the message of his show of inclusivity. I WAS PUT ON THIS EARTH TO PRODUCE. Oy vey, happy travel
