ALL IN: COMEDY ABOUT LOVE Reviews

Hank was very funny! I hadn't seen any other casts so I can't offer thoughts there, but I loved what he did with it. I didn't realize my ticket was for his debut!
Annaleigh Ashford is incredible in this! Obviously biased (my profile pic lol) but that final monologue was so special, I loved it so much.
Was that performed by the other women in the cast (Renée, Aidy, Chloe)? I know some things have been switched around for the men, would love to know who delivered

Should've been Nicholas Christopher.

Yes, I might want someone to correct me privately and politely, not publicly and by way of predictable anduninspired snark.
I guess we're all entitled to our pet peeves, whether that be an extraneous comma or the aforementioned stale snark.
Believe it or not, I'm a semanticist by training (if not current employment), so I do know that words have meaning. I just don't think the extra apostrophe gets in the way of conveying the intended meaning."
I don't think a long-running BWW joke ("Tony's what?" - I'm not the first to say it and I won't be the last) could be considered snark in any significant way. Uninspired? Absolutely. A silly goofy inside joke? Perhaps! Snark? Nah my love. But it was nice to remember the Patti Murin incident because of your comment.

I only had to glance at the thread title and I knew that someone would ask this. Do you really not understand what was meant, or have you mistaken this message board for an English class?"

I'm very confused at the narrative we're throwing around here that Joy "doesn't have enough time" to go from Louise to Gypsy... hello?? Have we read the same script? Louise is a terribly well written role. And many actresses have found great success in playing her, pre-and-post Benanti, who remains definitive in my eyes. The issue, as said, is that a lot of those well written moments in The Strip are just completely gone in this production. And I don't mean to pick o

That experience would be different if the character was Black in the same situation and time and place. It would be written differently. You can't shoehorn the two experiences together. It doesn't do anyone any good.
Write a new Gypsy from a Black characters experience. So many of you are ju

one of them is miscast, and it's surely not the one who has six Tony Awards.

Amber Gray as Julie.

She's done Sondheim to great acclaim in New York and California, but never on Broadway. Yet.

From what I've heard, the new Lovett is a Sondheim vet but this will be her first time doing Sondheim on Broadway. Very, very excited if it's true.

His production of Guys and Dolls is going to be so edge you'll soil yourself. Sarah and Miss Adelaide perform "Marry the Man Today" while running in a giant gerbil wheel to illustrate their victimhood under The Patriarchy."
