Has Broadway ever really been a comfortable home for full-length magic acts, aside from bonafide celebrity magicians like Penn & Teller? 

Definitely an out-of-left-field candidate for CSC’s first ever Broadway transfer.

It technically “opened.” But I think it’s the first time in decades a show has closed before reviews got published. 

Wow, I forgot all about that flop Brighton Beach/Broadway Bound! A weird case- it was well-reviewed, well-cast, and a recognizable title, yet closed in about a week after it formally opened. But that was also the 09-10 season, arguably the season most affected by the Great Recession (aka the year of Memphis). 

I've now tried on the Chrome and BWW apps- neither of which have I ever used to access BWW before- and I am getting the same issue. I can only successfully log into BWW from my desktop instance of Firefox. 
 

edit: it now suddenly seems to work?

I can no longer log back in on the mobile site on Safari (iOS 18.6.2) at all. When I hit "Login" at any location, it says "Click here to sign out," which does nothing. Returning to the login area just displays the same "click here to sign out" again. 

We get it, girl, you have a weird vendetta against Michael Arden for some reason. 

I honestly don't think much in the way of any kind of recording exists for it considering it was a very small production that ran about a month, but I happened to see the revival of Anyone Can Whistle at the Jermyn Street Studio Theatre while on a college trip to London in 2010 and I loved it. It was staged in a very Brechtian style that suited the material extremely well. The cast wasn't made up of big names, though an at-the-time ascendant Rosalie Craig was Fay!

I think it's telling that Arden is largely spared much of the criticism in the major reviews. 

Alienating the main audience base of the Kennedy Center while doing absolutely nothing to attract a supposedly new audience is certainly the level of business strategy we should expect from Trump and his lickspittles. 

Yeah, tonight is the "gala" opening with a party at the Plaza. Let them eat cake!

Sure, BroadwayFlash. 

This seems like yet another show that would benefit from "just get them in the door" pricing for previews, especially since it seems to be targeting younger audiences. 

I truly forgot this was happening until I saw a poster yesterday pasted up on 2nd avenue in East Harlem, of all places. And it's been in performances already for 3 weeks!

Is she simply acknowledging theBoop!tour, or might she he coming back to lead it?"

The tour is non-union and Rogers has had zero problem getting exciting, high-profile jobs following her run on Broadway, so...

Do you mean the same puppet designs or the same physical puppets? If the latter, I would imagine that due to wear and tear, they will be newly constructed for this.
