Re: IN THE HEIGHTS (off-Broadway) Encores! at NYCC - Discussion & Reviews

Seller's presence is also explained by the fact that he is a longtime supporter of Lin and produced the original production when it was off-Broadway, as well as Hamilton and now The Warriors. Of course he'd be there.

Re: Jamie Lloyd Company Popup Shop?

Oct 28, 2026 — 5:24:57 PM

I’m confused what exactly the store will be selling. Merch from previous Lloyd productions? New things? Are there collaborations? Lloyd himself doesn’t have products or books or anything, nor can I imagine he has a ton of say in what show merch looks like.

Re: Wicked sent out a mailer

Sales may be softer than usual but c'mon. This production is no imminent danger and was coming off of almost two years of extremely heightened box office figures thanks to the films, including breaking Broadway box office records with the highest weekly gross ever recorded. It has money in the bank to spare, has long ago paid off its debts, is approaching the busiest time of year, and resides in the biggest broadway house that will unlikely be able to find another tenant that can reliably fil...

Re: Real Housewives to lead Off-Broadway revival of RUMORS in 2027

Is this the first major revival of any Neil Simon play in NYC since the ill-fated Brighton Beach Memoirs/Broadway Bound revivals in 2009? Am I failing to remember any others?

Odd Couple is apparently preparing to announce as soon as this week.

It’s certainly a bummer it’s delayed but considering the production was very nearly not recorded at all, outrage over a delay feels a little unnecessary.

Real Housewives to lead Off-Broadway revival of RUMORS in 2027

I was aware of the workshop for this that happened earlier this year but genuinely wasn't really sure if it was... real?

Cheyenne Jackson for the win!

Angela Lansbury famously got older and underemployed actors hired on Murder, She Wrote purely so they could earn insurance.

Well, Sean Nyberg was certainly vocal about taking credit for the album happening and yet has been totally silent on its delay.

She should be forced to do the show again with New Orleans flavor.

Well, that is about as clear as mud.

I wanted to get a quick refresher on Hall’s various controversies and foibles and discovered his Wikipedia is scrubbed clean of all of them. It’s now basically just an extremely embellished resume.

Re: So who's actually going to the RENT 30th concert?

Oct 25, 2026 — 8:27:42 AM

Considering this has something like 60 performers attached, it’s safe to say you’re not getting the OBC performing the full show. These BCEFA concerts have usually tended to have different performers for every number.

So who's actually going to the RENT 30th concert?

Oct 24, 2026 — 10:18:45 AM

Diggs did the reunion at the Festival in August and was… almost laughably unprepared. Hopefully he took a look at the script again for this Monday. Interestingly, the only OBC member skipping out on both reunions is Jesse L. Martin.

Is there actually that much explicit sampling or lifting of other work in the score or is the score merely derivative? There tends to be a habit of a pile-on of criticism in situations like this, throwing less substantiated criticisms in with legitimate ones.

Re: Todrick Hall's MIDNIGHT (Off-Broadway)

That pricing structure would make sense in a big Broadway-sized house, but this is a 14-row, 300ish-seat off-Broadway space. They're all good viewing. To say nothing of $399 for this being absurd, as is the lowest price in the extension being $79-99 depending on the day. This is just an expensive boondoggle of a production.

Nearly all of the previously "sold out" performances have now released seats, ranging from a single seat to a quite a number of them.

THIS WORLD OF TOMORROW transfering to Broadway in 2027 with Hanks and O’Hara

Oct 22, 2026 — 1:46:19 PM

Surprised we're seeing this again after how forgettable its Shed run was. Maybe they'll use the intervening time to make some much needed edits. Regardless, it will be a sure hot ticket and commanding high prices with Hanks.

Re: Todrick Hall's MIDNIGHT (Off-Broadway)

Ticket sales are analyzed here all the time. And in the case of Midnight, it is deeply unusual for a show to cancel the first two weeks of its limited run because (allegedly) the production couldn't physically fit into the venue safely. That is not a normal thing that happens at this level. It is also very unusual for one person to serve as writer-composer, director, choreographer, lead producer, and star of a production... because it leads to things like a bloated 3-hour show that had to can...
