Profile for Kad

Well, with the announced cast, it seems exceptionally unlikely that this incarnation will become a full production. 

Cross seems like much better casting for Tartuffe, honestly. 

I've never seen Broderick be anything but a vacuum of charisma onstage. The rest of the cast is incredible and hopefully the production can counterbalance him. 

The Hudson's windows don't have balconies, though. They're also not floor to ceiling, they're about waist-height on the wall in that room.

Every audience member will be given an allen wrench and illustration-only instruction booklet and they will help build the Armfeldt family manse. 

Swedish people really do find themselves in some wacky romantic entanglements, though. Very unique to the culture. 

I mean, Evita as a show is itself conceptual. It is not a traditional book musical- it is a series of musical numbers that illustrate events or ideas. I don't think it really can hold up if you try to make it a realistic or literal production.

if true, this will be thebroadway debut (so overdue) for Samuel D. Hunter!"

I had to stop and think about that for a second- it is wild he hasn't had a work on Broadway yet.

Nobody is doing it intentionally or maliciously. 

I think the musical improves on the movie in quite a few ways, in terms of plot and structure. I think it's the "better" piece overall. 

Quite a few people on this board floated the idea that "vote splitting" would occur that would result in Jasmine winning Best Actress. 

I would love to see Amber Iman as Kate in Wild Party.

Stone was certainly an exception, but so was the Mendes Cabaret revival, which was able to pull in notable replacements during both its runs. If this revival had been as lauded here from the get-go, it maybe would be able to attract bigger name replacements. 

I wish we would move on from treating every show closure as an unjust tragedy. 

I’ve had it confirmed to me that Diane Paulus is indeed directing this. 

I thought this would make it through the summer at the very least- its advance must be as dire as its word of mouth, and it must have more shallow pockets than those behind Boop and RWHC. 

We still don’t definitively know what the staging will be. We know they filmed Rachel singing on the theater balcony, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that’s how the show will be staged.
