I mean by Tony eligibility there are new musicals but The Lost Boys is technically the only “new” musical in the sense that it’s the unknown one without previous productions and transfers. If only Dead Outlaw held off a season… and if only Paddington, Mexodus and Bat Boy had opened this season (with Bat Boy somehow eligible in New Musical as correct me if I’m wrong the published perform version is mostly the original off

^Agree completely, ColorTheHours048! 

Can we just talk about the amount of performances up for consideration in all four acting categories is insane. So many of them were honestly win competitive in any other year and each of the four categories had at least two or three actors left off nominations that could easily have been nominated and win competitive in any other year… (Paul Mescal, Ariana Grande, Odessa A’zion, Joel Eggerton, Amanda S

Given his comedy chops and previous theater experience, Broadway could definitely be on the cards for him. However, with his rising star power, it’s just as likely that he has bigger TV or film projects in mind. Either way, it’s clear that his talent will keep shining beyond SNL!"

This reads like an AI response.

Also, regarding these split part movies: I honestly think the best way it’s been done to date is with one of my top 20 favorite films of all time… Kill Bill. Released Pt 1 in theatre’s fall and Pt 2 in the spring. I know that wasn’t supposed to be a split movie and it’s the only time the disgraced rapist EP didn’t go scissor happy and cut the films to pieces… but that model should be followed more often. 

Like, what if Wicked Pt 1 was re

Paul Mescal not getting a supporting nomination and It Was Just an Accident not getting in for Picture and Director are the most egregious things about the nominations. However, I’m ecstatic for Delroy Lindo; I wish there could have been a tie and supporting actor had all six nominated. Not surprised Ariana didn’t make it but I’m kind of shocked Elle Fanning is who knocked her out over Odessa A’zion. I would have nominated Amanda Seyfried for the fifth slot in Lead ove

MagicalMusical said: "So while yes, it’s true I have not seen a lot of the movies that could have Oscar worthy performances this year, I truly cannot see a world where Ariana’s performance doesnot garner an Oscar nomination. I also think she will win, but admittedly that is, as I said, without knowing much of the competition."

Having seen all of the films that are competitive in Best Supporting Actress at the Oscars, I still think Ariana is going to get a

According to Paige (lighting designer), Frankie Grande is indeed attached to the Broadway run, as well as Tommy Bracco. Paige and her Wife Izzy announced it (possibly prematurely if no other casting has been announced?) on the RHAP Podcast (Rob Has A Podcast).  Izzy and Paige appeared on the most recent season of The Amazing Race placing 4th on the season that featured all Big Brother players and their loved ones. Izzy was on season 25 of BB (alongside the GOAT of reality competition and

Can we turn GOOD movies into musicals. Not everything works for the stage - Beaches, etc - and this doesn't strike me as too theatrical. I could understand why with the bar dancing, but the characters d

Im pretty sure by even suggesting this you are revealing yourself to be a member of the Ku Klux Klan."

As for the whole “joined today” thing, that is not me reinventing myself.

Okay, maybe my original post read differently than I meant it to. I was not trying to start a rumor, stir anything up, or imply Tracy Letts suddenly decided to direct his own play. I know Cromer is directing. I know Letts wrote it. That was never the question.

 

What I was pointing out is that it is genuinely strange when two different industry people, both of whom usually know what they are talking about, casually repeat the same wrong detail a week or so apart. That is al

I assume this was just a mistake by both podcasters… but last week, while listening to The Ankler’s Prestige Junkie with Katey Rich, she interviewed Tracy Letts. In her introduction (which sounded like it was recorded separately and not with him in the room), she mentioned that he would be directing his play Bug on Broadway.

 

I literally paused, rewound, and replayed it because I thought, “Wait—did Cromer drop out? Maybe he left for Gatsby?”

I’m wondering if everyone who keeps getting logged out (or can’t access their account at all, like me) is on iPhone and recently updated to iOS 26.1? I’ve been on the beta since September with zero issues, but the second 26.1 went public, I completely lost access to my BWW account. My iPad Pro wasn’t on beta, so I could still log in there… until iPadOS 26.1 updated, and then boom: locked out on that too.
