Profile
I am a producer of world class media (stage, film, TV, audio recording), and in addition I develop and produce original, indigenous talent in all areas of media production, in concert with production possibilities in major U.S. cities. In my spare time, I screw around on the Internet.
I used to post here as gvendo2005, but in turning over a new leaf with regard to my Internet persona, I felt a new account was needed. And... here I am!

Re: Tim Rice's Diary: My new show with Andrew Lloyd Webber | The Spectator

Oct 22, 2026 — 7:51:49 PM

Looks like Tim's kids (who are, incidentally, the producers) tried to prevent another Cricket situation, and Andrew told them to get stuffed.(Context: In 1986, Rice and Lloyd Webber were commissioned to develop a musical for the Queen's 60th birthday celebration. They wrote a light-hearted, sung-through, half-hour comedy called Cricket, which ran for three performances -- at Windsor Castle, Lloyd Webber's Sydmonton Festival, and the 1986 Lord's Taverners Ball. ALW then cannibalized the score ...

Re: Deaf West Revival of Whistle Down the Wind

Aug 5, 2026 — 4:34:42 PM

I think they're encumbering it by adding more ghosts (though, granted, it is partially to use one of Deaf West's stock tricks of the trade), and it doesn't sound fully thought out. From what I'm hearing, they'd have been much better off with my idea (explicated elsewhere in this thread), but hey, you gotta try something to see if it works. I'm willing to be proven wrong if they pull it off.

TBFL said: "Elena Shaddow as Ghost of Swallow’s MotherNow i'm intrigued."Clearly the director saw the Watermill production in the UK four years ago. The ghost of Swallow's mom was a constant presence in that one, watching over her shoulder and dancing with her.The pros to that approach: it brings Swallow's grief to the forefront, centering it as a guide for her every thought and deed, which (to some) may explain her irrational behavior as dictated by the book.The cons: it was distracting, and...

Re: P!nk and her daughter are doing Next to Normal

Jul 21, 2026 — 12:13:36 PM

To the extent it is true, the kid seems sweet, and I think that Pink means well in trying to help her achieve her dreams. (Disclaimer: In my opinion, every parent has the best intentions for their child unless they themselves are so broken that that's impossible.)That said, I also think her kid will look back and wish she hadn't come to Broadway like this, because a) every bitchy commentator, especially here, will say she didn't earn it, and b) she's way too young to be playing this part in p...

If I Had A Broadway Time Machine… April-May 1966

Jul 12, 2026 — 6:09:29 PM

Six words: Jesus Christ Superstar, original Broadway cast. [Or, as I call it, "Insect Christ Futurestar."] I recently did a pictorial walkthrough using the Friedman-Abeles photos from the NYPL digital collection, with help from original cast members and Tom O'Horgan's assistant, and it looks fascinating​​​​.

Stephen King Wants a Bat out Of Hell Musical

By the looks of the replies, many have. Warms my heart to see how many times the vampire piece was mentioned, thanks to his bringing up "Total Eclipse" as well.

DREAMGIRLS is finally returning to Broadway

Jun 9, 2026 — 7:15:23 PM

Matt Rogers said: "They already did a reproduction of the original in 2009, in the Apollo Theatre production that was supposed to move to Broadway but didn't. The same rights holders are responsible for the stale reproduction of A Chorus Line that landed on Broadway with a thud in 2006. No more museum pieces. Let’s have something original."It would be one thing if it were the only version of Dreamgirls we'd ever seen, as was the case with A Chorus Line, thus the stale quality. It hasn't been ...

BAT OUT OF HELL - Town Hall

May 3, 2026 — 8:41:27 AM

Sources have led me to understand that they took advantage of Steinman's severe illness to make a lot of decisions for him, and, unable to intervene directly due to physical inability to travel, he eventually decided to let go and let God, so to speak.

BAT OUT OF HELL - Town Hall

chrishuyen said: "I'm sympathetic to this as it seems like something that Steinman wanted his whole life, but as a Bat Out of Hell fan that only came to the material by way of the musical, it seems like there's a lack of focus (or perhaps too much?) and the long writing process had allowed the songs to take on a life of their own. While not strictly speaking a jukebox musical, it nonetheless feels like one simply because so many songs feel dropped into the scenes, and the audience seems to mo...

EricMontreal22 said: "As a Steinman fan I of course too have listened to the bootlegs, and read the scripts of the earlier versions of Steinman's apocalyptic, sexy teen Peter Pan musicals, but I think Steinman himself had kinda come to terms that the show wasn't going to really be *that* going back to the early Manchester version? Or do I have it wrong...."He grudgingly accepted it. A lot of these choices, I am given to understand, were made as his health problems continued to worsen, and wer...

raddersons said: "Is there still a character named “Tink”?"Yes, but their B-plot has been cut down so much that they're almost vestigial at this point, and have been played by either a woman or a man. Click Here To Toggle Spoiler ContentThey don't even die anymore.

trentsketch said: "How much plot is really needed? The music is the draw. Make it a theatrical concert with a couple lines to establish a context and connect the dots. Then let the cast dance and sing the hell out of it."Well, when you're a Jim Steinman fan aware that the plot was supposed to be the whole point, that this show was the culmination of a 50-year dream of putting this particular story onstage so that the songs were finally presented in the context for which they were originally i...

Well, there's less book and less music. It didn't fix anything, but apparently, they sing the **** out of it.

It works better when Svetlana sings the lyrics more specific to her that Tim wrote for her in Sydney in 1990.
