I think what elevated this show from a Vegas revue to a zeitgeist theatrical moment was the affable Jonathan Groff. He was so vulnerable and likable that you gave over to him and trusted him. You were willing to take the journey with him and suspend disbelief. He sounds nothing like Darin but it didn’t matter. His charm and talent won you over.

Speaking of trust, I do think being Groff being gay is a quality that appeals to

I have no issues with Morrison. I feel he is talented. That being said, I have never experienced him as a warm performer. I’ll be curious how he sells the show to audiences.

Back Row said: "The nature of the show almost guaranteesthat whoever is playing Bobby is going to come in with his own obsessed fan base. That certainly is the case with the first two replacements. As annoying as it is, I think the producers are counting on those “obsessed middle aged women” to keep the show on a front burner for awhile. I’m curious to see how it all plays out. Morrison can dance circles around both Groff and Jordan, who are both better vocally. And

Seems like many of the JIT hardcore fans are unwell. They’ve made it a part of their identity, are crying and saying they think about the show everyday. We ain’t talking just teens either. Older folks too.  I’m sure Groff is happy to get a break from all that. 


Outsiders Tour Cast vs. Broadway Cast?
 Mar 28 2026, 02:42:59 PM

Tour cast is top tier. Nolan is a marvelous Pony Boy. Bonale is a wonderful Johnny.  I thought the tour cast was better than the current Broadway cast. The current Broadway cast feels low energy compared to the OBC.

Lea Michele 54 Below

I can see her preferring to perform at swanky supper clubs and charging higher prices so as not to deal with riff raff. On her "tour" she charged an extra $100+ to meet her and she was unwilling to sign even one item per person. That's terrible.

She tried to do a mini tour in 2025 with 8 dates. I believe she cancelled 3 of them. I don't think concerts are in her cards unless she starts pooping up at orchestra gigs.

Personally I see no evidence that Liza doesn’t know what’s going on. And on the contrary, she seems to be happy to be there and happy to promote the book.


So, as sad as it is to watch her in this shape, I don’t see the evidence this is all Michael’s doing.

Well if Michael is the “friend” he claims to be he’d NEVER allow her dignity and sa

The video of her leaving the theatre and people trying to get her into the car is shameful. Absolutely shameful. Whoever is coordinating her care and transportation should be fired. First, she deserved a private exit, even if it meant staff holding up blankets or creating a wall between her and people and cameras on the street. 
 

Second, they needed people trained in transfers assisting her out of the chair and into the car. Sickening.

Individuals with a disability or in decline do not need to be hidden, unless that is their wish. If Liza wants to be out and about then god bless her. She has love to give and so do her fans. 

After this appearance thought it is abundantly clear she did not record the audiobook and she did not sign thousands of books so perfectly. The signed option should not have been offered since they are most likely autopen.

For example, she had that chunk where CharlesAznavour was everywhere in her life, Jim Caruso was around a lot, Billy Stritch was with Liza for another chunk, then Michael Feinstein.

I had some reservations about Liza "producing" his Gershwin Country album. Something seemed very clout to me about that. I

Almost every retail book outlet in the US and UK (including indie shops) has sold signed copies. Theres no ways she could have signed all those. It’s either autopen or secretarial with possibly some she signed mixed in. 
 

This is feeling like a Feinstein production all the way around with a guest appearance by Liza. Sad.

“I'm going to take it as a good sign that Premiere Collectibles is sold out of signed copies of Liza's book. If those copies were autopen, there would be no reason for them to ever sell out. You can always fire up the pen and "sign" more.”

Thats not really how it works. An author typically signs a set number of “tip in” pages that are bound into books during pressing. The publisher agrees on a number (10,000) with the author and those are distr


Jennifer Lopez to Star in KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN Film
 Mar 1 2026, 12:17:08 AM

I respect what they were trying to do, but it all fell flat to me. Insert a cheap looking J Lo music video into the film every twenty minutes. God bless her, but she’s out of her element. She has no gravitas to play the duality of the character or bring any sense of dread or malevolence. I thought she and Diego Luna were pretty dreadful. Miscast. Tonatiuh was a revelation. Couldn’t save the movie though. 
 

I loved the darkness and melancholy of the original


Jinx Monsoon to play Judy Garland in London production of END OF THE RAINBOW
 Feb 24 2026, 11:24:12 PM

I think the play itself is quite terrible. I liked Tracie’s performance but felt the text was seedy and tabloid fodder. I was surprised Jinkx who has a supreme reverence for Garland would attach herself. Maybe she’s the missing piece that can make the show work. I wonder if there will be any edits or rewrites.

She notoriously cancelled appearances even when she was healthier. I thought this may get cancelled even if it sold well. If she doesn’t feel up to it, it’s not happening.

I also have a sneaking suspicion her signed books will be autopen. I’ll check the autograph message boards after they are released.
