I remember a few years back casting directors would list "No Les Miz or Miss Saigon" in their ads for auditions. What are the overdone songs right now?

Kim in Miss Saigon, although I'm 5'11" and blonde so I'm not sure how that would work out...

What makes a show "Broadway"? May 29
2006, 10:58:29 PM
Please excuse my naivete, but I was wondering what exactly makes a show a "Broadway" show as opposed to an "off-Broadway" show? Are B'way show only in certain theatres in New York? Is "off-Broadway" an official title, or can anyone open up a theatre in NYC and call themselves "off-Broadway"?

I agree in an idealistic way. I used to think the same thing about the music business. When Britney Spears makes millions off of an album her record company is able to use some of that money to take a risk on a smaller unknow artist. Unfortunatly I haven't heard many "risks" on the radio lately so I don't know how much water that argument holds. My fear is that the big Disney shows might some day take over Broadway the way Clear Channel has taken over music.

The Broadway shows we are intersted in are - Sweeny Todd Spelling Bee Avenue Q S
