Goodness I loved this one so much. I wasn't expecting to, and thought the promo stuff sounded/looked cheesy and silly. It IS a little silly but on purpose, I think, and I do agree less blame should be placed on the media... and more time should be spent exploring Larry and his relationships... but I really did love it. I thought the music was clever and incredibly catchy. 

That's probably true! We're getting two in the Chicagoland area from major companies and now this one... which admittedly is only three! I can't recall large equity theaters running productions but I'm sure it happens all the time. As you said, it is a great play! Great opportunities for actors and staging. I'm excited. 

What's the deal with Amadeus suddenly being everywhere next season? Classic without politics?

Or maybe he has bills to pay like everybody else dos"

Right. Jorge is suggesting that Doyle has to go to Korea to pay his bills because there's too little work here. That's an endorsement of Jorge said. Was that your intention?

A movie with Nicole feels like... a very bad idea. Everything strong about her performance is rooted in the theatrical. They should film the production. 

"these facts are not only on that news channel. They are everywhere in the real world."

How can someone's prediction of what 100 years in the future be facts? Is that how we're defining "facts" now? Opinions and predictions are not and never will be "facts" no matter how strongly you believe them.

The Courtyard theater is noticeably smaller than the theater Brokeback played in the West End. That's if they don't modify it at all. They can move the seats on the floor around quite a bit. 

American Psycho was a really fantastic production of above average material that did seem a little weird for Broadway but I'd imagine would have been at least a moderate success had it premiered any other season. 

I continue to be stumped that Groundhog Day flopped. Top notch material, top notch cast, and top notch production. You never know I guess.

I didn't really like Barbie a "misfire" is incredibly bizarre given its critical and financial success. Also. Again, I didn't like it, but it was incredibly successful at what it set out to do artistically. I didn't think it was terribly interesting or original in what it was trying to do... but it was incredibly successful at what it set out to do artistically.

 

Is this a joke? I've tried to ignore this person but the last comment has really pushed this into absurdity. Has this been a dumb joke the whole time? 

Who has this kind of. time on their hands?

"the playwright's quick success" 

I'm so confused by what is meant by this.

"Someone snuck their dog in with them (are service dogs allowed?)"

Service dogs don't bark unless it's part of their duties. If the dog barked it wasn't a service dog, it's a bad service dog, or its owner was about to have a medical emergency. 

I agree the narration slows the play down. I think symbolically it creates a sense of isolation for the main character, tho, that feels like an essential part of the theme of the show. He's not IN the story. Just like he's not IN the family, really. 

I don't think that means its necessary... but I think it's an interesting thing to grapple with.
