Sounds like a show hand picked for Sutton Foster. She would be a great Drood.

I hope they make a cast recording. I wonder what the orchestra will be like. I enjoy these new songs to an extent, but I think with some good orchestrations they could really be great.

I liked it, but a Book of Mormon opening would have been better.

Best/Worst Cast Recordings Of The Season Jun 8
2011, 10:24:05 PM
There are quite a few excellent recordings this season. I enjoy Book of Mormon, Catch Me If You Can, Women On the Verge, and Wonderland a great deal. I also really like the London Sister Act and the Off-Broadway Scottsboro Boys (if those count). I am not a fan of the new How to Succeed in Business recording, but I don't think it's awful, just out-shined by it's predecessors. The whole time I was listening to it, the word "unnecessary" kept popping into my head. I do like the idea of Cindere

Question - H2S in Business 1995 vs. 2011 revival Jun 8
2011, 10:15:31 PM
I believe the women only came out on the Tony Awards. During the regular performances, Miss Jones was the only female in the song the entire time. That 95 revival is very similar to the original until Miss Jones starts singing, then it is unrecognizable the rest of the time.
I am curious to know what came first, Lillias White and they took it to church because of her, or they decided to take it to church, so they hired Lillias White.

I think my favorite track on the "How to Succeed" album is the overture.

Okay, now that we've had time to digest Book of Mormon's Cast CD... Jun 6

"Joseph Smith: magical aids frog. Brigham Young: frog on his cl*t face"
best line in the whole show! I LOVE every second of this show's cast album, though!
PS Is cl*t an abbreviation I can't use on this website?

I can't imagine there is a huge market for this. Schools in my area have trouble with Guys and Dolls being too racy.

Tony Predictions: No Guts No Glory May 2
2011, 10:36:30 PM
Karen Mason for Best Supporting Actress in a musical.
When the critics weren't gulping down bucketfuls of Wonderland's blood, they would take a breath for a quick word of praise for her. She is amazing, after all!
"Karen Mason, tastier than blood" ...bad taste?
yuck yuck!

I just broke down and bought the cast recording on Amazon for 50 bucks! I just love their Tony performance on the no-no sight so much, I had to hear the rest of the score. Such exciting staging in that video! THAT is how you stage a musical number!

Book of Mormon Cast Recording to be Released Digitally 5/17 Apr 26
2011, 10:38:17 PM
I am SOOO excited for this because I really want to hear Man Up! The audio recording I of course don't have because it would be illegal to use any kind of recording device in a Broadway theatre cuts off the first act half way through Sal Tlay Ka Siti.
