Can Americans "Do" Noel Coward?
nasty_khakis said: "I'll also say the discussion of "Brits do accents better!" is silly. I've sat through many shows in London with TERRIBLE American accents. In fact they seem to either generally default to Newsies "New Yaaawkah" or this broad Gone with the Wind genteel southern even when the characters say they're from Colorado or wherever. I saw Good People in London and the Americans behind me were astonished when I said this takes place in Boston because Imelda and others were doing Barb...
Re: OH, MARY Reviews (2026 New)
Still surprised we're a week-and-a-half into Bowen's run and there've been no firsthand reviews on this board.
Re: SCHOOL GIRLS; OR, THE AFRICAN MEAN GIRLS PLAY Previews
MidWestTheater said: "Is there any chance of this getting an extension?"They have a built-in extension through November 15, depending on sales. Right now it doesn't look like the sales warrant it.
Re: Encores 2027: You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown; Hallelujah, Baby!; Kiss of the Spider Woman
malcs98 said: "While I was originally intrigued with Hallelujah Baby, I’m now definitely more excited for Let Them Eat Cake! which for those that don’t know was the sequel to Of Thee I Sing (and kind of predicted the events of January 6th). But the thing that you forgot to mention is, it’s being done in association with Opera Philadelphia which I believe makes this the first time City Center is collaborating with another performing arts institution for their encores! season"The production wil...

Smaxie said: "Worth mentioningthat Bioh was an acclaimed actor before becoming a playwright. She wrote School Girls while she was appearing in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time at the Barrymore Theatre, which coincidentally is a few steps away from where she will now appear in her own School Girls at the Friedman and where she made her playwrighting debut with Jaja's African Hair Braiding.She's also Ghanian-American, which lends some additional authenticity. Should be fun!"Bio...
Re: SCHOOL GIRLS; OR, THE AFRICAN MEAN GIRLS PLAY Previews
Playwright Jocelyn Bioh is joining the cast for the weekend of October 9 only, stepping in for Patina Miller.
Re: The Baker’s Wife/deBose, Bakula
CoffeeBreak said: "The production was lovely, if best at the Menier.Would enjoy the album but do not need to hear DeBose singing "Meadowlark" ever again."Really, with the exception of Judy Kuhn, I don’t need to hear any of that production again. It was charming in the theater but hardly a vocal feast.
Re: Megan Hilty Replacing in Established Broadway Show?
quizking101 said: "Someone also suggested Audrey in LITTLE SHOP. While that is technically off-Broadway, it makes a hell of a lot more sense than some of the other possibilities."It’s certainly possible the venue assumed LITTLE SHOP is a Broadway show. Audrey makes a lot of sense, especially given Megan’s long history with the role (almost doing the 2004 national tour, then playing her at the Kennedy Center). My guess is that it’s Audrey or Mrs. Layton. I agree she’d make a great Mary, but I ...
Sara Chase & John Zdrojeski Tie The Knot!
DramaTeach said: "quizking101 said: "Probably the same way I found out last night that Max Clayton and Christopher Gatelli are a couple."What?! So Max Claytonis dating someone 20 years older than him and Matt Doyle is dating someone 10 years younger than him? Their breakup really threw them for a loop. Sad."The constant obsession and pearl-clutching over "age gaps" in consenting adult relationships is so creepy.

Previews start in exactly one month, and they still haven't announced the full cast yet? Kind of odd.
HEATHERS THE MUSICAL to Play Final Performance Off-Broadway in November
It was originally supposed to run 3 months. It had the largest advance in NWS history. It's going to tour. It's an extremely successful production by any metric.

Closing has been moved up to October 11.

Bess Wohl’s “Small Mouth Sounds” Broadwaybound?
The Distinctive Baritone said: "This play is very much an ensemble piece and would be an odd choice for Julia Roberts…"She's already done the big, splashy, star-revival Broadway thing. Maybe she's looking for something different this time around. It also means the focus won't be entirely on her.

Re: Sorry Betsy Wolfe, Worst Audrey Ever
quizking101 said: "AC126748 said: "In all seriousness…Nichelle Lewis?"Hot Take: I don’t find her all that appealing vocally. Shes fine but doesn’t knock my socks off. I take issue with her nomination for RAGTIME in the way I did for Joy Woods in GYPSY.I would actually pay a mint to see Stephanie Hsu as Audrey. She just played the kewpie doll ingenue in ROCKY HORROR and has killer comedic instinct"Yeah, Lewis didn't impress me much in RAGTIME either, but she seemed the most likely person who f...
Re: City Center’s 2026 Gala Production: IN THE HEIGHTS
This hardly feels like a "Gala production" cast to me. More like what you might expect from a solid regional theater.
