Broadway Poll: Your Five Favorite Fall 2024 Shows Jul 23
2024, 10:30:29 PM
How do I know if they are my favorites when I haven't seen them yet?
I have only purchased tickets for McNeal & Tammy Faye from that list. Maybe looking at Swept Away. Most I want to wait for previews reports.
I have room in my schedule to see 5 more shows and am pretty stumped about what I want to see. Also waiting to see what the Atlantic has for the Fall off-Bwy.

If I'm spending $450, it's not myself I plan to be slobbering all over.

This will sell well in previews to fans, but once it opens & reviews come out, they'll have trouble.

I couldn't make it down to Seattle last night, but it looks like those who are fortunate enough to see this tour are in for a heck of a show.

Is Jujamcyn Selling Its Theatres to ATG? Jul 20
2024, 02:54:26 PM
If you have never done it, the Broadway Up Close tour of the Hudson with a peak (via photos) at the abandoned apartment above the theatre is worth doing. When I did the tour in 2022, the tour guide hinted that with their good working relationship with ATG they were hopeful that they might one day be able to offer similar tours of some other, more famous, theatres. He didn't say anything more, but looking back he probably had some intel on the coming merger. A behin

Your Bucket List Jul 19
2024, 02:31:00 PM
With Bob Newhart's passing I reflected on how fortunate I was to have seen him perform live once here at one of the casinos in the Vancouver area.
Right now I can't think.of any other specific performer I haven't seen, that I would like to.
Just about half an hour ago I was in the office of somebody in another department who I speak to very infrequently, and she was playing an Adele album. I'm not really a fan, but if tickets to her shows weren't s

Kit Connor, Rachel Zegler to star in Sam Gold-directed ROMEO + JULIET Jul 18

I think scalpers probably purchased most of the cheaper seats hoping to make a profit. Closer to performance dates they'll probably be on stubhub etc.

THE QUEEN OF VERSAILLES musical will have pre-Bway tryout this summer in Boston Jul 17
2024, 09:41:58 AM
What theatres in NYC can or can't accommodate that?
I'm thinking about October for my 2025 trip to NYC (going for a week in November this year). Hope that works for seeing this.

I'd pay to see Groff re-enact that.

Where I bought in the dress circle there's only a $2 price difference. Still weird.

Article: OPERATION MINCEMEAT... plots its course to New York Jul 9
2024, 09:54:18 AM
I only gave it one listen as well. It probably plays better live.
I've been listening much more to the recording of Standing at the Sky's Edge. The songs for that all feel like classic rock songs that you somehow missed hearing before. It goes on a bit long, but really good.

Same section, row B. I’m telling you, it was one loud honking laugh guy a few rows behind me that would laugh at everything. It was obnoxiously loud but you can’t pick your seat mates. Other than him, our section wasn’t as you described."
How terrible for you that someone else enjoyed this show.

More likely Harris wasn't interested in something with a longer run and a move to Los Angeles so they had to find someone else.

Broderick is doing Babbit in Washington DC through October. I expect, that hopes are to bring that to Broadway eventually. It already had an earlier run in San Diego last year.

Imelda Staunton Hello, Dolly starts tonight! Jul 6
2024, 08:46:05 PM
Reading the comments about how soft spoken Staunton plays Dolly, and it makes me think about how Ruth Gordon maybe played the character in the original play The Matchmaker - just going off of how she played similar characters in films she made later, like how matter of factly she states kooky things in Harold & Maude.

Jim Parsons, Katie Holmes, Zoey Deutch to Star in ‘Our Town’ Revival on Broadway Jul 2
2024, 03:40:00 PM
Jim Parsons is prominently featured, but he still isn't above the title. If I was seeing this for any particular actor I'd maybe wait until closer to a performance date to buy tickets since there's no guarantee no one gets the flu etc through the Autumn.

Incoming new musicals Jul 2
2024, 09:27:37 AM
Some of the shows on that list are long dead. Fortress of Solitude played the Public in 2014. There's an album at least. But it just wasn't great. Creatives involved are either dead (composer Friedman) or moved on.
Director Daniel Aukin was most recently focused on a little show called Stereophonic; and choreographer Camille A. Brown has had her hand in a few things as well including Hell's Kitchen.

Donna Murphy in Dear World Jul 1

Truly grateful I was able to get to NY and see this. One of my favorite scores. The costumes for this Encores production were fantastic. It felt like mote than a concert.
The young man she is singing to in the video was actor Phillip Johnson Richardson, who has been doing outstanding work recently as the Tin Man in the revival of The Wiz.
