If that's true they probably can just re-use most of Ragtime's (none) set. A few cardboard cutouts of waves along the front edge of the stage to suggest they're out on the water. Give me the Tony for scenic design now.
I would have been in my early 20's when the tour came through from the last revival, but I didn't care back then.
Feels like a hard sell in this economy. Not taking any artistic merits into consideration, looking at the grosses for new shows like Lost Boys & Schmigadoon - they seem to be having a hard time breaking out. Big shows that are just over a year old like DBH & BVSC seem to be treading water. I think something like NtN would do better at a non-profit. What's the rumor for what's next at Lincoln Center?
Haven't seen Rocky Horror, but it didn't seem to get much better reviews than Chess. Even here people complained about things. So wondering what moved the scales for it over Chess? Maybe more fun even if flawed?
Surprised Uranowitz was nominated in the Lead category. I would have thought they might have tried to get him in supporting so he wouldn't be competing against Henry.
If I were to buy Rocky for mid-November, what are the best budget/cheap seats? Kind of surprised it is extending so long considering the reviews it got. But if it is selling well, good for Roundabout. I somehow doubt Imaginary Invalid will be a hot ticket for Fall. The play will probably be fine, but doesn't feel like a "must see" for tourists like myself.
Edit:Last year I did 5 days in DC before moving on to NYC. This year I'm
Just saw info on the website of the Venetian Resort & Casino in Las Vegas that they will be hosting the Mrs. Doubtfire tour for a week at the end of July, and the Book of Mormon tour for 2 weeks in November. They look to be the standard shows, and not any sort of reduced versions for Las Vegas.
Any prospects for this to transfer? Erivo seems to have only two concert dates so far for this coming August - one at Tanglewood & then allllllll the way across the continent a week later here in Vancouver. I paid an arm & a leg last week for a decent seat. But maybe she would have preferred a few pints of blood?
ErmengardeStopSniveling said: "Who is directing/choreographing? Odd that Sweaty would cite the male star, the book adapter, and the producer, but not the director."
He seems to suggest it will be Richard Jones in his stories today. Seems like he mostly works in London nowadays.
I think it's been pretty obvious that they work for a company with ties to Broadway productions. I think their beef with Arden seemed to start when the producers of MHE decided to work with a different company instead of the one this individual works for.
Edit: But it looks like Lost Boys is using their company - so why they are hating on it? I dunno?
I actually have enjoyed Swesty Oracles rants against Lost Boys more this past week.
