This sounds very cool - what a wonderful choice of material. Sally Mayes did a Comden & Green album a few years back that was one of my favorites. Is Pedi perfoming this again any time soon?

My suggestions: don't miss 'I am my own wife' and 'bridge and tunnel'!

ugh! in addition having one of the greatest books of any b'way show ever, '1776' is also one of the most thoroughly researched dramatic recreations of a historical event.

read any history book and you will find that franklin & jefferson had extremely active sex lives - a fact that '1776' doesn't disguise, but doesn't blow out of proportion either.

what a shame these kids won't get to see it.

Noooo! Will someone please step up and send this "5 star" abomination from whence it came before it reaches the Great White Way?

I once saw Rent on B'way (maybe 4-5 years ago now) in which the entire cast got the giggles mid-way through "La Vie" and couldn't make it to the end of the act. It happens to the best...

Although the show worked a bit better in it's off-b'way incarnation, it's still the freshest show to come to b'way in several seasons. walk - don't run. lucy t. awaits.

jrb_actor is right - agent submissions are the most sure way (often in reality the only way) to get seen by casting directors for b'way shows.

in general, open calls are a waste of time for both the people auditioning and the people casting a show. there's just no way you can properly evaluate the thousands of people who try to show up.

try auditioning for smaller stuff and invite agents to your show.

Love the St. James. And the quirky Music Box!

Hate, hate, hate the Marquis - looks, smells, and sounds like a hotel convention center.

everybody rise

don't feel like a stubborn bitch! I know how awkward it is to sit when all of the people around you are standing, but if we don't employ the S.O. sparingly it LOOSES ITS MEANING!

And if the S.O. looses its meaning, how can we properly acknowledge those rare and truely special shows and performances that deserve it?
