Bad Cinderella needs to go to the Winter Garden
Jan 17

awwwww this is cute. how old are you? 19?
Did you see Cinderella on the west end? it was an absolute disaster and ALW pulled the plug, hoping that he can "fix" it. He closed it because it was awful, and producers were not interested in financing it. Easier to get producers to invest in HIM, rather than this specific bad property he was hoping he could fix.
BTTF is selling like hotcakes on the west end, and will

FAIRYCAKES Off-Broadway - Previews

2021, 11:03:26 PM
this was BAD.
it felt like a first draft.
He cant direct, and the writing is CHEESE. but a stinky cheese. not a smart sophisticated cheese.
thoroughly disappointed.
The cast is wonderful and doing their best with bad material on a bad set on a bad stage

When will actors begin stage dooring again/backstage tours
Apr 3
2020, 11:25:48 PM
"stage dooring" is a thing of the past! RIP.
so is the "handshake" as a greeting.
Backstage tours will be VIP access only. you will need to know someone in the show personally. Or get prior approval from producers or something.

@modernmillie it seems like you WANT the show to fail.
Are you one of the actors from the NYMF production who was replaced?
<<edited by BWW staff>>
Anyways I saw it at NYMF and it was charming and adorable. Not a kids show, any more than “lightening thief” was a kids show. It’s Family friendly but I had a great time with friends.

Dragon Spring Phoenix Rising at The Shed

2019, 12:25:36 PM
OY IT WAS SO TERRIBLE.
That being said, I disagree about inflated ticket prices... at least for THIS show. I got a pair for $25 each from the box office and the seats were great. they have LOTS of great seats at great price points.
but what a mess of a show.
they hired kung fu Artists, not actors or singers. and there was VERY LITTLE king fu.
the singing was awful and could be cut. &nbs

I found myself incredibly disappointed wednesday night.
the BEST part is the new material added.... SPOILER ALERT?
the production team interviews staff members at New York City Center, and added their stories into the show! Security, Ushers, Ticket Takers, Box Office people.... and their CHILDREN who also work at NYCC.
it was a BEAUTIFUL HEARTWARMING addition to the show. It was the only part of the show that felt heartfelt.

Lottery Ticket Prices These Days
May 15
2019, 10:19:03 AM
$30 and $40 IS affordable Seats. Compared to the $149 price tag..... when the lotto was $20 bucks, the FULL PRICES were only $100.... why producers should be still charging 20 year old prices is beyond me.
I miss the day where you could go to a THEMEPARK for $80 bucks
I miss the day where you could buy a SANDWICH for under $10.
I miss the day where you could buy a BEER for under $10.
Prices rise
You are entitled to nothing. Stop being so cheap. <

to each his own. I appreciate that you provided your own feedback and your own experience, but no need to knock down others opinions in the first place.
I wouldn't consider myself a zealous theatre fan, and frankly tend to hate ALOT, if not most, of what I see. I think this show brilliantly portrayed the current state of the world, in a Shakespearean period manner. and THAT is what makes good theatre for me. reflecting modern opinions in an artisti

When a show closes, what does the ensemble do?
Mar 12
2019, 01:32:12 AM
I dont understand why we think the ensemble would do anything different than the principals.
not all principals are idina Menzel or Kristin chenowith....
MANY actors with principal roles struggle with finding work when a show closes....
SOME ensemble members will pop right into the ensemble of another show!
some principal actors never work again....

this might be the best new play of the 21st century.
ALOT of the dialogue went over my head. but the POINT of the show is brilliant.
Its all about massacres, coups, and the PEOPLE who are left behind to clean up the mess.
its about what happens with terrible leaders with no unchecked power.
its about the power dynamic between men and women
its about what we do with our feelings when the world is falling apart and everyone is dead and

Dear Evan Hansen CLOSING to make room for an upcoming production??

shows close and move all the time! maybe there WAS some clause in their contract. DEH can easily move to another venue to make way for something else.
