I so hope we get a recording out of this production. The voices in this production are worth preserving.

THE HEART OF ROCK AND ROLL to close on June 23
Jun 24
2024, 12:02:22 PM
I went back last week just after they announced closing and it was just such a blast and I'm sad it never caught on.
I so hope this tours because I will absolutely see it.
I caught part of a video of Huey's curtain call speech and it really tugged at my heart how much he loves this project and this cast.

Gunshots/Pyrotechnics/Loud Noises in ALADDIN & THE OUTSIDERS
Jun 24
2024, 11:43:44 AM
On Telecharge, it specifies that there's loud noises and flashing lights.
I don't remember there being any gun use, but the fire situation was loud, but it didn't pop like pyro normally does.
Not sure if any of this helps, but it's certainly better than the first reply you got.

This past weekend of understudies

^The woman is 6 months pregnant, for god sake. Cut her a break. The amount of vitriol y’all have for this woman is just simply beyond. Find a hobby or something, sheesh.
With how hectic the schedule is the week of the Tonys, it’s very common for a lot of people from the nominated shows to be out. A few years ago I went to see Ain’t Too Proud the day before the Tonys and all 3 nominated men were out.
These people are human and can only do so

Performances at the 2024 Tony Awards

^I enjoy the music from it, but it's definitely not the strongest score. I'm just surprised they'd feature it in a commerical and not have them perform. Especially since the tour is launching in the next few weeks.

I saw a commerical last week that heavily featured Back to the Future, so I'm a little surprised they aren't performing. I presume maybe they'll be one of the added performances.

BEN PLATT: LIVE AT THE PALACE Thread
May 28
2024, 02:52:12 PM
I'm going to his second to last show the night before the Tonys and I'm really looking forward to it. I've liked the songs he's released as singles from the upcoming album and I'm sure he'll do a mix of older songs as well as hopefully some Broadway/standards. I'm also interested to see who he gets as special guests along the way. I do wish I had waited to get a ticket now looking at how I'm sitting in the mid mezzanine for almost the same price as a mid to rea

Mrs Doubtfire Tour Feedback
May 16
2024, 10:14:13 AM
I saw the show several times during the Broadway run ranging from what ended up being final preview pre-Covid to reopening on Broadway to post hiatus all of which made changes in various forms. The tour has changes that were made to the show from the transfer to the UK/West End.
The opening number changed several times during the Broadway run - it went from "That's Daniel" pre-Covid to "What's Wrong With This Picture" for reopening and then more ch

THE GREAT GATSBY Broadway Previews
Apr 15
2024, 05:05:49 PM
The show has definitely gotten the Broadway upgrade. The money is literally on full display from the new sets, costumes, pyro, etc.
The show feels more like something inspired by Great Gatsby than a direct adaptation. I really enjoyed the show at Paper Mill and had a very good time with the updated version on Saturday. Is it the best written musical of the season? No. Is it breaking new ground? No. But, it’s a damn good time.
As stated by others, this s

THE HEART OF ROCK AND ROLL Previews

I saw the show on Friday and had a ball!
This show had so many things going for it for me to enjoy it - from Corey Cott’s return to Broadway and several other cast members I’ve loved in other things to Huey’s music which I grew up listening to via my dad - but what a joy!
It’s giving Wedding Singer with a dash of Kinky Boots and a sprinkle of the essence of Rock of Ages without the crudity.
Huey’s music works so well with th

THE OUTSIDERS Opening Night Critics’ Reviews

2024, 01:45:31 PM
I saw the show on Saturday evening and it was really fantastic.
I had friends who showed up a little earlier than me who found out that Brody was out, but because I really wasn’t too familiar with the cast, it didn’t make a big difference to me. They held the house for a while presumably to give Trevor some time to work through some of the beats of things since he hadn’t had a rehearsal or put in yet. They let the audience in around 7:55-ish and the show started

Has anyone done TDF for Heart of Rock and Roll and if so where were your seats?
I'm debating doing TDF for next week and was curious where seats have been.

I'm excited! I love a lot of the cast members and I'm thrilled Corey Cott is back on Broadway.
My dad used to play Huey Lewis's music on weekends when he would deep clean our house, so I have fond memories of his music growing up.
I'm excited to see this and hear what they've done with Huey's music.

Once Upon A One More Time Cast Recording
Mar 25
2024, 09:45:08 AM
I am so sad we've not gotten a cast album for this show and I hold out hope someday down the line we'll get one for the reasons Scarlet mentioned.
It was such a fun show and the arrangements and orchestrations were great.
The fact we don't have a professional recording of Aisha's 'From the Bottom of My Broken Heart" is a crime.
Thank god for unoficial recordings.

Happy 10th Anniversary, ALADDIN!

2024, 12:41:29 PM
I really love this show and I've been lucky enough to see it several times on Broadway and on the first national tour. It has just such a magic to it that continues to enchant audiences. I went to see it a few weeks ago on Broadway and the gentleman in front of me was having the time of his life and it made me just so happy.
Aladdin was one of the last shows I saw on Broadway the day before Broadway shutdown and during the shutdown, I would think of A Whole New World and the ly
