Performances start at the Hayes October 22 with opening November 16, and we still do not have a single name announced. That is a very tight window for a show that needs to sell on its cast, because it certainly is not selling on novelty -- this is the first Broadway production ever of a show that ran 42 years eight blocks away.Christopher Gattelli is directing and choreographing, and the big swing is that Matt and Luisa become Matt and Lewis -- the central couple reconceived as a gay love sto...

The New World Stages lineup has gotten thin and I can't get a straight answer on what's filling the empty houses. Those five spaces have been the closest thing Off-Broadway has to a commercial engine for twenty years -- it's where a show goes when it's too big for a 199-seater and too fragile for Broadway.What's interesting is how much the model seems to have shifted. It used to be transfers and long-tail commercial comedies. Lately it feels more like limited runs and one-offs, which is a ver...

I'm crying from iPhone videos, but also thinking about the uncomfortable part: does the material hold up, or is the reunion doing the emotional work? I'd argue Rent's book has aged badly in ways the score covers for, and reunions like this let us skip past that. Tell me I'm wrong.

https://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Ari-Emanuels-Mari-Acquires-ATG-Entertainment-20260811Does anyone know if he actually cares at all about theatre, or if this is just a commercial roll-up that'll see prices go up as they try to make their $ back? I'm curious as to what will happen to AKA / ArtHouse and other duplicated business entities too?

I went when it first opened... Has there been enough new stuff added or nah?

https://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Sierra-Boggess-Jordan-Fisher-More-Join-THE-PHANTOM-OF-THE-OPERA-Sequel-Audio-Book-20260731 guess an error here then? A reimagining of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom of the Opera by #1 New York Times bestselling author Erin A. Craig. OUR STRANGE DUET centers on Christine Daaé’s emotional journey and her agency within this sweeping, atmospheric story. It gives new depth to Christine’s experience in the Opera Populaire, her ambition, her passion, and her love...

Sierra Boggess, Jordan Fisher and others are attached to an audiobook of more Phantom material. Which is a genuinely odd format choice - audiobook, not concept album, not recording, not a workshop.Boggess coming back to this world is the part that gets me at the same time she's doing Carlotta in London. She has nothing left to prove as Christine and she's presumably doing it because she thinks there's something salvageable here. Love Never Dies has been rewritten more times than most shows ge...

Yay!

Do we know the runtime? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdO_VbOzf4IDidn't make me very excited to see it this weekend to be honest, but I know these TV appearance put togethers are often a little rough

https://www.bostonglobe.com/2026/07/09/arts/paranormal-activity/This made me curious to potentially go up to Boston. Has anyone been?

Any recommendations outside of the usual Disney fare? I've got a niece and nephew coming to town in early August...

Such a talent. Please reach out if you nee dhelp, I've lost a couple of friends this way which is too many.

Looking at https://www.broadwayworld.com/grosses/WICKEDI think the trend is clear that it's lost some of its luster and maybe demand is down post-movie along with the effects of the drop in tourism. Do you think they'll start stunt casting? Ride it out? Ride off?

Anyone see her yet?

Saw this last night and I'm obsessed with Jennifer and the score, but the book needs some work.
