What is so bad about bootlegs? Jul 19
2014, 10:53:41 PM
The thing is, the general public doesn't really care for these bootlegs so I guess it's mostly Broadway fans who watch them, and I don't think any of those fans has refrained from watching a live musical in favor of a bootleg. Both can coexist, just like they have so far.
To be honest, I still don't understand why more musicals aren't released for actual purchase, like they did with Rent, Shrek or Sweeney Todd.

" 'Or she has a clause or something that she wouldn't promote the musical?'
I've been wondering about this myself. She's a pretty private celebrity overall, but has certainly done plenty of interviews to promote her films in the past. I think the only press she's done for Cabaret is a handful of print interviews and the NY Times Talk, which isn't televised, of course... "
I think that's quite odd because Michelle Williams is kind of a big movie star, and I haven't seen her

I don't get the Cabaret performance. From a marketing standpoint wouldn't it make a lot more sense to showcase Williams, who is argualy a much bigger draw than Cumming? Or she has a clause or something that she wouldn't promote the musical?

Into the Woods Movie Cast May 28
2014, 10:41:50 PM
I think maybe they know Into the Woods will appeal to a more mature audience (as most movie musicals do) and they thought a trailer with Maleficent would give the idea of just another children's fairy tale.

I don't think we're getting a trailer with Maleficent. I guess Cinderella will take that spot.

I think it's great that they're confident enough about their live musicals to announce this even before Peter Pan airs. Hope there'll be more to come.

I'm not familiar with Lady Day, so what's the issue here? Why is there doubt whether it should be considered a play or a musical?

Jersey Boys movie gets a rating... Apr 15
2014, 11:25:28 PM
The studio could've easily changed the language to make it PG-13, so the fact that it got an R probably shows the studio believes this rating won't hurt the film.

Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 4/13/14 Apr 14
2014, 06:44:14 PM
When you guys say Bridges is losing money every week, do you have any idea how much it's losing? I understand 30% of potential gross is quite little, but ow much would it need to be out of the red, 50%?

National Museum of Theatre Apr 14
2014, 02:19:58 PM
I think there could be a national museum dedicated to American culture in general (music, cinema, theater, etc) since culture has always been one of the biggest things America is known for. I'm quite sure such a museum in NYC would always be crowded with tourists.

re: PHOTO FLASH! Original 1975 Broadway production of Bob Fosse's CHICAGO! Apr 9
2014, 06:17:52 PM
Yeah, I know about the "live experience" thing, but 40 years after its debut very little of Chicago's original production survives and some people can rely on their memories to help count the story, but what about 50 years from now? And Chicago is one of the "big" shows, lucky enough to have had a revival and a film adaption, way better than can be said for most other musicals.
I just find it said to think that when future generations want to know more about Fosse's production of Chicago, it

I find it sad that we're unable to watch now those great productions that were put out before and now live through some pictures and the memories of the people who saw them. I realy believe art was meant to be kept for generations to come, but with musicals (and theater in general) it seems it's never going to happen.
