Thanks! I honestly googled it but did not click that first link because it looked like an ad.
Also, I'm high.

JPeterman said: "I have not seen Dear Evan Hansen yet, but I am really looking forward to it. I think that would be a great choice for your already excellent line up. In fact, I just got an email today for 25% off Dear Evan Hansen tickets through broadwaybox. "
Any chance you can post the code?

Annaleigh Ashford singing Don't rain on my parade Jun 21
2015, 11:56:45 PM
She would be perfect in that role!! I wasn't a huge fan of hers at first but after seeing her in Masters of Sex and You Can't Take it With You - I'm totally on the Annaleigh band wagon.

"LuPone, Foster, Karimloo, Richard Griffiths and others stopped the show in different ways to "scold" the audience for their misbehaviour."
Which Foster - Sutton or Hunter? I can't imagine Sutton Foster ever scolding an audience.

Calvin Berger is a fantastic little 4 person musical set in highschool. It is a retelling of Cyrano de Bergerac.

Ellen Greene in Little Shop! Jonathan Groff in the New Brain! Sutton and Joshua Henry in the Wild Party! Dec 25
2014, 12:33:21 AM
I absolutely love Sutton but I am not at all a fan of Sonya Tayeh's choreography. I assume that a show set in the Jazz age would have tap-dancing...does Sonya do that?? Most everything I've seen of hers has been very dark and strange.
Trying to decide if its worth it to add this show to an already packed trip for next July...I adored Sutton in Millie and Anything Goes but not so much in Violet. Maybe I only enjoy her playing upbeat roles?
(Not that she was bad in Violet, but

BEST and WORST shows of 2014 Dec 13
2014, 08:26:36 PM
Im surprised nobody has yet mentioned City of Conversation yet. That and Cabaret were my two faves of the year.
Least favorite was Fly By Night.
Most bizarre was Sleep No More. Still dont know what to make of that one!
Outside of nyc, the reimagining of Les Mis in Dallas was amazing. Deserves to be on Broadway.

1st The King and I Promo Video Dec 7
2014, 11:50:39 AM
Rachel York is starring in the King and I in Dallas (and going presumably on tour??). I'm surprised that this is an entirely different production than the NYC version...that kind of thing doesn't happen very often, does it?

Believe me, the audience loved it and so did I. It was endearing and hilarious. But I do agree that only someone like Idina could pull that off without getting in huge trouble and without ruining the show....I was lucky enough to see Sutton and Gavin break character once as well...thought I thought it was with Christopher Sieber not Marc Kudish (unless it happened more than once)

I saw the evening show of If/Then this past Sunday...During the birthday party scene Idina's scene partner (her assistant-the Alaina character) had a crack in her voice during the song. After a few seconds, they both lost it in a fit of giggles. After they were not able to recover, Idina said, "Its the last show of the week, guys!" Of course, she got huge applause. The lights dim on her scene and goes to another part of the stage for a short scene with Anthony Rapps character. When his scene end

Dallas Theater Center's modern-dress LES MIS (video) Jul 26
2014, 01:45:46 PM
I saw this last week and was quite skeptical going in....but from the moment it started I was on the edge of my seat. I've seen Les Mis MULTIPLE times on tour, broadway, etc....but I thought this performance was a revelation. There were things in the show that I noticed that I had never noticed before. It really brought an emotional punch to certain things that was different than the traditional performances. A+++ Highly recommend.

Fortress of Solitude Jul 17
2014, 10:14:32 PM
Unless they make some serious changes, I don't think this show will be anything special...A couple of the most important plot points seemed disjointed and really didn't have the gravitas they were trying to sell. Another important plot point was completely left out of the entire 2nd act and so left unresolved. Another minor point was so confusing I had to research the book on wikipedia when I got home to figure it out.
While race and class issues certainly permeate the play about the fr

Anneliese van der Pol starring in Texas production of MILLIE Jul 4
2014, 08:52:07 AM
Is it common for regional productions to change the costumes? I feel like every time I've seen a regional production, they've worn the same (or very similar) costumes as the Broadway version but all of Millie's outfits here are different.
Edit - the linked article above also says the choreography has changed. Never seen that either. Its my favorite show and I've seen it many times - but don't I don't think I can stomach all these changes...
