BRIGADOON in Pasadena
May 22 2026, 02:43:33 AM
I’m really looking forward to seeing this on Saturday evening, May 30th.
it took me three attempts to get through the movie, but ultimately I found it enjoyable.
The rave L.A. Times review of the Pasadena Playhouse production has me intrigued!

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang remake in development
May 15 2026, 01:03:11 AM
Ah, once again I stumble on a years-old thread and read through it just long enough to realize what I’ve done.
i saw the original movie in a Drive-In on Cape Cod, with my family, when I was 10 years old. I was the oldest of 3 kids and I remember my younger brother loving it. I sort of ended up loathing it as my brother wore the album out.
i saw the original West End production with Michael Ball in 2002. Had I been in an aisle seat, I probably would’ve left after the

Meryl Streep considering return to Broadway with Martin Short

Skip 23 wrote, “I DO, I DO ... obviously...”
When I listen to this cast album…every once in a while…it makes me crazily nostalgic. I remember my parents, and a lot of their friends, etc, had either the album with Mary Martin and Robert Preston…or had the song, “My Cup Runneth Over” (was all over the radio) as it was a hit by, I think, Ed Ames.
Looking back, it was neighbors having beers or gin and

Why no Nick Jonas L5Y album... JRB answers...
Apr 15 2026, 01:46:29 AM
Even though many of us weren’t thrilled with Nick Jonas in “The Last Five Years,” a digital-only release of a cast album featuring Jonas would probably have more people exposed to this show and score than all previous recordings combined.
Maybe Jonas would’ve worked better in an audio-only release. Also, we’d have Adrienne Warren’s performance to enjoy.

Forgive me if I've missed postings on this. A "search" didn't reveal any.
Has anyone here seen it yet and what did you think of it?

Liza memoir and promotion tour
Mar 17 2026, 11:18:54 PM
When I looked earlier today, there were VERY FEW tickets available for tonight. I can’t access it now, but I think there were fewer than 20 seats available. I guess we’ll know more later.

HIGH SPIRITS at Encores!

After reading the posts here, I was curious… When I tried to find the OBC recording, it wasn’t available to stream on Amazon, Apple, Tidal, Qobuz or Spotify. It is free to listen to on YouTube, though…

Catherine O'Hara has passed away at 71

For me, everything she was in just made it that much better. You can't say that about a lot of people.
Now it's time to binge Schitt's Creek all over again...

New Merrily Pro-Shot reviews
Dec 5 2025, 01:45:05 PM
Maybe the overture and curtain calls could be included in a physical release; DVD and Blu-ray. It would be a very easy thing to do…if they were shot initially.
Give us the option to watch it both ways on disc. Again, it would be so easy to do.

The BWW Tech Support Thread

I came on tonight at about 10:30 PST. When I went to look at comments regarding today’s elections, I was surprised to see that I’d 👍 a number of them. I removed the ones that weren’t placed there by me.

This was released digitally today. It sounds OK, but it’s not complete; just more of a highlights album.

The Great Diane Keaton has passed away..
Oct 11 2025, 04:36:15 PM
She's just someone I always felt would be here...very sad.
When I first moved to LA, I saw her coming out of a store on Melrose Avenue, laden down with a lot of bags. I offered to help and she gave ma a very Annie Hall-like "Oh, no...I'm fine. Thanks." This was around Christmas, 1984.
If you haven't seen MARVIN'S ROOM, she gives a beautiful perfomance. There's a moment in the film, with her, that just breaks me every time I see it.

For those that saw the production in London, is it special enough to play Broadway without the balcony gimmick?

Complete MY FAIR LADY recording
Sep 28 2025, 05:50:24 PM
There was a proposed remake of MY FAIR LADY some years ago. It was set to star Carey Mulligan as Eliza Doolittle. For the role of Professor Henry Higgins, actors Colin Firth and Hugh Grant were both considered.
The project, which ultimately did not go forward, included other key figures: - Emma Thompson penned the screenplay for the new adaptation.
- Producers Cameron Mackintosh and Duncan Kenworthy were attac

Complete MY FAIR LADY recording
Sep 27 2025, 12:25:26 AM
The complete recording of MY FAIR LADY has been released today, digitally, on all platforms.
Like his earlier complete recordings of OKLAHOMA! and CAROUSEL, John Wilson and the London Sinfonia bring us a complete recording of Lerner and Loewe’s MY FAIR LADY. The Julie Andrews/Rex Harrison Broadway and London recordings are go-to choices, but this new recording is definitive as a complete document of the score.
I’m listening now and it’s pretty remarkable!
