I was lucky to see Mariand's debut at the late Thursday matinee and it was just undeniable how much better she is at singing the score than Eden. I loved her! I found the show a mess but a loveable mess. Amber Iman is luminous and alive every second (I need to hear the bracelet song again asap). The design/aesthetic is constantly at odds with the text so that's an oof. Also stillness was sorely missed for me. Wish it hadn't been cut.

Wonder if Chu is pivoting to this because the sequel isn't moving forward.

Any chance we'll see Daniel Fish's Oklahoma! again? Feb 16
2024, 03:14:44 PM
Some of you are so precious with your tastes lol. I loved this revival and would've killed for a great proshot. For the first time Oklahoma worked for me! I actually don't want to see the original again ever. Also thought that Rebecca Naomi Jones was robbed of a Tony nomination. I'll never forget her especially in the last scene.

COLOR PURPLE movie musical currently in development Jan 5
2024, 12:11:24 PM
Surprised no one has commented on how much of the lighting is far too dark in the movie lol. Half of fantasia's face was obscured during I'm here. Seemed like a real easy fix but I've noticed in general no one really is lighting movies well anymore.

Is Days of Wine and Roses the early favorite for Best Original Score at the Tonys? Dec 27
2023, 07:21:50 PM
This is a strong complex score. There's a few really strong melodies in it too. Seems silly to say it's tuneless.

Hilty & Simard to lead DEATH BECOMES HER in Chicago spring 2024 Sep 11
2023, 04:31:51 PM
Okay but her role was also played with someone else at the most recent lab (within the last few months). Maybe she'd come back for the possible Broadway run but I wouldn't bank on it.

Brave Sir Robin2 said: "Hilty and Simard are going to be HILARIOUS, no matter what the writing is like. (Am I the only one who thought they would be playing the opposite roles? Jen seems more like a Madeline, and Hilty has more of that Goldie Hawn effervescence to me.)
It's smart to hold off on announcing Scherzinger, her Broadway debut has been rumored for years and this would be a great role for a splashy start and potential Best Supporting Actress buzz.<

I saw her Sunday -- it was a surprisingly muted performance all around... Aug 30

Didn't Barbra also change keys if she wasn't feeling it? I heard there were "matinee keys" that would be lowered lol.

Will Heathers open on Broadway? Aug 15
2023, 02:14:32 PM
I don't really ever see this coming to Broadway. It does pretty well in licensing and is almost constantly performed. There's also now a proshot. I don't think it would make sense to come to Broadway at least financially 🤷🏻♂️

Unconfirmed - A STRANGE LOOP to be filmed for theatrical release? Aug 9

Bettyboy72 said: "It’s a shame the OBC wasn’t preserved. They were spectacular. However, attendance issues made catching the entire OBC like seeing a unicorn. Especially post Tonys.
Im still wondering what happened with the pro shot of Girl From The North Country. I’d much prefer that to a film. Mare broke my heart into a million pieces. I have no interest in Olivia Colman."
I assume GFTNC was looking for a distribute for proshot bu

Manilow and Sussman's Harmony Coming To Broadway May 31
2023, 08:13:31 PM
Does Julie's supposed character in harmony have like a solo song? I was under the impression she's doing the smaller female role. Didn't Sierra do the other one?

Chastain stars in A DOLL'S HOUSE On Broadway - P/reviews & News Thread May 29
2023, 09:58:41 PM
I caught a matinee of this a few weeks ago. Enjoyed it and loved Jessica. I will say I too had laughter in the audience during Nora's exit and it was so disarming. Like it took me out of that final moment with Nora. Not sure why it was funny, I guess because a police car drove by? I gasped.

ONCE UPON A ONE MORE TIME Broadway Previews Thread May 24
2023, 01:01:24 PM
I really enjoyed Briga to be honest. It was clear her voice wasn't as strong as the heavy hitters she's up there with (Simard, Aisha, Justin, Lauren etc) but for someone who isn't known for singing I thought she sang well enough. And I enjoyed her acting personally! She brought some honesty and truth to a whacky show.
