Newsies came to Broadway as a limited run and ended up running for over 2 years. That's a decent run.

That was also on my list for a while but if it never happens, I am fine watching "The Wall Live in Berlin".

Also, Once Upon A Time" by Donna Summer was one I always wished could be a musical when it came out.
And it was. Many, many times.... in my room as a teenager.

I have been hoping that Clark, Cooley and Milligan might do the first leg of the tour since it is heading to the West Coast from Denver. Wishful thinking, I know, but boy would that be nice.

I am so upset I didn't get to see it again on Broadway before I moved. The tour kicks off in Denver and I am on pins and needles waiting to find out who will be in the touring cast. I am glad I at least got to have a very nice chat with Victoria Clark about the show and how it just moved me before I moved.

Has Anyone Read “ Murder at the Adelphi: A rehearsal diary of the original London production of the musical ‘Sunset Boulevard’”? Apr 22
2024, 07:49:41 PM
Just started reading it about an hour ago. SO far I am enjoying it. He apologizes for any informational errors in the forward. I found 2 small ones but that may also be due to the timing of when the book was actually written and published.

Glad the West Coast will get to see John-Andrew's fantastic performance. His "Periodically" just got me every time. Especially the end duet with Usher. Just choked me up every time.

It says that he also includes anecdotes about other stars along the way so I am assuming they are not related to Sunset. He also lists Steven Spielberg and a few others.

Seeing a show when you're not feeling great Apr 21
2024, 03:20:28 PM
I don't see a reason for the thread to be deleted. You asked an honest question. I am sure a lot of people have attended performances in one or more of the "states" you mentioned.
I personally stopped having a drink before or during a show a while ago. About 4 years back I got a ticket to a hot off-Broadway show. Had the ticket for a while. The night before I was at an event and had maybe one too many. I didn't get drunk but I was feeling good. The show was

The TV version of it forthe Broadway Show is severely truncated and doesn't really get into the worst of it, fyi. The Broadway.com video linked here is a half-hour video just on her.
An amazing story and I'm glad she&#

Why do so few New World Stages shows transfer to Broadway? Apr 18

Noted. So I will just say that, since you brought them up, those theories are incorrect.

All I can say is that you are way off base regarding the "conspiracy Theory". Having no information on it and basing it on "firmly held convictions" does not make it so.

I worked at NWS for many years. I would first like to know what "Shubert conspiracy theories" there were? Also, The Shuberts did not take it over from Dodgers. Stage Entertainment ran it for 9 years in between Dodgers and the Shuberts.
