The performances are all around solid, with Anika and Richard being the standouts among the cast (Marylouise was out), and the material is funny and interesting. But it's mostly retreading talking points I'm well familiar with, and in my opinion it "all-sides"-es its issues a little too much. I wonder if MTC was the right place to put this on -- the audience the night I went was laughing and c

I don't think it needs Score or Director to win Best Musical. It would probably need either featured actor/actress as well as the techs to win. My feeling is this is going to be a split the baby year, where they award multiple productions awa

Turn "Death Becomes Her" into an event. Reopen it with Kristin and Idina. Seven shows a week. It prints money."

It's so funny how people don't understand theconcept that has been known forever: Idina does not replace. She will never replace. And Kristin turned it down ages ago and probably isn't exactly keenon being in a Broadway showfor a long time. Jennifer and

One time a woman and her daughter I presume were talking all through a show, they must have thought they were in their living room.  I asked the usher at intermission for a manager, the manager came and I told them about the situation.  I was moved to another seat.  I never said a word to the offenders, the usher did say something to them as I was leaving. 

During another show the other day, I saw a large man be given his own chair close to me to sit in, (they broug

When I saw it a couple of weeks ago, the crowd was into it as well.  As someone the other day posted, there was a sense of coolness that I have never felt in a theater before, flawed as the piece is.  The staging, special effects (I know, I could see the wires from where I was sitting as well, but so what?), the actors, especially the leads, all brought a level of hipness that is not the norm for Broadway (Cats: The Jellicle Ball also has this hipness, but in a different way).

I previously mentioned in a separate thread that the Tonys airing on YouTube (or someother streaming service) could potentially lead to less restrictions than they normally would have on a regularbroadcast network. Like possibly having all categories presented on one telecast instead of having a separate te
