RUkiddingme said: "David Patrick Kelly
As a young man he was in Warriors film.
Since then he has been in many musicals from Once to Into The Woods to Once Upon AMattress.
I hope there is a part for him in a Warriors musical."
I was thinking this, too. Would love that.

'CATS: The Jellicle Ball' at PAC reviews Jul 29
2024, 01:19:37 PM
It is worth calling, as well as checking the website. I got a seat for Saturday's matinee - and the hype is justified. Loved it, as someone who's resisted ever seeing CATS over the years since its original premier in the U.S.

ILLINOISE Reviews May 1
2024, 06:05:57 PM
I love Robbie Fairchild, and his performance in ILLINOISE was excellent. I saw it twice at Bard last summer, and have to say that as wonderful as Robbie was and is - I missed Brandt Martinez in this. He brought a warmth and spirit into the show through his performance that felt galvanizing to the community it represents that I missed in his absence.

And now, apparently - it's sold out

What is the Off Broadway show to see? Mar 27
2024, 01:28:08 PM
Was excited to see Oh, Mary!... and was disappointed. As camp as I can be, this show just wasn't as funny or sharp to me as it apparently is to so many people. Elements I could admire, but it was a soufflé that didn't rise - for me.

NY City Center Encores 2024 season: ONCE UPON A MATTRESS with Sutton Foster (adapted by Amy Sherman-Palladino), JELLY'S LAST JAM, and TITANIC Mar 4
2024, 10:01:49 AM
I saw yesterday's matinee closing performance and want to congratulate the Encores leadership team, director Robert O'Hara, choreographers Edgar Godineaux + Doremeshia, and the SPECTACULAR cast led by a very impressive Nicholas Christopher (wish I'd seen his Sweeney), Joaquina Kalaukango, Billy Porter, Leslie Uggams, with a flawless, extraordinary ensemble across the board. Brilliance everywhere you looked.

UWS10023 said: "My friend who works at City Center says that the show has tightened considerably since the invited dress which she says is usually the case due to the short rehearsal process. She said it is selling very well. She said that some people have commented on Sutton’s age and the age difference between her and Michael. That did not particularly bother me.
The five year age difference between 40-somethings Michael Urie and Sutton Foster didn't regis

APPROPRIATE Reviews Dec 19
2023, 10:50:41 AM
I am feeling like Rip Van Winkle while I look at purchasing tickets for Appropriate. Aren't these ticket prices surprisingly high for a play presented by a nonprofit theater? Seeing nothing in the orchestra for under $200, with almost all significantly more than that.

KIMBERLY AKIMBO Reviews Dec 11
2023, 12:09:24 PM
Am I missing it, or is there no way to know the schedule that Victoria Clark is performing now? I'd love to return and bring someone who hasn't see it with her performing, even though I'm sure the standbys are very good.

Glad to hear it's just technical issues that's separated Dollypop from us! Hoping they're resolvable soon.

2023-2024 Touring Season Jul 5
2023, 02:15:40 PM
Call_me_jorge said: "Wasn’t it assumed the To Kill a Mockingbird tour was going non-equity this upcoming season? At least I thought it was. I was shocked to see this press release about Richard Thomas signing on for another year."
How phenomenal that Richard Thomas has committed to a third year of touring with To Kill a Mockingbird. No doubt he helps make it an event in the places it plays, like Auburn, Huntsville, and Birmingham in Alabama, and Chattanooga and Knoxville in Tennessee, and Fayetteville in Arkansas, and other locations in Southern states where the story may play especially powerfully. Many kudos to him!

Sufjan Stevens & Justin Peck's Jul 2
2023, 10:59:31 AM
Saw this exhilarating performance last night. What a very special show it is. I had enjoyed the original album after it came out in 2005, but had not listened to it enough to become intimately familiar with it. Listening to it again for the first time in years this week, I was reminded that it is quite a beautiful and impressive, and somewhat mysterious, piece of work.
Peck's and Drury's production is itself a gorgeous achievement. The music was terrifically well-served by

SOME LIKE IT HOT On Broadway - News & Discussion Thread Nov 30
2022, 12:50:08 PM
I'm curious about which elements of SOME LIKE IT HOT leave some people surprised it's not doing bigger business in previews? It doesn't have ticket-selling stars, the property can't be ticket-selling to most current audiences (the movie is 63 years old), there's no recognizable pop music tunestack, and so on. What are the elements that would sell the show big right out of the gate?

Took 36 minutes of trying, but finally got through. Not a lot left, on my date (Dec. 10 matinee) at least.
