I feel like they would both be incredible in a revival of "I Do! I Do!".

Woman Of The Year Revival Anyone ???

Any song called "Shut Up, Gerald!" needs to be heard on Broadway 8 times a week.

Who Is Your One Personal MUST WIN Tony Award This Year?
May 6 2026, 11:23:41 AM
Follies for Best Musical...every year I hope they are taking it away from Two Gentlemen of Verona and making a correction.
In all seriousness, I think Cats needs to win revival. It reinvents the show as something many haters of the original want to see. That defines a successful revival to me.

Liza memoir and promotion tour
Mar 13 2026, 11:38:12 AM
Feinstein has never bothered me until the past year. I fell like Liza has always been very "obsessive/loyal" about certain people. For example, she had that chunk where Charles Aznavour was everywhere in her life, Jim Caruso was around a lot, Billy Stritch was with Liza for another chunk, then Michael Feinstein.
I had some reservations about Liza "producing" his Gershwin Country album. Something seemed very clout to me about that. I recently did a re

Will Disney bring Hercules to Broadway?
Feb 20 2026, 10:01:44 AM
rosscoe(au) said: "Disney has basically become a parody of themselves. Aladdin was a major mess of a show. What made the movie enjoyable was destroyed on stage ( of course no one was ever going to be Robin Williams ) but it came across as a school pantomime.
From what I hear and read from those that have seen it, sadly Hercules is the same."
Hot take, but I saw the Toronto tryout of Aladdin, where his three friends (Babkak, Omar, and Kassim) were narrators, and

David Henry Hwang is revising FLOWER DRUM SONG again for East West Players
Feb 20 2026, 09:48:22 AM
I highly suggest finding a copy of "Flower Drum Songs: the story of Two Musicals" by David H. Lewis. It is a fascinating and informative read about the creation of the original production, film, revival, and some productions in between.

Prince of Egypt @ LCT
Feb 17 2026, 08:35:30 AM
Some context is missing here.
Prince of Egypt is playing David Geffin Hall at Lincoln Centre, which is being rented out like the Jeremy Jordan and Laura Benanti concert of Parade, the Ragtime concert with Lea Salonga and Norm Lewis, Titanic concert, Joseph with Noah Gavin, etc.
The Man of La Mancha concert is playing the Beaumount, but is a gala for Lincoln Centre Theatre. This is same as the Camelot concert with Lin Manuel Miranda, which somewhat lead to the revival

AMERICAN CLASSIC tv show
Feb 5 2026, 01:56:18 PM
ggersten said: "I presume, despite the involvement of Bob Martin, this has no connection to "Slings and Arrows" which was about an actor who has a public meltdown (multiple) and then returns to his "family" in New Burbage to save it with a production of a classic play.
Per the website, this show is about an actor who has a public meltdown and returns home to his family theatre to save it with a production of a classic play.https://press.amazonmgmstudios.com/us/en/mgm-plus-series/american-classic/1
I do wonder if the British playwright, Richard Bean, is okay with his name being used in this show."
You know, I thought this has to be a "somewhat-inspired" version of Slings and Arrows lol

COME FROM AWAY at Papermill
Feb 5 2026, 11:24:22 AM
I didn't know it was "basically" the same production as Ogunquit...which is funny, because I thought to myself that the set looked very similar to another production photos I saw, and wondered if it was the same designer.

Have you ever seen a show before it goes to Broadway and feel…
Jan 21 2026, 09:45:46 AM
SkidRow82 said: "I saw Six and Death Becomes Her prior to their Broadway runs. Loved them both, but when I'm in NYC the vibe is always that time is limited - so I'm always going to see something new."
By the same token the rare few times that I get to the city, I always try to see the "flops" or the things that I know will never tour.

Have you ever seen a show before it goes to Broadway and feel…
Jan 21 2026, 08:55:50 AM
I was speaking to a friend about this over the holidays, and the want to revisit shows especially in the subscription world.
For example, Toronto had the North American/Try-out of &Juliet in Summer 2022. Now, we have a Canadian production, which is apart of the subscription. While, I had fun nothing changed between the 2 productions, other than cast. Doesn't mean much. Although, the pre-Broadway Aladdin in Toronto was such a different beast that while I didn't get ove

New WICKED Cast Replacements this month and next?
Jan 8 2026, 02:41:03 PM
In completely honesty, I have seen Wicked every time the tour came to my city, and the only time I was bored, and thought the show needed better than it had was when Lauren Samuels and Austen Danielle Bohmer were Elphaba and Glinda during Summer 2024. It seemed like it was one of those long, unfunny SNL sketches that needs to be over the moment it started.

Lonny Price directing new DIRTY DANCING stage musical aimed for Broadway
Jan 6 2026, 09:04:14 AM
I saw the Toronto production back in 2008. It wasn't great. It seemed to be the screenplay on stage. If remember correctly too, the band was small (as someone else pointed out), but I also remember many of the numbers were prerecorded, and there were only a couple that were sung live (including "I Had the Time of My Life". I don't believe either Johnny or baby actually sang.
It was almost a play with music
