MarkCohen said: "Another Canadian here. That article says the awards themselves at 8pm EST will be available on Paramount+ Canada. I subscribed but am not seeing a 'Live' option, just CBS News. Any Canadians having more luck?"
Looks like the 8pm show will be on CTV :)

Phantom Closing? Jan 29
2023, 12:15:22 AM
One last night at the Majestic for me! I was happy to go and see that there was quite the list of understudies on. Paul Adam Schaeffer was on for the Phantom and did a lovely job. Bronson Norris Murphy was on for Raoul - charming as always. A good trio to end on for me.

The new post on their instagram page seems to suggest that the date of February 18th is firm. They also suggest that the "Phantom won't be far away"; which unfortunately lends credence to the cheap CamMac production seeing the light of day once this closes.

Any chance they film this at the Majestic or will we lose The Brilliant Original forever?

& JULIET teases Broadway transfer announcement? Jul 6
2022, 10:09:26 AM
Betsy had the audience eating out of her hand from the moment she stepped on stage and throughout the show, and then blew the roof off the place with As Long as You Love Me. Sands plays a somewhat dimwitted Shakespeare to a T and is really enjoyable to watch. Yeah they look a bit young (especially when they keep going on about wanting to be young again), but they play it so well that it really doesn't matter.

I think we all understand that, but this being a Broadway message board it seems like a reasonable question to ponder

Broadway to Close? Mar 11
2020, 06:50:18 PM
If the worst does happen and theatres are forced to close, now would be as good a time as any to record some shows with the empty houses. It could help make some sort of return on investment in the long run.
Wishful thinking, but it could be nice.

Plus sides: The cast do look like that they're having fun and the dancing is very beautiful. I really loved the dancing while some of it didn't translate well on screen. An

It wasn't as terrible as it's being made out to be. If you know the show and can get on board with the humanoid cats, then you're in for a good (but weird time). I really enjoyed the Skimbleshanks bit!
Or maybe I had just set my bar so low, but it surpassed it.

THE LIGHTNING THIEF Officially Announces Broadway Run Aug 12
2019, 12:10:02 PM
InTheBathroom1 said: "I think the fact that it’s already been on tour and made a lot of money that way. So really it’s just a reinvestment. Plus, they don’t have to pay for sets or development or any of that. And if the Longacre was gonna sit empty anyway, I think it’s not the stupidest idea. Also, another option for families that’s not Disney (and Disney prices) is always welcome. "
Does anyone know if Disney is involved with this at al

This trailer played before the Lion King today and being in a room with so many people watching it together is an experience.
There were laughs and gasps but a general sense of shocked confusion. I can't wait to watch it unfold!

I cannot wait for them to remove that blue monstrosity from the exterior of the theatre.

It’s skyrocketed to my second favorite of the year behind Hadestown and just ahead of The Prom. Meeting Glenn was the icing on the cake."
Did the image of Glenn Close being in the cast of Ain't Too Proud flash through anyone else's head?

Should SIX transfer? Dec 19
2018, 06:05:31 PM
I had a chance to listen to the cast recording and the music is very catchy! Definitely a very pop-y sound. The songs themselves are also filled with some good with if you've heard the stories of the "six" before.
I don't know if this would do well in a Broadway space as it might get drowned out, but somewhere off-Broadway could be a lot of fun!

PattyO'Furniture, I think that was one of the most eloquently said things in a long time here and it speaks perfectly to what those of us on the sidelines enjoy about this site.
It's been an interesting time following along with everything, and I do hope it all works out in the end so that the longtime posters can come back and so that we as a BWW community don't lose any support that we have left.
