Re: Downstate Premiering on Broadway this Fall?
Socials are popping up
Who will lead the "Oh, Mary!" Tour?
Does that mean Cole isn't doing LA as the poster above speculated? It would seem like a waste to have Alaska only do 6 tour stops when the majority of that leg is LA.
Rumor: CATS: THE JELLICLE BALL to close in August?
I'm said I won't get to see this. I just looked yesterday for tickets on a September Wednesday and decided, based on how expensive they were, to just wait and try TKTS to get a better seat for (likely) a better price than the $115 for the last couple of rows.
DOLLY: A TRUE ORIGINAL MUSICAL begins on Broadway in December 2026
My assumption is they'll be frozen earlier than the 19th but just wanted to have opening night be Dolly's birthday. This way they're open for Christmas/New Year and get the press blitz later in January

What I was pointing out is that the opinions on this board often conflict with box office results and professional critics’ reviews. That inconsistency is why it would be unwise to treat this place as a real time focus group for theatre professionals. The irony is that this suggestion came from someone whose reactions are frequently out of step with br...

If this doesn't start selling tickets this will hurt licensing."This will absolutely be a hit when it's licensed because it's a parody of a movie every person in existence has seen at least once and features music by an artist every person in existence has at least heard of. On top of that, they get to marke...
Starstruck at Bucks County Playhouse
Because no choreographer has ever successfully transitioned to directing? Do y'all even like theatre around here, or do you just need somewhere to go to complain and feel some modicum of power in your sad lives?
GALILEO to Open at the Shubert Theatre, Fall 2026
Why is everyone here suddenly so concerned with producers "wasting money" or "throwing money away" on new works? Broadway is a losing business, for the most part. Producers know this. Why do you all care? I swear, every time a new show is announced, every one on this board acts like they manage these people's financial portfolios.

Just in Time - Matt Morrison?
I have to think Jeremy Jordan is the better (and smarter) choice. Morrison's career has been in an absolute tail spin for the last 5+ years, between those cringeworthy viral videos of his time on The Greatest Dancer to his unhinged horny Grinch in the live NBC musical in 2020 to getting fired from So You Think You Can Dance and doing a Christmas movie for the horribly-rated and anti-gay Candace Cameron Bure network.He might be more a liability than a draw.

I just saw Matt Rogers's Christmas show this past week, and I hope the producers of this are already in touch with his team.
Elaine Hendrix has Broadway plans “in the works”
It could be a play; I saw her in Steel Magnolias a few years ago.

Jennifer Lopez to Star in KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN Film
Saw this on Friday night (Philly suburb, 7 of us in the theatre) and really loved it. I've never seen the musical, only the play, but I was very taken with Conden's concept and the juxtaposition of the bleak prison scenes with the vibrant fantasy sequences. (Big "Steppin' to the Bad Side" vibes from the morphine dream, so he definitely has a style.)The final act is a bit tedious, but making this movie with this message right now feels so very right, and I left with only positive feelings desp...

If so, you’re doing a great job.All the jokes are based on current affairs or specific currently trending people, events or situations, which automatically means this show is dated as soon as the current production ends.
