When understudies SHOULD have gone Jan 16
2025, 12:42:47 PM
This was a time when an understudy went on... and maybe there could have been another way...
There was a performance of American Idiot where Alysha Umphress was out as well as Aspen Vincent, who was a swing and did Alyssa's part in "Too Much Too Soon" if Alysha was out. So, Lorin Latarro, who was the other swing as well as associate choreographer & dance captain, had to go on in that role. It was not pretty, unfortunately. Especially the final riffs that ended the

I heard that Cabaret is taking a bit longer on autographing things as Auliʻi is out for Moana 2.
Last I saw, Gatsby had posters for $200 and Playbills for $75.

For this week, a majority of Bway shows switched their regular Tuesday evening performance to Monday so that they would be dark on Election Day. Some even move their usual Wednesday matinee to Sunday evening.

Just sharing in case anyone was looking for the show schedules this week.

Gavin Creel has passed away Oct 7

West End theatres that Gavin performed at will dim their lights.
"West End theatres to dim lights for Gavin Creel" by The Stage's Matthew Hemley - "The Society of London Theatre has confirmed to The Stage that the Adelphi, where Creel performed in Waitress, as well as the Prince of Wales, where he starred in The Book of Mormon, the Prince Edward - where he appeared in Mary Poppins - and the Gielgud, where he was part of Hair, will all dim their lights in his honour."

Dylan Smith4 said: "It is still disrespectful for them to "partially" dim the lights. When we lose a valued member of this community, we dim ALL the lights! I really hope the West End does the same thing, as he was very loved here, too!"
According to this latest Whatsonstage article:
There are currently no plans to dim the West End lights for Creel. However, Marisha Wallace and the Actor’s Church will host a candlelight vigil to commemorate award-winning stage star. The vigil will take place on Sunday 6 October at the Actor’s Church at 6.30pm, lasting an hour.
Wallace said in a statement: “London was Gavin’s second home and he did four shows in the West End. The Book of Mormon, Hair, Waitress and Mary Poppins. We will get together and share our beautiful memories of our friend. Fellow castmates, crew, friends and fans please come.”

Kad said: "Theaters will be dimming lights in honor of Creel on a date/time tbd... but not all theaters will be dimmed, which feels.. a little insulting?
"To honor his memory, the Committee of Theatre Owners will dim the lights of one theater from every Theater Owner on Broadway, including the Circle in the Square, Helen Hayes, Marquis, New Amsterdam, Samuel J. Friedman, Shubert, Stephen Sondheim, St. James, Studio 54, Todd Haimes, and Vivian Beaumont theatres at a date and time to be coordinated with the family at their request""
If there were going to pick and choose, they could have just gone with just those on 44th/45th Street or include more theaters he performed in like Hirschfeld, Horne, O'Neill.

I wasn't expecting much today. I went around noon. Was surprised that 44th was completely closed off but the tables were only on one side. 45th was chaos with the matinee lines forming. So many people bottlenecked, and then the security at Outsiders got upset when people had to move their stanchions to get by, even those in wheelchairs.
I ended up not getting anything today as I honestly was looking for one thing - The Last Ship glass (it has "f**k the Bishop" on the

It's a solid, entertaining version of the play, although another 30 minutes has been cut from the original text. The story is basically the same. The magic is fine. Strong performances by all, especially Larry Yando as Snape."
When you say 30 minutes cut from the original text? Do you mean from the original Two Part version? Or from the reduced

No, there's an actual pool of water in the Bway & West End production. I'm also assuming it's not in the touring production. Click Here To Toggle Spoiler Content It's after the scene you share above. Basically, after they make Cedric fly away, they appear in the lake on stage below. Well, Scorpius shows up in the lake and is met by Umbridge.
Later, right before Snape gets caught by the dementor, Scorpius gets back into the lake. And when the timeline is restored, he pops up and then Albus before getting caught by the parents again. x

Is October too early for Broadway Cares Windowcards? Sep 10
2024, 08:08:56 PM
Fall Buckets started October 20 last year so it might be around the same this year. However, it runs for six weeks so the first couple of weeks, not everyone is participating yet or has anything to offer.

On social and on the website, they seemed to have removed "cast" before "illness" so it might be more backstage and crew members than cast.

Last night (8/8) was Antwayn's final performance as Macavity. According to his Instagram Stories, he got another gig out of state. I'm assuming it's a film or TV gig. Happy trails to him!

I find it fascinating that they canceled both shows saturday and sunday afternoon, somehow managed to perform sunday night when there were many theatre luminaries in the house, and then started canceling shows again.
Yeah, something is a bit....off."
Some performances were canceled for put-ins as they had to make some understudy tracks work that were not originally supposed to be understudy tracks. And

Heh. The grand piano did have a little meta moment during the show that got some laughs. :)
I was also there Sunday night, and overall, I liked it. I do agree on a few points already throw out: 1) I thought the choreography was strong, and the ensemble was really good. 2) I get the majority of th

Update on the Times Square Theatre May 8

bigbelterbaby said: "Someone in the other thread posted pics of the theatre on the inside from a few years ago. With enough money anything can happen. This building is just begging to be a theatre again and has lasted this long. It’s a like a ghost on 42nd street, Broadways Grey House."
That was me. I took a hard hat tour back in 2019, when the idea was to make it into a shopping center.

In 2019, I was able to take a tour of the Times Square Theater. These are some photos. Apologies for the blurriness and bad angles on some of them.
