RUMOR: Cynthia Erivo-lead Jesus Christ Superstar at Hollywood Bowl to be Broadcast on TV??? Jul 15

inception said: "Here's a serious question:
Has anyone here attended shows at both the Hollywood Bowl (seating capacity according to Google of 17.5K - so comparable to a sports arena but outside) and at St Louis's Muny (seating capacity according to Google of 11K).
How did the experiences compare? I would imagine it is much more humid in St Louis.
Ms Erivo has a concert at Chicago's Ravinia Festival later in August, and out of curiosity I

Cabaret Casting Rumor: Orville Peck & Eva Noblezada Jun 18

ACL2006 said: "Love those that come on here and say they know the next cast announcement but are acting like a child essentially saying "I'm not telling you"!"
That's exactly how they come across. It's obnoxious. It's like the only reason that they comment is to brag about the fact that they know something that they're not going to tell you.

MemorableUserName said: "The show's official page on BroadwayDirect (its official ticketing site) lists upcoming planned absences for the leads. It has specific dates in June, July, and August she'll be out, so she'll otherwise be in the show then.

"Michelle Williams will not appear in performances June 20-22, July 9–July 11, and August 29–31.""
Thank you for that info! It's much appreciated.

Thank you! I figured there would be an announcement a while ago if she was leaving but wanted to make sure. I'm taking my best friend to see the show soon, he's a big fan of Michelle so I wanted him to get to see her.

So I saw on another Broadway message board that Michelle Williams was leaving ' death becomes her' May 25th, but can't find that anywhere else. I was just curious if anyone knew if there was any truth to this?

It appears that Vicki Lewis wore the Broadway design when she played Ursula in the Music Circus production. If not, the costume is extremely similar. Dont know how to post photos here but they can be found doin

I saw the show the year it opened on Broadway and ended up seeing it two more times during its Broadway run. It was amazing to hear her voice mature over that time and by the middle to the end of her run in the show, what she did with "Soon as I Get Home", Be a Lion" and "Home" just blew me away. She rattled the roof of the Broadway theater. Her vocals on the OBC are wonderful, but

I want to see someone like SJB and McKenzie Kurtz or someone to eat this score and book down. I just feel as though my interest has drained on this one."
I agree, if I can see this in my own

Would’ve made more sense if they’d gone the MAMMA MIA route and had an Equity tour that made a stop on Broadway. But who knows? If they could get a star as Edna, I could still see it happening."
Yeah, I was hoping we would get a limited run on Broadway to celebrate the show 's 20th Anniversary, but instead we go

I second this. I looked on the site and it does mention that they are in the cast for a limited time but not how long. Was curious if anybody knew.

Which was before he began his career as Orville Peck, a persona thatis still being used in his Cabaret casting. He has never performed without a mask since starting this music career."
True. I was pointing that out for anybody who was curious of what he

I'm guessing he'll remain in his smaller mask throughout the performance. Would be cool if during the drumroll at the end, he moves to take off the mask just as the blackout occurs. Maybe you get a very brief blink-and-you-miss-it glimpse.
Since the mask is such an important part

I doubt this happened. One of their dogs died as well,so why would they kill the dog too?

I have a stupid question. Can Cynthia be nominated for part 2 as well? I figured the answer is yes but didn't know since she was nominated for the first part. I feel like the second part has a lot more dramatic moments and character stuff for Cynthia to do that would Garner her the award. IDK
