Bette Midler - Mame? Aug 2

Bette Midler is way past the age range for this role. In your head it sounds good. In reality…not so much

How is Jinkx Monsoon as Audrey. May 23

I’m not paying upwards of $100 to see a drag queen in an Off-Broadway musical. This is the nadir of stunt casting. Producers cashing in on someone’s reality TV “fame” to line their pockets.

Yes, of course because you weren’t the one who was abused and had a computer monitor smashed a good your head or had a stapler hurled in your direction.
You guys are BEYOND ridiculous. You pick and choose who you decide to cancel based on what fits your needs.
YOU SUCK!

Mike Nichols Biopic! Mar 4
2024, 10:15:04 PM
Jonathan Cohen said: "BrodyFosse123 said: "I’d love to see Sarah Silverman as Elaine May as she’s proven she’s a great character actress in MAESTRO."
I think the movie is primarily about the periodwhen Nichols was makingWho's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? - Elaine May was 34 when the movie came out. Silverman is 53 now, she might have missed her window for that role."
Oh! So it doesn’t “touch lightly”

Streisand Reworking Funny Girl Ending Oct 11
2023, 01:25:04 PM
There is some backlash in film circles regarding her decision to do this. Pollack felt the scenes in question were unnecessary, but Streisand always disagreed with his decision to cut them out. Many feel she is taking advantage of the fact that he has passed on by doing this against his original artistic vision.

A Chorus Line Revival Aug 25
2023, 03:39:34 PM
Alexander Lamar said: "Never in my life do I want to see A Chorus Line without the original choreography. For me, it’s as important to the story as the text and music."
I agree. The choreography is part of the show's DNA. For me it simply is not A CHORUS LINE without Bennett's choreography.

A Chorus Line Revival Aug 25

On the subject of replacements, I seem to recall reading somewhere, it may have been in the Mandelbaum book, "A Chorus Line and the Musicals of Michael Bennett", that Bennett was not confident in the fourteen newcomers that were hired as replacements for the original cast. They were signed to something called "conversion contracts" which gave the management the option to convert the performer's contract to a run-of-the-play contract after the fifth performance or leave

In these ugly times when folks are chatting 'jews will not replace us,' we need shows like Parade.
It's a limited run. That is why it's closing.

Does anyone recall a 1971 Broadway musical titled Jul 9
2023, 06:35:00 AM
Total Deja Vu that this show is being mentioned here now! I was cleaning the house yesterday and as I tend to do I was listening to my theater playlist when all of a sudden "Deep in the Night" by Linda Hopkins starts playing - - - and I stopped dead in my tracks and stayed there and didn't move a muscle until the song was over. What a voice and what a song! I had forgotten that I had the recording in my digital music library so it was a very welcomed surprise!
