Richard Linklater - Merrily We Roll Along

Sep 29, 2026 — 12:27:46 PM

TotallyEffed said: "Have you seen The Before Trilogy? Linklater has shot films over many years before, not just Boyhood. I'm sure this is why Merrily appealed to him. I have faith in this film. :)"I'm sure it'll be great too. More than anything, I'm just salty that I have to wait until I'm 43 to see it lol

I commented this on another thread about the Merrily movie years ago (can't find it), but I'm not sold on how filming it over 20 years will add anything to the experience, because it's already a period piece. The reason the experience of watching Boyhood is so moving is not only because you're seeing the actors age in real time, you're seeing the world around them age in real time.

Re: Duncan Sheik has died at 56

Like everyone else my age, Spring Awakening was one of my first entrypoints into loving musical theatre. Most of the other shows I first listened to at that age, I've softened on or even cringe at now. Spring Awakening just gets better and better every time I listen to it.RIP Duncan, you were a real one.

Good Guy With A Gun!

Just got done listening to the concept album, and I LOVED this show. Some of the most nuanced, original, and refreshing satire I've heard in a long time. Really catchy music, stacked cast, and funny as hell. Hoping more people take notice.

Re: New Hadestown Casting

I don't know whether the allegations against Ben Davis are true or not. What I do know is true is that I've spent the past week watching the entire Broadway community uncritically praise a man who openly dated a barely-legal woman that he had been a mentor to since she was 13 and he was 32, so I'm inclined to believe that the industry is incapable or unwilling to hold people accountable for deeply inappropriate behavior.

Re: Sweet Charity with Ariana DeBose being workshopped

jlindsey865 said: "Is it typical to workshop a well established title like Sweet Charity?"If they're doing edits to the material, which I'm pleading that they do. I saw Sweet Charity in Chicago last summer, and it's maybe one of the worst books of a musical I've ever encountered.

OhHiii said: "Ugh. I know I may be in a minority here but I find Ariana’s work (outside of WSS) to be wholly unremarkable. That’s coming from someone with 0 Oscars and 0 Tony noms, but I don’t find her to be a convincing leading lady by any stretch. Much less a ticket seller."The main problem is that her career trajectory has made no sense. She's the first true triple-threat to break into the mainstream in a long time, and since WSS, she's been in Schmigadoon, that Disney animated film no one...

Re: Iceboy! The Musical

Jul 23, 2026 — 12:08:29 AM

I saw this tonight. Was hopeful coming in, but unfortunately, the show is a bit of a mess.The tone of the show is trying to imply "this is a fun romp, don't take this too seriously", but there's so many plot threads (Vera being upstaged by Iceboy, her relationship with her boyfriend, the secondary romance with Iceboy and the maid, O'Neill being pulled out of his writer's block, a butler who is Frankenstein for most of the show, to name a few), that you can't help but take in the show critical...

Paranormal Activity Ready to Spook Broadway

In Chicago, I saw it at the very front and center of the mezzanine, and I thought the view was perfect. You got a good view of the entire two-level set.

RIP Harold Wheeler

I stand by the Overture to The Full Monty being one of the best ever on Broadway, and that's mainly because of Harold Wheeler's horn arrangements.

CHESS Sets June 21 Closing

jpbran said: "Long term sales for Lea M’s replacement must have lookedbleak.Reallywish they could’ve filmed this… The last filmed version has such terrible audio which is a shame."I never listened to the show all the way through until this current version, and the main reason was that the mixing on every recording was awful. I couldn't make out the lyrics on any of them.

Reading for new musical in... Utah?

May 11, 2026 — 5:41:02 PM

When I was at Illinois State University, there was also a reading of a new musical. it was called Brooklyn's Bridge, about the building of the Brooklyn Bridge. The librettist, Ray Roderick (who directed and re-wrote the book for the touring production of Chitty-Chitty Bang Bang) was an alum, and he workshopped it with students over the course of a semester.

SUFFS Proshot Airing May 8 on PBS

I thought this was great. Shaina Taub's sound as a composer really scratches an itch with me, I'm always excited to hear anything she works on.
