Is Morrison really so disliked as to justify this weird turn of phrase?"
"
For the record, the SYTYCD thing is not true. He sent a DM to a dancer on the show to get her a job as a choreographer. Still unprofessional and inappropriate, but more due to showing favoritism than being flirty or harassing.

Lin-Manuel Miranda to direct film adaptation of OCTET Apr 2 2026, 09:55:52 AM
If I had infinite Hamilton and Encanto money, I would also be forcing my musical hyper-fixations on the world. He's just like me 🥲
Very much looking forward to this movie absolutely ruling my life.

The Wedding Singer, twenty years later Mar 30 2026, 08:22:45 AM
"Your goyim friends have been agog / since they left the synagogue / drunk on schnapps and in a fog" is way too good of a lyric to never be heard on a Broadway stage again.

Valerie Cherish in CHICAGO (THE COMEBACK Season 3 Opener) Mar 23 2026, 04:06:52 PM
When I heard Jack O'Brien got cast this season, I assumed he'd be playing himself, directing Valerie in a play or something. Was delighted to see him playing a full character. Hopefully he keeps popping up this season.

New York Gave These Broadway Shows Millions — And They Flopped Anyway Mar 21 2026, 11:37:45 AM
More funding to the arts is never going to be a bad thing, but the article brought up a good point: why are Lion King and Aladdin, two shows produced by the most lucrative and powerful entertainment company on the planet, getting the full $3 million credit?

If the Oracle is to be believed, there was a revival of The Goat with Steve Carell and Sarah Paulson that fell through.

Musical Roles for Jessie Buckley Mar 16 2026, 05:04:46 PM
Joyce 9 said: "We’re reserving Next to Normal film for Angelina Jolie"
Next to Normal is about two people who became parents extremely young and grapple with self-hatred for their failures (i.e. the lyric "I was a child raising a child"). The characters are, at the absolute oldest, in their very early forties, and playing younger is a lot harder on screen than on stage (if you don't believe me, ask Ben Platt). No disrespect to A

I've been saying for years that Ari Aster needs to direct this if it ever happens.

Michael R. Jackson’s TEETH in development for film adaptation Feb 26 2026, 10:16:56 AM
I discovered workshop clips of this show right after A Strange Loop came out, and have been fascinated with it ever since. I even bought the published libretto that just came out, something I rarely do with shows this new. I love how daring Jackson and Jacobs were with the adaptation. They went in a really different direction than the movie and made it their own thing, something I wish more movie-to-musical adaptations would do.

Why don’t they remount A Chorus Line at the Shubert? Feb 21 2026, 10:13:19 AM
Jay Lerner-Z said: "I don't mean this as a slight, but is Ariana DeBose a household name?
I think there is no such thing as "household name" anymore.
Just an aside."
As a society, we moved on from "Angela Bassett did the thing" far too quickly.

Why don’t they remount A Chorus Line at the Shubert? Feb 21 2026, 10:07:18 AM
Merkin2 said: "I think a 16 week limited engagement would do well. Why is A Chorus Line niche and yet Dreamgirls and Damn Yankees and Evita and Fiddler on the Roof coming in."
I think the bigger problem is how hard it is to cast. You need a cast of 20 triple threat performers. There are a million brilliant Broadway performers who can fit that bill, but when shows need a name attached to get greenlit, the pickings get slimmer. Even if someone like Ariana DeBose (one o

ATONEMENT stage adaptation by Christopher Hampton - Chichester Festival Theatre in May-June Feb 17 2026, 09:08:59 AM
Interested to see how this will work on stage. The beach scene in the movie is one of the most stunning sequences in all of film, shame to see a version of the story that doesn't have that.

The Muppet Show (2026-) Dream Broadway Guest Stars Feb 5 2026, 10:36:16 PM
I've heard it said that Muppet Christmas Carol worked because Michael Caine treated the Muppets as fellow actors, and Muppet Treasure Island worked because Tim Curry treated himself as a fellow Muppet.
I think Andre De Shields would suit the former, and Christian Borle would suit the latter.

gibsons2 said: "Bugonia would be the easiest movie to turn into a stage play. Sinners would be a greatmusical, the original movie score is phenomenal. Not sure anything else would translate as well."
I need Dave Malloy working on a Bugonia musical immediately.
