I think the only legitimately worrisome thing that you brought up was selling video recordings, which I think you're completely within your right to email MTI about.

THE WHO'S TOMMY set for 2013 Stratford Festival directed by DES MCANUFF

AEA: Either way, I'd like to see (or rather, here) more of a "The Who" sound. Look to their live albums for the kind of sound that I think would be more in line with the "contemporary" rock musical.

I imagine it will be LED heavy. Maybe something closer to a rock concert. I saw video of a production once that had the band in silhouette as the centerpiece of the production and I'd like to see it get back to it's rock roots. I really actually happened to like what he did with Superstar (he actually made me like the show!), and I hope he approaches the show with fresher eyes.

On Spring Awakening:
It was actually a huge surprise that it closed so quickly on the West End. Critics loved it but it simply never found an audience. I think there were a lot of preconceived notions about what the show was supposed to be with the music. Either way, it wound up faring pretty well come awards season.

Both the Equity and upcoming Non-Eq tour have the Spanish back in, so clearly it's working on tour!

Why isn't the standard of new musicals rising after the Book of Mormon?

Well take a look at what's coming down the pipeline. "Nerds," which is finally going to make its way to Broadway, is fantastic with a very funny score. But you do have to realize how long it takes to get a musical to Broadway. I saw Nerds in 2007, and it probably won't make it to Broadway until next Spring. Good musicals take time, that's what makes them good.

Shows that reference other shows?

I believe someone mentioned Spamalot. Here's most of what I can remember:
-When the narrator introduces the knights of the round table, he mentions "Sir Not-Appearing-in-this-Show," and someone dressed as Don Quixote (Man of La Mancha) comes out.
-"You Won't Succeed on Broadway" has a ton of references. The song starts with Sir Robin reciting the words to "People" from Funny Girl. A few lines later he sings "They won't care if it's witty or everything looks pretty," a reference to "Keep

If you're looking for serio-comedies "The Four of Us" is amazing.

What Shows Do You HATE That You've Never Seen?

Wow, uh let's see... Phantom, Love Never Dies, Mamma Mia and Cats. I know I hate the music for all of these, and I know I hate the story for all of these. Not worth my time to sit through them and hate the shows.

I'd love to see Andrea Burns as Diana in another production. She's incredible in this video but Dan and Gabe are just awful.

I'd actually love to see Russell Brand as Frank in a Broadway revival. He's got a great energy and he's wonderfully bizarre.

Woh tazber, I have nothing wrong with anyone being gay but that's a pretty quick assumption to come to. I'm straight, have a girlfriend, and not only love theater but am currently majoring in theater performance in college. But that's not really the issue at hand.
Quiche - I can tell you now that you are not alone in being scolded by your mother for your love of theater. While I personally haven't had that problem (my parents actively took me to see shows since a young age), many of my

I don't think Sam Ash is going anywhere. There's really no digital equivalent other than the Sam Ash website. Physical instruments will always be needed.

I actually find it very strange that it isn't in print anymore. The Rent book is still in print as is the Avenue Q book, and neither of them are running on Broadway (nor are the books available in the New World Stages lobby). The book has been $500 for about a year or so now, so it's crazy that the book sold out completely so quickly when a book like the Avenue Q book has been around for longer.

Why yes, yes they did.
I found this just by Googling "A Very Potter Musical Cast Album." Try that.

I have a good friend in NIGHTFALL ON MIRANGA ISLAND. He says it's a lot of fun. It's a comedy about pirates so I don't see how that can't be fun!
