Any buzz on Romeo and Juliet?

Fred Mason said: "There is no buzz because nobody cares about Romeo and Juliet and because there are no big names attached."

New screen name, Flash? Nobody cares about Romeo and Juliet? That’s pretty f*cking funny. What’s your source for that little nugget of wisdom? Here’s a hint. You speak for yourself only - not the entire populace of the world.

CHESS Sets June 21 Closing

HK AD?

Beaches reviews

iluvtheatertrash said: "1. You can disparage the show. I didn't care for it either. It's how you engage in criticism that myself - and another in this thread - took issue with. When it's just fodder for relentless jokes, it seems gleeful. And I'm never gleeful that colleagues are out of work.

2. I'm not going to bother reading the private message you sent me. You can say whatever you want to right here in public.

CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY 2026 Previews

Matt Rogers said: "I unfortunately did, for free, and found it to be truly awful. It started with an introduction to the evening and how we “wouldn’t believe these stories are true…” but all of them were rather dull. I truly couldn’t wait for it to end.

I cannot recommend it to anyone.

Also, Jackie Hoffman did a reading of Mr T’s autobiography and did a full on Black man voice that was incredibly uncomfortable.

Squeezing in two shows....

ColorTheHours048 said: "Animal Wisdom has a 9pm curtain on Fridays if you’re in wanting to squeeze in a show and not have to rush. Odds are also good you could get a literal rush ticket for it and still have time to grab food nearby beforehand."

Yeah but then she would have to sit through Animal Wisdom.

Long Island Railroad strike and Broadway

Any Long Island people on here? Will Broadway productions allow exchanges for those who cannot get into the city due to the strike? 


TITANÍQUE Reviews

Oddly, they seem to have pulled their discount code, which was a pretty decent discount, and it’s not like they are suddenly selling out. Just looking at tonight and there are tons of tickets available. And they are at TKTS for every single performance. Seems like a pretty stupid move to me. 


TWO STRANGERS (CARRY A CAKE ACROSS NEW YORK) Reviews

theatrekid3302 said: "TheatreMonkey said: "As we say in the South, bless your heart.

Obviously, you place more on sets and bombast than others do -- and that's OK. But you also have to accept that many, many others place more import on a well-written book, solid songwriting, and a cohesive whole than just ...sets. That's not the "downfall of theatre", it's personal taste (which may not be aligned with your own.)

Kristin Chenoweth We Appreciate YOU

theatrekid3302 said: "https://people.com/michael-arden-defends-broadway-flop-the-queen-of-versailles-musical-11971531


This article is interesting. It is my belief that this was in fact a great show and the only reason it closed was because Kristen Chenoweth was a victim of cancel culture. Kristen Chenoweth is one of the greatest performers to ever grace the stage and to go through all those months with people on this thread saying awful things about her it’s disgusting. It’s why theBroadway Community is so toxic. One minute they love you the next they treat you like a rat in the gutter.

I remember sitting there at Queen of Versailles and admiring the strength of this living legend to be giving such a great performance despite all the mean things people are saying about her all the criticism and she still shows up every day and performs. Truly one of the highlights of my year. No one does it like Chenoweth.

I know she has plenty of critics, but for those of us who still admire her for what she is—a living Broadway legend—maybe it’s time to show some gratitude for everything she’s given to the stage. Instead of tearing her down, why not appreciate the legacy she’s built and imagine what incredible roles she could still take on if she chose to return to Broadway? And honestly, if she decided not to, who could blame her after the way she’s been treated? For those who were so quick to be cruel, maybe an apology is long overdue.

Sure thing, Flash.


Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 5/10/26

Staying open out of spite is my new favorite expression of 2026.
