How Much Did the Recasting Affect "Death Becomes Her"? Jun 13 2026, 11:49:01 PM
Exactly that ^^^
To get repeat viewers, it’s easier to convince someone to drop money on a new group of Broadway divas in a show rather than just one replacement and the rest of the cast the same.
At the end of the day, Betsy just wasn’t exciting enough of casting to bring people BACK to the show.

I can’t remember exactly but it was the longest one act of my life. An absolute slog to get through. I would have left at intermission if I could have!

The fact that the productionwon't admit this is over is strange but not surprising."

I’d love this as well. Using today’s technology but fully recreating the original production seamlessly. No LED screens, etc. The original production was already mi

The 79th Annual Tony Awards Telecast! Jun 8 2026, 07:46:14 PM
Georgeanddot2 said: "Why is Titanique on Broadway? Does no one have any standards anymore? Has everyone eviscerated their frontal lobes with legal weed? Musical theatre has always been stupid (for the most part), but at least there used to be craft and creativity.
I thought Cats looked contemporary and thrilling. Tacky, sure, but Cats has always been tacky. It looked like true queer creativity.
The musical theatre community has always been deeply anti-intellectual ("just have fun!" ,so this full slip into braindead nonsense is not shocking. It's probably a CIA psyop to make gay people look bad.
Also, Rachel Zegler has always reminded me of someone and I realized last nightit was Ann Margret (complementary)."
Unless you have seen Titanique on Broadway, take a seat. It is an extremely entertaining evening. I’ve been multiple times and will be seeing it again. The audience roars with laughter from start to finish.

Still lecturing people on here, I see. Hope this makes you feel superior to everyone, although in reality, no one asked for your prissy little lectures….here, or elsewhere.

Any buzz on Romeo and Juliet? May 29 2026, 07:32:16 PM
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.
