Re: LA Times pans the non-Equity MUSIC MAN tour -- fair critique?

DiegoKoch said: "I saw it this evening, I enjoyed it overall. The book is definitely not great but usually the direction helps make up for that, and the direction at city center was lacking. This whole production just feels like a way to remind people about why they love Lin Manuel Miranda ahead of Warriors premiering on Broadway. It’s great publicity. "No one cares what you thought, Flash. You probably didn’t even see it.

Re: Jamie Lloyd Company Popup Shop?

DiegoKoch said: "The shop is painted black and the sign out frontsays Jamie Lloyd Co x One Shubert Alley. It looks like it’s mostly Jamie Lloyd merch, I don’t see any one shubert alley type of stuff. Haven’t been inside, just going off of what I’ve seen online. One of the shirts is by Hanes, that’s what the tag said on the back. "Seek mental help.

DiegoKoch said: "What a way to fluff Jamie Lloyd’s ego. He gets to taut his own pop up store selling his show’s merch. This man is giddy and obsessed with Broadway and commercial theater. He can’t wait for the Tony’s, his favorite day."Take a seat Flash. You’re humiliating yourself. Again.

It felt like she wanted the best for these guys. Itwas rooted in reality. The woman playing it now lookslike she should be in some action movie, about to pull a gun out at any moment, where she’s the good guy trying to save the day.

DiegoKoch said: "Unfortunately this has lost the spark it had off broadway. The Broadway production looks identical to what was at playwrights horizons, so I don’t really understand why they didn’t just do a direct transfer. I know it was only the fourth preview, people were flubbing lines, the pacing is totally off, the build to the climax was non existent. The major reveal in act 2 was a dud. It’s still a strong play, but it’s mostlypolitical debate instead of the emotionality and three dim...

(And I say that without commentary re: 'right' or 'wrong'.)If I were a casting director, and these videos were an audition, I would definitely not hire an actor who did not project a contextual element in their performance."Oh look.

I don’t why you people are convinced that the show cannot run without a star. Did Jersey Boys have a star? Not really, and yet it was appealing to essentially the same demographic.

I saw the U.S. tour when it played the Tilles Center on Long Island a few years ago. To this day, it remains the most God-awful piece of trash I have ever had the displeasure of sitting through, anywhere. Not a single redeeming quality. The only reason I didn’t flee at intermission is because my partner wanted to stay and he had the car keys. I understand they have a new creative team or something but unless they have overhauled this in every way from top to bottom, I can’t imagine it will be...
