Well she literally just posted an apology where she states what her political views actually are...

This whole thing is giving such 2016 vibes. If your form of activism is boycotting her performance and switching to Mandy, absolutely do it. But to expend this much time and effort over an Instagram comment? It really feels like we’ve lost the thread. I encourage anyone who has spent more than two minutes thinking about this story to do some real reflection. Log off the internet and ask yourself where you could be putting effort into things that truly matter. If you think this

SWEPT AWAY first preview Nov 1
2024, 12:10:55 PM
Saw Swept Away last night and thought it was beautifully sung, acted, and the direction was stunning. That being said, unfortunately, the story fell flat for me. Forty-five minutes into a one act show, the characters were still repeating the same things about themselves. Kudos to the creative team for really swinging for the fences with the show, but in the end, it didn’t quite hit the mark.

Drag The Musical Oct 8
2024, 09:10:52 AM
I was there last night as well, but I didn’t really start enjoying myself until about 20 minutes in.
While there is probably no world where anyone the creative team is looking at this… Edit. Edit. Edit.
Kill some of those darling and get this down to 90 min. The show ran almost 2 hours last night, and we should be walking out by 9:30.
I did enjoy myself, but at a TDF price.

Broadways carbon footprint Jul 25
2024, 10:21:11 AM
Don't rag on the Broadway Green Alliance. They are a vital environmental initiative working within the Broadway community to inspire, educate, and implement eco-friendly practices. Since its inception in 2008, the BGA has been dedicated to fostering sustainable practices in all areas of theater production, from reducing waste and conserving energy to promoting green design and transportation. They have successfully launched numerous projects, such as recycling programs for sets and costumes, energy-efficient lighting installations, and initiatives to reduce carbon footprints across productions. To further their mission, the BGA welcomes volunteers to contribute their time and skills, offering opportunities to get involved in everything from hands-on recycling efforts to advocacy and educational outreach. Volunteering with the BGA is a meaningful way to support environmental sustainability while becoming an integral part of the vibrant Broadway community.
For sure check out their website if you are interested in the intersectional work of theater and environmentalism.

You saw show that you enjoyed today. Why should it matter if it is specifically in of the 40 theaters in midtown.

Theatre "Influencers" May 1
2024, 12:56:03 PM
Nothing on this thread warrants deleting
I think, like a lot of things, influencers operate on a spectrum. Are they the theater lover who happens to be able to put together some engaging and informative internet content? Amazing, but unfortunately, those seem to be few and far between. The moment you start receiving complimentary tickets to events without working for a recognized publication, where is the line between being critical and being a shill? Do influencers truly he

I still would have given "Here Lies Love" a best musical nomination. But glad they were noticed for score.

@kad I hope it was the Pillowman with Googly eyes that sent Charlotte St. Martin right of over the edge.
I can’t imagine that this production wouldn’t try to qualify for Tony awards, because there is always a chance that Cole could be nominated as an actor, and depending how many plays come a long next year it could certainly snag a best play nomination.

I WISH the people who programmed the Tonys were clever enough to use Cole in the broadcast.
We had Nick Kroll and John Mulaney in a hit Broadway show, and they didn’t even ask them to present.

Disney Opening a new show at the New Amsterdam this September? Apr 11
2024, 10:50:38 AM
You need to remember that "Newsies" was becoming increasingly difficult to cast at a Broadway level, and buy closing it would continue generating substantial revenue for Disney, especially through regional and school productions. Aladdin, which is built specifically for the New Am, continues to thrive.
Bringing in over a million dollars per week and proving to be a massive hit with foreign tourists.
It's clear that Aladdin isn't going anywhere an
