Thank you. The type of post you're responding to is what makes this board so deeply unpleasant.

Cats: The Jellicle Ball to Broadway Feb 28 2026, 10:27:17 AM

The negativity and rampant b!tchiness drives me away from this board. I don't read it or post here nearly as often as I used to because there are so many Michael Riedel types who are just gleefully mean to other members and to shows.

The Rocky Horror Show Playbill Design Feb 18 2026, 12:54:28 PM
I think it would've been more effective (and appropriate) if the fishnet had been placed in the foreground, with the logo designed as a tattoo showing through a tear in the fabric.

It's certainly not a very exciting/engaging cover, IMHO, nor do I get the connection with the material.

Watch the Six Phantoms of MASQUERADE Perform Feb 14 2026, 09:44:01 AM

I know these mashups aren't the best way to judge a whole performance, but boy do none of these seem very connected to the song or material."
I can only agree in part. I think Ryan Vona and Quentin Earl Darrington sound quite promising, but I see/hear nothing memorable in Kyle Scatliffe (literally stiff as a board and just as bland) and Nik Walker, and Telly Leung and Clay Singer seem woefully miscast.

Alladin, Donica, Pinkins & More Complete ENCORES! THE WILD PARTY Cast Feb 11 2026, 07:40:22 AM

He played Max in Sunset Blvd after David Thaxton departed, and there was absolutely nothing "aw shucks" about it. He had menace, passion, and a great rumbling voice that shook the seats. He got a standing ovation at the end of "The Greatest Star of All" that rivaled what Nicole go

Masquerade inquiry for those who've gone Feb 11 2026, 07:34:49 AM
SisterGeorge said: "Any opinions on what might be the best entry time on Sunday matinees?"

But most importantly, how were his big notes in "Music of the Night", i.e., "Let your soul take you where you long to BE!" and "Help me make the music of the night..."?

Reddit post with the current schedule, note that in the comments, there's been a switch-up."
Thanks for this! I had heard that Ryan was at 7:30pm and Quentin was at 8:15pm, so glad to see the comments after the original post.

Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 2/1/26 Feb 3 2026, 02:24:21 PM
I would never have expected Tom Felton to have such a profound impact on Harry Potter and the Cursed Child ticket sales. It's truly amazing.
Still delighted for Stranger Things.

I agree. The cast is sad and not exciting. Meh"
Me too. There's nothing about any of these people that makes me think of their respective characters.
