Oh, calm down lmao I took it off because I didn’t want her to whine. I was not reactive or defensive, but it’s nice you think you were there.And yes, if what someone isn’t obstructing someone’s view, what someone is wearing shouldn’t be talked about and yes, should shut up. ❤️Ah. Fair enough. Sorry - made an assumption based on tone and the way your story was framed. I just think people sometimes treat low-stakes, not objectively unreasonable requests as inherently annoying, inappropriate, or...

It was not impairing her view whatsoever."I totally agree that if something isn’t impeding your view, why say anything… but honestly this story and your delivery makes you sound kind of reactive and defensive. She was just asking. Nothing wrong with that. And if you don’t like it, just decline and carry o...

If someone is blocking your view with a hat/cap, we should be able to at least ask them to remove it. If we’ve lost the ability to kindly ask someone to do us a favor that will make a difference in our viewing experience - especially when, of course, they have the freedom to decline - then we have a huge, huge problem. It’s not “crazy” at all to ask someone something like that. And if you’re told that it’s because of a medical condition, that doesn’t need to be embarrassing… you just didn’t k...

I was there as well. It was far more fleshed out and staged than I expected with the rehearsal time. I thought the costuming was very smart and the prison background looked great. My only disappointment with the staging/movement (though I can understand why this might have been hard with the time constraints) is that the muleteers barely touched Aldonza. There was a lot of physical lust and testosterone missing from “it’s all the same” with the muleteers mostly just sitting around her while s...

Not sure if this is a loop hole or what, but hey, it's there!https://www.telecharge.com/Man-Of-La-Mancha-Tickets"^ cannot thank you enough for finding this!! It worked! Got tickets!!

Article says show only tickets are on sale but I don't see an option to buy show only on the website. Anyone have any info?

When I was going through an Audra interview deep dive she talked about the Puffy revival of Raisin (a crazy thing that actually happened) a lot and how at first it was strange to have audiences with "poor theatre etiquette" but in the end she really enjoyed it because she realized how many people in the audiences were experiencing something for the first time.It really resonated with me at the time and has only resonated more the longer I work in the industry. Yes, a pop star is bound to brin...

CoffeeBreak said: "https://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Kerry-Butler-Alex-Newell-Andrew-Durand-More-Join-BAT-BOY-at-New-York-City-Center-20250730Pretty good casting. Trench, Sieber, Durand and Newell will be great in these roles. No Shelly yet. Concerned about Butler. We get a thin nasal sung Meredith? The weak link for us - although great as original Shelly. Meredith? no."Oh wow, really? I'm not concerned at all. So excited about this casting in particular. I agree her voice can be nasal, b...

The Distinctive Baritone said: "Just jumping on here to ask if anyone else is bothered by the fact that the Beast’s makeup basically consists of a nose and horns and little else…Is he getting the Gerard Butler POTO treatment? Like, “What if instead of scary and gross we make him HOT?”"Definitely not giving, "...she transformed him into a hideous beast." More like a sexy man with horns.

scripps said: "Ali Louis Bourzguias Bat Boy, please please please.I still have to frame my oversized Bat Boy poster given out on opening night in .... 2001."ABSOLUTELY YES. My dream casting for this.

I am not at all understanding this talk of Patti's actions being "ignored," or her being "absolved." when this is so obviously not true. It is everywhere. Countless people have condemned her words. In fact - you are saying it yourselves: her reputation is affected, this will "color how she is perceived," some people will "second guess" hiring her, she is now carrying "baggage," she is now, for many, "a liability" etc etc etc. Listen to yourselves! There are *clearly* consequences. People who ...

There are people who don’t have the attitude of “oh, silly Patti!” but who are aware of the fact that a lot of signatures on open letters like this particular one are hollow and get hollow, fear-based responses if they get responses at all. Patti LuPone’s actions have been decried by those who will decry them and those who want to bar her from things will. Also, to be clear, I don’t think that people who sign the letter are doing anything “wrong” or “ill-intended.” Perhaps I’ll be proven wron...
