merle57 said: "Thank God for quality productions like Salesman and Ragtime. Thank God for Lincoln Center and Scott Rudin for producing quality. Those are Broadway quality shows, not off-Broadway shows being produced on the main stem where they do not belong."You're right Merle! Rudin has 2 this season from what I'm hearing and LCT has A Few Good Men and Sound of Music along with Evita, Paddington and Warriors gonna be big hits!. Looking to be a great season and more announcements coming.

malcs98 said: "EDSOSLO858 said: "Right on, and the general public is largely musical-averse (both because of lack of interest and disposable income)."And most of the general public is all cisgendered older white people (who are mostly conservative). Would'nt be surprised if a Scott Rudin-produced show takes over the Broadhurst next (and I have been boycotting his shows ever since he came back)"lol yea isn't Rudin taking the St. James for his revival of 42nd Street spring 2027?

PipingHotPiccolo said: "this seems unfair to quizking, who is admittedly obsessed with this CATS revival and clearly stated that his own mind was coming up with (plausible) theories about it potentially closing. he did not pretend to have inside informationOTHER notorious liars/delusionists chimed in with predictions made out of whole cloth (EDSO, as usual), but not fair to bash quizking for thinking out loud here since he said that was what he was doing." If this quizkingn dude is so obsesse...

I bet Tommy Tune's vision for staging this would be brilliant!

quizking101 said: "The official website has since removed any references to opening in the Fall of 2026. I’m actually a little bit shocked by this, but also I wouldn’t be surprised if there were financial issues, but also a desire to not compete against EVITA (which is all but a guaranteed blockbuster) and THE SOUND OF MUSIC (which is going to be a crowd favorite for the older LCT patronage)Not to mention Paddington and Warriors also being the new musicals that will be fighting for the lion’s...

She's really that ill and why didn't they skype her in live from her home in LA and say something to all the fans. All rude and disrespectful on her part not to show or say something about this 80th Celebration!

iluvtheatertrash said: "Maria Von Trapp wasn't "originated by a white woman", she WAS a white woman. A real living, breathing one."It was highly improbable and virtually non-existent to have Black nuns within Austrian convents during that period

Shubert Alley Cat said: "Sytwix said: "Titanique 48 hour sale code: SPLASH"I am irritated. I won’t be coming to the city for my theater vacation until July 20. This code stops working after July 18 performances."The show could be closed by the end of July!

kdogg36 said: "Voter said: "Marie being black makes 0 sense dramaturgically. But neither did any of the casting in Cabaret, I guess."Are you saying that only white people should be in this production?"If JAR is Maria then yes the rest of the cast should be all white in this production!

New York, please look after this bearThe most award-winning new musical in West End history is playing to sold-out audiences and capturing the hearts of all ages. Now, Paddington is packing his suitcase and preparing for his next adventure: Broadway.https://broadway.paddingtonthemusical.com/

Jumpin_J said: "Rumor is Damn Yankees got a theater but don't know which one. My money's on the Lunt." Heard Warriors spring '27 is taking the Lunt and Dreamgirls has the Majestic this fall

Considering it’s already June and no one’s heard a peep for a bit, I’m curious…"imagine that we’re in that moment post-Tonys when new shows are waiting for the old to post closing so they can announce.Has anyone else heard the rumor Tiffany Mann is Effie? I can’t remember if I read that here and don’t feel like reading through past posts bc yall are insufferable. In any case, Tiffany would be phenomenal and finally have a star...
