it doesn't have a storyline, but Runaways fits your other criteria.

MrsSallyAdams said: "I saw a high school production of Anything Goes that changed the two gambling Chinese missionaries into a pair of gambling nuns. Not ideal but it worked. Have those characters remained in subsequent licensed adaptations of the show? Were they in the Sutton Foster revival?"they were in the sutton foster revival, and they were also in the arena stage production in DC this past winter.

I miss Broadway Backstory so much, I hope it comes back. in terms of theatre history podcasts, it's relatively new but I've really been enjoying My Little Tonys. it doesn't have the access of something like Broadway Backstory but it's well-produced and the hosts do their research.

from the NYT:"There are limits to artistic freedom, though, and Mr. Fish exceeded them toward the end of his Bard production, when his treatment of a scene of fatal violence took Mr. Chapin by surprise. For St. Ann’s, he has instructed Mr. Fish to find a different way." Click Here To Toggle Spoiler Contentdid any one see the bard production? how was Jud's murder staged?

"I have LincTix for earlier in October. Does anyone know if they'll allow me to swap them for available LincTix later in Laura Benanti's run?"I just did this! you have to call Telecharge and they'll cancel your linctix, then you can repurchase them yourself online. I was excited to see Lauren Ambrose but there's no way I'm missing Laura in this.

I was at Hello Dolly on Sunday. our seats were in the partially obstructed side orchestra (row M), still a great view.

I saw the show last night and there were understudies on for Asaka, Papa Ge, and Daniel. something must be going around over there.

saw it last night. as a longtime Carousel fan I thought they botched it, for many of the reasons already mentioned in this thread. the dancing was the only high point.I was also thinking about how R&H kind of wrote themselves into a corner with the character of Louise-- it seems almost impossible to cast someone who's a strong enough dancer who can also nail the scenes with Billy & Julie, which should be the emotional climax of Act 2. all the Louises I've seen have been beautiful dancers but ...

I was having that problem yesterday with Once on this Island tickets, I was able to get through after about 45 minutes of refreshing intermittently. it's a pain, but it seems like the only workaround, especially if they're denying it's an issue.

I'm also selling a ticket for Monday for face value ($25), PM me if you're interested!

"EMMIE IS FIFTEEN YEARS OLD."she could pass as much younger onstage the same way Anika Noni Rose did, she has a youthful voice and physicality (and would probably sell tickets). it's not like there's no precedent for casting the role in that age range. however, I agree it would be exciting to see an unknown teen play that part.

I'd love to see Janelle Monáe as Emmie. I remember reading she stopped doing musical theatre because she was disappointed with the limited variety of roles available to black women... wonder if a juicy & complex part like that might lure her back.

so glad these are all in one place!!!"You Monster!" (Beauty and the Beast): https://www.facebook.com/braiden/posts/10212582669582290"I'd be so happy I could.... MELT!" (Wicked): https://www.facebook.com/violetwildebeast/posts/10209535869816001

(spoilers? maybe?) I was there this afternoon. the early negative reports on here had me worried, but I really enjoyed myself, and so did the two people I went with. I can see why it's polarizing-- not everything works, and it's intentionally dramatically inert, but there's a lot to chew on here. I don't know if it'll win her any new fans, though. none of the connections she makes are explicit, and there's no traditional narrative or character development, but the whole thing is a deconstruct...

edit: sold!

"For example, why did Maureen end up staying? Her two sisters apparently escaped. What kept Maureen back? To my knowledge, this is never explored."i had some trouble with the accents as well, but i believe they mentioned that maureen's release from the asylum was conditional on returning home to the care of her mother. so either she legally can't leave, or inertia & fear of relapse took over after that.

Even though the original cast is leaving soon they could still come back to film it. That's what happened with Into the Woods, South Pacific, etc

"I actually heard a story of my director saying that an actor was being rude during an Ethel Merman show, and she ended up dragging him out of the audience. I don't know if it's 100% true (or if it was Ethel Merman), but Ethel Merman and a lot of other people would do this if it happened in their times."Elaine Stritch told that story in her show, it was a drunk man who was heckling her (Ethel) during Call Me Madam. in Elaine's version she hauled him out of his seat herself, but other people s...

has enough time passed for people to spill what happened with barrett weed in heathers & alexandra socha in fun home? i saw both of them in those roles before they left and am super curious.

I don't know if I've ever cried more at any performance than I did last night. everyone around me was a wreck too. you could tell how moved the cast was to be together again performing that material. beautiful, magical, overwhelming. I feel very very lucky to have been there.on another note, I wonder if Matthew Morrison experienced any PTSD from returning to a time when his whole career was still ahead of him and the indignities of Glee were just a twinkle in Ryan Murphy's eye.
