blug said: "Is the younger audience response to this similar to the positiveyounger audience response to Be More Chill?In other words, is there something here for the grownups?"I’d say it’s more like The Outsiders. Younger people are obsessed but still a whole lot to love for adults.

The obvious answer seems to be to put her behind bulletproof glass like a politician and/or have her do it high enough (ie. on the roof) where she’s outside but further removed from the masses.

What’s a better seat for Ragtime, far side of the orchestra (Row G or H) or back of the Loge (Row E) but more central?

Jordan Catalano said: "Ivo also used cameras outside the theater in “Network”. Crazy to me how Jamie is credited as such a visionary for it when he lifted it from Ivo."And excluding the music, it was very similar to what Lloyd ended up doing with Sunset IIRC. Scene started outside the theater and filmed them as they entered the theater until they ended up on stage.

malcs98 said: "Yup they’re announcing it tomorrow. I’ve heard everyone from the City Center production will be attached. It will be playing the Vivian Beaumont for a very limited run. According to people familiar with the production the first preview is expected be September 25th with an October 16th opening night and as of right now, the production is expected to run through January 4th!"I just hope it’s not forgotten next May/June when the Tonys come around. Josh Henry needs a Tony fo...

Has anyone heard any rumors about the cast? I heard it'll be a largely new cast but curious who it may be.

I love this show, and Brody Grant is excellent in it, but I do wish they'd have him clean up his diction a little. I totally get what they're going for, but just a notch or two down from that mumbled style of singing would do wonders.

Jordan Catalano said: "Someone at “Illinoise” told me they’ll be doing one song and not a medley of any kind. The show wasdeciding between two, when they told me."They really should do Chicago

This show got a raw deal on Broadway. I'm happy for them, especially the composers and Rob McClure.

Listener said: "Past Is Catching Up To Me is definitely the best in Gatsby."I have no idea why they haven't featured Past Is Catching Up To Me in one of their TV performances. I know Eva isn't in it, but it's legitimately great.

What do you think is the best song in each of the new musicals this season? I'd love to hear what you all think! I haven't seen every new show but these are mine:Suffs--The MarchThe Outsiders--Run Run Brother (or maybe Great Expectations) The Notebook--Leave The Light On (or My Days)The Great Gatsby--Past Is Catching Up To Me (or My Green Light)Days of Wine and Roses--EvanesceHere Lies Love--Here Lies LoveWater For Elephants--Go HomeBack To The Future--It WorksHarmony--Threnody (or Harmony)St...

Has anyone tried rush for this recently? Hoping to go tomorrow but not sure how early I can get there.

They’re talking about a sudden dramatic death of someone who was a part of their show’s family and some people are acting like they know better how the news s...

ardiem said: "I saw the Belasco transfer tonight and was kind of shocked at how much sound from outside bled through into the theater. I can't even count the number of times I heard Empire State of Mind blaring and overpowering the non-amplified sound from the stage."Glad it wasn't just me. I went recently and the sirens were so loud and plentiful from inside the theater, I genuinely thought there might be a disaster happening outside.

I genuinely don't understand how DTLI rated the reviews. Saying "there are problems but it's fun" is a positive review and saying "this is cheap and bland" is mixed??? Make it make sense. I also don't get what people see in Schele Williams but that's just my opinion

As of now Groff, BDJ, and Redmayne seem like locks to get nominated. Zien has a really strong change for the 4th slot. So probably just 1 slot for every other Lead Actor this season. No clue who wins though.

Click Here To Toggle Spoiler ContentIntermission song is their most standard song and will probably sell tickets, but boy is it not indicative of what the musical really is like. People will see it thinking ASL is a fun 4th wall breaking musical about a musical, instead of a man’s struggles with his inner demons, traumas, and identities. It just won’t set up their future audience well. regarding A Strange Loop…

This all seems like the same situation before the pandemic. Plays without big stars just don’t sell anymore, unless it’s Harry Potter.
