i enjoyed this show for many reasons and saw it multiple times (the whole show 5 times, 2nd acted about 20 times). previews were well attended but immediately after opening with those horrendous reviews i often sat in an entirely empty balcony,impressive sets and vocals but it was pretty much a disaster. why crawford was ever given creative control is beyond me. that horrible accent...quite the entrance with his coffin shooting up from the stage while sarah (mandy) screams "help me all mighty...

She's playing a Tony Award nominated role originated by Tony Award winner Jessie Mueller. That's ambitious. I totally validate the stunt casting for all the obvious reasons but seriously. Good luck to the cast having to work harder than usual for the next 10 weeks. I hope they're being compensated for this. I'm seeing her in the...

any idea who is singing from 8:10-8:20?

can anyone refresh my memory about the drama with him? i remember he was 'on vacation' then never came back....?

Signed by most of the Original Broadway Cast of Avenue Q. It is unframed. There are two tiny holes where nails were for mounting, and a piece of tape on the back that I don't want to take off for fear of ripping.

broadwayguy2, Have we met? ;0) I've read Bill's wonderful book. Hold him in high regard. I don't doubt he was asked to rehearse her secretly and not tell any one. Was it done because they planned to replace Joanna all along or was it done in secrecy so as to not cause drama among the other children and their parents? I'd like to think it was the latter, but who knows. Once Brittny was listed in the program as a second understudy I assume everyone in the company and on Joanna's side were made ...

Alexandra did go on for the role when Joanna was sick and while the producers found her performance less than stirring they went whith Kissinger. Alexandra was the annie u/s and orphan swing. Replace a valuable player or replace your less than stellar lead? I've said it before and i'll always say it. Kissinger was the best .

The producers gave Joanna many opportunities to 'fix' her performance/give them the performance they wanted. But from what I have gathered over the years the firing wasn't necessarily sitting solely on Joanna's shoulders. While it may be perceived Brittny was rehearsed 'behind Joanna's back', she was actually a listed 2nd understudy for quite some time before the firing occurred. Roger Hess, a producer of The 20th Anniversary, recently wrote a book, "No Biz Like It" and explains his side of t...

Any one have the video of Easter Bonnet from 1997? I have searched the site but they seem to not have it. thank you

I cannot thank Gothampc enough for the free acting lesson. I was looking into new class options but I've now been spared the trouble. I've quickly learned all I need to know.

Received such negative press because the girl they hired to do the role, chose and WANTED could not pull it together and give the performance they wanted from her. She was given line reads with Martin's Assistant. Given over 9 months (rehearsals and pre-Broadway tour) to give the performance they wanted from her and she still wasn't able to. Her bronchitis absence in Boston was a chance for the producers to put Kissinger (who had been rehearsed secretly) on and test her performance. She impre...

ahh. thank you!

Was curious if there was a lyric change in this song for Sara Ramirez after she won her Tony. Anyone?

If you are Asain, Chinese or Japanese you will win.
