DOCTOR ZHIVAGO Reviews

Sounds like Anthony Warlow (who did it in Australia) made the right decision to pass on the Broadway production. It didn't work/sell in Australia either.


DOCTOR ZHIVAGO Previews

The show was a stinker in Australia and it sounds like it is still a stinker.


Dr. Zhivago casting announcement

I saw this in Melbourne. A dull tiresome night in the theatre. If this succeeds I'll be shocked.
Shows Coming to Australia

Frost has had the Rights to MORMAN for years but prefers to trot out mediocre revivals.
Shows Coming to Australia

OUR HOUSE is a definite.
Dr Zhivago

It was a tiresome bore in Australia. Unless there is a radical overhaul I can't see it being any better on Broadway. Book now for disappointment !


LAUREN BACALL IN

Why didn't Lauren Bacall do GYPSY ? I doubt she could get through one performance singing it let alone 8 a week.
Male Hello Dolly

That I can see Dollypop.
Next year: 40th Anniversary of THE WIZ

I'm with you best12bars and I'll fly in from Australia to see it!
FIRST WIVES CLUB

It has been announced in the Sydney newspapers that Simon Philips (PRISCILLA) is to direct the FIRST WIVES CLUB musical opening in Chicago in 2015 prior to Broadway.
Most Boring Musicals

Without a doubt not only boring but over rated - LES MISERABLES.
Ethel Merman, Live at the Plaza Hotel, 1979

Sensational. Watching this really makes you long for a type of Broadway that is long gone.
A Raisin in the Sun Previews

I asked this question on another thread and no one replied so I'll try again. RAISIN IN THE SUN is frequently revived, but there has never been a revival of the musical RAISIN. Based on the Original Broadway Cast Album it is pretty damn good ... so why no revival?
Seesaw and The Rink

I like SEESAW. I remember how The New Yorker summed up the show " Another sweetly charitable view of New York". That might give us an idea of why it hasn't had a revival.

On the subject of revivals - why have we never seen a revival of RAISIN ? It ran a few years and has one of the best cast albums ever recorded. RAISIN IN THE SUN seems revived about every 5 years but no RAISIN, why?

The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas

I too second Newintown's post about The Whorehouse Papers.
King KoItng to take the Broadway?

It will have an all new book for Broadway.


The song

I think you are all over analysing it.
Who do you think will replace Andrea Martin

Loretta Switt (Sorry Dollypop I couldn't resist it).
RIEDEL: Chenoweth as Dolly

That would be a terrible, terrible mistake.
Klea Blackhurst as Dolly

Yes, I too want to hear Dollypop's review.
