Profile for DiscoCrows

I wish we got to see Jackie Hoffman do more broadway. She was very funny in Celeb.

Does anyone know who is rumored to be producing this?

Jeffery Seller?

Tomorrow is the listed opening... I guess we'll see reviews?"

Ah I don’t know why I thought it was tonight lol.

Is this getting reviews tonight?

Concur that Boroff is an excellent reporter and he hardly, if ever, misses. I have been reading him for a few years now.

I also heard about these issues when they were going down internally last year but didn't realize the scope/severity of it.

An audition notice went out for the tour today that indicates some, or all, of the musicians will be onstage.

On Stage Touring Musicians – The Who’s Tommy

Wonder what this means for the rest of the staging or scenic elements. From what I recall, the Broadway production didn't have anyone onstage right? Feels like an interesting shift.

It feels exactly like something Big League would produce

Financial viability aside, I’m assuming they’re hoping they can run it through the end of may to get SRC attendees in the door. The show is not getting booked unless that happens.

How (or if) they have the money to do that? Who knows.

Was KENREX eligible for Best Play? I feel that should have replaced something else up there.

Charlie and The Chocolate factory, with a snappy new score by Tim Minchin. Set by Derek McLane who can do some DBH/Moulin Rogue type of crazy set work to help remedy what we got in 2017.

Maybe Alex Timbers or Christopher Gatelli direct? Someone who knows all sorts of theatrical lushness and visual indulgence.

And a new book by, I don’t know, someone. Anyone.

Please.

Yeah. I am not sure it really tells us anything new except a hopeful “2027” and the name of the casting office and GM that have been signed on the show.

Negative on source material, book, set, but does praise the "hard-working cast"

"James Noone’s set (designed to stay out of the way of David Bengali’s hideous projections) is ready to pack up and hit the road. Should anyone in the touring cast fall ill, Mike Stoller’s bland score and Jennifer Rias’ choreography can be performed by most passersby within a mile of your city’s performing arts center. Tracy Christensen’s costumes can be found at Sears right now, J. Jared Janas’ wigs at the Party City next door, and even the shadiest non-union house can quickly rig up Ken Billington’s lighting designs."

That is absolutely scathing lmao

I need this to happen so badly

No word yet. I’d imagine they both will, but probably not until after awards season at this point.

I love her but the last thing that show needs is another song for that character."

I assumed this meant they replaced Be Kind, Rewind. If you’re right…. yikes. Waiting with bated breath lol.

With this all but confirmed coming to NYC, I’d hope that we get most or all of the original cast members transferring with it.

... but, if they didn’t end up going that route … who does everyone want to see in this? Whose your dream Millicent Clyde?

Reddit is saying the post-bows scene has been cut.

Lol uh oh. If you sort by NEWEST all the reviews are being consolidated as show entries. Maybe they have a new team member steering the ship tonight? Haha
