ViniFromBrazil said: "I know it’s not fair but this Book of Mormon number was better than all the new musicals"I didn’t think so! I thought they should have chosen a different song

Play Esq. said: "Sutton Ross said: "Play Esq. said: "Soo…Schmigadoon for the least effective performance?"It's sobasic and vanilla,how embarrassing it might win Best Musical. AI slop at its finest."I was late to the game, but finally saw Titanique today. Would much rather that win or Two Strangers, over this."I thought Schmigadoon’s performance was spectacular. I thought them starting outside was so clever and I was so caught off guard when they started performing. I thought it captured the w...

Can’t believe I am saying this. I think Joshua Colley is the best Orpheus I have ever seen. I didn’t think it was possible to be better than Jack Wolfe but he is simply incredible. Love that puppy dog vibe and his voice is just gorgeous. Also like Gary Dourdan a lot very pleasantly surprised with him.

Has anyone ever won the Hamilton lottery? I've been entering for weeks and haven't won at all.

And Mantello, surely, deserves the credit for this sensation.Actresslooks like it will be Manville, though if it were up to me, Id probably give it to Coon.Supporting Actresswill be Metcalf, and she was great, but I can see a swell for June Squibb in the right circumstance. Id personally give it to Aidem...

gibsons2 said: "theatrekid3302 said: "To say this has the best book is utterly ridiculous the storyline is ridiculously simple and lacks any real plot.This would have been a good Lifetime or Hallmark movie."I think it's difficult to write a musical with perfectlydeveloped characters. Most musicals, even very good ones, lack in that department. But minimizing Two Strangers to a surface level, primitive Hallmark movie is ridiculous and short minded. Both characters are deeply flawed, one with s...

ErmengardeStopSniveling said: "I was charmed by most of act one but by the end of the act it loses steam and act 2 is basically a mess.My main problem with the TV show remains: the songs aren’t good enough. The jokes lean obvious, and the melodies are too close to the originals to be interesting — it just makes you wish you were hearing the actual songs.There are too many side plots that Cinco Paul has tried to shoehorn into a 2.5 hour musical. This feels desperate to be 95 minutes at most. T...

I am curious how the latest Broadway Groses will play into who will win Best Musical. Schmigadoon is obviously the front runner but looking at the latest Broadway grosses (week ending May 3), I think The Lost Boys has a strong case to win Best Musical because it’s clearly leading the nominees commercially. It brought in $1,003,881 for the week, making it the only Best Musical nominee over the $1 million mark, compared to Titaníque at $730,431, Schmigadoon! at $646,129, and Two Strangers at $5...

I think Tony voters would want to give this show that honor by having this production win Best Revival.I am a Tony voter and absolutely do not think like that, nor is it some sort of groupthink process."Thank you, I figured that. That poster has trashed shows they haven't even seen, so his opinion is completely moot."Agreed—if you haven’t seen the show, your opinion on whether...

Are there any plans of Mary Poppins ever returning to the US, either on Broadway or another U.S. Tour. It had a recent revival in London and the U.K. Tour is now closing. Read this on Tours to You and was wondering if this was true. I have been praying for this show to return to the U.S. for years. Pre-Tour NotesIn spring 2023, the John Gore Organization, which oversees Broadway Across America, sent a survey to patrons among the various markets they manage. This survey was to gauge interest i...

I am really hoping that Sophie Evans will cross the pond and replace Allie Trimm once her contract is up. She is one of the best Glinda's we have ever had!!!! And I hope they let her keep her British Accent!!!(FIRST BACK) Thank Goodness - Sophie Evans | WICKED London | 15th September 2021 (Reopening)
