Merkin2 said: "Frozen is genuinely one of the worst musicals I’ve ever seen. I hated Aladdin and think I’d rank Frozen even lower. Julie Taymor said she was only going to do The Lion King if it was pure theater and they need to goback to that. I would think someone like Alex Timbers would be a pretty good director for a Disney show given how he excels at spectacle. Maybe they can do another out of town of Hercules with another director"

 

Yes


Will Disney bring Hercules to Broadway?

The set, costumes, and book are not great. it’s serviceable but i don’t think they should bring it until it’s ready. Like aladdin, it’s watered down with eliminating the animal characters, and cutting Pain and Panic. the characters bob and charles are the most unfathomable changes disney has made.

I liked Frozen, they need to work on creating disney magic. Aladdin looks incredibly cheap.

I doubt it's going anywhere after Nashville's presentation anytime soon.

honestly once they cut the whole first act and give KRC more material, it’ll be chefs kiss

I know from experience that I’ve looked at the Telecharge map on the day of the show (usually to explore possible discounts or rush options) and while it looks half full at the start of the day, by showtime, the house is almost nearly full.

One pattern I notice is that, the closer you get to showtime, especiall

I believe so. We had tickets to the 7:30 pulse on Wednesday Jan 14th however we had Christine and Phantom understudies, Tia and Cooprr who were also fantastic

Went again last night, and there are noticeable changes.  The bridge has been cut entirely, along with the act two opener. Jolene now opens act two.


Bio musicals have some built in problems with living legends

Hi!  I was at the first preview and returned this afternoon!  They did shave some it down, and the most noticeable changes to me were:

The opening.  Preshow the stage looked like Dolly's dressing room but it's now bare.  KRC also opened the show first preview with her finale outfit I think.  Now, she is dresse


Dolly Parton Broadway Bio Musical aiming for Spring 2025
 Jul 19 2025, 10:55:56 AM

Saw the show last night snd it ran three hours. Obviously, it’s a work in progress but it has a lot of heart. KRC really surprised me, especially in act two, she sounded just like Dolly. Here’s the song list

Act one:

"Opening"

"My Mountains, My Home"

"Bigger Than Life"

"Partners"

"Thy Will Be Done/If I Had Wings"

"Uncle Billy"

"Puppy Love"

Disney’s HERCULES will transfer to the West End in 2025

Who decided to change Pain and Panic to characters named Bob and Charles? They deserve to be blacklisted from working in this industry. Like why would you think that is a good idea…


Little Shop...Who Leads? Anyone know?

It’s less than a week from Milo and Liz’s last show so it’s either them extending again or understudies covering fri a few weeks because the new cast would be in rehearsals by now

I haven’t seen the show yet, but as a fan of the show who watched weekly as it aired, i’m not sure how i feel about the upbeat version of let me be your star.  i know it’s part of the plot that its being worked out but its just not satisfying. when we finally get to hear the ballad version, its not even ivy.  i think the idea is good but it just doesn’t work for me.
