Profile for SisterGeorge

As an out-of-towner, I've never put Titanique high on the list of show to see on my frequent but short theater trips to New York, mostly because I hate the movie and have never been a Celine fan, although I do appreciate her bountiful campness and  was unexpectedly awed by her Paris Olympics performance. Reading this thread, though, is making me think that since I loved Rudetsky's "Disaster!"  in its St. Luke's  iteration and all those

His next project should probably be to take a breatherfor a bit."

His next film should be titled: Media Training (how not to piss on other art.)"

His next film is actually titled "Dune: Part III," scheduled for release in December, and I

ColorTheHours048 said: "The lead female role in this has no reason to be a gay man, and in fact robs the play of any reason to exist. If Billy Porter wants to play a bitchy Hollywood agent, they should write another play for him. A friend of mine suggested Sandra Oh, and I think that’s brilliant casting.

That said, they’re clearly trying to rival Johnny Galecki’s, uh… talent… by hiring Cooper Koch."

So we know for sure t

Hey opera lovers in DC and beyond, let's make sure all those Lisner Auditorium performances SELL OUT!
Fun fact: The company made its debut as the Opera Society of Washington in 1957 at Lisner Auditorium 

For anyone traveling to Buenos Aires during their winter (our summer), they have A LOT of theater, including many Broadway musicals (and some home-grown ones as well). I was just there in April, unfortunately a little too early to catch anything, but productions of The Little Mermaid, Pretty Woman, Spring Awakening, Next to Normal, The Little Prince and -- most intriguingly -- Rocky were about to open, all on Avenida Corrientes,  which our guide referred to--with an adorable mi

I"m seeing PHANTOM in Vienna this month and CAGE AUX FOLLES in Berlin later this year, and thought it would be fun to see  what American and British musicals others have seen in translation.

My first was CALLE 42 in Mexico City (my favorite show mug), followed by EL REY LEON in Madrid, HAIR and ANNIE in Oslo in Norwegian, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR in Czech in Prague in a domed theater with a 360-degree auditorium and revolving stage that resembled the Thunderdome, the Flemi

Speaking of, anyone know of a delicious, nice-looking Thai restaurant in walking distance to the theater? The evening is an anniversary treat for the parents, so nothing too funky or hole-in-the-wallish. Thanks."

There are a slew of Thai places on 9th avenue that are all

My first show was Oliver! in Miami when I was in 4th grade. On my first trip to NYC December 1976, my first show on Broadway was a matinee of The Night of the Iguana with Richard Chamberlain, Dorothy McGuire, and Sylvia Miles. That evening I saw the Raul Julia and Ellen Greene in Joe Papp's Threepenny Opera at Lincoln Center. I have no memory of how or where I bought the tickets. I also squeezed in my first Met opera that weekend -- Tosca

Per Google,

A "ballerino" isan Italian term for a male ballet dancer.It is the masculine counterpart to the word "ballerina," which refers to a fem
