Is there a world where Brandy could take over for Viola?

I just noticed that Bella Coppola is now Jane Seymour in the Toronto cast. Does anyone know what happened to their initial Seymour? It seemed they went out pretty early in the Toronto run and haven't been back -- this is the second US replacement to be filling in.

I've seen it (at a screening last week) and the right two performers were nominated (Brooks is far and away the best thing about the movie). The nominations it didn't get, it doesn't deserve. I’ll never understand why they cut down I’m Here so much and have staged it like such an afterthought. Well, at least compared to all the huge musical numbers with Broadway-bodied dancers who just appear out of nowhere that don’t make any sense in context with the time and place.It does have its moments…...

Larcen26 said: "Plus, you can't discount Rosario Dawson has a far better voice than Daphne Rubin-Vega."I mean, honestly, how dare you. I recently watched a video of the OBC and was amazed at how many vocal shenanigans have been added over the years, mucking up what was a perfectly written vocal score. No one beats DR-V for a full-force live experience of Mimi.

In March, I sent Lea (FUNNY GIRL) and Bonnie (KIMBERLY AKIMBO) a note, the Playbills I had from seeing their performances, and SASE with extra postage with no real expectation. Was so pleasantly surprised to get a response from Bonnie about a month later with a personal note and my Playbill signed by the entire cast (and I know it was mine because I had the date written in it). I sort of knew Lea's was a pipe dream...but was crossing my fingers anyway.

My feeling is that if you've walked out of a show (just like a movie), I don't feel like you get to comment on the quality of the work. You didn't stay for the whole thing? You don't get to add your $.02. Only those that stick it out get to speak. I've gritted my teeth for plenty of bad productions just to say I made it out alive. The few shows I have checked out of at intermission I've kept quiet about.

Also, putting in another vote for Titanique. They have a Saturday show at 5pm. You could do KA matinee, hop on the subway over to Titanique, and then come back for the evening show.KA wasn’t on my list at all when I went back in December and it wound up being the best thing I saw (aside from Lea Michele in Funny Girl which is not to be missed for any sum of money)

According to his Pimpernel bio on the Engemann Theatre website."Looks like that the bit about BTTF has been removed from his bio."It definitely has. He didn’t expressly say the title or character name but it was obvious. Guess it was too obvious…

Having blazed through this entire second season, I can safely say this blows Season 1 right out of the water. Flat-out riotous numbers perfectly spoofing this new era while remaining musically interesting and writing that felt like it had a bigger picture mentality in mind. I can see this season getting more awards buzz. Krakowski steals the entire show…

I’ve watched the first ep of Season 2 (all are available to me right now but it’s late and I need sleep) and so far this looks to be an incredibly enjoyable season. Totally different tone, as intended, with the principal cast returning in these fun new roles mirroring the “dark” musicals from the ‘60s and ‘70s.Already the music is impressive, there’s a hysterical riff on a famous Cy Coleman song from a Fosse show that should win an Emmy.

They should get Debbie (call me Deborah) Gibson to play Mrs. Brice and give her a full-circle Funny Girl tour moment.

Overslept and missed the TodayTix rush when I was in town a few weeks back. I figured I would check at the box office anyway just in case and they sold me a third row center seat for $45.I’d check with the box office.

Saw the performance tonight, I thought Howes (and the show) were terrific. Interesting to note, understudy Justin Scott Brown who was supposed to be on for Ernie Lally was out and Beth Kirkpatrick was on as “Elizabeth” Lally. Talk about making it work. At first, when I heard about the COVID of it all, I was disappointed not to see a full cast but this arrangement tonight was first-rate.

Performance canceled today, really last minute. Audience left with no options to see other shows - ack, what a bummer.

Has anyone won the Telecharge lotto? Good seats?

How are the rush seats won via Telecharge?

Going to try for standing room for the Thursday matinee…any suggestions on what time to stop by the theater?
