No one’s so-called tea is ever as fictional as someone who knows someone in the cast.

Went to the viewing party last evening at Green Room 42, and had a decently entertaining time. The host played games with the audience during commercial breaks and what have you, but some of the participants struggled with Broadway trivia, which was odd considering the event. They would play a clip from a song and you had to guess the Tony winner. Tell me why no one recognized Len Cariou’s “Epiphany” or George Hearn in La Cage? There was also a younger couple sat at the next table with an old...

Twenty years ago, it was 8 minutes after showtime for Jujamcyn shows.

AOC requires a lot of cast, and the original staging incorporated a multi-level house. The set could be downsized but that cast is quite large. No way those two names, as talented as they are, will be opening a commercial production of that play. They would need a big name for Violet, at least. I say give it to Metcalf. She can do anything. Not a name, per se, so Barb would need to be star casting.In terms of ODC, I say hell yes. I really enjoyed the original production, and thought that seve...

Which performances did RZ have scheduled absences each week? I cannot remember from the London run.

The show was a turkey, and her one trick pony schtick was not enough to save the day this time around.

Saw the most recent episode of Hacks and immediately thought “Cherry Jones would be a fantastic Violet Weston.”

And just for fun:”but was shooting cylinders the rest of the time.”Isn’t it firing on all cylinders?

I completely forgot this production was still open after word-of-mouth quickly fizzled out after those reviews.

Metcalf was included, so I’m set.

It’s a museum piece at this point. Even after all the chatter re: casting for the last revival, a legendary director and star gave us the most ordinary (arguably pedestrian) production possible. Laurents is gone, this was the chance to try something big that he could not veto. Instead of a big artistic swing, we got Audra crying in every big scene despite her character saying “this time I’m not crying” and Louise’s back-up dancers wearing spray painted unitards from UNIQLO. The result was a l...

I wondered how long it would take before someone said the “T” word, which is more applicable to the folks bemoaning Rudin’s continued success. Have a great weekend, though!

She’s got talent but she was in way over her head in Gypsy. She needed a better director to get her there, and Wolfe was not up to task. Or perhaps Woods was not. Probably both because that production was not it.

I suspect Sally’s book scenes will have her lost at sea, but good for her.

Not a fan of this piece, but after these reviews, I had to get a ticket. Had a similar situation with Sunet BLVD, and that ended up being my favorite show last season. Very excited to see this!
