I think he is a pretty decent Shakespeare but I am not a fan of his choices as Toby. He is easily my least favorite of the 4 Shakespeares I have seen (I include Eric Sciotto who played the role the month between Chase and Pascal) but still overall some reasonably high marks.HE just seems to be playing a role where the Borle and Sciotto inhabited the role (and Chase to a slightly lesser extent)

I don't get the distain at this. Why would anyone be surprised if the child of an inventor in that era also dabbled. Even if he makes music boxes, she would be familiar with clockwork devices. when I was a kid I helped my dad build model railroads and even in first grade or so was pretty handy and anticipating whet he needed next.The one thing that concerns me is rumors that Gaston is more of a Tenor. I can't imagine the role without a healthy dollop of basso profundo

If it isn't taken I am interested.It is not letting me PM you tho, wanting me to register, when I already am, so maybe try toPM me if still available

and the ANTA before that

there were little things throughout.John started to tear up during to your own self be true. Got a big hug from one of the ensembleHE and Heidi were a little teary during right hand man repriseChristian's last flourish in the tap battle was a little longer (tho I am glad that Rob went back to the single tap in reply)Also Christian worked in a star wars reference as he was losing it in Hard to be the bard, telling the quill that it was his only hope.So glad to have been there Saturday night

If personal interests are being prioritized over users' right to free speech, I will seriously have to question whether I want to be part of this online community going forward."That is probably fine.

tourists don't usually know there is a theater below 42nd St (or east of Times Square for that matter)

I don't think the stage is that high, but if it is, they certainly do have booster seats

Right after the Tony performance when Amy Spanger either quit or was fired from Rock of Ages. I don't know which and won't speculate.All I know is that she stepped out of the show for vocal rest right after the Tonys, and a few weeks later I woke to a playbill article that she was rejoining the show that night, and by the time I got home from work the same article was there but edited to say that she was leaving the show permanently.Whatever happened she was at the final performance last year

RippedMan said: "Who sings "Mamma Look Sharp" in this?"John-Michael LylesAnd I have to wonder if the multi racial casting and modern dress were perhaps both inspired by this numberLyles is African-American and his costume as the courier was camo pants, and a dark hoodie.Just imagine a Black youth in a hoodie singing that song, about a mother looking for her son who was shot dead in the village square. Powerful imagery that took nothing away from the number but added so much

I haven't noticed her but I do see the old guy frequently.I went to the first preview of the recent Jekyll and Hyde revival and he was out asking, and I just told him they were selling tix at the rush or lottery price even then just before the showTo his credit on that day, he shut up and went and got a $20 ticket or whatever the deal was.every other time he just creeped me out

It is not a guarantee but keep an eye out the last hour of the Broadway Flea MArketLast year I came upon a table that had 3 older playbill binders full of old magazines that were all they had left and sold me for a buck each. I don't know that the playbills in there were of any interest to me and I will probably put them out on a table next year, but 3 of the old brown binders for 3 bucks cannot be beat

James Barbour has not been accused of rape."any sexual contact is rape if one party says no, and legally a 15 year old is incapable of saying yes to a 34 year old.What decade are you living in?

adamgreer said: "How have more people not mentioned "Losing My Mind" in this thread? That's pretty much the gold standard for this type of song as far as I'm concerned Nothing in Hamilton, Satisfied or otherwise, comes close to what Sondheim accomplished in that song."Did you opt to not read the thread because that was mentioned more than once in the (only) 3 pages so far. I wonder if the people who are not attached to the number are mostly ones who have not seen it live. There is a literal r...

AHLiebross said: "His performance is amazing. He's also gracious to his fans and works hard for BC/EFA. For those talking about the "creepiness factor," it's time the public forgave him for a long-ago offense for which he has atoned.Last I checked I was part of the public, and I sure as hell have not.

There is a line from Kindergarten Boyfriend in Heathers that is uncomfortably and Old Red Hills of Home in Paradecompare the melody for the line I go to fight for these old hills behind meThese Old Red Hills of HomeandLast night I dreamed a horse with wingsFlew down into my home room

The stage is not high at all, and I have never had so much leg room in a first row, ever. The only knock I will say is when the student's desks are out, even front row on the aisle becomes partially blocked. But really I am not going to complain too much for $25I love Sierra, but I am going to picture Mamie in the role when I think about it.

I didn't hate it, but I didn't particularly like it either.I felt the score didn't fit the show. It wasn't like Spring Awakening where there is a contemporary score in a period piece, because they abandoned that for some more traditional seeming numbers . . . and I didn't recall a single melody once it was over. I felt that Morrison was miscast, and I was a little offended when he ripped open his shirt, a move that was just so out of character for the historical Barrie. The less said about Gr...

Seth Rudetsky arranged them around the performers, see Shoshanna Bean and her whistle tone, etc. also after doing the concert, theyonly had a take or two to record them, and Rudetsky couldn't be there for all of it, so sometimes things got missed, like a blah ending by the background singers at the en...
