RAGTIME 2025 New Broadway Cast Recording Thread Jan 11 2026, 02:21:48 PM
I believe the original recording had an additional 10 string musicians or so, although someone correct me if I'm wrong.

RAGTIME 2025 New Broadway Cast Recording Thread Jan 9 2026, 01:12:35 AM
It's fantastic. Of course the original recording will never be topped but this is a damn good recording of a damn good score. I will be having this version of Till We Reach That Day on constant repeat.
I'm so thrilled the production is seeing such success and I hope it continues through 2026 -- we really need this show in this anniversary year. This truly is the rare kind of score that will be listened to and revered many long de

I don't think the return of Beetlejuice is paying off the way the producers were hoping it would.

Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 11/2/25 Nov 4 2025, 02:01:16 PM
Does Halloween at all affect turnout for Broadway? With the holiday landing on a Friday this year leading to the "Halloweekend" of parties and other gatherings, does it affect ticket sales at all? Is there a historical precedence?
It was a down week definitely but still on par with this time last year and still up from 2023 levels.

Oracle: 42nd St and CAROUSEL Oct 27 2025, 11:33:50 PM
That's all fine and dandy but... how does one make 42nd Street dark à la Sunset Boulevard? Have they read the script? A dark look into the underbelly of Broadway it ain't. And I adore 42nd Street.
(unless there's a vision I just cannot see for the life of me)
Love Carpenter tho and would love to have her back on Broadway one day.

EDSOSLO858 said: "As was rumored, Jeremy Jordan will return to the show starting November 10."
Curious that the rumor was it would be a limited return for the holidays and no where in the announcement does it say anything about a "limited run." While I can't imagine it being a long term return, I wonder if they have him contracted past the holidays and through the winter as well?

I wonder if back-to-school has hit Outsiders more than they anticipated. We know that the Thursday matinees were very popular for school groups. I remember that last year they started doing Thursday matinees relatively early on in the beginning of September. This year, Thursday matinees don't start for another two weeks. I'm curious to see how their grosses compare come October/November. Either way, I think they might have it in them to

Favorite Entr'actes Sep 29 2025, 10:27:17 PM
I know people yearn for the return of Overtures, but I yearn for the return of Entr'actes. Most shows nowadays steamroll right back into the action, giving audiences barely any breathing room to get settled after intermission.
I get so irked when the audience is still milling about and the house lights just completely go out (not even a brief fade to half anymore) and when they come up, we're immediately back to telling the story, and all you hear are bags being shuffled,

THE GREAT GATSBY Opening Night Critics’ Reviews Sep 9 2025, 12:09:03 PM
My guess is a ten week run. November 10 through January 18. Curious to see the box office returns.

THE GREAT GATSBY Opening Night Critics’ Reviews Aug 17 2025, 02:30:56 PM
Sales are dwindling. Weekly grosses have been under $1 million for a few weeks now. I feel like the steam is running out for this production. Unless they have some surprise stunt casting in the works, I think they'll hold on for the remainder of the year and close come January.

Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 8/10/25 Aug 12 2025, 05:26:47 PM
I'm curious as to the timing surrounding when a show announces recoupment. For instance, & Juliet recouped its initial investment the week ending April 14, 2024 but didn't announce that they had until June 11. Is the timing related to budget vs capitalization (i.e. initial investment, priority loans, tax credit repayments, etc.)?
Granted, & Juliet's investment was $17 million whereas the average investment nowadays i

Speaking of La Jolla, isn't 3 Summers of Lincoln trying to come in as well?

As others have said, Mamma Mia! is going to be a juggernaut during it's interim on Broadway.
Thrilled that John Proctor is still doing strong business post-Sadie.
I'm curious if this is the end of the line for Gatsby. It's run much longer than anyone thought it would but it appears to be running out of steam despite it being tourist season. If the rumors are true that Jeremy Jordan is planning a return e

MAMMA MIA! Previews Aug 2 2025, 05:35:57 PM
CATSNYrevival said: "I'm not surprised. It's a fun show. If they've built in an extension I expect it will be extended beyond the initial six months. And I don't think the general public will care that the scenery isn't as elaborate as it used to be."
The show is slated to go back out on tour in early March until August so I doubt it'll extend beyond February. Although I wouldn't be surprised if it returns following the tour wit

I'm curious what the tour's capitalization is.
Do we also have an idea or indication on the Broadway production's recoupment status?
