It's always nice to see new footage of Gavin, but I really wasn't too impressed with this doc. The host and artist (not Gavin) felt a little self-important and very into their own work. A bit of a nothing-burger, but nice to see Gavin speak on some touching topics.

Here are some of mine that get repeats:Marin singing Old Friends/Like it WasEmily Skinner singing (tied for) my favorite version of Could I Leave You (tied with Donna's and Jan Maxwell's perhaps more well-known versions of course)Shoshana's Finishing the Hat (the first time I ever actually understood this song. It made me weep.)@ 3:35, Beth Leavel's (somewhat schticky but nevertheless) heartbreaking version of Not While I'm AroundElaine singing Anyone Can WhistleLiza's Rose's Turn ('get off o...

I'm reading through the new material on the website as I watch the Met version on YT (I wanted to re-acquaint myself before listening without visuals). David Hyde Pierce is listed as (seemingly?) a financial producer on both the MCC production and the album itself. Douglas Sills is also in the "special thanks" section for the album. I never knew there was a connection there. Anyone else?But yes, like you all and many more, spent lots of time today... and this year thinking of him, his contrib...

Is that fully on pitch at all times? Yes...? Did you listen to it?

This season's Floyd Collins really got me into Guettel. I'm trying to find more composers of that ilk and Ricky Ian Gordon keeps getting recommended to me. Any favorite tracks or places you'd recommend to start? Or other composers with similar vibes?

Messaged you!!

I anticipate this being fruitless but it couldn't hurt. TL;DRLooking to swap my Saturday, Nov 29th 8pm ticket for Nov 1st 2pm I got my linctix ticket for Ragtime, but then got tickets for Bat Boy... trying to prevent coming to the city twice in one month. Anyone interested in a swap?Could also swap for Oct 31st evening show.

ignore me - i literally forgot i am 31 years old LMAO (i cry)

Was there a code? I signed up, but all the tickets are full price still.

Thank you to the folks that sent it to me. Much appreciated!! Wewdie - if you need it let me know and I can forward it your way

Hey y'all.Many years ago when Big Fish was doing it's pre-broadway in Chicago, they released two singles available for download from the musical's website - Fight the Dragons and Time Stops.Fight the Dragons was pretty much the same as the cast album. However, Time Stops was slightly different in that NLB hits a gorgeous Ab at the end of the number.Does anyone have this that they could send my way? I'd be so appreciative. I can't find the file anywhere on my computer.

Any update from attendees? Setlist? Anthing?

It breaks my heart when people say the show isn't a good show. I thought this was so lovely, and small, and quiet and heartbreaking through and through. Auggie27 sums it up perfectly.I will agree that it has its slow moments, but so what? I'll also agree that I was a little disappointed by Lizzy's direction. I also wish it was in a shoebox theater.But I more than enjoyed myself and we are truly so spoiled to be able to hear a score as brilliant as this one.

Saw Orville and Eva a few days ago and have been thinking about it nonstop.One question I have - in "I Don't Care Much", what is the intention of this tender moment between Emcee and Sally? He looks terrified at first before he realizes its her... whats going on there?Ok, I guess two other questions:2. What was the significance of placing the statues... soldiers? Toys? On the revolve during... i forget which number.3. I felt like that was echoed in the finale. Regardless, was there any signif...

I appreciate everyone's opinions!! At this point I think I'm leaning towards the plays which is generally uncharacteristic of me.

So I have tickets already for Gypsy, Pirates, Glengarry, Floyd Collins and The Last Bimbo. I have one matinee open. I'm torn between:Death Becomes Her: Saw in Chicago and absolutely LOVED it. Would love to see what changes are made.Oh, Mary: Kind of a moot point - I can only afford the lottery, and if I win I'll absolutely be seeing this.The Outsiders: I think at the bottom of my list at this point. I missed it last season and still want to see it... but idk.Buena Vista Social Club: Has not b...

Only once. The recent Lord of the Rings musical in Chicago. It was nice enough. Perhaps if I wasn't in town visiting friends I would've stayed, but I just would've rather spent time with them than be in a show that really wasn't very good.

As someone who frequents IBDB and IOBDB ... The changes to the off broadway database are horrific. So not user friendly. What happened?! Anybody? Or is this a me problem hahahah

If anyone has a link i'd be forever grateful.

Watched it today and was moved to tears more than a couple times. I had tickets for this at MCC but it was cancelled due to Gavin being sick. I imagine some of the numbers hit harder now that he is no longer with us... but his talent as a songwriter and storyteller are undeniable. I am disappointed to have missed this in person, but so grateful to witness his glorious talent and HUMANness in this video. Thank you to the MET!
