Unpopular Opinions

I think the immersive, in the round, setting actually hindered The Great Comet more than it helped. It's one of my favorite scores and I'd love to see a proscenium staging with traditional sets.  


BAT OUT OF HELL - Town Hall

g.d.e.l.g.i. said: "raddersons said: "Is there still a character named “Tink”?"

Yes, but their B-plot has been cut down so much that they're almost vestigial at this point, and have been played by either a woman or a man.

SCHMIGADOON! Reviews

They used to always say that shows that would tour well had a bit of an edge in regards to Best Musical. Is that still a thing? I can see Tony voters fresh off of MHE feeling like another small, ultimately 2-character piece, is not the vibe… it's time to crown a big, traditional, fun show.  I think Shmig checks a lot of boxes and might win by default in a weak season. 


The Rocky Horror Show Expectations

There's a certain kind of "call-backer" that they are singling out. The kind of person who does every. single. one. There's folks who have a callback for every line in the show - and they get so


The Rocky Horror Show Expectations

I've done the show and the callbacks are a blast in moderation. It's best when large groups do the "classic" ones, and a few folks with great projection, diction, and comedic timing sneak in a few "zingers." ... It's sadly the super-fans that often ruin the show for the rest of the audience (and the actors). The play version isn't built to have a call back after every single line. Also, you're not mic'd, and everybody is competin


Songs about men sung by women? Rop

Great minds (see my post earlier) ;)

DANG! Even worded the same!

The song "A Man" from Weird Romance - super obscure, but it's exactly what you're looking for.


Plays You Hope Get Revived

August Osage Country, Jeffrey, Noises Off ... 


OH, MARY Reviews (2026 New)

Yeeeeeaaaaasss!!! The trifecta is complete - literally seeing Dratch, Gasteyer, and Rudolf all on the same trip. Now I just need Paula Pell to show up in Cats: The Jellicle Ball. 


OH, MARY Reviews (2026 New)

TotallyEffed said: "Maya Rudolph has been rumored."

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeallly hoping these rumors are true! 


McKenzie Kurtz, Ana Gasteyer, Isabelle McCalla, Brad Oscar & More Join SCHMIGADOON! on Broadway

So.........once Maya Rudolph announces for Oh, Mary I can see all my favorite SNL ladies in a single weekend! Brilliant! 


Musical adaptation of THE LOST BOYS.

On paper this feels like it should be right up my alley. I loved Arden's direction in Parade, I loved Ali in Tommy, and I think the source material is good.... But I'm reeeeeeeeeeeally concerned the songs aren't going to do anything. They're going to rely on the book to tell the whole story and the songs are just going to be generic filler that barely and vaguely "comments" on what's going on. Hoping I'm proven wrong though! I'd love for this to be t


Rocky Horror Show Revival Cast

For the folks underwhelmed by the casting, what would have excited you? I'm a big fan of the show and my initial reaction to the cast line up is that it looks pretty stellar. For me, in terms of vibes it's through the roof... As long as everybody is up to the task vocally, I think we're in for a real treat. 


Have you ever seen a show before it goes to Broadway and feel…

I saw Six and Death Becomes Her prior to their Broadway runs. Loved them both, but when I'm in NYC the vibe is always that time is limited - so I'm always going to see something new. 


New Merrily Pro-Shot reviews

Maybe, because a traditional pro-shot of this exact production already exists with the London cast, they wanted a way to differentiate this version. So, they opted for a more "this is a real film" approach…


Spelling Bee Off Broadway Cast

Bizarre if they'd take a hiatus during the winter holiday peak.

Also loving the Thursday matinees!!

UPDATE: Those holiday weeks are now available so I'm thinking either a glitch or just holding them back until the last few hours


Little Shop...Who Leads? Anyone know?

Shouldn't Nicholas be working on his Chess game? ;) 


Spelling Bee Off Broadway Cast

Interesting. No dates from 12/15 - 01/05 .... I wonder if they are taking a holiday break? or those shows just aren't available as part of the pre-sale ???
