I think Pink could definitely sing the part. No opinions on how the acting would go because I don’t think I’ve seen her act in anything outside of a music video. But I do think she’s insanely talented. I know she’s trying to get her daughter into the business, but this seems like an odd choice. It’s a very intense, dramatic show. Her daughter is a decent singer, but I think she needs a lot more training before being able to play a role like this. I was going to say she’s also too young, but I...

Someone posted Julie Halston's speech on YouTube, and honestly the price of admission was worth it for this alone!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXAyihoX0jY

They've had the same setup for the Follies and Dolly concert the last two years and neither of those were ever released in any form."I wonder if the Dolly issue was Bette not wanting the larger audience know what's happened to her voice."Bette didn't appear at the Dolly concert last year. I would have been over the moon if she had!

I absolutely loved the show. I think they did an excellent job with the selection of singers for each song. Robyn Hurder, Marisha Wallace, Jessica Vosk, and Andrew Rannells were the standouts. Mo Rocca and Marc Shaiman did an excellent job as hosts moving things along. And getting appearances by John Kander and Lorna Luft were lovely.I think Julie Halston definitely stole the show. I was cracking up throughout her entire story. The comment after that it was all of pride month balled up into o...

I loooove [tos] and still listen to it and quote it on the regular. But it seems like such a strange show to bring back. I agree with everyone else saying it was a product of its time and its cast. A musical about two guys writing a musical about two guys writing a musical seems like an odd choice for a Glee reunion on Broadway.

Someone on Reddit posted a link to a ticketing page that said sold out. It looks like that was the page that would have been used for selecting and buying tickets. There was also a link to an Upcoming Events page. I was able to access those pages even when the Rent 30 page was still giving an error. I’m wondering if some people knew about that and clicked through that way and were able to get tickets while the “main” page was still down?https://tickets.broadwaycares.org/events/827

Before the site crashed I had opened up the link, which had a blue button that said “get tickets as 12pm eastern.” I didn’t refresh that page and still have it open. Obviously that button never went live on that page. Definitely confused how any one was able to get tickets if the website was fully crashed.

BCEFA just posted on Insta that the in-person tickets sold out within minutes today, but that there will be a lottery later this summer and a livestream.I was never able to get past the “high traffic page” on several devices https://www.instagram.com/p/DZDKRvRFNuQ/?igsh=MWRuNzV0b3R3M2d4dA==

TotallyEffed said: "Really? I paid $99 for a beautiful orchestra seat for Follies. Can't afford $300-450 to sit on the floor for this, especially when we don't know who is performing or if Liza will show. They also changed "signed copy" to just "copy," which I guess isn't a surprise at this point. I settled for a nosebleed which was still pretty expensive.I'm hoping for Joel Grey and Ben Vereen to make appearances."I just looked through my email, and I paid about $60 for upper balcony for Dol...

TotallyEffed said: "Tickets for the Carnegie Hall tribute are damn expensive."I wasn’t too too bothered by them. More than Hello, Dolly!, but a lot less than what I paid for Follies. Half an hour in and there’s still plenty sub-$100 tickets available. I do think my expectations for this concert are incredibly high and I’m hoping for an A++ cast.I’m just glad the queue was well managed. I think I still have PTSD from the Chorus Line Actors Fund benefit! 😂

I laughed and genuinely appreciate the added clarification in the subject line!

Charley Kringas Inc said: "The ur-example is the Hello Dolly revival, which sounds like a sickly child on the cast recording, but it's hard for me to think of a recent case where I preferred the cast album over a good bootleg. I want that bigness."Dolly was my immediate thought when I first saw the post. That cast recording was so muted and sad compared to the joy in the live version. I don’t know what they were thinking. I will only listen to Bootlegs of that production.

Transport Group just announced their big concert this year is going to be a tribute to Liza - Liza! at 80. I loved the Follies and Dolly productions over the last 2 years, so I'll definitely be trying for tickets for this one.Interestingly, the website says that everyone will receive an autographed copy of the book, which I'm sure will bump the prices up even more.https://transportgroup.org/project/liza-at-80/

I can’t wait to read this! His career is fascinating.

Don’t they usually confirm with the nominees that they will accept before making the announcement? I’m sure the orange one with tiny hands wouldn’t risk having someone turn him down publicly.

So disappointed to hear that this run was cancelled. I’ve really been looking forward to it. I’m really not a fan of Christmas in general, but I adore this movie and will watch it and listen to the cast recording year round.I hope at some point we do get to see a stage adaptation.

I’ll do the job for free theatre tickets and train tickets to and from Philly.I have strong opinions about shows that people often disagree with and zero social media presence. I’m perfect for the job!

Zero “performance.” Based on what a few said, I thought she was in costume and giving a Val character performance. Nope. Just her standing behind the mic stand and just singing the song."Her performance was hilarious. She may have just stood behind the mic, but it was definitely not “just singing...
