Chess was robbed of a nomination for Best RevivalLea Michele was robbed of a nomination for Best Actress This should have been a race between Ragtime vs Chess for Best Revival. Now Ragtime is the only suitable option left.Let’s hope Lost Boys wins Best Musical. Schmigadoon is another good one.

Weird."When did I say that???? I never wrote that

Nope, but still hit hard.Lear deBessonet just knew how to stage those scenes and effortless took direction to create images without a single thing (hyperbole!) on that stage. I kept looking how things were being managed and felt like it's a very clever part of the production this direction. I know many people didn't liked that, but I dig hard.The cast? Probably my favorite of all of these musicals. The 5 actors nominated earne...

But did Broadway love her back? No it didn’t it stabbed her in the back after years of loyalty.

https://people.com/michael-arden-defends-broadway-flop-the-queen-of-versailles-musical-11971531 This article is interesting. It is my belief that this was in fact a great show and the only reason it closed was because Kristen Chenoweth was a victim of cancel culture. Kristen Chenoweth is one of the greatest performers to ever grace the stage and to go through all those months with people on this thread saying awful things about her it’s disgusting. It’s why the Broadway Community is so toxic....

How about Kristen Chenoweth as Madeline Ashton and Idina Menzel as Helen?Although, Im not sure Kristen would want to come back to Broadway after how unfairly she was treated during her run in Queen of Versailles. She deserved better and everyone on this site owes her an apology. You can dislike the show but the things that were said about her we’re disgusting.Idina, it would be so nice to see her back on stage. She was great in Redwood another show treated so poorly.

TheatreMonkey said: "As we say in the South, bless your heart.Obviously, you place more on sets and bombast than others do -- and that's OK. But you also have to accept that many, many others place more import on a well-written book, solid songwriting, and a cohesive whole than just ...sets. That's not the "downfall of theatre", it's personal taste (which may not be aligned with your own.)"Two Strangers is not a well-written book, the songs with a few exceptions are not “solid songwriting”. I...

kdogg36 said: "gibsons2 said: "I still haven't seen the musical but can't help getting very conservative vibes from all the promo videos and ads."Well, what I meant to say is the show itself doesn't endorse any conservative vibes you may get from the promotional materials. Of course, if they're calibrating those materials to try to appeal to conservatives, that says something not very flatteringabout the producers."The production obviously is appealing to those that idolize the Golden Era of ...
