What I do prefer would be a live cast recording over some of the sanitized, over processed and autotuned recordings that suck all the life out of a score. I think Chess would be amazing if it were recorded live.

Love seeing the grosses/capacity for Gatsby. Pretty impressive considering so many predicted it would close after the 2024 Tonys. 

They must have cut quite a bit- show ended at 4:34 and they easily could have shaved off another 10 minutes.

Nina White steals the show. 

Aisha’s voice meshes much better with Jeremy’s than with Ryan’s, based on clips we’ve seen. Will try to win the lottery to see them.

Angel of Harlem said: "How can it be 101% capacity?"

Standing room.

While the magic of the piece really calls for unknowns- I doubt they’ll go that way.

That said, what about Amber Reilly?

I agree, I just hope the sound design is decent.

Isn't he MAGA (or at the very least, MAGA-lite)? He's sung at a number ofRepugfundraisers."

So I’ve heard. But I was attempting to keep the discussion about replacement casting and not politics.

Not a name at all, but while I was watching MHE, I kept thinking Dez Duron would suit the role well.

According to Samantha’s TikTok , she is the understudy for both Florence and Svetlana. 

DramaTeach said: "Call me crazy, but Betsy Wolfe just posted on her story about seeing Just in Time and said, “More soon aboutthis show and the brilliant cast.” Erika recentlyposted that she’s leaving soon. Could Betsy be stepping in?"

Love Betsy, but she’s at least 10 years too old for the Sandra Dee role.

CoffeeBreak said: "I wonder how much tickets will be for that."

I’m considering purchasing the $50 MasterVoices membership for early access and a 15% discount. 

Thieves in 1974 or ‘75. I saw it on a school trip- it played at the Broadhurst and starred Marlo Thomas and Richard Mulligan. 

Copied from the Beaumont website:

”ACCESS TICKET INFORMATION
Buy online at Telecharge.com. Specifically, to order wheelchair or transfer arm locations select the "Find Tickets" button and click the "Wheelchair & Transfer Arm Seating" link.”

I had a very similar experience when I attended. There was a small group of us who had to practically beg to be taken to the elevator. Staff acted quite annoyed at our existence. They were infinitely nicer when I left. 
 

I had called ahead of time, but they definitely downplayed the lack of accessibility. 

I was just able to enter.

I can't even imagine closing down 44th Street for DCFMA- the logistics seem far more complex (and the scene appears to take quite a bit longer) than the Sunset walk. But what do I know.

I gave up and called Telecharge directly- the performance/seat I wanted was still available.
