Profile for Mary_Poppins

Maybe it's just me but one video had no sound and the other was an interview with Jeremy Jordan or sth.So here's my attempt:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezOTgtTNSyA Please ignore Lea's less than professional sounding voice. She tends to get very emotional on such occasions.

Aaron, Lea and Nick will be onLate Night with Seth MeyersNBC Monday April 20 12:35/11:35c

Wayman_Wong said: "By the way, is this the first time some folks have seena Sardi's portrait? These drawings seldom look like their subjects. It's not just Lea."I've seen them before and I know they have neither been very similar nor proper caricatures for quite some time now. But Lea's is literally more similar to Idina than to herself. Whoever drew it must have realized that.

And, of course, looks nothing like her 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣.Anyway what's far more important is how many people from different stages of her career showed up for her. One in the eye for that stupid narrative that nobody likes her. Stephen Mark Lukas, understudy Nick in FG , came down from Boston where the Beauty and the Beast tour is currently playing, to be there.Also nice to see Judy Kuhn." There are countless people out there ...

kdogg36 said: "[...]With that out of the way - do you not think it is absolutely crazy that Broadway producers sometimes (often, it seems) expect writers to work for free?" Of course I agree. Absolutely everybody involved should be properly paid.When there are problems the bucket's first stop should be at the producers and investors. After all, they are the ones who set the business up to make a profit, so they should also take the risk. If the producers have good reasons to try to keep the s...

No, kdogg36 clearly said: "The authors should get paid before anyone else, including the cast".Emphasis mine. Now that I pointed out the problem with that the tune is very different:"I don't think anyone said that?""The actors deserve to get paid, and they always get paid"Also: "they wouldn't have the material and the job if it wasn't for the authors"True, but this works the other way round as well.You seem to be thinking of a situation where a penniless author after years of struggle is fina...

kdogg36 said: "I watched that video and it is shocking. The authors should get paid before anyone else, including the cast. What can we do to fix this?You mean, ALW should be paid for the 1000th staging of his stuff before the people who actually work on it and need to pay their bills?"

ColorTheHours048 said:"Sharing that you saw a show with friends or on social media is a vital marketing tool nowadays, like it or not. I’ve had friends tell me that they saw a particular show simply because I posted about it, something they wouldn’t have seen if I hadn’t. I’m hardly an influencer and only share with a small group, but it’s a ripple effect." Yup. Look how e.g. Chess lowers its rather large neon sign to stage floor level during the bows so it's in every curtain call video. And ...

uncageg said: "I just can't listen to her "Nobody's Side". I am just not into the way she periodically sings ahead of the music. When I saw it in October I thought it might have just been a sound thing but she has continued to do it.."Seb28 said "I feel like she doesn't understand the timing of the verses. She hangs on the beat while she should be in between them with the words."So which one is it? And which one should it be?You wanna-be experts?

GirlFromOz68 said: "As I live in the future I already have it. 😉"As we will have to wait for the future to move around the globe, can you say something about the album, just to make us more jealous?

Chess scored 4 wins at the Broadway Ensemble Awards including Most Outstanding Ensemble.

lala3 said: "I found the "cringe" factor of his character on Glee mostly trumped up by teen stans of the show who didn't like his character because he crossed one of their faves.I was a part of the Glee fandom and mostly found them ridiculous and inventing and exaggerating aspects of his character.Critics also went to town on his character because that's what they do. Some of it was fair, but some of it was just plain derision.And like many characters on Glee he was written inconsistently and...

For the Youtube-averse: Colbert will air Nobody's Side again tomorow.

Well, at least this strategy got them an article in Forbes and a thread on BWW.

Lea will be on the Kelly Clarkson Show on Monday March 30. AFAIK this was taped February 9. After Bryce was announced on KC I thought they had somehow scratched Lea's segment, but here we go.

GirlFromOz68 said: "that is really not true re Lea. you may not be a fan of her performance but she is giving an acting performance and not just singing. as has been mentioned before she is playing Florence as very tightly wound , holding a lot in as she is a more restrained character than others she has played before. Apparently if Lea isn't playing an extrovert like Rachel or Fanny shes not acting to some people.Lea talked about her take on the role extensively at the radio event yesterday ...
