Anyone heard a thing about this project in the meantime?It was supposed to have played here in Chicago prior to Broadway.

Still seeking capitalization, are we?

I saw 2 off-broadway musicals in the hotel's theater over the years:1969 - Curley McDimple1980 - Ka-Boom!

Anyone have an audio and/or video that they could provide me with?This was done in Chicago at the Auditorium Theatre.

I was told 2 things just now:1) Sonia Friedman has joined the production team, and 2) 2026.

Anyone aware of a demo recording of the score?

So this IS a commercial production?I can't find the producers involved anywhere.

Two things:I so very much share your enthusiasm for this long gone but inordinately high quality summer stock venue.I also appreciate your painstakingly constant research and regular updates.Anyone who missed attending a show there over the years, sadly missed out.And, of course, I have my personal favorites.Carlsberg forever!

I cannot wait to see what he does next."I can see him starring in Dear Evan Hansen, as Barnaby in Hello, Dolly!, and as the wannabe boyfriend in Next To Normal.I'll try to come up with some others.I think that he's extremely talented.

The 1902 was revived in Canton, Ohio on July 10, 2010.I was there.Clips from it were on YouTube sometime ago.

I had never seen him perform onstage until this.He did a 90 minute show in which he included a song from the recent Gatsby musical.He also performed a number from Little Shop; for which a volunteer was chosen from the audience to act as Audrey. Somewhere during he jokingly mentioned that in time, he'd be playing Mr. Mushnik.Another highlight was a roughly 10 minute capsule version of Newsies; in which he acted and sang all the roles!Towards the end of the show, he treated us to a terrific ren...

What is an industry reading?

Enough secrecy about the casting; already.C'mon.

After seeing it at the Goodman Theater Chicago in June, I got it into my head that it was next Broadway bound, but that was just me thinking.It has apparently fallen off the radar though, and I am curious to know if anyone has any update...

They have a hit here, whether it’s a critical success is another story. Wicked was also notably panned out of town, so who knows if they do any changes to this at all."The show's success in Chicago is solely based on the title (and, to some extent, th...

Any affirmation that this is going to land on Broadway this season?

Unfortunately, it's still only grossing $235k/week and needs ~$550k/week to break even, so they're still losing money. I guess that's why they're raising more money.Music Man oversold!What's Beetlejuice's strategy here? It's the second week they're below 65%; why are tickets still $129/pop?"I recall that the break even on PS is $599G.
