Profile for What The Dickens

Ramin was great! 

Pirates! was great! 

I respect your opinion and am curious which Dead Outlaw song(s) would have been a better choice. I love the coroner's showstopper Up To The Stars name dropping dead celebrities but was very happy with the medley they chose. 

Good overall assessment. I really enjoyed seeing Pirates last week (as did the audience, great energy) so do yourself a favour and check it out and I also enjoyed (in London) Mincemeat. )

You lose credibility by saying Purpose isn't a good play. Oh Mary! and Purpose are both terrific and it's very hard to compare the two as they are so different. 

Which & why? Who should have won?

I loved Dead Outlaw on Broadway (saw it twice after accidently scoring a lottery ticket). I hope it sells more tickets soon and enjoys a healthy run. It'll be interesting to see how it fares in the Tonys. Maybe featured actor &/or actress nods for Jeb Brown and Julia Knitel are their best chances. 

The #SamMendes revival with #AlanCumming is still the best version for me, but I really enjoyed #CabaretAtTheKitKatClub recently. #OrvillePeck is very good as #Emcee & #EvaNoblezada is my new favourite #SallyBowles.

Wondering where you heard this? I seem to recall being told on this message board more than once last year (maybe earlier) that Hadestown was due to close. 

 

 

Eva Noblezada closed her Jan 2023 Audible Theater show at Minetta Lane with a great encore version of Life Is A Cabaret. Blew the roof off the place. 

 

Another enthusiastic vote for The Hills Of California. I just saw it for the second time having enjoyed the London production in February.
