Jun 10, 2023 — 3:22:41 AM

Hello!The touring production of "Six" has been in LA for the last few weeks, and tonight is the last night it's here. Anyone know of any link here or site to get a discount promo code for the 8pm performance on 6/10/23 at the Pantages? Thanks!

The IN THE HEIGHTS Film Adaptation Thread

Jun 16, 2021 — 3:39:38 PM

I agree with the questions about "why is Sonny a dreamer but Usnavi is not"...and similarly wondered about Usnavi's plans for the bodega upon his departure. He seems to close up shop but...if he needs the money, obviously...why wouldn't there be any reference to him selling it to a neighboring business or something? That way, when he reverses his decision at the end, it would be an easy thing for him to get backAnd yes...why couldn't Nina just go to a state school or at least closer to home? ...

The IN THE HEIGHTS Film Adaptation Thread

Jun 16, 2021 — 4:48:58 AM

It's been a long time since I saw ITH on stage, of course (touring production in 2009 in Chicago, maybe?), but since seeing (and re-watching) the film this week, I have had trouble wrapping my head around the ages of the main characters. There were changes from the musical to the film, out of necessity and some out of license to update (i.e. DACA storyline), but I don't think the ages of the characters changed, as they directly have to do with the inter-connected storylines.Usnavi says he's n...

Fiddler in Yiddish?

Feb 13, 2019 — 2:47:02 AM

This sounds wonderful. Will they be touring? I don't live in NY but grew up watching it, just saw the most recent (English version) tour when it came to Chicago about a month ago (with that wonderful Israeli actor whose name at the moment escapes me) and I was in a fab community theatre production of it, once. But would love to see this Yiddish version if it's going to tour a bit.

The Cher Show

Jun 29, 2018 — 12:10:59 PM

Agree, RevolutionaryCostume. "If I Could Turn Back Time" showed up in the first 15 mins of the show! It was disappointing that it was used as more of a throwaway, though, and should be more featured since it's one of her biggest hits.

The Cher Show

Jun 29, 2018 — 3:45:43 AM

Saw it tonight (Thurs 6/28, Press night) . Though the show is super FUN by virtue of the music alone, and is on its way to being freaking fantastic, I agree with many of the comments on what needs fixing. Some of the storyline gets muddled with the "show within a show" breaking off into songs/dramatizations of memories, and back to the "show" again. The part with Gregg Allman is over in mere minutes, and there is either a problem with the sound...or the actor...as a lot of his dialogue meant ...

"Beautiful" Chicago tour question

Jan 6, 2018 — 2:56:52 AM

Not sure if this has been discussed before, but it doesn't seem to be on the first few pages of this message board, at least:Do all the "Caroles" in "Beautiful" have to play their own piano? There are other characters who definitely do not, and the piano back is facing the audience so you can't see that those supporting actors are actually not playing. However, every time Carole plays, the piano is purposely cheating toward the audience so that you can see her play. Need to settle a bet with ...

HEDWIG TOUR

Mar 10, 2017 — 12:37:19 AM

Madela--most of his interaction out in the house in Chicago with the glasses, script and "shroud" were at audience left orchestra within the first 4- rows or so. I don't think he went nearly back to row P. But Yitzhak ran down the aisle before his finale outfit up that row, also.First time seeing it but have known about it for years. I echo everyone's sentiments about how phenomenal both Euan and Hannah were. I wished I'd seen NPH but that ship sailed long ago. I am curious how Darren Criss d...

The Official 2015 Tony Awards Viewing Party Thread

Jun 8, 2015 — 2:47:06 AM

Oh, I see: everyone else in this thread--nay--on this board--can routinely opine or question people with whom they aren't impressed--people they don't or didn't know personally--but I can't. Thanks, Message Board Boss. Have a nice evening.

The Official 2015 Tony Awards Viewing Party Thread

Jun 8, 2015 — 2:27:42 AM

No axe, just genuine curiosity. She grew up in my hometown and went to my high school. She was attractive but not "stage star-quality" beautiful, had a passable but not particularly noteworthy singing voice, yet got big parts in many of the school variety shows because a friend of her family's was the musical director and a voice coach at the school. (These shows and the district musicals were on par with, or larger-scale than, most professional theatre; the district is wealthy and the arts b...

The Official 2015 Tony Awards Viewing Party Thread

I just want to know where Kristin Caskey (Fun Home) got her money from to start producing/investing in Broadway musicals in the first place. She's never "worked" a day in her life and 10 years ago suddenly appeared on the Broadway scene through connections. Family money/inheritance, I think. But hey, yeah, congrats to the funeral home show.

Lady Gaga + Sound of Music

Feb 23, 2015 — 12:23:51 AM

I said it on Twitter and will say it again: Lady Gaga just passed the audition for Mother Abbess in the next big production of TSOM.

Stockard Channing

Aug 30, 2014 — 11:18:05 PM

Agreed, RJM. Good thing Namo hasn't gotten to this thread; he's too busy spreading criticism and negativity on every other one, though. I love Stockard Channing. Hopefully this will settle (why did she go out in public before it did, I wonder?). Meg Ryan's did. (Or else she had that bad job she had about 5-10 yrs ago corrected since then.)

GIRLS Star Allison Williams To Play Peter Pan In NBC Production

Jul 30, 2014 — 10:24:32 PM

Not my first choice or even first consideration for the role, but actually, it could work out better for her, and for NBC. NBC took a lot of flack for the fact that Underwood could certainly sing, but wasn't directed well to act. This way, they get a mid-level actress--who CAN act and CAN sing (bonus), and get bigger stars to cameo for the rest. Like, Christopher Walken as Capt. Hook, who has already been announced. Tiger Lilly and Wendy will probably be the marketable ones aside him. There w...

First look at Elsa in Once Upon a Time

Jul 18, 2014 — 1:23:49 AM

Peeps, relax. These shots are not about "production values," they are real-life candids. They need a model of the wardrobe so they can dress it up ("CGI the frick out of it") as necessary to make it look all shiny and cool, just like they do with most other stuff on that show. I'm sure it will look dazzling in post.
