Thanks for proving my point.

Ok, you're right, you win. In every thread that you have posted, or at least that i have seen, you are looking to start an arguement with someone. So you win. I dont want to argue with you. You can be mad or whatever, I'm not going to even take a stab at your age because you act like you are 13. I hope you have a nice night.

I was referring to the fact you said, and i'm just going to paraphrase, that it was fine that producers stunt cast, instead of doing things like they should. Auditions and all that fun stuff. I never attacked you, I was stating a fact that, because people like you accept these actions, people will continue to persue them.

I have noticed one thing that is commen throughout all of your threads. Its the fact that you take pleasure in, I'll try and keep the words simple, "bashing" other people. You are pulling what people would call an "Ad Hominem". You are attacking the person, not the issue. I dont have anything against you, and if you dont have something to say that pertains to the thread, then please. Shut up.

I'm sorry that you have something against me personally. I was just stating my opinion on a situation. Just cause you dont agree with it, dont attack me.

Well, I want to make it clear that I never once thought that this was the demise of broadway. But I stand by all my previous comments. And yes, ashlee simpson will ruin it, you're blind and def if you think otherwise.

And Myspace.

I'm not hacking at you or your credentials. I'm just saying that the comment you left supports people taking broadway away from raw talent, and pushes it towards sex appeal and names. As an actor, it is already hard enough to get parts, but to have someone that has never even been in theatre, or has very little experience in the lifestyle, get a huge role because they are famous it bull.

It because of people like you that we have this problem. You condone this whole process. Don't tell me I'm wrong for stating the problem, why don't we all try to fix it.

First and foremost, Bravo PitPro, secondly, most of you guys are missing the point still. I know that broadway takes money, but its no longer about talent. No one seemes to care if someone has talent or not, only if they have a big name. The name of "Broadway" has been soiled to the point that its not about theatre. You all know as well as I do that everyone will watch shows on broadway, there will always be a crowd, and productions will die out. Theatre is about the next new thing. New actor...

Thank you PitPro2004. Everyone else has missed the point. Broadway IS about money, thats the problem. I dont care one second about someones fanbase. Usher can dance up there all he wants, and he can do a great job. If he does, then thats great. I applaud him. What my point is, is the people that do work to reach the top, don't get the oppertunity to hit broadway. It is rediculous when all people want is that famous person on stage. It's also sad how many of you people that have posted up, are...

You are missing the point. Its no longer up and coming people haveing doors open. They are shutting off the world from the arts and making it that much harder to be discovered. If they only choose these rich and famous pop stars that have cameras all over them, then they bring in a different crowd of people. Its not about the show and the talent anymore, but the money and the sex appeal. Now broadway is exactly like hollywood. Thats a discrace to theatre.

Which is truely sad because if you are like me, I love theater. I dont care who is in the play if they are just amazing. But I do care if they didnt have to work to get there. There are thousands of people that want these parts in these productions, and they look for the biggest star they can instead of making one. Its sad that the fine arts world has fallen to the money as well.

I'm sure everyone has noticed by now that Usher is playing Billy Flynn on broadway. Congrats to Usher. But now Ashlee Simpson might be play the part of Roxie. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this just proves that broadway is no longer about the art of theatre, but the money thrown into it. I dont want to go to my favorite theatre and watch some pop star try and play the part of my favorite characters. I want to see unknown people that have worked their way up in the theatre world. Next thing you...

My male friend and I are going to be in a Mr. GQ competition and we want to sing. But we cannot think of a song to sing together. Any ideas?
