Count me as another vote for "The I Love You Song" from Spelling Bee.

The "I Love You Song" from 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee would be my vote

Cincinnati announces this evening and it looks like Mean Girls will be one of the shows.Tee Boyich is out doing press and posted pics from Cincinnati last night on her Instagram story. There was also a tease for the announcement that said something like "the princesses in your family will be excited" so I'm assuming that's going to be Anastasia or Frozen.

Louisville announced today:Dear Evan HansenThe Band's VisitJesus Christ SuperstarMiss SaigonAnastasiaCome From AwayThe Lion King (as a season option) Cincinnati hasn't announced yet, but there's usually a decent amount of overlap. They have Dear Evan Hansen and Miss Saigon this season, so I'm guessing Anastasia along with Come From Away and/or The Band's Visit will be a part of the 2019-20 season at the Aronoff.

Of the shows I've seen, my order would be:1. Beauty and the Beast 2. The Lion King3. Newsies4. Mary Poppins5. Aladdin6. The Little Mermaid

Saw it in Cincinnati this past weekend and I have to echo a lot of gleek's comments. It is a very strong production overall. I thought Desi's voice was great and "She Used to Be Mine" gave me chills. The crowd I was with went crazy for Jeremy Morse as Ogie; so much so that he had to get the cue for the button to "Never Getting Rid of Me" a couple of times. We thought about doing the stage door since we enjoyed the show so much, but the area was so packed we decided to head on home.

Had a subscription in Cincinnati for six or seven years, then didn't renew after a so-so past couple of years; prices kept creeping up, but quality of shows didn't warrant the price tag. I guess a lot of people did the same because the lineup for this year looks pretty solid.

I saw the tour twice last year over, in the fall in Cincinnati and shortly before Christmas in Richmond, KY. I saw the show several years ago on Broadway as well and, like others have said, the sets and costumes are very scaled down, especially the village and Belle's home. I thought Emily Behny did a very solid job as Belle and had a nice richness to her voice. The Beast was played more as a brattish child than a tortured soul, but the kids seemed to love it. Overall, it was worth seeing and...

Found out this week that one of the groups at school is taking a trip to NYC in November. Being the dedicated teacher I am, I happily volunteered to chaperone. So I'll be getting a four day stay in NYC with the hotel room, transportation, and some meals paid for. I can't wait!

My wife and I stayed at the Milford Plaza last April when we were there and thought it was more than suitable for our needs. We're talking about going back later this summer and we'll probably stay there again.

I think we've all been waiting for a musical featuring the Debbie Gibson songbook. "Out of the Blue, "Shake Your Love," and "Only in My Dreams" were made for the stage!

I know it's going to be the second show in Louisville's 2007-08 season.

I agree, but I think Phantom will draw just because of the name. I liked Wedding Singer when I saw it in NYC, so I'm anxious to see what the tour performance looks like. Honestly though, I'll probably skip Camelot.

Camelot, Wedding Singer, Phantom of the Opera, Sweeney Todd, and Avenue Q. Looks like a solid season overall with some shows for the die hard theater lovers as well as some that should have some more mainstream appeal.

Saw the Saturday afternoon performance of "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee" this afternoon in Louisville. It was easily the best show of the season. The sets were simple and effective, but a show like Spelling Bee, embraces its' simplicity. The entire cast did a great job and the laughs came in abundance. I thought the three female spellers easily stole the show though. Sarah Stiles may have been my favorite of the spellers as Logainne. She had a charisma and energy that just seeme...

I saw the tour in Louisville and was very surprised at how good it was. The performers were obviously enjoying themselves and the music was so infectous.

Didn't Saved by the Bell use this plot? Oh, wait, that was Kelly's grandfather owned a resort and developers were trying to take it over. Eh, close enough.

Looks like a logo you'd see for toothpaste or something in the 1950s. Maybe that's what the producers are going for, but I'd give it a big thumbs down.

I had partial view at the Gershwin and it was pretty darn nice.
