| Profile: |
I am a producer of world class media (stage, film, TV, audio recording), and in addition I develop and produce original, indigenous talent in all areas of media production, in concert with production possibilities in major U.S. cities. In my spare time, I screw around on the Internet.
I used to post here as gvendo2005, but in turning over a new leaf with regard to my Internet persona, I felt a new account was needed. And... here I am!

LES MIS -> Radio City, SUPERSTAR Next? Mar 3 2026, 12:08:21 PM
Actually, the word I'm hearing on the street is that the reason ALW has begun a renewed push for the Regent's Park staging of JCS in Asia and the UK is that, although he's delighted with the sales and the press, he's a little tired of Jamie Lloyd getting nearly all of the credit for two out of three revitalizations. Apparently, digging this JCS out again is part expediency, part "you'll touch this over my dead body,"

Playwrights Horizons sued over discount for POC Dec 22 2025, 08:55:09 PM
Alex Kulak2 said: "I used to watch him on YouTube. He's a very talented musician, and some of his videos were pretty funny before he started trying to become the Ben Shapiro of Broadway. It's a shame he decided to throw that all away to become a provocateur."
Oh, it wasn't a sudden decision. He's always been an asshole with a veneer of funny. Ask anyone in the Jersey theater scene who's ever been around him for even a short time.

Magic on Broadway - Doomed? Nov 12 2025, 12:04:05 PM
raddersons said: "The Magic Show did run for four years, but from what I understand that is more a musical with magic (and a Stephen Schwartz score to boot). Then again you look at Merlin one year prior and that flopped big time."
Actually, Merlin came after The Magic Show, by about 7 years or so. Both starred Doug Henning, but the latter played to his strengths and let his magic accomplish what songs would typically do in a book musi

Broadway “opera house” Nov 10 2025, 04:06:23 PM
Given the thrust of most of the replies to this thread, it seems like the only way this would work would be if you picked the biggest successes of the Encores! series (like Chicago's level of production values) and ran those, because a concert setting with some light dressing (set or otherwise) is probably the easiest way to pull off an idea like this.

The only thing he said is he wanted to do it. However, after this announcement I don't think it'll happen any time soon, personally."

blaxx said: "I thought it was a recording of the Hollywood Bowl."
I have heard a bit about that. Apparently, there was an overdub session shortly after the run closed, and I can't imagine that would be for something archival. But release is up in the air. Hell, if I held my breath waiting for film of the JCS concert I really want to see, I'd turn blue...

JCS Teases Return on IG Nov 6 2025, 07:09:37 PM
It's one of three things, all of which I have heard rumored recently.
Rumor #1: An East Coast transfer of the Hollywood Bowl concert following the end of the Wicked: For Good press junket, for which only Lambert and Erivo are reportedly confirmed to remain. Madison Square Garden and an arena in Brooklyn have both allegedly been scouted for this possibility, with ALW naming the former in a recent interview. Likelihood: it could only be for a

Indie concept albums: are they taken seriously? Oct 26 2025, 09:01:01 AM
Fan123 said: "Speaking just as a fan and not as an industry expert, I used to get more excited by seeing big name performers attached to concept albums. However, as time has gone on, I've realised that the quality of names involved doesn't correlate to the quality of the show; generally the actors are just fulfilling a paid job, not necessarily endorsing or committing to the project beyond that (and fair enough)."
Case in point: Norm Lewis and the other peopl

Les Miz the Staged Concert at Radio City Oct 22 2025, 04:02:56 PM
darquegk said: "There's an archival video (maybe even a proshot) from Los Angeles in 1991 that went viral on theatre YouTube last week... I haven't watched it but it appears to be the original full Cameron Mackintosh staging."
You'll pardon me, but the credit for that staging belongs to John Caird and Trevor Nunn. Cam Mack is the cheap bitch who was tired of continuing royalty streams going anywhere other than his pocket.

Purple Rain Marquee is Up - Who is in it? Oct 20 2025, 03:28:59 PM
It's not firmly set yet, as one expects (even hopes) a huge rethink is in order, so a song list in show order is not published. However, there is a list of music credits at the back of the Playbill listing who wrote and published what, and per that list, the songs that appear in the show currently include (in alphabetical order):
17 Days Adore Baby I'm A Star Beautiful Ones, The* Bird, The* Computer Blue Condition of the
