THE LOST BOYS Original Broadway Cast Recording Thread

Jun 26, 2026 — 4:23:39 PM

If I recall from seeing it in April, he's double-speaking "queer" the way his mom cluelessly said it earlier. (she's an 80s mom; the show is set well before the wide reclaiming of it) Just a guess. I wouldn't say he's coming out; it's more like telegraphing him figuring it out.

2025-2026 Kinky Boots Tour - Cast Updates

Jun 21, 2026 — 2:06:24 AM

Saw it today in Chicago. In better shape than expected. Were the child actors removed for budgetary reasons? Was that a Stage 42 development? Also removed the oft-repeated “and those who’ve yet to make up their minds!” line. (edit: looked it up; changes WERE made by Harvey F for the move off-Broadway)

Not sure when, but gonna keep an eye on HotTix and catch a performance at some point before 8/9. (Offerman is scheduled to be out of a few shows, so gonna try and avoid those.)

What a strange, strange thing to be discussing online.

Reimagined THE FANTASTICKS will open on Broadway this fall

HenryTDobson said: "Sorry if this a dumb question..... could the score be eligible for best new score next year since it hasn't been on Broadway yet?"I think in the past when something is so known and commonly produced, it sometimes ends up being a "revival" even if never on B'way before.

Has Anyone Caught the HEATED RIVALRY Parody Musical?

May 27, 2026 — 4:32:45 PM

Just like the guy hosting SNL, it all seems soooo fast. (SNL gig was only a couple of months after hitting the public eye) This phenomenon is only 6-ish months in, and we already have a legit commercial launch of a parody musical. Wish things could percolate a bit more before becoming so all-encompassing.

CHESS Sets June 21 Closing

Long term sales for Lea M’s replacement must have looked bleak. Really wish they could’ve filmed this… The last filmed version has such terrible audio which is a shame.

Is there a discount code for this? I thought I had one from a mailer but looks like it expired.

Meryl Streep considering return to Broadway with Martin Short

Apr 23, 2026 — 4:05:58 PM

Would love to see them as Mary and Mary's Husband. And with absolutely zero acknowledgment they're 30-40 yrs older than the rest of the characters/cast. (insane and will never happen... can you imagine the ticket prices?)

CATS: THE JELLICLE BALL Previews

Apr 5, 2026 — 12:08:33 AM

Tonight's (Sat) evening show's judges were Trammell Tillman (Severance) and Jelani Alladin.Energy was amazing... hate hearing the matinee crowd was a dud. :-(House right Box F 1-3 seats were a blast! Might not have liked them as much with a traditionally staged show or non-musical, but for this they were epic; felt right in the middle but also kinda "peeking in." Was cool, and a bonus was they're well priced.
