"Hiding Place," BwayTheater11? I only made this name so that I could defend BS posts like this. I don't feel the need to post on 276 threads about who should be the next Penny Pingleton. I have better things to do.Talk about hiding... I'm sure your mamma didn't name you "BwayTheater11" when you arrived on this planet. Care to share a more specific moniker?Paul

I was quoting Mr. Shaiman with the word unfactual. I should have put it in quotes. As for your other comments, you're missing the point. And Orfeh.com, mamamiasammy? Who's got the time?!Don't you all see how childish and ridiculous this board is? Look at how these discussions spin out of control. Shaiman, I'm just emailing you next time. Have fun with your teenage fans.Paul

Fine. Just avoid words like "infactual" when describing my site. At what point the McKean deal was at when the story went up is up for a lot of discussion, but it's pointless. I had a solid source and it wound up being true. And the original story did NOT say anything untrue. Sure we could have written two or three other stories about people in talks for the role, but I knew McKean was your man.Broadway.com adheres to and spreads the love of theater 100% of the time. Writing an excited, factu...

Marc,Can you please document, say, five unfactual reports from Broadway.com in the last month that you've had to clarify on here? Unfactual is the key word.McKean was in talks, Jack O'Brien meeting or not. So that one doesn't count.P.S. I'm allergic to group hugs with anonymous people!Paul

Craig,If you're so worried about information being properly released, maybe you shouldn't be working for a website that encourages people to spit out any piece of knowledge they know, confirmed or not.Just a thought.Paul

Uh huh. Keep saying that.

Hey.Putting my two cents in here. Huge Orfeh fan from "Fascinating Rhythm" days on... She's also been a lot of fun when I've hung out with her at parties. Anyway, BOJon, you should definitely check out her AC show. It's a lot of fun and she gets to sing a bunch of songs that she SHOULD be singing on Broadway. No "Evita," unfortunately. But maybe she'll get to do that one a little closer to home I agree--she'd be amazing.More info:http://www.broadway.com/template_1.asp?CI=33674&CT=49Paul

Thanks for noticing, AlDente...January 27:http://www.broadway.com/template_1.asp?CI=33662&CT=38Paul

Hey lilhead,You just broke the law on Craig & Co's behalf.

What's the point of starting the same thread on both here and All That Chat? It seems so random to me. Can't you at least reword a little?!

Dolly, you're anti-movie? That's the most ludicrous thing I've EVER read on here..and that's saying quite a lot.Craig, I believe there was talk of a hip-hop "Bye Bye Birdie." But will it ever happen? I doubt it.Paul

Okay... MAYBE you're onto something, but we'll have to see. Also--weren't there some films in the '50s concerning Hollywood stars interacting with regular folk? Quite a bit, I believe.

Hi Craig.First off, happy holidays."Tad Hamilton" is about a girl who enters a contest to meet a movie star, goes on a date with him and then has her life turned around when he shows up on her doorstep a while later wanting to REALLY date her, to the chagrin of her boyfriend. How is that a contemporizing of "Bye Bye Birdie"? Because it involves a regular girl who meets a star? Isn't that a bit of a stretch? :)Since it's directed by the guy who made the first "Legally Blonde," I have high hope...

I guess you're right. This is pointless. Back to work.

Not trying to fight with you, "BwayTheatre11." Just want you to think twice before you make flip comments.

I'll go back to my site if you'll go back to yours.

I know the whole story, "BwayTheatre 11." I'm well aware of your antics.

Broadwayguy2, I dare you to find another website that shows off Broadway stars in a better light. Imagine if the film industry was covered in the way that "fans" on these message boards would seem to like Broadway covered... Imagine if we never saw photos of Tom Cruise or Julia Roberts out and about... if we only had stills from their films or airbrushed headshots to go by... Kind of stale, no? The images on Broadway.com are professional event photographs that show what the stars of the stage...
