Meanwhile, you can also enjoy this conversation with the original Tobias, Ken Jennings.

Read the following today (12 July) on Blusky:Buddy had a friend of his wife’s go to Book of Mormon today. There’s a sequence where the lead character dreams he’s in hell. The lead actor threw in a “Hi Lindsay Graham!” during the matinee.

We were unable to see 1536 on our London visit - as by the time we knew when we were going to London, tickets are few and 1536 seemingly was the least expensive ticket! But, everyone I know that saw it raved and said it was brilliant. Transfer to St. Ann' Warehouse?(We saw Oh Mary with Catherine Tate, Operation Mincemeat (2d time), The Producers, Equus, the new adaptation of Cyrano and Arcadia).

Id put Wedding Singer, Big Deal and Applause on the list.

If Chicago signs Pink to play Velma for a few weeks, ticket prices and grosses could set records.Did Pink have a closing number prepared that got cut for time?

As Hargitay lost her mother at a young age and could have died herself, she will have a different (unique?) connection to the material. The list will be more for her and what she imagines her mother would have liked.

Just "new" musicals - because there have been some "new" revivals since 2020 such as The Music Man that must have recouped. On Edit - seems like The Music Man may not have recouped. Wow.

Is there a place for Mason Alexander Park?

There is a proshot of the new(ish) musical Stiletto which was in London in Spring 2025 at the small Charing Cross Theatre. Just posted to YouTube.I haven't watched and cannot vouch for its qualities. Theatreboard was mixed - liked the music, but not so much the book (which seems like so many musicals!) The "official" description from Charing Cross Theatre is:"Stiletto, the new musical with Music and Lyrics by three-time Grammy, Oscar and Golden Globe nominee Matthew Wilder (Disney’s Mulan) wi...

Hargitay is doing the show from May 26 to June 28. After that, someone knows, but it's not me.

https://www.instagram.com/p/DWfSPqTDXW7/A "big revival" he was assistant choreographer on - that had an out of town press performance - designs were in place - and minutes before the final callback for dance ensemble, the show was cancelled. should have read comments before posting - it was 2008 Brigadoon to be directed by Rob Ashford

Does The Hemingway Play count as a play with multiple actors playing the same person - since the conceit of the play has the different Hemingways interact with each other?

Apparently, some confusion in London where a person purporting to be a producer stated that filming would be allowed from seats. https://www.reddit.com/r/TheWestEnd/comments/1s37bhw/does_anybody_else_find_this_crazy/?share_id=XW1VKov8ANjSTA1pLUfcy&utm_content=1&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1But then just before show, front of house met and "no filming" was back in place. "No filming" signs out - ushers waving them around.

I thought this was about Hegseth actually barring sailors from singing on ship because it's not his version of what sailors do.Or, this was an announcement that the decades long delayed stage production of "Can't Stop The Music" was not happening.

Best Actor in a PlayI have seen neither. I will not see either. But, I forget who was complaining that the Board never discusses competition among male actors - this thread is for you!But based on Board comments, it sounds like this could be a very tight competition.
