I vote for Aladdin...with a beautiful Indian Aladdin and Jasmine and a wonderful tribute to Eastern culture and those great showstopping numbers as mentioned before. It's one of their most popular 90s movies and makes me just as excited to see it as when I heard they were bringing The Little Mermaid! Also, the songs from Hunchback are so beautiful. They could surprise everyone by doing a darker version of the show and not making it the usual Disney fare for once!! And Hercules, of course, wou...

that's so sad! i remember the first time i watched BWTA, when my 3rd grade ballet teacher told us to tune in and watch for ballet or dance related material and i fell in love with the show. it's a shame. A&E is like another MTV...no longer living up to it's name. ovation is a great channel. used to have it and watch it all the time

i agree with whoever said it's very much in the subtlety of the lyrics or the swell of the voice and/or orchestra. for different people i think different voices and lyrical moments can stir those passionate feelings and leave them panting for more. for some of us live theatre itself is erotic!! for me, personally, i think brian stokes mitchell's voice evokes so much passion and it always stirs me up! I love in the middle of "New Music" when he calls out for Sarah...with the orchestrations and...

ok, why end on "Totally F---ed" when you can't sing the last word?? Just a thought...

haha...they're just paying Hugh back for hosting

i just went to see GG last Wednesday and Christine and Mary were amazing! don't let the last performance scare you. you'll love the show...it's very moving...and dead on with the Beales

i think my heart will sink if Christine doesn't win...

Patrick Wilson and GG!! Yumm...

at least give laura one! that girl can sing.

Just to interject, I really liked the amount of dialogue and felt that it was well written and well done by the performers. I loved just listening to Chris Innvar talk, let alone sing! And about Act I, I think it sets up Lizzie's loneliness so well in conjunction with Audra's wonderful acting. She just hits home in the last scene with File and in singing "Old Maid". I had tears in my eyes. Gorgeous show!!

110 is absolutely gorgeous! Go see it now!

Just wanted to say that I got back from the show today and I am in LOVE with this show and it's stellar cast. Audra WAS Lizzie, she brought that part to life! I had tears in my eyes so many times during Act I because of her (well, probably b/c I love her so much too). Also, I thought Christopher Innvar was divine. He was like a suave Tennessee Ernie Ford...he played File so well. Loved the Currys as well. The orchestrations were beautiful, just so romantic...this musical reminded me so much o...

this thread is hilarious. yeah, those reviews are pretty basic and not very appealing. i don't know who would actually take time to watch them. they're not very valuable.

i am obsessed with this show and so glad to see that it's combining my two loves...Broadway and fashion!! that's too cute.

oh, I am soo excited to see it on the 21st. I've never seen Audra on stage and to see her in what is being described as such a beautiful production just gives me goosebumps!! I'm sure I'll fall even more in love with that voice of hers

I think that's why I bought a ticket for April 21st...8 days after 110 begins it's runs. I am HOPING that I will be seeing it soon enough that she will be there and not skip out. I am mainly seeing the show to see Audra, but alas, if she's not there, what are you gonna do? Does anyone know her attendance record for non-musical performances? Like "Raisin in the Sun" and the other Shakespeare play that she did (that escapes my memory right now)?

Sidjones...i second "How Glory Goes". It splendidly puts to music my own musings about heaven. I love Audra McDonald's rendition of it!! It's just a gorgeous song.

Went to a Saturday MATINEE two weeks ago. The lady held five tickets for my family b/c she told us the wrong time for the lotto. SOOO, it wasn't that busy. Not sure about Saturday night though. I doubt it will be hard.

I just saw Hairspray as well and was anyone else surprised that Ashley Parker Angel could dance so well?? I wasn't amazed at his acting or anything, but he really could move! Go Ashley!

I almost s*** my pants when I saw Audra M's name as an infamous "sick day" queen. I have been waiting and waiting to see her and just bought tix for "110..." for April 21st and am PRAYING that she'll be there. I guess I don't have much to worry about, considering that I'll be there a week after it opens, so she has to show up for previews! Please Audra, show up!! lol
