Patricia Morison, Original Kiss Me, Kate Star, Dies at 103

If they don’t dim the lights for Ms. Morison, they lose all credibility.
Ragtime reunion concert

Not sure if this is common knowledge, but at her caberet show tonight at NJPAC with Jason Daniely, Marin Mazzie mentioned that a 20th anniversary Ragtime reunion concert would be happening later this year.

By the way, their show was amazing!

Fun place to grab dinner?

I always recommend Trattoria Trecolori. Fantastic food at very reasonable prices. W47th.
MY FAIR LADY (2018) Previews

I saw yesterday’s matinee and I loved every minute of it, though I must admit to being predisposed in Ambrose’s favor. Would love to see this launch her as a Broadway leading lady on a regular basis.
Most enthusiastic audience you have experienced?

Usher’s opening night in Chicago.

The first audience appreciation performance of Book of Mormon, which was also Josh Gad’s last performance.

Dave Malloy in Great Comet.

Glenn Close in the revival of Sunset Boulevard.

patti at the grammy's

I thought they were both fantastic! Should we go ahead and schedule Platt for a revival of Company in 2028?
Off topic - Chicago (city) information

I’m heading to Chicago this Friday, and I got an incredible rate at the Palmer House, in the Loop. Seeing Beautiful, going to a Bulls game, probably will also see another show. Can’t wait.
Stars who deserve a Kennedy Center Honor

Cher is the most egregious omission. Ron Howard also deserves it.
Songs for alto/tenor girls??

Think about Nobody Does It Like Me, from Seesaw.
Dear Evan Hansen - Cancellation Line/Lottery/Ticketing Questions

We arrived at the theater @ 3:45pm today, were 1st in line for cancellations, and got 7th row center for $199 each.
METEOR SHOWER Previews

***SPOILER ALERT ***

How does Schumer’s character know when & where the meteor will strike?

Which recording artists would you like to come to broadway?

Kelly Clarkson in Annie Get Your Gun. 


Kennedy Center Honorees 2017

The criteria for the Kennedy Center is contribution to American culture. You can argue there are/were better rappers, but his endurance as an actor/host mitigate in his favor. That said, I agree he's a little young. In my opinion, Lionel Ritchie is the weak link in this group. 


Will we see a MAME revival soon?

I think Keakowski is the right actress for Mame, and I'd love to see Alison Janney as her Vera. 


Kennedy Center Honorees 2017

I think Lionel Ritchie is the weak link in that group.  For the life of me, I can't understand how Cher hasn't been honored yet.


Eliza? - My Fair Lady Revival 2018

If anyone needs further proof Ambrose's singing chops...

Theater district restaurant suggestions?

I always recommend Trattoria Trecolori, on W47th. Great food at very reasonable prices. Gone there several times with different groups, and all have been impressed. 


Dream: Agnes of God

Martha: Joan Allen

Miriam: Kathy Bates

Agnes: Emily Skeggs


Best, Best Musical Tony Losers??

Light in the Piazza, Spelling Bee, and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels were all better than Spamalot. 


Mame Revival (In my dreams)

BrodyFosse123 said: "Ebersole has already played Mame.  Back in 1999 at the Papermill Playhouse.  Kelly Bishop was her Vera."

While Kelly Bishop was fantastic, Ebersole was underwhelming.
