Profile for BroadwayNYC2

a lot of people loved this but I…did not. I found the book rewrites to be amateurish, alongside most of the lead performances. 
 

And to clarify, this was always planning to restage for a proscenium on Broadway. 

Great show, ripe for a revival. Amazing score, the best of the 2000s movie to musicals. 

“Using "mental illness" as a pejorative is the least okay thing about this thread.”


Aww, anyway!

Mental illness alive and well. 

Right. The Almeida revival never had a stake in NY, despite what people with login access to this board said. Rights have been for this. 

This has been in the works for a minute so shocked it’s coming to fruition. 

“I'm a Scream fan too. The whole franchise should've died a natural death long time ago. They can cast Meryl Streep and those godawful movies would still be cringe. ”


Eh, I wouldn’t go that far. I’ve enjoyed every installment. I just didn’t like her. 

I’m a huge Scream fan but her acting left…a lot to be desired in my eyes. I often cringed when she was on screen. 
 

I thought she faired better in In The Heights so we shall see. 

No

West end is adding an intermission which I assume they’ll do here. I’ve always thought this is 15 minutes too long, but I’ve also been multiple drinks in when I saw it. 

I was not a fan at all of the original production, but I truly adored the West End revival. Would be great to see it again. 

I’m quite the sucker for this show, so looking forward to catching it. Not a fan of the Adelphi however 

I’m so bored, hire another person. 

I wanted to love this but I despised it in DC. Probably my least favorite thing I’ve seen in the last few years. Give me a glass of wine and Ana Gasteyer may be enough to get me there last minute 

“At 70, you can rule out Richard Kind from playing Max again. He played the role when he was about 49-50 so he was capable of handling the physical aspects of the show. ”


Not now grandpa lets get you to bed. 

Then don’t see it….

Curious how this will sell, I don’t foresee this being the same must-see Mary for a lot of people (I’m excited!), but I imagine this will more than keep the lights on for winter. 

I originally read this as Urie playing Mary post-Jinkx, which would be a hoot as well 

Cecily Strong would be my choice. 

Escola has said they would love for Tituss Burgess to take over. And I’m sure Jinx Monsoon has to be a leading choice.
