Best Movie

Yellow Submarine.


Broadway tips for people used to the west end

My tip is avoid Times Square unless you have to get to TKTS for cheap tickets. It's beyond horrible  


In your opinion who is the greatest playwright of the 20th century?

Miller just shades Pinter. Close though


Singing Staff At Ellen's Stardust Diner Go Silent In Protest

Pippin said: "Update: Mass firings happened Tuesday. 6 were fired that day. 4 were fired Wednesday. 2 were just fired about an hour ago today. More will be getting the axe. I work there, and it has been a war for the past 9 months. 

 

In a nutshell - corporate greed destroyed the heart and soul of that place, but NOT my friends. We are picketing. We are United. We were outside the restaurant today for 5 hours. 

 

We have


A Taste of Honey

After Eight said: "It's a worthwhile play, but I don't think either the staging or acting presented it to greatest advantage. As a result, the first act failed to register much; the second was tighter and better focused.

Does this piece translate across the pond? Steven Patrick Morrissey loves this play though


Pop stars you want to write a show

New John Lennon material would be incredible


Crucible Stage Door

Strange cats on 'ere reviewing stage doors. Anyone seen the show?

Directed by Ivo Van Hove with a cast including Whishaw, Okonedo and Hinds I was really interested in direction, performances and views of the play

How many people on these boards work in theatre?

I need a computer for work and so I don't work in the theatre as the laptop would light up the auditorium like a Christmas tree


Why do some view unknown actors as superior to celebrities ?

PThespian said: "Did you see Bruce Willis in Misery? Madonna is Speed the Plow? Julia Roberts in Three Days of Rain? Nicole Kidman in The Blue Room?

 

I promise you, had you seen any of the performances listed above, you would not be asking that question. Working in film or television is a completely different style of acting than stage acting is. Some people are good at both, some are not so good.

 

It would be like hiring an ortho


Questions for Roxy

Some of the best posts ever in this thread, well best in my BWW forum posting time. Really informative and some great insights from some long time theatre watchers.

But also some of the worst. You guys are a nightmare sometimes.


Long Day's Journey into the Night vs Blackbird?

Blackbird. Bye bye


Jon Snow on the West End

You know nothing Jon Snow


If I could change just ONE word in a play or musical

The Caretaker, Aston's monologoue. The pause before the last sentence. Always played as four seconds when it is at least a five second pause.


SHE LOVES ME revival design's (first) title treatment

Yeah, yeah, yeah


Plays for 20-somethings

Definitely go for something nice and light. Shakespeare did some comedies, have you tried Titus Andronicus?


Mainstream artists that you think could write a good musical

Andrew Lloyd Webber? Surely, law of averages states, if he keeps trying eventually he will write a decent musical


Therese Raquin or Old Times

Charles III


Diversity on Broadway

At least the leading white actor of his age no longer blacks up for Othello, that's progress
