So technically speaking, if everyone here is correct, Smash could have either:A. Made a substantial change to its ending during final preview that never went anywhere.or B. They changed the ending literally yesterday, the day after JSquared saw it.Curious to see what’s up!

So, I’ll be the one to say it- is it not the responsibility of Gen Z R+J to reflect current, even if they may appear radical, Gen Z attitudes? The “Free Luigi” statement may be shocking but theatre, even more specifically this production, is the exact place to express such an attitude. This is an assassination- let’s leave the murder label alone for a second, we all know it’s murder and quite frankly that’s beside the point- that has united both left and right-wing people on the basis of clas...

Look I’m just gonna say it. Regardless of how you feel about people leaking information, Sweaty Oracle was on the money this entire time. Even the casting that didn’t happen seems to line up in the timeline for how long it actually took them to solidify and reveal a cast relative to opening.

But he sometimes attacks working professionals in a way that I think crosses the line."Pointing out problems with the system is never crossing the line."This right here is the appeal. I think there really is no point to leaking casting info early. But the fact that this platform not only exists, but thrives, should scare producers who choose to screw over the people who work for them. Think of th...

People are just too impatient and must know before everyone else. Like- get over yourselves."There is such a thing as being a well-connected figure in this industry who people have been privately leaking stuff to for years now…

The only coverage I’ve seen is a TikTok of the final number from @ashleyhufford and the reception from the commenters is…. Like, real bad.

I’m particularly excited to see what revisions have (most likely) been made now that there’s been an entire “Panda Express.” I feel like the death humor might be pretty sensitive, but the creative team has more time to find the footing and re-freeze the show into something much more grounded in its identity. I’m incredibly pumped!

Jordan Catalano said: "Has there ever been a case of a film version actually hurting the currently running show?"I don’t have an example to provide, but it’s worth mentioning that the TikTok crowd (probably the most crucial ticket sales, as they’ve now gotten to be older teenagers/twenty somethings) has been very vocal about their disapproval of the show’s plot. If the Broadway production doesn’t keep bringing in big names like Jordan Fisher, it’s likely that the (allegedly) very visible stor...

Capers said: "My very favorite piece of gaming hyperbole - shall we call it Massmining? - was this "interview":https://www.veryaligaming.com/chris-massimine-interview/I would be so embarassed in my next life if I realized I was like this in this one."It’s almost like he was banking entirely on musical theater/video game audiences not having enough knowledge of the other medium to actually call him out on his bull. The details here are embarrassing.

SeanD2 said: "copskid949 said: "I feel like a Ragtime revival in the BLM/Stronger Than Hate/Trump era has been long overdue, although I almost want it to be one of the live shows done for NBC or Fox."Like it or not, Ragtime is not likely to be produced anytime soon precisely due to the factors you reference. A show about the African American experience written from a gaze of white saviorism by white writers based on a white man's novel is not what we need right now. Theonlyway I think it coul...

I wasn't an MT, but I gathered a lot of information just by being in the same building as them.They pick their class based on types. I watched four classes of MTs come and go. There were always the "hot" ones, the fat ones, the minorities, etc. And they stayed that way for all four years. In other words, if they didn't envision you as a lead when you got in then you were never getting a lead. I imagine it's that way at many ...

It’s all incredibly opinion-based. Truthfully the best school for you will be the one that caters to your needs. Don’t feel like you have to live in Berea if you only want to go to Baldwin-Wallace, likewise don’t feel like you have to live in Pittsburgh if you want to go to CMU. Truthfully, the schools with those small acceptance rates are just winning the popularity contest. I’d recommend doing the research on musical theatre programs that may not be as well-known. Look which ones are going ...

I’ve recently gotten into the Danganronpa series of visual novels, and the first game (if cut down to its most basic elements) has at least some potential. You’d really need to streamline the story though, considering the plot would have to solve five or six different mysteries over the course of its runtime. I know there was a Japanese play adaptation, and perhaps it would work much better without singing, but the game’s soundtrack is enough to convince me there’s something there!NameGreg sa...

(Honestly when I listen to the album I often see it in the geometric animation style of South Park.)Steve Carrell or Patton Oswalt as Panch please? "Having just seen Little Miss Sunshine for the first time and knowing Finn also did a musical based on that, Steve Carrell as Panch sounds legitimately perfect. Also yeah what everyone else said.

That is all."While I was watching the show one of the Russians reminded me a lot of Malloy so honestly I’m all for it. plus the dude knows Russia damn well so likeeeeeeI guess my only real concern is that Beth Harmon seems like she doesn’t quite sing. She’s such a strong and fascinating character but the only time I really get “I’m gonna belt my face off” vibes from her is when she becomes this emancipated woman midway through. She’s just so in her head all the...

So just for clarification, are there any major themes for the cabaret that are shared between songs? And when you say “historical” do you mean major musicals, or musicals about historical events?
