Constantine Maroulis for Jekyll & Hyde

Geez I just saw the show in Durham and the entire cast was amazing. Constantine transformed from Jekyll into Hyde right before our eyes. The audience gasped. He sang Hyde way different than Jekyll. Deborah has a powerful voice. I loved the show.

I just saw the show in Detroit last weekend. I made a point of not looking at any previous versions of this show before I went. I loved it. I think the entire cast is first rate. Loved how Constantine can transform back and forth from Jekyll to Hyde. His Hyde is demonic. I also think Deborah Cox makes a fine Lucy and she can sing her heart out. Teal Wicks is wonderful as the beautiful Emma. Yesterday, I watched some of the video available from the original production. This current production ...

Yeah just saw it. I was hoping for the BAT, but as long as they have a confirmed theater, it's all good.

I swear I saw that yesterday on the site, but I can't find it now. I may have gotten Newsies confused with Peter since it was also mentioned on the Peter site. I did a google search for it yesterday. I'm sorry for confusing the facts. Still, I am hoping for the BAT.

I saw that tweet, too. I looked at the Peter and the Starcatcher website and it says limited run on it. Tix through January, although that can change of course. Porgy and Bess at the Rodgers ends 9/23. Lewis Black has two weeks in October.

I was wondering about filling so many seats. The BAT is the smallest of the Nederlander and although, Peter and the Starcatcher is there now, my wish is that J & H would go there. I guess we'll know on Monday.

The other day, I was looking at the Nederlander Theaters site and Ghost was still listed for the Lunt. Just now, I checked again, and the Lunt says, "New Production to be announced soon." I think it's a good bet.

I bought tix for Detroit. It was the closest stop for me. Can't wait to see the show. Edit/changed my profile icon.

Not a stretch for Constantine at all. He's a nerd. I say that in a nice way. I hope the show comes to BW because I'm jonesing for a trip to NYC.

I'm only guessing here, but I bet Mitch goes back to being Lonny. I also am speculating that they will get a new Drew. Not sure who and not sure who would be Stacee, but they need to get some names in those roles.

He tweeted it was Sept 7th. " looks like my last show will be sept 7th and I will be off from 23rd to 29th of aug as well. @RockOfAges"

Please not Adam Lambert. He would not be believable in the role. I can't imagine anyone else playing the role, but soon, the Toronto version starts. Now there is going to be an Australian version. I'd like to see how the Drews take on the role. Who knows Constantine may extend. It's a great role.

Constantine tweeted this morning that he will be out for the 23rd and 24th coming up. All four performances. He's going out to the Sundance Film Festival to perform. Just in case anyone was making plans to go to see ROA with him. Of course, I think this is going to be the first time the new understudy will be in.

On a totally different topic.... Tom Lenk just announced that he is opening for Constantine next Wednesday night at the Highline Ballroom. The tix are only 20 bucks. Show starts at 8. I'm going! Yay!

They announced the winners finally. This was posted on facebook. Rock of Ages: After many weeks of deliberation (and partying, of course) we have selected the winners of the Extreme Carol Contest! 1st Place: Gavin Knox 2nd Place: Heather McNerney 3rd Place: Stephanie Dunbar! Congratulations!

Why so much hate? He's paid his dues. He's quite talented. Heck, he was nominated for a Tony. He loves Broadway and the Broadway community. He supports a lot of charities. He's a good guy who loves his family.

There are many more links. In fact, the entire front page of Broadway.com is ALL Constantine!!!

Here is another posting on Broadway.com

Okay!! It's official now! Broadway.com' Star of the Year! Here is his speech.
