Something doesn't need to run for years and years to be successful. If it affected people in some way or another, it succeeded its goal. Just because a show runs for 10 years doesn't make it better than a show that ran a month. Tommy is a wonderful and important piece of theater, Mamma Mia is an uninspired cashcow. (IMHO)

2 of my friends, who are virtually unknown, have been called in for work sessions. It seems they actually are going to cast an unknown (the way it should be, since it made Barbra such a star).

Her voice is so shaky and simply not strong. She is far too old for Eponine and doesn't have the vulnerability to play Fantine, never mind the vocal chops. I really hope she is not in the film.

DId they want Cher for Donna or Tanya? Personally I think she would've been better suited to play Tanya. Christine Baranski was great, though.

I wholeheartedly loved this production.

^ I don't know, The Fix has one of the most unmemorable scores I have ever heard (can't recall a single tune) and it doesn't really make sense that it's that easy to make someone President (I'm sure it's not meant to be taken seriously, but it doesn't present itself as a satire). It tried to be serious which doesn't work. To me, this show is simply unfixable.

I didn't get a chance to see this live and was extremely excited to see it on HBO. I was thoroughly underwelmed. The show had hardly anything to do with her addiction struggles or even the reasons behind them. I was constantly waiting for her to tell a crazy story involving her addiction and it never happened. Sure it was funny, just not what it could have been...

Whatever happened to "Rebecca"?

it's breaking news on playbill.com... http://www.playbill.com/news/article/144126-Philip-Seymour-Hoffman-Will-Return-to-Broadway-in-Death-of-a-Salesman EXCITED!!!!!

so will this have blanche's monologue about her husband being gay? sorry if that's a stupid question haha

Those are 3 very big names (2 of them being Oscar winners). I don't see a reason why this production shouldn't be given an oppurtunity to open in New York.

Kyan Douglas at Spring Awakening Joe Torre at Spamalot (I used the urinal next to him...) NPH at Xanadu Bernadette Peters at Next to Normal Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes and Suri at Mary Poppins Jane Kaczmerick at Wicked

i forgot about that video of her singing breathe. She sounds fine, nothing special... but her acting is ATROCIOUS (at least in this video). The ad is horrible.

This past November, I met Bernadette Peters at Next to Normal and told her "You are my everything... MYFRIENDWASINANNIEGETYOURGUNWITHYOUANDYOUGUYSGETDINNERSOMETIMESYOUKNOW****THAT'SMYFRIEND!". Very embarassing, but she was very nice.

Very excited, but disappointed that Biel won't be doing this.

I think she is going to do Grey's until it ends or until she gets written off. Grey's is a very good gig and Broadway will be there for her when she is done filming. LOVE Sara Ramirez though, just throwing that out there.

I didn't hate Bernadette in the role, but I did think a lot of it seemed very phony. Desiree can be very phony at times, but it has to have heart at the root of the performance and that seemed to be missing. When she flubbed a line in Send in the Clowns I really did not mind and was touched by her performance at that point. Michael Bennett, I still love Elaine Stritch and her body of her work. I simply do not think that she is doing the job she was hired to do. Liasons dragged on for what see...

I am prefacing this by saying that I love A Little Night Music, Bernadette Peters and Elaine Stritch. I saw the show Friday night and was SO disappointed. I don't know what the hell people are saying (Michael Bennett, I am looking at you) but Elaine Stritch still did not know her lines. Liasons was overwelmingly long due to her lack of readiness to be on that stage. She does not know her lines and therefore should not be onstage. I understand that she is in her 80s and a legend but it is not ...

Anne Hathaway is NOT Nellie. She always has a quirky side in whatever she does and that wouldn't work for Nellie. Oh and I don't think she has the voice for Nellie. Reese or Scarlett would be great
