This doesn't make any sense thematically. If someone wants to put this group together in a cheap show, I'm sure they can find other options.


Civil Rights Lawsuit Hits Broadway's Wicked Over Bias

The folks posting pictures of him for laughs / commenting on his physical appearance are being super gross. Also, don't focus on physical appearance if you want to insist someone is crazy for thinking you're judging them on physical appearance...


Analysis of Plays vs Musicals: "Plays Are Not Taking Over Broadway. Except That They Are."

Hey everyone! I want to share an analysis I did of how plays are doing business wise recently compared to the past. Essentially, while the number of plays is not very different historically, they are taking more and more of the top gross positions, as well as some of the largest theatres (Winter Garden for instance).

Personally, I am deeply concerned about the economics of new musicals. The risk/reward is increasingly not in favor of new musicals and I don't see a way out of it - they are structurally more expensive both in the upfront capital and in the weekly costs, but end up with similar ticket prices to plays, which can recoup in a couple of months (See Giant).

KIMBERLY AKIMBO Reviews

EDSOSLO858 said: "I assumed the show was closing on March 10 after Victoria hinted at the number 80 on her Instagram on December 30 (and before the closing notice was formally posted)."

You said "I hear it’s closing that day and will be publicly announced sometime this next week or two."

Did you "hear" or did you "assume" it? Those are very different meanings and it's worrisome when people imply connections and


re: Updates on Little Mermaid??

The show, as is public knowledge, will start in Denver in Mid-2007. As far as I know, rehearshals will start in February.

As far as casting goes, I know that Sebastian has been cast. I cannot say who, except that it is not a big-name star, and is an unknown in the industry.

Because of this, I assume other principal roles have also been cast. I'm not familiar with who has received them however.
