I haven't posted on BWW in quite some time, but I try to check in on this site from time to time. Reading this thread has made me extremely happy and I feel like I have to chime in. It warms my heart to see many revered posters of days gone by like Michael Bennett share their exhilarating and heartfelt comments about the much anticipated Hello! Dolly revival. It's been wonderful for me to hear about the sheer joy of this production and what it means to so many of my fellow lovers of theater. ...

I believe Kristin changes her setlist slightly at each concert. These songs may not be in the exact order, but I think this is the setlist from the Atlanta concert I attended last Friday: Should I Be Sweet / Maybe This Time / Taylor, the Latte Boy / Moon River / Fathers and Daughters / Dance 10, Looks 3 (Oklahoma Style) / Popular / For Good / Bring Him Home / Upon This Rock / Little Sparrow / I Could Have Danced All Night / Somewhere Over the Rainbow / I Was Here / Encore: Smile

Looking forward to seeing Kristin tonight!!

love, Love, LOVE it! Joyous and brilliant - let's hope that the original choreography is replicated in the upcoming revival of PP.

This made me smile. I agree that this choreography is amazing and should be replicated in the upcoming revival of PP.

Wasn't Anne Hathaway attached to this potential revival of 'Promise, Promises'? Didn't she do a reading last year with Sean Hayes??

I have tickets to this show in May. Liz Callaway will be in the cast: http://www.playbill.com/news/article/125950.html

As a patron of Theatre of the Stars in Atlanta for many years, I was dismayed to read this news. Season ticket holders were alerted recently that the upcoming Tarzan production would be cancelled (due to production costs, lagging economy, lackluster sales from the previous production...)and that another show would be scheduled in its place later in 2009. I just spoke with an authority at TOTS who is aware of the Playbill article in question. Though not much detail can be provided for legal re...

What great news! I'd love to see a revival of Promises, Promises on Broadway. The Bacharach / David score is outstanding. I'd love to hear 'Knowing When to Leave','Half as Big as Life', 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again' and 'Promises, Promises' with a great big, brass - heavy orchestra. "Turkey Lurkey Time" should be a hoot! Swing those arms, ladies!

Best: Xanadu. I also thought Gypsy, SITPWG, and South Pacific had strong performances. Worst: Passing Strange (WTF?) This performance didn't make me want to rush out and buy a ticket at all). Faith Prince's performance from A Catered Affair was painful - bless her heart.

Sounds like fun!

I'd love to see a Broadway revival of Promises, Promises. I love the Bacharach / David score in general. "Turkey Lurkey Time" is a fun song and a great dance number. "Knowing When to Leave", "I'll Never Fall in Love Again" and "Promises Promises" are much stronger songs overall. Is Promises Promises dated? Perhaps - but if The Pajama Game can sell out a limited run, so can this show if it is staged and cast properly.

Welcome back, Margo!

As Roberta and Donnie once sang: 'Where is the love You said you'd give to me soon as you were free will it ever be Where is the love? You told me that you didn't love him, and you were gonna say goodbye but if you really didn't mean it, why did you have to lie'?

I'll be seeing this production. It looks like a great cast. I don't know many more times Jennifer will be reprising 'Effie' in an actual production of Dreamgirls. Catch it while you can!

Paris - Additional casting for Theatre of the Stars summer presentation of Dreamgirls has not been finalized / announced, yet.

Rest in peace, Kitty.

Megan would be a hoot!
