Liza memoir and promotion tour

I’d like to see her wear a new top.

It will happen.  Liza is not a flake .  Maybe you had bad luck., but it is not normally the case with her.  Plus she is doing the tv morning show rounds at the time .  Would love to see her on Watch What Happens Live.  But please put Feinstein behind the bar .. in a mute appearance. 🤞

I love me some people going crazy over a Liza event. . Hilarious. It is true that going to downtown Los Angeles can be a nightmare for most people. I guess it all depends on where you’re coming from. I even tried public transportation about two or three years ago when Secret Garden was playing. We were mugged. So I’ll never do that again. I usually now only go if someone else is going and is willing to give me a ride. The theater is indeed old and very uncomfortable. But if t

the tour is non-equity and produced by APEX.

Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 12/28/25

It was their second highest grossing week since they opened. The show has always relied (sometimes heavily) on discounting to achieve its results. Luckily, it is in a big theatre, because it has grossed well even with lots of discounted seats.

a holiday week, it still sold a lot of discounted tickets. I find it int

It was a bad show. It happens. I hope they don’t try to make it like it was all the Charlie Kirk thing because it wasn’t. It was just a horrid show. Her big mouth didn’t help any either. And she could’ve said so much to correct it a little and she didn’t. So that part of it’s on her.  
I can imagine after the horrendous reviews and the poor audience attendance that they all just hated going to work every day. It had to be very depressing to k

TodayTix already has them discounted.  I suspect the discount will be bigger closer to the dates.  Pathetic advance sales.

This one is a turkey. No need to even go into detail. The audience was literally grumbling. This will join the list of Moose Murderers and Into The Light. Catch it while you can if you want to be able to say you were there.  


What is Andy Karl doing next?

CarlosAlberto said: "This is all so sad but true.

The New York Post's Page Six reported this in May 2024.

Orfeh visited Karl in Australia in February of 2024, and everything seemed fine, but just before she was ready to head back to the States, he informed her that he was leaving her for Elise McCann.

Broadway star Andy Karl already ‘swanning’ about NYC with ‘new woman’ after ending marriage with Orfeh just ‘weeks’ ago - May 27, 2024

So he f'd around on her?  Are we boycotting?  Is Sutton leading a revolt?

Prince Faggot- Drunk Shakespeare
 Aug 21 2025, 05:20:39 PM

I have to be in the city the week of September 15.  I have a entire week open with nothing to see.  I have seen everything left running from the previous season.  Might return to Death Becomes Her.  ART does not seem to have performances that week or are not selling them.  I am considering these two off broadway options. Except for another thread that went off the rails I have not been able to find anything with a consensus on these two peices.  Opinions anyone?


How Bad Will the Kennedy Center Honors Be
 Aug 14 2025, 03:35:22 PM

I think the accepting part is usually done before the announcement.  Bu with tthe orange turd, who knows.  I wont be watching.  But we have to be careful.. the turd could use our outrage to his advantage.  Kennedy Center is usually aired in December when people are not watching that mutch tv.  I would hate for him to turn it into a ratings winner with his cult followers.

Jarethan said: "I guess that I have to be a contrarian. I thought this was thoroughly mediocre from start to finish. I think there were three reasons this did good business: Neil Simon, when he was still relevant; Marvin Hamlisch; and Lucille Ball. I say Lucille because people saw Lucie grow up and, despite no real credentials, she sold tickets. I imagine Richard Klein sold tickets…he was the best thing about this show. Lucie was also very good. But it was just tired, would be

Sutton Ross said: "Blow Gabriel said: "Patti in Gypsy has to be the most overrated performance in Broadway history. Patti’s whole shtick is mugging and belting high notes. No wonder she loved Nicole in Sunset. I soured on that woman years ago when I saw her in concert and she was boring as $hit. She was Christine Ebersole’s maid in War Paint. She was MiaFarrow’s maid in The Roommate. Shes way more exciting off the stage than on it, which is a criticism she’s faced throughout her career. Everytime she popped up on the stage in War Paint, I thought “oh you’re still with us”? The writers CLEARLY didn’t know what to do with her and just wanted to work with the fabulous Christine. Last weeks episode of And Just Like That…sure enough, Patti was dreadful. I can’t wait til we get SUTTON GYPSY to blow Patti out of the water yet again, just like she did with Anything Goes."

"

What a bitter and bitchy response.  Sutton; you have displayed some true character issues on this board.  Any excuse to rage; you take it.  So unpleasant.  Sorry life is so rough for you.

Binau,

I very much enjoyed reading your perspective on this all through out. You are one of very few people that I go out of my way to see what they have written. I will just add that the whole affair seemed tired from the get go. From the day they released the presentation of the overture and it sounded so thin. To Audras interviews on tv where everything came out so pre calculated and disingenuous. I am a fan of Gavin's.. but I really don't need

RUMOR: Cynthia Erivo-lead Jesus Christ Superstar at Hollywood Bowl to be Broadcast on TV???

inception said: "Here's a serious question:

Has anyone here attended shows at both the Hollywood Bowl (seating capacity according to Google of 17.5K - so comparable to a sports arena but outside) and at St Louis's Muny (seating capacity according to Google of 11K).

How did the experiences compare? I would imagine it is much more humid in St Louis.

Ms Erivo has a concert at Chicago's Ravinia Festival later in August, and out of curiosity I
