I managed to catch the first preview of Love, Inc at Norfolk's beautiful Roper Theatre tonight. It's beginning a three week run this Saturday. The set was effective...the only exception of that would be when a scene change left one of the walls slowly rolling toward center stage where it collided with a chair. The moment, however was almost cool as I found myself silently rooting for the escaping wall. The songs were catchy and although I'd never heard them before, I found myself tapping my f...

there was an episode where Brian Sang a song from Pirates of Penzance the episode where they can't figure out what Meg's age is Lois sings You are Sixteen going on Seventeen

for those of you who are saying rent and wicked....Keep in mind we are going for WORST not most ovverrated for the wrong reasons. Just because it's not nearly as good as people generally think it is does not make it inherently bad....nor does it make people classier, more theatre savvy, or smarter to lower your opinion of the show based on someone else's opinions. However misguided they may be. Not to neccesarily accuse you personally...I'm speaking in generalities. (it's been bugging me for ...

I don't live in NY so I don't get any of those channels.

...Idina Menzel is ok. She's not awful, she's not some sort of worshippable being. ANGELA LANSBURY on the other hand. I care. She's awesome.

Helen Keller's first word was water.

I've always wished that Mayzie in Seussical would come right otu and sing T*ts and A*s from Chorus Line

I stand with allshowsrock in FULL AGREEMENT

Some suggestions: * The ability to put the shows in order * A section for shows you want to see and for shows you are planning on seeing soon. * A section for playbills * A chat area.

from what I've heard, most broadway shows have walls in some back hallway that when celebrities visit, they sign walls. here's one off the top of my head

I love it....If you're thinking of another b'way application I'm still interested in one for playbill collectors!

I like wicked. In this case, when wicked is made into a movie, I want it to be solely based on Gregory Maguire's book with no musical theatre aspects involved at all. To me, that is the way things are meant to be. I don't want to see a show like wicked destroyed by the world of film.

ok. Am I the only one who thinks that this Idina Kristin thing may not be true. By all means it MAY be true, but it seems that people are stating speculation as fact. the idea that they beefed up Kristin's part because she is more popular than idina is flat false. Kristin's part was beefed up in the VERY beginning. Before Idina was even around to be popular or unpopular. Back when the show was in development and Elphaba was being played by Shoshana Bean. and the idea that two Broadway vocalis...

yaaay!

....I wish I'd made it here in time to get in on this argument with Georgie here....I'm all for starting a new thread about it!

I agree. We can bash the legitimacy of the Color Purple where at least the characters are SINGING. Or we can all talk about the internal Monologue singing of Totally ******.

I just went and saw it. i enjoyed it.

It needs to happen....soon!

The most upsetting thing is that the commercial is too short for me to look at each of the children and go "that one is Marcy Parks"

....the producers deserve spotty reliability for stunt casting. if you want the job done well and reliably, call in a professional, If you want to bring in massive numbers of people who will only leave when they find that the leading lady is out, cast a celebrity.
