Nice touch recognizing the connection between Divine's dress in Pink Flamingos and Edna's, Mateo.

Yeah, I'd like to see a Motormouth doll not because I'd buy it but because everyone loves a strong black woman.

This is nowhere close to the caliber of SWEENEY, CHICAGO, or CABARET but the revival of ROCKY HORROR compared to the original production (granted I couldn't have seen the original) I would say topped it.

I think Godspell is too "out there" to work for film. I own the movie and enjoy some of the performances but I'd compare it best to Hair: you have to experience it live, it's a theatrical event. In the original production, the cast hung out with the audience during intermission. You need an intermission between the acts in order to transition to the Passion and Resurrection. It's one of my favorite shows (first musical I ever saw at six years old when my church did it) but it's too avant-gard...

The Boys From Syracuse at CenterStage (Baltimore).

Thank you for mentioning this website! I'm a student and my family are clergy/members of armed forces. We might get up to New York more often now.

Once again....did the lesbian play birth and die with THE CHILDREN'S HOUR? What about The Five Lesbian Brothers theatre group and Lisa Kron?

It looks like the circus is coming to town.

Interesting for this particular show to have a happy opening. Sorry, I couldn't resist. Break a leg!

I pretty much agree with what's been said. Roberts and Clayburgh were quite good and Wilson was pretty good (you got to see him in his tighty-whiteys) but the set was the most interesting. The costumes were kind of dull.

From the reviews I read posted on the boards, nobody has mentioned Spinella's performance. Reading the lengthy interview that's up on the site made me question this. For those who have seen it, what can be said about Spinella in SPRING AWAKENING?

From wikipedia.com: Art is an application of human creativity that has some form of appreciative value, usually on the basis of aesthetic value or emotional impact. Much about art is controversial, including what specific cases can be considered such. You could always argue that art by its nature is entertaining. It is supposed to captivate its viewer(s).

I've always enjoyed Nathan Lane and Bernadette Peters.

I'm 95% sure Robin de Jesus was in a Radio Shack commercial.

Michael Arden as Peter - BARE There's something about him that allows him to play a vulnerable and troubled boy really well. Also vocally, he rocks!

SPRING AWAKENING has one. Surprise, surprise!

"Then my grandparents were, 'Why'd you have to pick this show?" That cracks me up. I feel like I know those people.

A lot that have been said already but... - TABOO - CABARET - ASSASSINS - BARE - CAROLINE, OR CHANGE - SWEENEY TODD - AVENUE Q Original Cast
