I am a huge fan of the show and I am gutted that I missed this opportunity. I am going to keep checking the board and the next time she is on......YOU CAN REST ASSURED I WILL BE THERE. I don't comment here very often but seeing this headline made me excited. Reading the reviews simply confirmed what I already knew. OK....... Two Chers for the brilliant Sharon Brown. Hip-Hip, Hooray! Wait.....do we even cheer in this way? How about...Heck yeah!!!! Love me some Sharon Brown.

Beyond The Binary with Turner RileyIs anyone headed out to see this show? I am excited about it. The Green Room 42 has announced a one-night-only event, Turner Riley: Beyond the Binary, Starring Turner Riley (NYC: Rathskeller, Tours: Camelot, Ragtime, Sound of Music) and featuring Marla Alpert (Tours: Jekyll and Hyde, Ragtime), Jarvis Derrell (VH1: Jarvis in the Elevator, NYC: Sunday Service, Creator of @shehashadit), Sabrina Fosse (NYC: The Shoebox, The Hello Girls), Cooper Howell (Frozen Li...

Oh she knows. She reads the boards daily and often times she calls me in the middle of the night asking me if I saw things. LOL, gotta love her. She is just looking out for her baby boy that decided to go into this impossible profession. She actually called and said "here is a thread that you can reply to" so I did.....Enjoy your day, and the calm before the storm. So many wonderful things opening in the next few months. Fingers crossed that I will actually get a chance to see some of them. W...

Would we really hear through your mic if you were peeing?! "Yes oh yes you would hear. And if by some miracle you didn't hear I WOULD HOPE YOU WOULD HEAR THE PERSON WASH THEIR HANDS. Lucky for us, we have not had these type of issues in our show, but there have been stories about mics being "open" at the wrong time and the audiences hearing things they maybe did not want to hear. I will admit, I find them hilarious when you catch them. Or when you are backstage and your cast mate runs over to...

So sorry you haven't received the correct answer as of yet. So way back in previews it was Captain Crunch (Cap'n Crunch) as well as a glass of wine. We learned that eating captain crunch made it very difficult to sing even though that was how the original story went. Yes, it is based on a true story...as is the majority of the show. So now, they simply use the wine. It wouldn't be so bad if we actually had time to drink water while we were offstage, however we are still SINGING, while changin...

This is a very interesting thread. I will try and keep my reply short because I don't want to get slammed for any errors I make while trying to type on my phone. Lol. Shuffle Along was a project that I worked on for years and in the end it made for one of the greatest experiences of my career so far. I am sure every cast member will have their own opinion about what happened or what went wrong etc. I just want to say a few things from my perspective. 1. I was part of the show for about a year...

This show has been on my radar for a while and now it is happening. I put it out in the universe that I wanna be a part of this or at least be able to enjoy it from the audience. Acapella music (if done well) can be pretty darn amazing... Lets see what happens....

Email me. Arbender.robinson@gmail.com. i have the score. My show shuffle along starts soon but o can send it to ya after

Audra was on, although she doesn't do wed or sat matinees. Billy was out, bur Arbender was on and was really great.ahh thanks so much Depaultheatrekid. Billy makes for some large shoes to fill. Glad to know that someone saw me in the show and said i was " really great" you just made my day Thanks...

I work in Theatre, Broadway mostly, actor. Well for the last 13 years or so it has been on Broadway. I come here from time to time to read whats going on. Not so much for the reviews but instead I love to read the commentary on topics, events and some performances. I truly find some of the arguments to be amusing, So I admit I come here at least once a week and scroll through.

Ah, I had a feeling this would happen once I heard the broadcast. I am the kid that used the term. Arbender Robinson. Indeed probably not the best choice of words. I just wanted to express my love of the audition process, my need to always audition for any and every project that interests me. that process seems to work for me and unlike many people that find the audition process to be stressful, I instead find such joy and pleasure in that process.

Very interesting question. Let me start by saying I have made most of my professional career by performing on Broadway and I still do so now. I also worked on Cruise Ships as well. IN the end, it all depend son what you want you career to be and how you want it to look. I liked cruise ship work because I got a chance to see some really cool places, I worked on my performance skill and i made a ton of money with no expenses. These were important to me because the option of being a starving art...

OK maybe i should not find this post to be funny but I do. I have been on Broadway many times and I also think each show will be my last. I remember being in my first Broadway Show (Hairspray) and thinking they would soon realize they hired the wrong guy and send me packing. That never happened thank goodness. I will say this: I am glad I never gave up even though I told myself many times over that I would never get to Broadway. In fact I had convinced myself that I never even wanted to try a...

Lucky for you that you are an alto. Try Johnny One Note. And when you sing the song be a little annoyed or duty so that you have a fun character singing the song. I posted cool audition songs all the time on my audition blog as well. Www.bookthegig.wordpress.com

Interesting, I am Arbender and someone recently showed me that people are actually discussing my performance. I just want to say that I am honored. I mean, ya never know if people notice or even care. and for those who do notice and care, ya never know if they like it.... I am just glad that people notice and liked it. now i can smile for the rest of the day...

This was Arbender’s first go round as Marius and I was absolutely blown away. I’ve loved him since he was in Hair — he was always a standout member of the ensemble to me because he has this ridiculously infectious smile and he exuded this pure joy whenever he was on that stage that I couldn’t help but be swept up with him in it. Of course, that was Hair. In LM, he plays Montparnasse (and several other dour ensemble roles), so that joy was notably absent. That being said… it boils under the su...

NO, I am not taking over the role. Well at least it has not been brought to my attention. I will say that Im super excited over all the attention my playing the role has brought. It seems that people are really digging it.

I had the pleasure of working with him on Hairspray on Broadway. I am shocked by this news. He was definitely my favorite Edna ever.

Broadway classroom is probably gonna be the best bet with the most individual options to fit your schedule...

Hey Guys has anyone heard of Lyons and Pakchar? I'm curious about this concert, I previewed their album #Love (Live) on itunes and it seemed cool. Anyone going? I love Mykal Kilgore's voice. This link has a awesome preview.
