DaveyG said: "Does anyone know who the commercial producer is? I assumed this production needed enhancement money."I would’ve bet Scott Landis was putting up money for this, but Kathleen Marshall is not the director anymore.

I’m pretty sure this production will just be a transfer of the DC production with K Todd Freeman

Nettik said: "Mr. Wormwood said: "Nettik said: "I wonder if any planned closing notices will be held off until after the World Cup ends on 7/19."Why??"A lot of shows are focusing their marketing on the World Cup fans right now. A closing bump isn't guaranteed, and sometimes announcing closing devalues the brand more. I know at least one show in another host city that is currently discussing pulling the plug but there's pressure to keep up appearances for the tourists there currently."Is this ...

Lowest gross for Wicked since January 2022. Curious if it even broke even this week when you account for credit card fees.

Melissa25 said: "Disney should just revive Aida or Beauty and the Beast already."The Beauty and the Beast tour will have a Broadway residency next summer. Hercules was recently announced as part of the 2026-2027 season for Alabama Shakespeare Festival. This seems to suggest Disney is sending this straight to licensing for the US market.

Has anyone else noticed the final performance on the 16th of August has been pulled off telecharge?

I think we need to retire the word “Midnight” from show titles. How about, “Night Noon?”

Had it been able to run through the Tony Awards I honestly think Queen of Versailles could’ve given the other new musicals a run for their money for Best Musical, but that’s not really saying much since this was such a dreadful season for new musicals.

Not a good week for Eva Price

Have they made any work to the show since chicago? Any workshops or readings or has it just been collecting dust? Luftig is the commercial producer, right?

They should put the posters up on FIP, lots of missing bears on the island this time of year!If they were to Americanize the show they would have to rename it and the titular character to Penn and that would be stupid.

I wonder who they’ll get to cover her 2 week absence. Would love to see Carmen Cusack.
