ErmengardeStopSniveling said: "They had the rights before the Bway productions were announced, and the Bway producers did not think it necessary to pull the rights. They cater to a mostly DC-local audience, most of whom won’t go to NYC (or can’t get tix to Sweeney in NYC)."
It's interesting to note that they had also planned on doing "Merrily" this year but the rights to that were pulled even though it would not have run during

I'm glad they released those selections, now I know to avoid this like the plague. Personally, I'd rather have a root canal than watch another second of this.

Jordan Catalano said: "I just got an email from the show saying they’ll be making an exciting announcement in the next few days."
Wouldn’t anything involving Broderick and the word exciting be considered an oxymoron?

George Rose in My Fair Lady
Jul 25 2020, 07:28:51 PM
I agree with Dollypop. I was fortunate to see this production twice. My parents took me once and then it ended up my drama class went to see it too. George Rose stole every scene he was in, he was perfect! I also loved Ms. Andrea and Mr. Coote, repeating his take on the Pickering , was perfect.
It was also such a treat seeing the original set and costumes.
Everything about this revival was wonderful, but Mr. Rose's performance will always be the sta

Thanks Hogan for the reminder. I would have forgotten all about it!

I am proud of the musicians too. It's the AFM who I am not. And, having worked with several opera and theatre companies (long time ago) ... it is ALWAYS the AFM.

OKLAHOMA! to go on tour in 2020
May 15 2019, 10:10:53 PM
Wow! What an absolutely STUPID idea. The reason to see this is the environmental aspects. I couldn't imagine seeing it in a proscenium theatre , let alone any one of these oversized touring venues.

Biggest Tony upset of all time?

LuPita2 said: "Tony Shalhoub winning over Joshua Henry. He hadone song that he spoke, what a joke. Joshua was the only good thing about Carousel (besides the choreography). His "Soliloquy" alone made him deserving. Laziest year for the American Theater Wing I have ever seen."
I saw both performances and Tony Shaloub deserved the award.

That's the perfect reason NOT to see "Ain't Too Proud".

She doesn't have the name recognition, but I would love to see Harriet Harris do the part.

Audience Member Pet Peeve
Apr 26 2019, 12:57:36 PM
Wow, I couldn't disagree more with what a lot of people are saying. Art should generate strong emotions, both good and bad. I actually love it when I hear someone say they hate a show that I loved. I listen in to find out why- do they have valid arguments? Good theatre should generate discussions, debates and even arguments.
On a side note, sometimes I find shows I've thought I've hated right after the curtain has gone down are shows I remember the most. There are times whe

An audience member gave his opinion of a show AFTER it was over and you find that objectionable? People have a right to their opinion. As long as he didn't interrupt the show, who cares???

That's not relevant. since these were affiliated organizations, company members wouldprobably be considered to be in positions of power over students.

Maybe I'm wrong but I think Alexandra Waterbury was never an employee of NYC Ballet. She was a student at School of American Ballet, the school of the Ballet Company and a training ground for new talent. I find this entire thing disgusting, but morals for things not related to work are not a fireable offense. Likewise, most certainly NYC Ballet will be dismissed from the lawsuit because their term of employing Chase Finlay was not on condition he have an affair with or sleep with Ms

The Prom, Tootsie or Oklahoma!
Apr 20 2019, 10:53:20 PM
I'd see Oklahoma because it is in such a unique space. This won't tour and if it did, it won't work.
Having said that, all three shows are great, so you really con't lose.

Another reason to do any cast recording is to entice regional , community and high school/college theatres to do it. Since the only good thing about the show is the puppet, once this production closes I can see the show disappearing forever (Thank God!)
