Profile for Observation

I'm a Meg Stalter fan... but... even after watching the stage door videos where it's just a constant bit after bit after bit, I imagine her interpretation is probably similar.

I always caught this show with a lottery ticket and always felt like I was treated to a great little show. I've taken several friends to see it over the years. People who "aren't musical theater people" and they love it. Sad to see it go! I'll listen to the album from time to time while on a run and always enjoy it. Cheers to the creators of this show, taking such a fun little concept and taking it world wide.

Another part of this conversation that my brain keeps going back to, it is so expensive to film a show on Broadway, due to the amount of regulations/red tape, so producers are opting to film in London. It's one of the other things I appreciated about the HADESTOWN pro shot. It blended the originals with the current London cast.

I wish CATS had those grosses from the jump, if so, it’d be running for a long time.

No one was buying the regular priced tickets which are the seats that generate profit to keep shows running. Those $40 Rush tickets couldn’t even cover a performance’s WiFi bill."The article addresses that…

Is Corn Puddin' the best/funniest song from the score? I feel like they push that song every 2 seconds.

Very impressive for Jellicle Ball too but too little, too late.Every Brilliant Thing is doing a bit better as it heads to closing. Glad to see it because Tracee Ellis Ross is really wonderful in it.Just in Time is looking pretty weak. If they don't have someone new lined up after JJ, we could be reaching the end of the road with that show.That's a new all-time high for The Lost Boys"The decline for JUST IN TIME...

I’m sure it’s unrealistic… but damn would I be so interested to see Laurie Metcalf take this on.

Agree with everyone's praises. The only thing I can add is that as soon as I left the theater, I text 3 people I knew to go see the filmed stage version. I would love for the trend of filming in front of a live audience to continue. It's so interesting to me, from what I gather, there's a logistical/financial reason as to why we're seeing these shows being filmed in London, it is just a nightmare and so expensive to film in NYC.

I know time will tell, but wondering.. could Alaska be the Broadway Mary? The dates would align with Meg’s departure.

Ok., so posted my comment and then decided to youtube some videos. Found this video of them both of them singing "Hopeless War" from The Outsiders. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GqdclCyjJU&list=RD5GqdclCyjJU&start_radio=1 So... I think she may be kinda great for the role of Natalie. Her voice sounds perfect for it.

I get the frustration around nepotism and being able to just step into a role that thousands of young performers would absolutely knock out of the park, all because of who your mother is. I hope she knows how many people will be scrutinizing her performance, and I would love to consider her a nepo-baby with raw talent. We all know this isn't the first or last time this will happen, but if the performer in question rises to the occasion and is able to stand on their own, I'm able to forgive an...

So given there's some activity going on with the website updates, do we think an announcement is coming tomorrow? I mean, surely this week they will have announced?
