Audience Member Has Seizure During Once On This Island Performance

Miles2Go2 said: "Note to self: do not attend orchestral or opera performances where Dollypop is in attendance. It is not good for one’s life expectancy. Broadway shows especially Hello, Dolly!, however are okay."

A relative had a heart attack and died during the overture to a local college production of "Hello, Dolly!". He would have thought it was hilarious, so I think of him fondly when I listen to the score. His wife also went back to see the


Audience member waves a Trump flag during FROZEN

Bettyboy72 said: "Wouldn't matter what flag it was. Not appropriate during a curtain call. It's a time for actors and audience to connect. Not to mention if your flag is blocking my view I'd be pissed. The only thing acceptable during this curtain call is a child holding an "I love Elsa" sign or something along those lines. This dude is the definition of douche-Frozen is a family/kids show. If he had done that at War Paint he'd be dead right now."<


From Any Musical

"He and She" from The Boys From Syracuse


WHO WOULD HAVE BEEN THE BEST FILM

If Judy Garland had lived...can you imagine? She does a little "Hello, Dolly" on her Judy and Liza at the Palladium album. Really a shame she never played it!  


re: Movies that could be Broadway musicals

Judy Garland's last movie, "I Could Go On Singing", has a great plot and there are a number of Adele tunes that fit well. As much as I loathe all the jukebox musicals, I think there's enough theatricality in her music and juicy enough of a plot. 


THE SECRET GARDEN Revival Set for 2018-2019 Season

I'm a HUGE Amber Iman fan, so I'm excited to hear her sing Martha's two big numbers. 


Dramatic female duets?

"I Am My Own Best Friend" from Chicago. Not in the movie and absolutely phenomenal! I believe there's a YouTube video of Liza doing it solo. I second "There's Always a Woman" from ACW. 


What should the next Encores! musical be?

The score to "Mack and Mabel" is so delightful. It's a pity the book is so bad. Any idea if Herman or Stewart's estate would allow someone to work on it. I would love to see Annaleigh Ashford as Mabel. 


Bernadette Peters and Rodgers and Hammerstein

I just discovered 2002's "Bernadette Peters Loves Rodgers and Hammerstein".  Her "There Is Nothing Like a Dame" is a particularly good arrangement. 

Other than TV's "Cinderella", in which she was fantastic, I can't find any record of her performing in a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical. She's done Berlin, Sondheim, and now Herman, but no R&H. I can't find a history of her off-Broadway, tour or regional work (if th


What show should my highschool do?

"Damn Yankees" and "How to Succeed" have great, largely male casts. If you're flying scenery, both work. You could totally fly Finch in the opening of "H2S", as he appears as a window washer in the beginning. 


DOLLY casting replacements

Faith Prince would be a phenomenal choice, and I thought her "Before the Parade..." on her last cabaret album got to the heart of who Dolly is. 

Long shot--I'd love to see Andrew Keenan-Bolger as Barnaby Tucker.
