Queen of Versailles was boring and morally bankrupt.

Kristen Chenoweth has been nothing but loyal to the Broadway Community and she was treated like garbage."Lol

Iknow a handful of people who have seen this and they all loved it. Very excited for this news!

When I saw it yesterday they unfrurl a sign at the end of Science Fiction Double Feature that says "Enjoy the show. Don't be an a@@hole." Is that a new addition?

Had the chance to see the matinae yesterday and I really enjoyed it. Luke Evans was the stand out. Audeince participation was limited. Feels like a there were a few places they paused for the bigger, well known shout outs. From my vantage point in the back of the front mezz no one stood up during the Time Warp although the cast seemed to be enocuraging it.

Seating question. I'm looking at buying a ticket in the front mezz but they all have limited leg room warnings. Does anyone know how bad it is? I'm 6'2". I think I have sat up there before but it's been a long time. Like Will Rogers Follies.

Children learn at home that respect for the society in which they are allowed to live no longer matters. Schools do not intervene but instead participate in this. We are creating a world full of entitledmonsters.""School don't intervene but instead participate in this" is absolute nonsense. Schools intervene all the time. Parents often do not care.

For what it's worth, this isn't officeial yet. Congress has to approve it.

Sally Durant Plummer said: "Ah yes, she's being held accountable by... a BroadwayWorld thread?This social media faux "activism" is tiring and went out of vogue in 2020."Apparently this message board has the power to start a race war lol.

Sally Durant Plummer said: "I can't pick my favorite part of this thread (too many amazing things to choose from), but it's hiliarious that no one gafs about Patti calling Glenn Close a bitch."Not here but I have seen plenty of people comment about it on other social media. As well as her feud with the long dead Hal Prince.

binau said: "So this has now descended into almost a race war - and yet race has actually NOTHING to do with any of this. Except that Patti happened to be white and Kecia/Audra happened to be Black. And yet, the toxic US culture can't focus on anything except this fact. Emotionally rallying behind Kecia/Audra as if they are a victims of racism and as if Patti is a white oppressor.If you're wondering why Donald Trump won, look at this thread. Are there no progressive leaders that can teach you...

When we have reached the point where people (including US citizens) are being deported without due process (some to an El Salvadorian concentration camp), court orders are being ignored, and propaganda is being used to target marginalized groups, any form of resistance is valid.

BorisTomashevsky said: "Biden can’t string a sentence together. But being a nice guy is apparently enough these days.And that’s what’s got us into this mess. Kamikaze empathy."Complete nonsense and lies. Listen, I wish we had a Democratic nominee that was under 80. But the person who can't string a coherent sentence together is Trump. He is clearly mentally unfit for office.This is why Trump is already trying to lower expectations for the debate. He knows Biden is going to make him look like ...

First off, this is NOT a Broadway musical. It’s a trashy Vegas comic act masquerading as theater. The show has no coherentscript and no music except for one 11 o’clock number sung by the two leading ladiesthat is so ridiculously over the top that you listen in disbelief. The show also is mostly d...
