I've been to the last 3 Broadway on Broadways, but now I'm at college and I can't go b/c the city is million miles away!

And I dont have cable in my room, so I cant even watch the airing later this week!
Does anyone know what songs are going to be performed, and by who?? And is someone going to tape the show from the television?

I hate going but I probably will anyway or I'll feel like I missed out on something.

It is seriously the MOST irritating event. You stand there like sardines... it's usually really hot and loud and tourists stampede you... and it does NOT matter how early you get there, you still manage to get thrown back somehow... so not fair.

Someone get me into the press section. I'll give you a cookie.

AMEN to that Daisy.

i'll be there with a few friends. should there be a fun little meeting with BWers?

Posted: 9/10/04 at 3:34pm

I'll be there with my roomate!! I'm so excited!

I feel bad though... My RA just came in and was like 'Hey I'm trying to plan a day at the zoo for the floor! Are you busy on Sunday?' and he's so adorable and I felt so bad being like 'Yes, I'm going to Broadway on Broadway. Sorry!' Ah well.

Whahoo!!

I am!!! I am!!! I am!!!! I am VERY excited, although I'm sure you would never guess!

6:30..that is ungodly!!

would they let you bring chairs in the front - so i could sit my lazy ass down, depending on how early i got there?

I know Sutton is performing a song from Little Women.

I am going as well. 6:30 AM? I don't know how I feel about that...
Leo, maybe we can just go later, and I can sit on your shoulders and tell you what I see! Updated On: 9/10/04 at 04:07 PM

Posted: 9/10/04 at 4:15pm

nah i don't think you can bring chairs cuz it's like a billion ppl packed into a tiny area. Also they don't even let you sit down really cause they say it's fire hazard...go figure...you're outside! I know 6:30 is ungodly but what can I say..I'm devoted! Hold on I'll get you a list of performers in a few minutes.

[leomaxfrank]

Posted: 9/10/04 at 4:20pm

i am in a tree, i am ten.. :)

These are the shows that are performing but I don't know about the actual performers and songs. The list of shows that participates seems to diminish every year...I wonder why they don't want to be involved. It seems like a really fun event to perform at. Ohh well it'll still be fun.

Avenue Q
Beauty and the Beast
Bombay Dreams
Brooklyn, The Musical
Chicago
Dracula, The Musical
Forever Tango
Golda’s Balcony
Hairspray
La Cage Aux Folles
The Lion King
Little Women
Mamma Mia!
Pacific Overtures
The Phantom of the Opera
The Producers
Rent
Wicked
Wonderful Town

Ohhh and I was wondering if anyone wants to meet up there or have lunch after or something. PM me if your interested.

If anyone is taping it off of the TV, could you send me a copy? I'm more than willing to pay for it.

Is Broadway on Broadway definitely only broadcast in the New York area? Is it possible it could be broadcast in, say, North Carolina?
Also, is it usually the stars from the shows who perform, or the standbys/understudies?

[Thoroughly Modern Cara]

Posted: 9/10/04 at 7:07pm

No it's usually the stars that perform. 2 years ago Sutton's understudy went on instead of her but otherwise I haven't seen that.
