OH MY GOD. No.
I'm sorry; I think this show is brilliant. That makes me really upset... especially since they apparently don't have rush anymore, and I've not seen Michael Cavanaugh.

Posted: 8/18/05 at 4:55pmDid it (or will it) become the longest running "dance musical" on Broadway? Assuming you don't include Cats, that is.

There's always room for pathos - and jazz hands.

That's sad, but at least it's closing in a few months, giving more people a chance to see it before it closes.
So I'm guessing Tarzan is going into the theatre?

This is so sad. I never got to see this show but I'm definitley going now. Very depressing news.
#16re: Movin' Out to Play Final Performance on December 11
Posted: 8/18/05 at 5:52pmWhile it is sad...I'm really proud of Movin' Out. They had a (fairly) long, successful run on Broadway, great touring productions, and they're going to go out with a bang. Now make room for Twyla's next Broadway project!

the worst show i have ever seen is closing...im sorry for the people losing their jobs...but happy for Broadway! and for the lovers of authentic theatre. I actually think it would be a good Vegas show. Not a Bway show though.

I've never seen Movin Out, and I probably will never get the chance to... but it seemed like a great show.

Posted: 8/18/05 at 6:05pmSaw it last weekend. Enjoyed it for what it was but I did not think it was the greatest thing since sliced bread as many here seem to think ( & are free to do so )

Posted: 8/18/05 at 6:07pmMy problem with it, like CONTACT and Matthew Bourne's SWAN LAKE is that they aren't musicals they are ballet's. I don't think they should be TONY eligible in the musical slot but should rather be put under special theatrical performance.

Posted: 8/18/05 at 6:12pmI felt like I could have had the same experience, and a lot cheaper, by putting on a DVD of any Twyla Tharp piece with the sound turned off while putting a CD of Billy Joel's Greatest Hits on the stereo. I saw it before Tonys and the audience sat like stumps until New York State of Mind at the end. Then they applauded themselves enthusiastically.

YEEEESSS!!
YYYYYEEESSS!!
thank god!!
No offense, but....MOVIN OUT is not a musical as many state.
like CONTACT it is a dance piece....that's it.
didnt deserve tony for best musical (contact..that is)...
as well as Movin out didnt deserve to be in the tony categories for musical..
i agree with the latter of this bunch so far.
MOVIN OUT is MOVIN OUT!!!!
great ad campaign!!!
toodles
