It's a 100% original musical from one of the most talented musical theatre composers working today. BRING IT! :3

I adore Jason Robert Brown's work, but I saw this in LA and couldn't stand it.

There is a post on JRB's site about things moving forward, but he can't talk about it. He does however give out the phone number of the person in charge of casting.

I love 13, and have been its biggest champion ever since I saw it numerous times in LA.

There was a post on ATC yesterday saying that 13 was "dead in the water for this year, at least" in terms of whether it was moving to Broadway or not.

I really don't think so. A few of my friends have final callbacks coming up for the show and as far as I know, it's planning on a spring opening. I think JRB is in heavy talks with producers...hence why he couldn't release any real information. But I called the hotline and they said they would set up audition appointments by headshot and resume.

I saw it in Los Angeles, and enjoyed it. It had its share of problems, but he's such a great tunesmith.

I saw it in Los Angeles. It was OK. Just OK. Needs work.

Any clue as to why it might be dead in the water this season? Did the ATC poster say? I heard positive and negative things about 13 from people who saw it, but I adore JRB, and am all for any original musical making the transfer.

On the [title of show] episodes, they said it was unofficially official that 13 was moving into the Circle in the Square Theatre.

Bill Finn rocks. Woot.

I think Jason Robert Brown is a decent composer but I loathed 13.

I heard that 13 auditions are likely to be limited to NYC area residents at present.

I enjoyed it in LA but it's pitched to a very young audience and I just don't see it on Broadway. Hope I'm wrong.

The show is going through rewrites now to be ready for a supposed opening between spring and fall of next year. A director has been picked and the broadway run is official without being "official"

Is there a demo recording of this? Does anyone have it and if so how does one get their hands on it?

There are demos on JRB's website. There is one song about being a friend and then there's a triplet - excerpts from 3 numbers.

They are replacing the director? He was the least of their many problems.

Guys...JRB is in heavy rewrites...lets not pronounce its death before we even know what the new show will be like.

has anyone got a call to go down and audition yet? post if you have a callback from summer auditions as well

[starshine2]

re: 13-jason robert brown#23

Any idea why auditions are limited to NYC residents only? I've never heard of any other Broadway show asking for local residents only.

I don't think they are... many of the camp callbacks are kids from all over the country.
