This show already has a better campaign going than the other soon to be Best Musical nominees.

No problem! And thanks, rykiramom, for the heads up that Steph was back in as of yesterday. You mentioned you run Gaelen's website... please tell her that I know two people who saw her and thought she was wonderful; one in particular that went ESPECIALLY because she heard she'd be on. I hope she had a fun time stepping in =)

That will make her very happy. I will pass the info along. If there is ever any question about whether or not she is going on I will post on either the fans Myspace page or her official website. I can start these posts when previews are done. Thanks for the nice words.

Dolly will also be on The Today Show on Wednesday morning (4/22).

Thanks!

DefyingGravity, I assume it'll either be 9 TO 5 or Shine Like The Sun. I'm leaning towards 9 TO 5, but obviously that's just a guess.

Also, seems to be a broadway performances week on Regis and Kelly the week Allison is on:

Mon 4/27: Allison Janney
(no show listed here yet on site I used to look up these things. Perhaps we'll see a 9 TO 5 performance here too?)
Tue 4/28: a performance of "Billy Elliot"
Wed 4/29: a performance of "Rock Of Ages"
Thu 4/30: a performance of "West Side Story"
Fri 5/1: a performance of "Shrek the Musical"

thanks so much. i needed this

I really hope 9 to 5 performs that day Allison is there on Regis & Kelly. I don't see why not. I guess R&K are having their Broadway-themed week so there must be some performance. 9 to 5 seems the most likely since Guys and Dolls and Next to Normal (the only other two new shows I could think of that MIGHT be appearing that aren't already scheduled) have already opened and have not appeared that much (or at all?) on TV interviews and such. Ugh, sorry I rambled, but yeah... I hope 9 to 5 performs on Regis and Kelly too!


EDIT - Um, nevermind. Mary Poppins will be performing that day. According to tvguide.com for their show on the 27th:
"On Broadway Week" begins with Allison Janney ("9 to 5") and a visit to "Mary Poppins."

Weird how a NEW show won't be performing, but at least Allison will still be there promoting the show. Updated On: 4/19/09 at 09:38 PM

rykiramom, do you know if the swings will be in the cast performance on 5/1?

thanks! and can anyone post info on that site? how do they know it's coming from a reliable source?

I am pretty certain they are not. They usually don't do public appearances. Could be wrong, but fairly sure.

BU is very reliable- they actually only post info they receive directly from the understudies themselves, from what I understand.

[rykiramom]

Posted: 4/20/09 at 12:16am

No, I meant how would THEY know if I told them Gaelen was on that I was a reliable source. They don't know who I am lol.

Posted: 4/20/09 at 12:23am

hmm- do you have an @gaelengilliland.com email address? *shrug* I'd think that would work. Or you could ask them-
[e-mail]
they probably have some sort of vetting process, as to who they take info from...

Yep. It's on Regis and Kelly's website as well.
I want to know who had the bright idea to book Allison Janney.
To promote 9 TO 5.
ON A BROADWAY WEEK
.... and then have Mary Poppins perform?
Really? Doesn't make any sense to me AT ALL.

I'll definitely be watching and looking forward to the shows!

Oprah should feature this show. It's all about women and work...perfect fit! Think how that would help the show!

DOLLY on the TODAY SHOW

It was brought to my attention that The View has this listed on their website:

Dolly Parton, Allison Janney, Stephanie J. Block and Megan Hilty (Broadway's 9 to 5 The Musical); Jay Mohr

The site I usually find out talk show info from still has 5/1 listed as "a performance from 9 TO 5". Maybe Dolly is there to talk while the girls are there to perform?

[legally_popular]

Posted: 4/26/09 at 10:22pm

There most likely will be a performance on The View. At least I hope there will be. Not sure if Steph and Megan will join Allison and Dolly for the interview though, but that would be great too.

I really admire Allison and Dolly for doing promotion like this for the show.

Just set my DVR for all appearances this week! Seeing the show for a third time tomorrow night...can't wait! I've had "Shine Like the Sun" in my head all weekend. I love this show so much.

Wow-i just realized how many shows ( and how many times of each) you see. unbelieveable. may i ask how you get the finances for this hobby? and what else do you have going on in your life? i mean, it's great to be a fan, but aren't you a little obsessive?
