I hope not, either. But he did post that early enough. Probably just and IV with antibiotics. They are taping their Thanksgiving CBS performance tomorrow at 11:30am and have heavily advertised it with Nick. If anything, Nick will do the taping and then they'll opt to have Max do the evening performance.

Is there any news on your or international productions?
this show has become the surprise hit of the season despite the reviews.

It'll be launching a national tour starting September 2024. Haven't heard of any of other productions yet.

They've definitely found a way to lean into their target audience. At this rate, it'll outrun Kimberly Akimbo, the best reviewed show of that season too if all remains as it is currently. Post-pandemic, reviews truly have negligible impact on longevity of a show (that is, unless it gets absolutely panned i.e. Bad Cindy/Camelot). But in those cases, it's more putting them out of their misery for a predestined closure rather than something that's doing fine business being skewered and then closing.

I think Akimbo has run too long to close in January at this rate. If anything, they may announce closing in January for sometime in the spring (which Stone has done before, for If/Then).

This, Kimberly Akimbo and & Juliet will be the only remaining new musicals from the 2022-23 season left on Broadway come January. ABN does have tickets on sale through September 2024.

They did an amazing job with their CBS Thanksgiving Day performance today. It will be a medley that ends with Sweet Caroline. Nick sounded good despite missing 3 shows earlier this week.

Audience members were let in at 11:20, then cameras started rolling and the first downbeat sounded at 11:38.
The third and final take this morning ended just after 12 noon with a blast of orange streamers.

It was just Nick Fradiani and a 12 member ensemble (show normally runs with ten). No Mimi, Vanessa(new cast member starting tonight) or Aaron. 5/6 swings were included: Ninako, Sam, Robert, Sean and Aveena.

Man, that sucks.
I hope she’s continuing with The Heart of Rock and Roll.

Robyn Hurder is FIERCE in this show. "Forever In Blue Jeans" is my favorite number from the show. Her acting, singing, and dancing are all perfect. She is the true definition of a triple threat.

She apparently has/had a slipped disc in her back. She was hoping to be back for her final weeks. I think she was scheduled to leave on Dec. 17. Aveena Sawyer is officially taking over her track.
FYI, Mary Page Nance and Paige Faure are also leaving the show at the end of the year.

I haven't been following the show much at all, but can anyone tell me where the rush seats have been for this? I'm debating on trying rush at some point or just buying a regular ticket.

I've done rush three times for the show and the seats have been different each time. First time was front row on the side. Second time was center orchestra and the most recent time was rear orchestra.

Amber Ardolino (Back to the Future) is reportedly replacing Robyn Hurder as Marcia.

I absolutely cannot see this. I could sooner see Hugh Jackman in a blonde wig. But Amber reads way too young and way not right for that part.
