A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD!!!????

WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!?????????
Ok, i'll admit- I know very little about the show. But really people! An entire song about COOKIES!!! Perhaps this show is better suited to touring to public libraries across the country. Maybe a more juvinille audience (who didnt just pay $100 per ticket) would be more appreciative of the simple (bordering on pointless) message which this show conveys.

"I think it's gay night out there. It's amazing. I mean, look at Frog and Toad-- what's that about?" -- Denis O'Hare

Maybe there is more to is than cookies...

Maybe cookies is a euphemism of sorts...?

Huh? Huh?

What does eating cookies really mean? And can a Frog and a Toad ever truly find happiness together? And even if they do, the Bible clearly states such feelings are forbidden between frogs and toads. Now what does eating cookies mean? Less silly song about a delicious treat, more bittersweet remembrance of an easier time... huh? Huh? You just have to think about it for awhile.

I would agree. The more I hear about the ideas for broadway shows, the more I choke myself and dive into my RENT soundtrack. Where is broadway going when all the shows comming out are based on childrens book's and 15 year old MGM movies?!?!

It flopped on Broadway because tickets were too expensive for a five-person kid's show. In other words, it didn't belong on Broadway. Neither did LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS or YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN

I'm sure THE FANTASTICKS would have flopped on Broadway.

That said, we did the Chicago area premiere of FROG AND TOAD last year, and it was the biggest hit in the 28 year history of our theatre.

I'm sure it's rather enjoyable in a regional setting...with lower ticket prices than the Broadway version.

I loved it. But that said, it was too expensive for what it was; a great show for the young and the young at heart
