Is there a video press release available for viewing anywhere?

This will FLOP badly! The new title number sounds worse than the original.
The idea is to work and to experiment. Some things will be creatively successful, some things will succeed at the box office, and some things will only - which is the biggest only - teach you things that see the future. And they're probably as valuable as any of your successes. -Harold Prince

Cannot wait for the Spanish version.

Am I losing it or is that melody, not just a ripoff of In My Own Little Corner?

He’s acknowledged it’s an homage to R&H.

It's cute! Other than Evita and JCS, I do NOT care for any other things ALW. And the songs I've heard sound meh. But I'm super happy for Linedy. She must be over the moon! She's living every music theater kid's dream!

Best comment ever.
Oh, and people who believe anything on Tiktok and talk about it on here like it's real information are just as stupid as the kid who spreads lies on the platform itself.

Also - to Bryan the Business Analyst on Tik Tok - you’re one of my favorites. Thank you so much. AND YOU WERE RIGHT!!! <3 (Also, I'm only 43! lololol)
And go follow him because his series breaking down the “Great Comet” controversy is AMAZING.

This is absolute madness and I'm enjoying every second of this. It's like a subplot on SMASH or something.
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

Should we all take bets now as to how short this will run? Does this reach the Tony Awards? July 4? Labor Day? 2024?

I'm still gonna be that person who says I actually liked this show! It's not the most incredible thing I've ever seen but each time I saw it, I had a lot of fun.

Agreed, I thought it was a pleasure. It’s quite enjoyable. But if there’s one thing theatre people on social media are gonna do, it’s exaggerate

I haven't seen the show, nor am I very familiar with it, so I can't speak to its quality. However, I think ALW is underestimating how important Carrie Hope Fletcher was to the show. Not that CHF is a huge star, but she has a large social media following in the UK who are the exact demographic this show is aiming for.
While I'm all for casting relatively unknown actors, I think this show really needs someone who can activate the young fans.

I love Bryan the Business Analyst!!! He was my actual first follow on TikTok. I wish he'd go back to doing the weekly box office breakdowns because I always looked forward to them. And the Great Comet series is so inside baseball juicy!

I was there this morning and I heard her say that she's known about this since February. It a) made me chuckle because of all of the rumor mill Sweaty Oracle nonsense when this has actually been settled for 8 months and b) made me so happy for her because this is huge for her (whether it flops or somehow does not) and it must be incredible to FINALLY get to talk about it and be happy!

Lies on top of lies on top of lies. Every time someone quotes that person on a platform made for teenagers as "reliable" or "credible", I will call you out on it. Every single time. Cheers.
