I feel bad too. I was excited for Evan Rachel Wood and Alan Cumming to be on a stage together.

I'm a professional. Whenever something goes wrong on stage, I know how to handle it so no one ever remembers. I flash my %#$&. "Jayne just sat there while Gina flailed around the stage like an idiot."

Is there confirmation that it is no longer happening? The articles sight money problems (cash flow) that has apparently been remedied. So why all the condolences for something that we aren't even sure is not happening?

I think we should hold a candlelight memorial service outside the theater so we can all pay our respects.

This is the second time a U2 musical score has been called innovative and well-received, but failed to materialize onstage.

Bono and the Edge had previously written music for the second musical adaptation of A Clockwork Orange (the one staged in the 2000s, without the film's original classical score). Almost none of the songs have been released, even though the score was praised.

For god's sake, just let someone write a good Batman musical. He and his world sing a lot more than Spiderman does, and would look like a spectacle by its very nature, not by elaborate million-dollar special effects.

Visually it was absolutely stunning, incredible designs.
Musically it was dreadful.
It ran a matter of weeks to very thin audiences.

Phil Daniels as Alex on the back of the shows flier.

Yes, Carrie originated in the West End. Zero changes were made before it went to Broadway.

"Carrie" never played the West End. The world premiere took place in Stratford-upon-Avon and from there it went directly to Broadway.

NO! You are so very sadly wrong, 'Carrie' did not originate in the West End.
