Why are people acting like this production has been playing to half-empty houses? It's been consistently clearing well over $1mil weekly. This production will easily last through the summer.
"

I’ve been confused by that sentiment floating around as well. The production is not struggling.

Montego Glover such a Big yawn! Simply, bad casting. She doesn’t have the acting chops for Rose.

Neither does Audra.
"

I mean this comment is both vile and stupid. Of all of the complaints about Audra's performance, none of it has ever been about her acting.
"

Mine has! All acting from the neck up. Not grounded on any truth.
"

 

Did you expect to see more acting from Audra's knees?

If anyone involved is reading this - - - any way to still facilitate a Heather stint?? Wishful, fantastical thinking, I know, and imagine she might've already been approached but... just want to put it out into the universe."

 

I have no inside knowledge, but perhaps Audra vetoed the idea of Heather Headley?  Certainly she wouldn't want anyone who might be better in the role than she is?

That might have been more interesting.

RE: Grosses, with costs these days, a very large cast, children and a large orchestra in a barn I can't imagine that GYPSY is very cheap to run. I wonder if costs might be around 900k, for example. 


"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

I'm sensing a Labor Day closing if Audra doesn't win the Tony.

Nah.  Even a early closing is to exciting for this production.  It will close in October and be forgotten by December.
