The rumors of this Allegiance screening proves that winning 5 BWW Awards makes a difference.

Do you think it's actually a rumor -- like someone with 511 followers geotagged a photo of the Allegiance logo at a performing arts center in Hawaii to throw everyone off?

Yes undercoverusher, I do know Trump supporters (sadly related to them)

Anyone who believes Trump is a friend to the working classes, are frankly deluded.

For what it's worth, earlier this spring, I too heard that the producers of "Allegiance" had filmed the show on spec. But I also heard that there were no distribution deals in place. I was left with the impression that any public screenings were a long, long way off. If the rumblings about a September cinema screening prove to be true, I'll be very happy. I saw the show last fall and enjoyed it very much.

What do you mean "Filmed the Show on Spec" that's not a thing.

My understanding is that they may have filmed the show without a distribution deal in place. I have no idea whether any of the performers were paid for this filming yet. (Any cast members reading this thread? You can help to solve the mystery as to whether the filming took place.)

If you were in Allegiance, would you wade through the mountains of people dumping on the show just for the odd chance to answer questions people might have?!

If he is not full of it, his tax plan will save me thousands. The only thing that effects the average person is taxes and you have to be a masochist to want more taxation. I could not care less about anything else, so therefore he has my vote. Look, I'm not rich, like most of you New Yorkers. I'm the real dea, working class, New Yorker, I thought you leftists loved people like me.

Look, people bring up Trump on here, I will defend him on this premise alone. If you earn $6 figures and have savings, you can't be empathetic to people like me. Stop bringing him up, I won't post stuff like this. Someonther poster was whining about what this board has become, stop trashing and judging people and I won't post anytghing like this. When you are earning $40G as an independent contractor, and have to pay your own payroll tax and end up barely able to pay your bills, you would get why worknig class, unwashed masses like me are gravitated to Trump. It has little to do with Mexicans. It's all about taxes to most people. I'm neither a bigot, racist nor homophobe.. Tired of being attacked non stop, 24/7 by people like you because I support the person who will financially benefit me. Why is that so bad?

Look, I even told Takai, why I support Trump, he is a millionaire, he actually was empathetic and understood.....  Homophobe? Bigot? Racist? Nope, just don't want to pay federal income tax for a few years. If Trump keeps his promiose, I can save thousands and move ahead in life. Sounds like a plan

the frayed edges of this rumor, and the fast and loose way that even the most optimistic of these rumors are characterized suggests the fingerprints of a certain producer whose track record is consistent with BS. Check out #5 on the IBDB list.

As much as I enjoyed this show, if people did not want to pay to see it live, I can't imagine anyone paying to see it in a movie theater. However, theyd did digitally film it, I saw it happen

undercoverusher, who are you talking to? We're talking about Allegiance, and you're ranting about Trump.

This is a good point. I'd forgotten he was even involved.

 

And undercoverusher, it's spelled Takei.

No one actually wants this to happen. Allegiance was so forgettable. It was like a fly that you just have to slap and kill. If that got one Tony nomination, I would think the nominations are rigged.....

Obviously you need to check Merriam Webster to see what "no one" means.

I'm in the minority on here but I love this show! Hope it was filmed and gets shown in movie theaters or sell the DVD someday!  A lot of George/Lea fans in their fb pages have asked for touring production, DVD, or a Fathom screening or all, many of them not from NYC.
