CONFIRMED: Audra McDonald-led GYPSY to begin previews Nov 2024 — Page 34

Some stupid influencers are going into the majestic theatre. I asked one of them what was happening, and they didn’t tell me. Why do shows continue to use them? Producers, they are not helping you!

They deleted one of my comments on here, but to answer Kad’s question, I was just going about my day and was heading next door to the Broadhurst Theatre to buy my 30 under 35 MTC tickets to The Hills of California which is when I stumbled upon them. No I was not creepy, I asked them a simple question, what’s happening? Is this about Gypsy? They mumbled some nonsense out

I love that New Orleans “JAZZ” flavor they added to the overture.

I love me some Andy Einhorn conducting!

fwiw I wouldn't make too many judgments on the sound of this orchestra from this clip since they're going to have a lot more rehearsal time and it seems like this video was taken on a phone at an angle, so it wouldn't allow for the optimal sound balance and everything (the horns are notably much louder since they're closer)

I wish they were in the pit. This whole thing was a flop in my opinion. The orchestra sounded bland. Why didn’t they at least announce the cast? Why does the Broadhurst still have an elegant marquee, but the Majestic went digital?

Everyone is calm. But apparently you got hysterical. I thought it was a cool thing for them to do. But they should all be careful with these preview videos. The glance of the sitz probe ( sp?) is what started all the Beanie drama.
