I found this on the myspace group for the show.

"Such critical exuberance did give "Spring Awakening" a boost at the box office (it took in about $2 million in the week after opening) and set chat rooms buzzing about whether it: (a) deserved the accolades and (b) could survive through the slow winter months to take advantage of awards, including the Tony for best musical, for which it is a strong contender."



The whole article is here.

Why don't people like to name specific boards?

If you think about it, we do discuss some important information regarding theatre that is sometimes not debated enough.

BWW has a chat room, but isn't a chat room.

Why should they mention specific sites? It says "set chat rooms." We're obviously one of them, but why should they name it like we're the only one? I'm sure we're not.

True. We have been discreetly mentioned in quite a few articles.

From my experience, message boards are often incorrectly deemed 'chat rooms'.

"I(t mentions chat rooms, not BWW."

People often call message boards "chat rooms."

Silly questions why is it called BWW and not BW since Broadway is one word...plus BWW makes me hungry for Wings (Buffalo Wild Wings)

The publicity team have been busy; there's an article similar to this on a popular news website in Australia.
Good on them.

I suppose somewhere along the line, someone decided to form the acronym based on syllables. Oh well! Too late now.

BobPopa- BroadWayWorld.

I realize that..but don typically abbreviate by syllable, Was wondering if there was some other reason. If the sight was called Broadway Stuff I would understand not wanting to call it the BS. Just being curious

That's not a BWW mention at all.
