Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!

I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

I was at Sardi's yesterday and Finian's Rainbow was the hot topic of the day. Everyone's happy that it's happening, everyone's shocked at the overhwemlingly positive critical response. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of talented people. I'm going back to see if they've tweaked it since I saw it (3rd preview).

Actually a Rave would be 5 stars (our of 5) so this is just extremely positive, but one more for the list. I am still surprised at 0 negatives for this show. 0!

Saw this twice this week. Absolutely terrific production, with an exceptional cast. Definitely one of the best I've seen in a long, long time.

Are they already selling the colored programs at the St. James' lobby?
