Well, what matters to me is that people know that whoever is bashing the show under my name (especially so obnoxiously) isn't me.

If you go to YOUR SETTING (left site on Site Feature) then Scroll down to the bottom of the page..click EDIT SETTING...Under Personal information...second - Password- delete that..and write new one... scroll down again and hit UPDATE... that should take care of it...

I just did that, Jay, thanks!
What is absurd is that when you click on "your settings" it tells you what the current password is which is ridiculous.

Yeah. I know. I work doing computer security& conversion..

Its a MUST that WE ALL change our password every month at least bec. it will be very easy to hack this site..unfortunately...

Some sites now have extra precautions...like questions that they asked you.. ex..name of highschool? first pet? fyi- I change my BWW password every month now...on all my accounts... its also good to have a little book near your computer and cross out all your old password.

its as EASY as that... someone can send you a spyware to your computer and they will be able to figure out what site you go and all the information...

SO be careful... Do NOT open or download things that people give you...you dont know if they inserted a spyware to monitor your web activities...OPEN only attachments from people you TRUST!

USA Today is up. 3 stars. Not sure quite what to make of it.

The usa review is the kind of review that can be written without actually attending a performance.

I've never changed my password on this site. Maybe I should.

Back on topic... This production looks so amazing and the reviews, for the most part, are great. Ah, I really want to see it.

"I mean, sitting side by side with another man watching Patti LuPone play Rose in GYPSY on Broadway is essentially the equivalent of having hardcore sex." -Wanna Be A Foster. "Say 'Goody.' Say 'Bubbi.'" ... "That's it. Exactly as if it were 'Goody.' Now I know you're gonna sing 'Goody' this time, but nevertheless..."

Very exciting reviews!

Definitely one of the most thrilling afternoons i've ever spent at the theatre, second only to the revival of 'Sunday...'

The video clips of Patti on Broadway.com look GREAT! though I miss the polished lok of the other revival, I love this new set, and patti's performance was flat out amazing! I'm buying tickets ASAP!

another quote:

In July, when an earlier version of “Gypsy” starring Ms. LuPone had a limited run as part of the Encores! summer series, this powerhouse actress gave a diffuse, narcissistic performance that seemed to be watching itself in a mirror. She was undeniably Patti with an exclamation point, the musical cult goddess, offering her worshipers plenty of polished brass, ululating notes and winking sexiness. But Rose, the ultimate stage mother of Gypsy Rose Lee’s memoirs, was as yet only a wavering gleam in her eye.

What a difference eight or nine months makes. And yes, that quiet crunching sound you hear is me eating my hat. As directed by Arthur Laurents, this latest incarnation of “Gypsy,” the 1959 fable of the last days of vaudeville, shines with a magnified transparency that lets you see right down to the naked core of characters so hungry for attention that it warps them.

blaxx, you are quoting Brantley's City Center review. He clearly likes the Broadway version and thinks Lupone has found her focus.

Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.

blaxx: You're quoting his earlier review from this summer. This time around he gave an all-out rave.

ETA: Smaxie beat me to it.

I believe this is what we call a rave.
I'd call it a love letter also.

You're right Smaxie, sorry.

Maybe I'll eat my hat, as well.

We shall see, shan't we?

I would say Patti is in the final running for a Tony now.

Faith Prince better watch out.

re: GYPSY Reviews

I totally agree with Brantley that Patti was trying out different interpretations of Roses last summer. And now she has REALLY found IT.

Eat this hat and hallelujah
Looks like Patti showed it to ya.
