"But by now, they have "decreased" the former sets and costumes in exchange for cheaper running costs (a la "Beauty & the Beast"), and Idina left the show a while ago. "

They have barely decreased the sets at all, and the costumes have been changed a little, but there's no way you can compare it to the decrease in beauty and the beast.

It's just too good to be true...

Congrats to the entire Jersey Boys company!

"Thanks for proving my point about the snobbiness of this board!"

Thanks for pointing that out to us!

There was nothing wrong...no one was personally attacking another person...Wanna Be Foster said something and I disagreed (and I don't believe she was being snobby in that comment)...what's wrong with that?

Anyways, back on Jersey Boys.

I really want to see this show. Congrats to them for breaking a house record! Do you guys believe this show has made a name for itself or that grosses will begin to go down once cast members begin changing?

It seems like a lot of people on this board like to pick fights for no reason at all. Jersey Boys is doing well, and so is Wicked. Isn't that great? It means that we are all still in business!

millie...I believe it will still continue to do well when the cast changes. I've seen the show many times and I always here during intermission people talking about how they didn't know who anyone was, or that JLY and Christian won Tonys. I think a lot of people go to see the show because they want to see a show about the Four Seasons, not necessarily because of the actors. Of course, by the end of the show, the same people all they can do is just talk nonstop about the four guys!!

Many of our friends, family and neighbors are in desperate need of health care services and other life-saving programs, but with cutbacks in government dollars , these programs are often under-funded. Now, more than ever, your donations are needed to support organizations providing HIV/AIDS awareness, prevention education, counseling and testing and care services for people living with HIV/AIDS. http://www.aidswalkphilly.org/users/index.php/profile/detail/186643

WannaBeaFoster...

As stated previously, hun, WICKED did not win for BEST MUSICAL like Jersey Boys. Did I ever state that we didn't win any Tony's. Why do you feel the need to slam down Wicked in your rants about Jersey Boys. They were both excellent shows just leave it at that. And to call Wicked, crappy theatre....well haven't you just insulted mainstream America. I don't know why people on here have such a hatred for Wicked, I mean leave it alone...it's going to create the next generation of theatregoers!! And as stated before....Congrats to Jersey Boys (and the girl in green)!!

I made a list of all your faults, it was quite detailed and lengthy too and when I read it through I missed you. Your like a classic Eagles song, you just cant help but sing along even though it sometimes gets annoying too. I just know I want to be wherever I can wake and see you there next to me. **High Fidelity** Love is what I do **The Wedding Singer** Xanadu - Best NEW Musical of the Season!
