After a season of them taking some smaller shows on and an in-house production of Ragtime, we get Young Frankenstein and Mary Poppins. What joy.

I guess August: Osage County is good news though as is Thurgood and the McNally opera play series.

I'm disappointed, but I always HAVE been curious about Mary Poppins, since I've always loved the movie and know next to nothing about the stage musical.
I guess my evil conspiracy theory is wrong-- my theory being, they did Lion King last year, Side Show and Ragtime this year, so logically speaking 1998 Tony-wise, they must do Scarlet Pimpernel next year. Ah well, a girl can dream.

Posted: 3/3/09 at 3:54pmI'm really excited about the Blanchett-led production of A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE. I'll probably make the trip to check it out, and you can't go wrong with a Estelle Parsons-led AUGUST: OC, she is perfection in the part.

Posted: 3/4/09 at 12:45amHow does one not get shut out of one of these starry BAM productions. If I'm not mistaken they usually sell out pretty quickly, and I do NOT want to get shut out of this one.

Posted: 3/4/09 at 12:48amWell the Bridge Project at BAM didn't sell-out? So I don't know. A lot of manhattenites don't like to cross the river.
