Looks Like CARRIE Is Actually Headed Back To The Broad-Way

The thing is everything she says in that "interview" is pure speculation. They are doing another reading seems to be the only thing remotely rooted in reality. Everything beyond that is "they hope" and "they want" with no real backing.

"Well i think his sister is gonna be smart enough to not say anything if it was false, shes worked in this industry a long time."

And since when has that stopped somebody from putting their foot in their mouth before?

"Was the music ever recorded? Available?"

Legally? There's three songs - "Carrie" on one of Linzi Hateley's solo albums (orchestrated like the show), "When There's No One" on one of Betty Buckley's cabaret CDs I believe (just a piano) and then Alice Ripley & Emily Skinner recorded the duet "Unsuspecting Hearts" on their album "Unsuspecting Hearts."

I hope it tries out in Chicago first.

But, yeah, this ain't gonna work unless they find the right point of view on it. Get rid of the teenagers as a dancing, singing, ensemble and that's already one step in the right direction. Carrie is not a story held aloft by youthful enthusiasm as I have read it.

I'll believe it when I see it, but I hope this comes to pass. Meanwhile, the media machine is doing a good job of keeping it in the minds of the public.
With Irma you gotta do something!

Prospective producers were quoted as saying, "Anything to get those BroadwayWorld kids to SHUT UP about it, already!"
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

Wanting, hoping and aiming for bway is a FAR cry from any actual production. Sounds like a whole lot of propaganda to me.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Yeah, I love how "I'm keeping my fingers crossed" in a tiny, not terribly probing article constitutes the main story on BWW.

Could not disagree more
Whilst i tthink music and choreography needs sorting (saying that the music from the last reading shows that they are at least on the right track)the book, movie and show is very much a teen affair, remove the elements of the teen world, dance, sexuality, attitude etc you have nothing to set Carrie off against. Carrie worked because it was a small town, normal kids and a girl who just wanted to be like them.


Namo i love u but we get it already....you don't like Madonna
