- Little Shop of Horrors Closing on Broadway

Adam Pascal not having a job at the moment is also a crime

Taboo closing before I got to see it

Columbus writing the screenplay for the Rent movie could also count as a musical theatre crime

actually making a movie out of rent period will probably end up being a crime (In my opinion anyway)

Understudies, standbys, swings, chorus members and anyone behind the scenes never getting enough credit for a production.

Rebecca Luker never winning a tony for "Showboat" or "The Music Man".

"Understudies, standbys, swings, chorus members and anyone behind the scenes never getting enough credit for a production."

Michael Hayden and Sally Murphy not being nominated for the CAROUSEL revival.

Noth that Sally could have beaten Domnna Murphy in PASSION, but they nominated Susan Wood from the GREASE revival, for God's sake!
