Jordan, did you ask if Kyle is really dead?

I guess the first run of Hit List Playbills will need an insert saying, "The role of BOOKWRITER, usually played by KYLE, will be played instead by nobody. Because Kyle is dead."

Also: that is a terrible bio.

"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."

You just can't deal with how edgy that bio is.

The equivalent of dropping the mic. EDGY.

Because Hit List is way too sharp, smart, witty, clever and emotionally confronting for the masses.


We just don't see its beauty.

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.

"Kyle would have wanted to thank his mom, Jimmy, his random ass collection of framed windowcards and Williamsburg. #YOLO"

"Kyle would like all his ugly sweaters donated to Wool for Williamsburg, dedicated to giving ugly sweaters to those hipsters without, so they can wear them ironically.

He would also like to say for the last time that he is definitely versatile."

@Ray

I actually think Krysta Rodriguez is the most underrated talent of the entire cast.

Phyllis..I read the entire recap of this person..whatshername. Hopefully, it will be the last time. She goes on such a ramble, in a Gwyneth Paltrow (I'm better and smarter than you) sort of way, that it defies description. I wish BWW had someone to do the Smash recaps. With regards to the episode itself, Iowa seemed to be in a catatonic state for a good chunk of time. While I admire Katharine McPhee and her singing, her acting...well.....sort of uninspiring. My ideal denoument (sp?) for Jimmy and Kyle would be a deathbed scene. Jimmy is sobbing while Kyle's life is slowly slipping away. Then, he gives Kyle the kiss his smitten collaborator has always wanted. It can happen. But I would love Kyle to survive. I can't wait for that episode. from RC in Austin, Texas

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

sorry, but Mara Davi is all wrong for the role of the Diva if Derek is indeed looknig to replace her. I'd prefer to see her as Hilty's standby in Bombshell.

oh, and Kyle's not dead.....

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Jordan, Kyle was a bottom.

No, he was vers. Don't speak ill of the dead.

Kyle's going to be Token Gay Martyr anyway, dead or not. His pain exists so Jimmy can learn a lesson.

Kyle was VERSATILE bottom. So what if he almost always bottomed? He could top if he felt like it. He just... doesn't feel like topping tonight, okay? He's waiting for the right guy, and maybe he hasn't come along yet. So he's going to bottom, not because he likes to be the bottom, because he can also top.

Stop pestering him to top. He's certainly not going to do it tonight, now!
