Nah, but you should apologize for lecturing and telling people they were wrong and did not GET the bombastic musical that was Tammy Faye (RIP). We all got it, which is why it ran for 29 performances and lost $25 million."
Please show me where I said that people didnt get it. I'll wait.
And coming after me instead of admitting. You were wrong or apologising for your own actions speaks volumes.

March is a ways away. Let's see if this actually opens.
I can see how they might think, "Oh Mary! is pulling a million a week, why can't we?"
But this show is just a step above the Friends parody musical.
And what's with the Jim Parsons rumours that he's joining this? Has he suddenly developed a gambling habit like the rumours about why Bruno Mars has to keep doing shows in Vegas?
Looking at Broadway's Spring, I'm quite happy I have no plans to leave the West Coast for at least 11 months.

I just did a quick scroll through of the thread and haven't seen this little nugget of info mentioned yet: the orchestra minimum for the St. James is 19. So that should be an... interesting negotiation.

Anyone hear or can confirm anything to these casting rumors:
I'm hearing Constantine Rousouli will reprise his role, then I'm hearing Jim Parsons as Roses Mother??? then just briefly today I was told Grande was as well... which I don't know if they mean Frankie Grande as Victor Garber or Ariana Grande (which in my mind seems a little out there) as Rose.
I would love to see John Riddle back as Cal.
Can anyone confirm or deny or provide any other casting they've heard?

If Frankie's in it, then I'm staying the hell away from it!
“which I don't know if they mean Frankie Grande as Victor Garber or Ariana Grande (which in my mind seems a little out there) as Rose.”
…if any brain cell ever said Ariana, get it checked. ASAP.
Odd that they would not announce Constantine as Jack in the initial announcement?

Odd that people assume he would automatically be in it? Has he confirmed that?

Referencing the rumor above that he would be in it — if he is indeed doing it, it’s a little odd they wouldn’t announce him with Marla, being that he’s an author. I should have quote-replied but I didn’t!
According to Paige (lighting designer), Frankie Grande is indeed attached to the Broadway run, as well as Tommy Bracco. Paige and her Wife Izzy announced it (possibly prematurely if no other casting has been announced?) on the RHAP Podcast (Rob Has A Podcast). Izzy and Paige appeared on the most recent season of The Amazing Race placing 4th on the season that featured all Big Brother players and their loved ones. Izzy was on season 25 of BB (alongside the GOAT of reality competition and social strategy shows, Cirie Fields) with her now wife Paige. Frankie and Tommy were mentioned because they both also appeared on previous seasons of Big Brother.

Calling Cirie the GOAT is laughable! If she were the GOAT, she would've won something!

I mean if you want to go there… besides being considered the greatest player to never win Survivor; she did win Snake in the Grass as well as (spoiler?) the inaugural first season of The Traitors US.

I've only ever seen the original London cast, and the ensemble was amazing. The voices of Rob Houchen, Jordan Luke Gage, and Layton Williams are incredible. Stephen Guarino was hilarious. Wonder if they're being considered at all, though it seems unlikely.
They need to get Nathan Lee Graham back he was excellent

If you want to pretend like those two shows are up to Survivor's standards, go ahead!

She literally won the first season of Traitors, dumbass

Agreed 100%.
Has he been cast? Please say no! Please!? Please!!????? No! No!!!!!
I HOPE not but most of the casting hasn't been announced yet. He is not good enough for Broadway and I don't understand why he's ever cast in anything, besides people possibly hoping his Sister stops by?
None of the names being reported for this will sell tickets.

The producers? They don't care to understand that no one wants this on Broadway, it won't sell, and none of the names floating around matter. This season was so light they decided to bring bombs in to pay rent, and it's a very short-term solution to all of Broadway's problems.
