PIRATES AT BARRINGTON to BROADWAY

LET US BE GLAD. LET US BE GRATEFUL. LET US REJOICIFY. I just had dinner with one of the creative associates putting up Pirates of Penzance at Barring Stage Company this summer. With Josh Bergasse choreographing and a fantastic cast, it appears they are looking for a Broadway home for the production in the spring of '17. I can not wait for this! Will and Kyle and Brit newcomer will certainly add a sexy and contemporary spin to such a dated piece. Can't wait to see it reimagined.

At DISASTER last week, someone told Will that they hope PIRATES comes to Broadway and his response was something like "That's what we hope!"

I thought he was just bullish*tting and being polite because without an absolute mega "Hugh Jackman-esque" star, could a Broadway production of this show even stand a chance of success??

I must write that you cannot beat the pricing. Happen to be up in the Berkshires for the show's first weekend in mid-July and I scored Saturday night tix (must be their preview) for $25 each-in Row H.
