BwayBoy, you can only be "typecasted" as a teenager for so long, so I don't think that's a worry for anyone.

I think Anika Noni Rose is about 24.

dracula is a revival, it won't win best musical, but it has a chance to win best revival. i know it's a revival cause my mom saw it in nyc on roadway in the 80's.

Dracula The Musical is a brand new show. There is a PLAY Dracula. That might be what ur thinking of

To a certain degree you can still be "typecasted" as a teenager when you are older. It may prevent you from getting a part because the casting director may think of you only as a performer who can only play teenagers.

Posted: 8/25/04 at 3:18pm

Yes Dracula has never been a musical in history thus meaning it could only win a nod for Best Musical, You mom saw the play version which starred Frank Langella as the bloodsucking count, the show ran from 77-80 so your mother must have seen it towards the end. In case anyone is interested, Dracula (the play) won two Tony awards, Best Costumes, and Most Innovative Production of a Revival, a category I believe does not exist anymore.

You know, there are also productions on Broadway without songs. They are called plays, and actually, this season, there are some very interesting shows on the way, including both new plays and revivals.

Gem of the Ocean
Democracy
Brooklyn Boy
Hitchc*ck Blonde
The Pillowman

Revival of a Play
Sight Unseen
After the Fall
Reckless
12 Angry Men
'Night Mother
The Rivals
A Streetcar Named Desire
Glengarry Glen Ross
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf

i've never liked plays. they just aren't as much fun as musicals.

[LadyGuenevere]

Posted: 8/25/04 at 5:28pm

What?!

I think that the plays on Broadway now are better than the musicals...

[lildogs]

Posted: 8/25/04 at 5:30pm

i agree Lady G--harder to f*** up a play...:)

[Derek2]

Posted: 8/25/04 at 5:34pm

I dont agree with u, but I see where ur coming from. shows can be really weird or really straight and it works lol. musicals cant be (Taboo / Dance of the Vampires=examples)

[Derek2]

Posted: 8/25/04 at 6:24pm

Actually, you can't be "typecasted" as anything because there's no such word. It's "typecast."

wait! what is jarrod emick in this season!?!?! i had no idea he was in something and he is amazing. also - gavin creel will definitely be nominated for lead actor for la cage. he is the most talented actor/singer in the business

[Derek2]

Posted: 8/25/04 at 10:27pm

I think Gavin might be nominated for best FEATURED actor this year...maybe, the part isnt that big, its like the 3rd biggest in the show. Ummmm Jarrod is in All Shook Up. He's the lead :)

I'm gonna go out on a limb here but I predict that in 2036, the cryogenically frozen head of Carol Channing will bring home the Tony for her must-see performance as the head of Dolly Levi in Hello Dolly!

Don't hold me to it though.

My prediction:

Peters over Marissa.

Can't loose.

I love this board sometimes, I laugh!

Someone said Norbert Leo Butz. WTF? What will he be in?

After listening to Little Women clips, I give Sutton a surefire nod. Also for Best Score, and hell, why not Best Musical?

Anyone have dish on Brooklyn Boy?

If it is done as well as it was in London I will eat my hat if The Pillowman does not get a bunch of nominations.
