RUBEN & CLAY’S FIRST ANNUAL CHRISTMAS CAROL FAMILY FUN PAGEANT SPECTACULAR REUNION SHOW — Page 6

I admit, all I do is troll on these boards, and post casting announcements and show closings from years ago. I never talk about “true” stuff.

However, this is a major turn off from me wanting to spend my hard earned money on this show. The level of disbelief and denial you are in is quite hysterical. You don’t want this show to be the next “Home for the Holidays” but it’s exactly that.

You are told this show isn’t selling, but your response back is that they are lying because the box office opened today. But if you truly cared about this production you would know that tickets have been selling for well over a month.

These people on the boards, are true theatre geeks and nerds, (if we want to use those terms haha) but at the end of the day, they are fueling this show. When you call all the members “liars and dumb*****” because they disagree with you, they won’t want to see the show and you are loosing even more money.

This show isn’t going to sell, plus you have now told the board that the lead producer has left the show and the director has left two weeks before the show starts. Because you are so afraid of this being the next home for the holidays.

Plot twist: this is the next Home for the Holidays.

Actually you are all entertaining yourselves by putting words in my mouth and deliberately misquoting what I said. I called nobody a dumba** or a liar. I never said a producer left, I said that was a mistake in the announcement. I also never said the director left because one was not announced until just recently.

I don't give a rat's patooty if you come or not. I just want people reading here to get at least some balance against all your negativity.

I am thankful that in the year of our lord 2018, this thread exists.

Welcome to the BWW of yesteryear.

I don't think ANYONE wishes it ill- will - just that they have no expectations of this being

a -- good

b -- well sold.

What young peopme are listening to these two guys? And how does an xmas concert connect newbies to a bway show?

I think my new favorite Holiday tradition is going to be throwing an empty wine glass across the room and accusing someone of being a producer on Ruben & Clay’s First Annual Christmas Carol Family Fun Pageant Spectacular Reunion Show!

It's a family oriented offering and it is on Broadway. It's not designed to be an introduction to musical theater. Fascinating reaction on this thread to what I would consider an innocuous, brief run of holiday entertainment."

You also said, " hope that this offering will help build that interest to ensure future generations of Broadway fans."

What do you really think? Why does your idea seem to change once it's challenged?

Kids will sit through this show bored and antsy. This will, if anything, discourage kids for pursuing theatre.

Musical3 it’s very obvious that you are MassiveMeGo since the only posts you have made has been in this thread.

You just need to stop responding, you are just doing more damage to your show. You are in the performing arts business (I assume, since you stated you work for the show), not everyone is going to like what you put out. It’s clear people on these boards don’t care about this show, you are not going to change their minds. So why keep bothering?

---

Clay is aware, now, of MassiveMeGo's outbursts on this thread so I doubt we'll be seeing him back under that name.

How interesting that a new poster appears with the same talking points right as MassiveMeGo has been told to stop....

Wow! My idea hasn't changed at all...challenge away if that is your pleasure. You really think that attending a nostalgic holiday show will discourage children from attending future Broadway productions and/or pursuing theater? Youngsters are surely capable of enjoying shows other than Disney offerings, however attentional abilities certainly vary. I reiterate my hope that a Broadway theater experience would be enjoyable for audiences of all ages and thereby produce long lasting interest in live musical shows.

NOTE: I'm not MassiveMeGo! Continued sleuthing Bwayfan292 & Sondheimte. BTW: Perhaps we share a love for Sondheim, however....

She/he is telling the truth. I am not musical3 and I'm not Ken either. Somebody (sondheimite) doesn't know how twitter works. Clay won't see or read your crap unless he is following you. No doubt you imagine he sits with cel in hand waiting for you to say something.
