Take this with a grain of salt, but I am hearing GHOST could post its notice at any minute and that Kathy Lee Giffords musical Saving Aimee will be taking the Lunt Fontanne.

I still can't get past those words 'Kathy Lee Gifford"

Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist. Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino. This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more. Tazber's: Reply to Is Stephen Schwartz a Practicing Christian

She might slap you as it is Kathie and not Kathy.

Isn't one horrid show about faith healing enough for the first quarter century of this or any other century?

She'll always be Kathie Lee Epstein to me.

Wasn't she also Kathie Lee Johnson during the "Name That Tune" days? Must have sounded better then Epstein.

Unless they are transferring the production from a community Theatre in Bayone NJ, why would GHOST post any minuete?
The show would take at least 6 months to cast, rehearse, build, etc. etc. etc. Did I miss something?

They've already begun casting and rehearsals are set to begin towards the end of the summer, late August/early September from what I've heard.

If by "successful" you mean it opened and ran then, yes. But it was not good. It was actually quite awful.

By successful I meant there was a lot of hype about it.

Wonder where they're going to put A Christmas Story???

I don't remember if they announced the organization A Christmas Story would be renting from (i.e. a Shubert house, a Nederlander house, etc), but if Matilda does indeed end up at the Shubert, as some are now speculating, I could see A Christmas Story moving in to fill the time between between Memphis and Matilda, since last I heard Matilda is not planning on opening until after the holidays.

That would mean it's taking the Hirschfeld.

I thought I remembered hearing that CHRISTMAS STORY was taking the St. James after BRING IT ON finished its limited run. But I don't know if this is accurate.

As long as Bring it on doesn't extend Christmas Story is planning to take the St James
