At least this might be fun:
"Special performances and celebrity judges include Michael Cerveris, who created the role on Broadway and stage/screen legend, Ann-Margret."
I don't know... What do you all think?

Posted: 4/1/07 at 12:24amI don't mind a few of these on the boards, but do we really need them on the main page?

Dammit. They got me this year!
Last year, with the Bill Clinton in CHICAGO thing, I knew it was a joke.
But I forgot it was April 1 and they got me! Damn them!

Posted: 4/1/07 at 12:33amThe only thing I was thinking was "Why, Sam Mendes?? Why are you doing this????"

What was last years?
My favorite is how it says Fox owns reality TV.

Posted: 4/1/07 at 12:39amI knew this was a joke, but I really like Ann-Margret. So now I don't know what to think. Part of me was hoping to see her on prime time TV.

Posted: 4/1/07 at 1:07amTo answer your question neddyfrank2--I believe last year's was an article called 10 songs Sodheim wishes he never wrote or something like that. It was a spoof on an actual article from the Times where he listed songs he wished he'd written.

Posted: 4/1/07 at 1:25amI thought this was real when I first saw it...

You don't joke about The Who. EVER!
#16re: 'TOMMY Can You Hear Me?' Reality Show To Air On FOX
Posted: 4/1/07 at 1:39amI would've actually watched this. Even though it's a Broadway reality show (stupid idea) and it's on the Devil's network (FOX).

Posted: 4/1/07 at 2:08amBroadwayworld is EVIL! I had been at a fraternity event all evening, so I got on and saw all these new articles...first read the tommy one, which was actually believable...then dakota fanning - okay, well, her wanting to is okay, the julia roberts comment seemed weird...finally the raul esparza one I went "waaaaait a minute!" evil EVIL people!

OH GOD I totally believed this! And I told someone about it!
I think my favorite BWW April Fool's article was the one about ALW helping Sondheim work on Bounce. Is that archived somewhere? That was HILARIOUS.

I don't mean to sound like a total stoner but:
Duuuuuuuuuuuuude!!!!!!! They totally got me!!!!!!!!! And I was ready to scream when I heard this. Especially when I saw the Dakota Fanning article.
#21re: 'TOMMY Can You Hear Me?' Reality Show To Air On FOX
Posted: 4/1/07 at 10:00amI was about to go on the website of Fox television. I was really surprised about Dakota Fanning... im really gullible! The only one I didnt believe was the project that Raul would be working on.
#22re: 'TOMMY Can You Hear Me?' Reality Show To Air On FOX
Posted: 4/1/07 at 10:11amI will admit that they totally got me. Happy April Fools everyone!
