Re: WANTED Reviews

DiegoKoch said: "The whole Broadway establishment has been corrupted. The Tony’s, the critics, the landlords, they’re all in the pockets of producers who pay them off. It’s very sad what’s happened. In what world do they like Schmigadoon and take a knife to shows like Wanted, Lempicka, and Versailles? This corruption is pernicious to the entire industry and its about time people start speaking out against it."

Literally what the comments sound like to me on 99% of these message boards!

Re: WANTED Reviews

I’d love to see brave producers and writers and directors and performers start speaking out as well. It’s only a matter of time before they are all put on blast. All of them.

Hey @DK:" The Tony’s, the critics, the landlords, they’re all in the pockets of producers who pay them off". ---this has to be one of the MOST UNEDUCATED things I've ever read about Broadway!!! What the heck does that mean?? Who is the producer paying off? and why??

Re: WANTED Reviews

Corruption has nothing to do with critical reviews of a show. Especially the 3 you chose to highlight. Two of which were abject creative failures. Get some new material, Flash. The act is tired.

Re: WANTED Reviews

Are you that naive to think that critics have never been paid off for a good review? It happens all the time sadly. This is a dirty and vulgar business.

Re: WANTED Reviews

Nobody's getting paid off.................. I thought those accusations only existed on Twitter circa 2015 surrounding Marvel and DC movies.
