Is TAM MUTU in this? I thought I saw him rehearsing with CHRISTINE EBERSOLE on Instagram... He's a talent...

Ouch!  Ticket sales are terrible.  I'm here looking for tickets in March and I can literally get a pair in Orchestra Center, Row K, L, M, etc at regular non-Premium prices for all the dates I'm checking.  Even Mezzanine Center, Row A, B, C, etc.

Then I guess the only diva this season who can single-handedly summon a full house is Bette Midler?

All joking aside, I wish I were more surprised by that...but I really haven't heard much buzz for War Paint, even in my theatre circles. Marketing issues much?

Responding the sales, theres really not much buzz, and in my opinion Patti and Christine won't bring it a ton of tourists, people in the know, yes but everyone else no.

Patti Cohenour was Ebersole's standby in Chicago, and I assume she'll be covering her again on Broadway, and I'd love to see her if she gets to go on. (Joanna Glushak, I believe, covered LuPone in Chicago.)

This is definitely one of those shows that I'll probably be talking about for years. I'm so glad I'm going to get to see Patti AND Christine on the same stage.

I watched two YouTube videos in a row and both had a War Paint ad before them. I found the difference in voiceovers to be interesting...

First ad said something along the lines of, "the musical starring two legends, as two legends" and the second one was "two women find the beauty in power...and the power in beauty."

Just a random observation. I am very excited for this show. 


I am big. It’s the REVIVALS that got small.

I know we're far off from seeing any replacements, but I couldn't stop thinking how perfect Jennifer Laura Thompson would be as Elizabeth Arden.

I hope the show lasts long enough to have replacements.  The version that played the Goodman didn't give me much confidence that it would make much of an impression without being heavily revised in both book and score.

It's already been reported that they've been revising the show since the Goodman.

That certainly sounds encouraging.  I hope they take it more seriously than the sort of revisions we heard about for Pirate Queen or The Last Ship that were really just superficial changes rather than addressing problems with the book and structure.

Why the hell didn't they use that picture for the billboard instead of the weird alien vibe they have going on now?!?!? That's stunning
