any word on if WHITE NOISE will ever make it to Broadway? i would think w/ Whoopi Goldberg on the production team it would be, but since the Chicago production I have not seen any news.

From what I've heard around town, the show is preatty much dead.

It was terrible and after the negative reviews, I believe it even ended its run early. Great performers, excellent direction and design, but a contrived mess. I doubt it will ever get produced again.

I remember when it played here in Chicago and the cast and crew was pumping it up as the next big thing to hit the scene and I even heard some calling it a pre-Broadway run (although, I don’t think it were ever any official plans, although I could be wrong?) and then when it began its run, all I heard about it was “meh.” It seemed quickly forgotten about here in Chicago, even when it was running.

All the postings had it listed as an "open-ended run" in Chicago. And then it folded in like 3 months.

White Invention is my jam. I'm assuming this is the same piece of brilliance I saw at NYMF?

It's the same concept and general story, but the producer fired the original writers and had the book and script entirely redone, neutering a lot of the menace and sending it over the top into cringe-worthy preachy territory. Be glad it died as it did - maybe it'll mean the original can be properly revised and brought back at some point.

I saw it in Chicago. It needed some work, but I really enjoyed it. Some great music and the Hip-Hop Hoedown number was a showstopper. It really showed a lot of potential.

So...White Invention isn't even in the show still? Boo. No longer interested. That song lives on in jokes between my friends and I forever.

Hip Hop Hoedown? Yeah. This show needs to die.

Nope, none of the songs from NYMF are in the show anymore (and I always joked with friends about 'I Hate Mondays' and 'Do the Laundry').

What did you think of the number and how it worked in the show?
