I thought you just called many of the older mature posters on here "kids" ? did you not? Higgins, along with many other posters here, are FAR from being "kids"
Of course Patti has her flaws but she's absolutely brilliant in GYPSY. From someone who's seen many reincarnations of the production over the last 30 years, I completely disagree that Patti has ruined it. She's made it better!
You don't have to like her but there's no doubt that she does a great job. You're also basing your opinion off of a recording and a BOOTLEG -- get off your ass and go see the show.
I thought it wouldn't be long before Mr TooDarnHot Nasty' puts his say in! The name is a nickname. Im sure you aren't that hot? I've been in the professional theatre for over 30 years thanks.

The reason i posted what i did was purely to see how fast the Bullies Of Broadway would desend- and sure enough it took seconds! Its hysterical watching you lot. The other night when you layed into some poor kid was nothing short of, of? sad, yea sad. The name Wickedboy2 wasn't my choice- mine would have been 'MamasDoingFine'.

Don't play all innocent. You bring your fair share of negativity on the Broadway board too, Wickedboy. If you can't stand the Broadway board this much - jesus get the hell off of it and stay with your buddies on the West end board.

When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

Did i say that? No! I only look on here to see all you guys get more and more bitter as you wave away from any real topic regarding the theatre!. Just an excuse to be nasty to fellow posters, Vile! See you on the much friendlier and warmer West End board!

I reeeally don't understand what has happened to this Board. Many of you love Patti LuPones performance in Gypsy.
However there are also many of us who didnt. I don't understand why so many people get SO defensive about that! I love Broadway, and I love Patti. I just didn't like the performance she gave the night I saw Gypsy. If I left it at that, I feel like many of you would call this "Patti bashing."
I'm not bashing the woman at all! I just did not care for her performance and don't want her to win the Tony. I don't see the need for name calling. Everybody is entitled to their opinion.
Anyways, if Patti does not win I'll be pissed because I'm sick of stupid politics getting in the way of awarding those who are truly talented. But, I'll live, and Patti will as well.
Opera is when a guy gets stabbed in the back and, instead of bleeding, he sings.
If she doesn't win, I may cry myself to sleep for a couple months. Or move on. We all know she's boss anyways.
"You have two kinds of shows on Broadway – revivals and the same kind of musicals over and over again, all spectacles. You get your tickets for The Lion King a year in advance, and essentially a family... pass on to their children the idea that that's what the theater is – a spectacular musical you see once a year, a stage version of a movie. It has nothing to do with theater at all. It has to do with seeing what is familiar.... I don't think the theatre will die per se, but it's never going to be what it was.... It's a tourist attraction." Stephen Sondheim

I love NY but after 2 days of you guys I'm ready for London. My job takes me to NY 3 or 4 times a year to see shows with BRoadway producers, thats long enough!

Your a student who 'loves' Broadway! Ha! I don't think so! With your attitude you'll go nowhere.
