Posted: 4/23/07 at 3:58pmBecause they have to wait for Pirate Queen to give notice. They probably were going to announce St. James and opening dates, etc. But now they may be waiting. If Grease goes to the St. James, as Billy the Kid swears is happening, could LoveMusik take the Brooks Atkinson, since it apparently already has commercial backers?

Posted: 4/23/07 at 4:10pmCould it be possible that the poster in Times Square was to be replaced with the official logo or something?

Just a question - Is the movie Young Frankenstein worth seeing before I see the show? I haven't ever seen it.
Thanks

Posted: 4/23/07 at 5:07pmOk, I'll try to rent it some time before I see the show.
Young Frankenstein#83
Posted: 4/23/07 at 5:12pmI'm nearly positive it will open at the Paramount in Seattle just because they've been so hush-hush about what the other show making up the rest of the season next year is... I was there this past weekend to see LitP and asked but they said they "wouldn't know for a few more weeks."

Posted: 4/23/07 at 5:12pmI have a feeling that that little thing on the site is what we've been waiting for...well doesn't that suck?

My mom said that they were saying on the radio today something like "The Producers is closing today, but you Mel Brooks fans don't you worry because he has a new musical coming to the St. James theatre, Young Frankenstein."
So, I dunno. It's really making me mad that they still haven't posted anything. Am I the only one that thinks the new message on the YF site is kinda weird. Maybe they are clues for something or something, haha.

Posted: 4/23/07 at 5:56pmIs Eric McCormack back onboard as Dr. Frankenstein?
Young Frankenstein#89
Posted: 4/23/07 at 5:58pmIs it true you are up for the lead as the monster Dolly?

Billy is wrong that Grease will take the St James. Every article on broadwayworld, playbill.com and broadway.com talking about the show says it will open at the Brook Atkinson. And, every newspaper article says it will open there as well as ticketmaster.com. So, I believe those more then I would believe some poster saying he knows for sure without anything to back him up.
I don't think that Pirate Queen will leave at all anytime soon. The ticket sales are doing well and it is the kind of lavish musical tourists want to see when they come to broadway.
I thought the whole idea was to close the producers and put Young Frankenstine there.

Wow, I didn't realize that so many morons post here.
I call for this thread to be deleted. Just a waste of time.

Ok, now there is actually something legit to comment on.
Variety Aticle

If Brooks wants the Hilton, he'll get the Hilton- simple as that.
The owners are going to jump at a cash cow, rather than something that makes them keep their 'stop clause' in mind.

If, by some miracle, Pirate Queen can build an audience & it is kicked out of the Hilton, will it move somewhere else - assuming a theater is open?
My posts re Dollypop were light hearted humor. Please take it as such

Posted: 4/23/07 at 7:32pmThat article says nothing more than what Riedel did. It just added specs about the theater.
Young Frankenstein#97
Posted: 4/23/07 at 7:43pmTrue, but at least the Variety article doesn't read like a shady gossip column.

Posted: 4/23/07 at 8:02pmThe Pirate Queen had an 8 million dollar advance!

Posted: 4/23/07 at 8:07pmSo was Mel a liar? I am guessing nothing was announced today.
