I hope this wasn't been posted yet but on broadway.com, they have a fall preview of shows opening and how they think it will do and stuff. It's pretty cool and it has an animated pic of the marquees on the shows.

I just saw this today. Very interesting indeed. I'm really looking forward to all of these additions to the '06-'07 season.

I love the cartoon of the marquees, very creative.

Quite a good guide.

They don't give Grey Garden's much of a chance, do they?

I like their previews, they're always interesting.
But where's the Off-B'way preview? It looks like the taxi at the bottom right corner is a link to one, but it's not. Maybe they'll have it soon.


I was just wondering, does anyone else dislike the marquee/poster design for Company?


You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl

"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor

"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl

"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

None of the previews will come up for me. Can anyone help? I am kind of interested in what they say about Les Mis.

It's better than the logo they had in Cinn. with the rings, but it's still pretty awful. I always hated the Sweeney logo/marquee also. I don't think either really capture the productions very well.

Didn't the "The Times They Are A Changin'" have a different logo/marquee too? I don't like the new one.

Hmmm...while reading the High Fidelity description:

"Rob struggles to get over ex-girlfriend Linda..."

Kinda reminds me of Wedding Singer in a way.

Maybe they'll make some changes to it once they see it up on the theater.

I got to see the preview, I am not sure if it was my computer, the web site or what. It has interesting to read about Les Mis, they seem to think it will extend.
