Faye Dunaway - Sunset Blvd Sep 5

I went the final week at the Shubert: Los Angeles to see the show for the third time. There was an unusually long Cancellation Line that night. Turns out that was the day Dunaway was let go and there was a sudden demand for tickets before it closed.

I saw it in LA and it is terrible. Only someone looking for a Tax Write-Off would invest in this mess.

SWEENEY TODD Revival announces further casting Feb 27
2023, 02:31:58 AM
I saw the 1984 production and remember it was exactly the same as the Broadway production but with more trained voices. I had already seen the original cast twice and this time around was my least favorite.
I looked up the second time NYOC did the show and was surprised Elaine Paige played Mrs. Lovett. Here's a clip of her "Best Pies in London."

Repeat Visits To Shows Feb 24
2019, 02:51:58 PM
I've seen THE BOOK OF MORMON 27 times. I paid full price 3 times and won the lottery 24 times. I live close to the theatre so it's nothing for me to go down for the drawing. There's only about 3 times where the show was off which was usually the fault of various understudies for the Elder Cunningham role I've seen. BOM isn't my favorite show, but it's a damn fine one and a fun, funny night at the theatre. Just hearing the audience react to it is worth it.

Favourite scene transitions? Dec 31
2018, 01:46:09 PM
The first thing I thought was the the transition in GYPSY from the younger to older performers. Even the movie and TV version use it it's so great. No special effects - just a simple strobe. Brilliant!

After tonight I promise you all I will never write another word on this site.
You are all so delicate I don't know how you get through a single day.
I don't want to be the one to set you off. I hope you only you have good experiences.
Bye people bye bye.

It's funny you read it in a racist way. I was talking about kids don't usually take to having a child adopted into their family. I'm just saying it brings up a different history you just can't ignore.
Let me ask.. if the show started and Evan is black and his Mom is white; wouldn't you think "I guess Evan's dad was black." No big deal, but the truth. It doesn't ask you to act blind. It just is.

I knew this was all going to get me in trouble, but in that case "on stage" or "in real life" I'd ask myself - how did that happen? I am over myself, I have no pretences about life? But, I also believe in science and the truth? Yes, we suspend a great deal of reality for the theatre but that doesn't mean we turn stupid when we attend.

I noticed the two understudies for Alana in the Los Angeles production are black. They also are listed as understudies for Zoe. That would play well into Connor not liking her. She would have had to be adopted.
I think Evan as POC is a great idea and an easy one for the producers. It's a small cast to begin with and they'd only have to recast Evan and his mom Heidi.

BOM Nov 12
2018, 06:49:44 PM
I've seen THE BOOK OF MORMON - 28 times. I paid full price 4 times and won the lottery 24 times. I have a Playbill for each time. 95% the show is on, so I'm pretty much guaranteed a good time. I've become a pretty good judge of a BOM audience and they themselves can be quite the Rush!. Great Show!!!!!

Mark it down now, Gaga WILL win the OSCAR for this role. She is magnificent. She not only hits every note, but then nails it to the f'###ng floor. #AMOVIESTARISBORN
