Stephen Pasquale to star in NINE at Kennedy Center
 Aug 5 2024, 02:17:04 PM
WaPo review: https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/theater/2024/08/05/nine-review-kennedy-center-steven-pasquale/

Much more positive than I think the show deserves.

I saw the show Sunday night and I completely agree with the other commenters regarding this production. It is over-choreographed and under-rehearsed. There were some lovely moments, but overall it just felt messy.

The choreography felt a lot like the recent Sweeney Todd production on Broadway, which is not surprising given that Sweeney felt a bit like Hamilton choreography taken too far (I thought this might have been a Tommy Kail influence given that he directed both but they had diffe

7 or 8 o’clock curtain?
 Jul 2 2024, 09:41:16 PM
7pm. I live in Philly and a 7pm curtain means I can get the 10pm train home on a two show Wednesday. Otherwise I’m limited to what I can see for the evening show, or I have to drive to Trenton and take the train from there. 7pm is just so much easier all around for me.

I know he had no chance, but I think Brian had one of the best performances I’ve seen in years and he deserved this award.

Agreed! But you’d think they would get an actual football player. Not someone from the Jets. 😜

Whoever is directing this year’s Tonys should be fired before the show even ends. It has been horrible. Between the camera cuts and closeups, the unnecessary spinning on stage, the lighting mistakes, and just the all around bad choices, it’s been embarrassingly bad.

Ah sorry. I’m sure it will be up on YouTube shortly.

Hilty & Simard to lead DEATH BECOMES HER in Chicago spring 2024

They didn’t waste any time. I already got an email with the presale info.

I really love that they’re making changes every day, but I do think they probably could have probably waited an extra few months and done a bit more work. That said, I’ll definitely go see it again in NYC (and I’m trying to figure out if I can make it back to Chicago before it closes).

It’s too bad they aren’t able to get a different Viola. Michelle sounds amazing, but the acting just isn’t there. The material for Viola needs some work, but I don’t think anything will help her. Love the rest of the cast though and I’m excited to see it after they’re even more settled into their characters.


Dame Judi : Trigger Warnings

I don’t get why people get so triggered by trigger warnings. If they don’t apply to you, great. Just ignore them. It’s what I do. If they’re helpful for people to know what’s coming, great. They can read them. A couple of words before a performance/movie/tv show hardly seems like a big deal to me.

I also had wished the large angel grave opened up (almost like the vial container does) to reveal Viola delivering her last lyric. Also, there HAS to be a way to implement the signature ending of the film in there with the two women collapsing down the stairs an

Lol! Sorry - not you!  I meant the poster the person I was replying to was replying to.  (And now my brain is thinking “two guys writing a musical about two guys writing a musical.”)

SIX On Broadway launches Royalty Program with rewards

Seeing a show that many times in one year to get to some of these reward levels is crazy.

Me thinking about how many times I saw the Hello, Dolly! revival: Carry on.


Best Site for Wicked Tickets
 Dec 8 2023, 11:11:46 AM
Every online ticket website will have fees. You can try third party sites like StubHub, but they’re going to have ridiculous fees and it’s unlikely you’ll get a good deal. Wicked is Wicked. Tickets don’t really sell for cheap. You’re most likely going to have to pay full price and the best option for that is going to be Telecharge.

CONFIRMED: CABARET at the August Wilson Theatre, Spring 2024

This was a mild interest show for me when it was announced. I’ve seen clips from the London production and thought they were fine but not a must see. But now with Bebe, it’s definitely a must see.
