He does qualify as a Tony winner (for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and Catch Me If You Can) who has done drag (in Is He Dead?). I think he's a great choice for Herbie.

Looking forward to this production.

I would be surprised if he was in this,

It takes time to add that authentic New Orleans flair to the script and score. Have a po boy, Mister Goldstone.

Sutton Ross said: "Ah yes, the top ticket was always 75 dollars for any playon Broadway. Ever. Maybe the Monopoly version you were playing? AlsoHamilton is a musicaland if you think that theirtop ticket in the years I mentioned was ever $75....I honestly don't know what to tell you. Facts matter regardless of your opinion of me being wrong, which I'm not. Just an example of a random February week for Hamilton below.

Denzel Washington to return to Broadway in OTHELLO?

Sutton Ross said: "When "Hamilton" first went on sale to the public, scalpers quickly bought up tickets and resold them for as much as $800

It was way more than that at the peak but the producers of Hamilton actually were selling legit tickets for $749 for premium seats in 2015 - 2017. So, not so recent or just in the past few years. It's always been a thing in the past few decades as you said. Thanks for the info as always, Troy.

There has always beenshows with huge stars that have very expensive tickets, this is nothing new. Currently shows need to be brilliant or have huge stars to make a profit. It's a business and the goal is profit, like any other business.

Plus, there are always promo codes and good deals floating around for many shows out there. Just not t

I was looking forward to this despite disliking the first movie because it sounded so bonkers, but this whole "we're not making a musical it's just characters who sing dialogue" thing that keep saying is souring me on it.

Thank you for this feedback. As much as I love some legends, I’ve seen them before and would prefer to spend my money on a more ‘important/must-see’ piece of work (as a whole). Different strokes.

That's one of the problems of the high ticket prices of today. It becomes h

Funny Girl Tour cast changes.

I'm sorry I missed Katerina; I didn't know she had Thursdays off when I bought the tickets; but I did enjoy Hannah Shankman. She has a strong voice and was impressive in the dramatic scenes; she's not bad in the comic aspects, especially the restaurant scene, I just don't think that's her strongest suit; I was surprised to find myself wondering what Beanie was like here. I was also surprised at how much I enjoyed the second act, since I've never cared for the second ha

The director cast his life partner at the time. And she was awful.

The thing that its fans don't understand is that it is set in the 1920's to the 1940's and Mame's political and artistic passions are both a parody of and an homage to the spirit of those eras. Audiences for the most part would not understand whatis being parodied anymore so you would have to update the entire thing (home for refugee Jewish children becomes

I think Bette is just running her mouth. Twenty years ago she would have been a smashing Mame.

Lady Gaga is Judy Garland of the 21st century, she is an expert vocalist, an expert song writer who is constantly reinventing herself and succeeding every time. She is a skilled actor. A comedian.

Let's be entirely honest, all of Gaga's attempts at acting are cringe as hell. She's camp for sure! Is she a skilled actress? Ehhhhhhh

I knew they wouldn't need a"name" with Denzel and Jake so it doesn't surprise me. The producer said he was looking at West End understudies and stand-bys when casting Desdemona, and her name kept coming up. <

Let's just say I enjoyed my house left partial view seat for The Humans. I had a full view of Reed's butt in those jeans.

Mathew Broderick would be inspired as Herbie. His sad eyes and sweetness could be devastating near the end. I know it's just an idea but it's a good idea.

I'm trying to remember: is the Audra Gypsy the only one of those rumored Rudin future projects that has actually come to fruit
