"Why does the acting in Magic Mike matter, since the musical would use different actors?"
It doesn't. Just had to vent.

TED - THE MUSICAL

So I saw both TED and MAGIC MIKE this weekend, and I have to say a MAGIC MIKE musical, which is already in the works, would be a complete snoozefest. The movie was troubled by bad acting, unlikable characters, and a non-existent plot. TED on the other hand featured some hysterical moments and an over-the-top premise that often works on the stage. Bottom line: it was entertaining. My boyfriend and I walked out of the movie theater hoping that Robert Lopez and Seth MacFarlane are talking to one an

HOW TO SUCCEED Begins Previews Tonight!

Breaking news: Last night's 1st preview of H2S was stopped for 20 minutes just 5 minutes into the show. As Daniel Radcliffe descended over the audience on an elaborate window-washing set piece, the cables got crossed, and Daniel was suspended upside-down over the audience for 20 minutes. Director Rob Ashford has been quoted saying, "I know it's a Pulitzer Prize and Tony award winning musical, but I want to try this with shear spectacle, safety of my actors be damned. Give Daniel a broom and h

I disagree. I think it could work. Nellie truly doesn't believe she's racist at all. It's not until the end of the 1st act when she meets Emile's half-Polynesian children that she starts to realize that she's prejudiced. I personally don't think Nellie's the kind of character who has a problem with anyone who's not her color. I think she just has a problem with people of THAT color, probably because of the war. Polynesians look an awful lot like Japanese, especially to a "little hick" from

I'm guessing many people here will disagree with me, but wouldn't it be interesting to see an African-American woman play Nellie in "South Pacific"?

Cut Songs Audio Recordings

Just wondering if anyone knows of a good place to go to find good audio recordings of songs cut from out-of-town tryouts or previews. I don't care if the recordings are live or not as long as their good quality, and I'd really like to find ones for the following shows...
Shrek
Wicked
9 to 5
Addam's Family

New BYE BYE BIRDIE film in the works; Shankman at helm?

"Fresh and current" doesn't mean that it will be updated to take place in 2010. The movie version of CHICAGO was very fresh, current, and relevant, and yet the setting was exactly the same as the show.

Here's one change ALW needs to make: Cut the character of Meg altogether. Meg as the villain just doesn't work. So cut her and add Carlotta. That diva has a bone to pick with both the Phantom and Christine (one killed her husband, the other stole her job), and I'm sure she'd travel to New York to get her revenge.

Does anyone have a copy of the Australian Cast of Beauty and the Beast or know where to find one? I'd love a copy, but it seems impossible to find.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys. And to BrodyFosse123, chewy5000, and Stage Door Sally, thanks for your thoughts on the vids. I understand you didn't like it, but really, I see a compliment in there. If you think my voice isn't suitable for Broadway tunes, then I think I did my job as Carol

Hahahaha JP, think we could do a Carol/Harvey duet? I'm thinking "Sue Me" from Guys and Dolls, "Do You Love Me" from Fiddler on the Roof, or "Tonight" from West Side Story

I took my boyfriend to see "First Wives Club" in San Diego for his birthday. We walked out of the show knowing that the rest of his 26th year could only go up from there.
Now to get this thread back on track, here are some songs I want to do as Carol...
“My New Philosophy” from You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown
“A Call From the Vatican” from Nine
“Aquarius” from Hair
“Getting Married Today” from Company
“Pick a Little, Talk a Little” from The Music Man
“Wouldn’t it be Loverly” from My Fair Lady
“My Strongest Suit” from Aida
“And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going” from Dreamgirls
“I Enjoy Being a Girl” from Flower Drum Song
More suggestions are welcome

Pgenre, First Wives Club is awful/hysterical (without meaning to be so) no matter who stars in it.
Links will be posted once I make a few videos. Just did the audio today for "Today 4 U"
