Jordan Catalano said: "I’m also fascinated by what the future holds for this show. I’ve said already I’d put money on a London premiere sooner rather than later but I think like “The Frogs” this is one that won’t be done too frequently."

I’m inclined to agree with one caveat: this is a show that a group of actors in a university or community theatre could make an absolute meal out of. The Frogs not so much. I could see this o

JasonC3 said: "Serious question: if nothing changed about the production or the cast, but this was in a Broadway house, would the ticket price stun you less?

I certainly acknowledge a historical delineation has existed, but for me the investment in the production (cast, staging, orchestra size, et al) matters more than where it is staged when I consider the appropriateness of the ticket price.

This! The production presented is as lavish as any

binau said: "Can anyone talk more about how memorable or not they found the music? What are you looking forward to hearing again? What do you think has potential vs will be soon long forgotten?"

I recorded the show on Thursday night and listened to the music several times yesterday. It's really quite complicated! Someone here earlier discussed the focused and light nature that signifies most late Sondheim, and I'd say that's accurate. The material also ha

lapinitsa said: "I guess it is indicative of exactly how much of a bubble we are all in that after all the frenzy there are still lots of tickets for sale for this while down at The Public, Hell's Kitchen--which we're barely talking about at all--is nearly sold out, with only a handful of tickets available (in ones and twos mostly) for an even smaller handful of performances that are not yet sold out."

Hell’s Kitchen is running for 6-7 weeks compared to

Not sure if that's different from what was used before.

Was anyone else there last night? I'm 99% sure the fi

BTTF runs 980 a week but the license fee is more than 40% of the profit, so they will take a long time to recoup."

Isn’t universal studios a lead producer?

The production still has to pay back a license fee, and it&rsquo

It just feels like such a betrayal for the artistic vision of that production to be staged in such a huge venue.

The only possibility I could see is that they were intending to use it as a big open space and build their own theatre inside of it, which seems so much more complicated and expensive than just using a smaller theatre."

You can probably trace this back to Swea

Not necessarily true. Some musicals that started in London and transfer to Broadway do cast recordings for both shows. Ex. Cats, Les Miz, EVITA, Chess, etc. It just depends on what they do. Don’t just automatically assume t
