I don't remember the exact timing but I think they announced tour dates fairly soon after Broadway performances started so people may have decided to just wait for the tour to come to them (and outside of the last bit in the finale it doesn't seem like the tour is all that scaled down)"

This is a really good point, but I

I stopped by and the one thing that caught my eye was a large Bellroy tote embroidered with the Sweeney Todd revival logo. The logo didn't matter to me, that's a solid brand of bags, but they were gone by the time I asked someone which table they got it from. Bummer, it'd be perfect for grocery shopping. Other than that,  I am now the proud owner of two SpongeBob shirts. Props to NPH working his table. Sad I couldn't find much of anything Tommy

The casting I heard was pretty exciting and should fill theMitzi Newhouse,but I'm not gonna squeal because some other recent McNeal and Floyd Collins casting was set and then fell apart.

Interesting. I heard rumor of this revival over the summer with a few names attached and to be honest,  I wasn't pa

Well, it was just announced that Rob McClure is checking out of the Mrs. Doubtfire tour early next month so ....

I can't believe we are teasing potential Herbies on a Wednesday night but here we are.

Not that great of astart forHills of CaliforniaandYellow Face,but let’s see if some positive buzz can translate into more sales.

Emphatic ending for Eddie + Gayle atCabaret. I assume the numbers for the new leads willbe even higher on a weekly basis!

Mr. Wormwood said: "It's interesting that there hasn't been a rush of end of summer closings this year like some years. The only unplanned closing in July or Aug was The Who's Tommy, right? A lot of shows are still making a go of it."

I'm still salty about losing Tommy earlier than Labor Day, don't remind me.

Heading into the summer I honestly thought BTTF would do similar business to Aladdin and then continue to skate by


Cellino v. Barnes @ Asylum NYC

I saw this a few weeks ago and it was just the right amount of stupid for me to have a great time. The build up to the jingle is palpable and I still chuckle when I think of Cellino opening and closing the safe. I love that there is a full line of merch for this silly show too.

Not trying to be disparaging, but those BTTF numbers make me question how it will manage to get through the fall to the holidays. I was told by a solid source that Boop! was very interested in the Winter Garden, but when they announced the Broadhurst I thought well, BTTF is safe to continue skirting by (for now).
Complete CAROUSEL cast recording on its way
 Aug 2 2024, 02:24:27 PM
I actually really enjoy the Oklahoma! recording because of Hackmann and Parker, but this rendition is underwhelming to my ears. It's fine, but I don't think Nate is quite the right fit for Billy Bigelow. And am I hallucinating or did I have a track of Anthony Warlow performing "Soliloquy" on an old iPod? I'm going to have to dig that out.

"Soliloquy" just dropped today.

I just screamed. I can't believe this is real. At least I have some time to start a slush fund to afford this.

I was low-key kind of hoping Varla would transfer with this because I love his Judas but Cerveris gets me to buy tix too.

Chernow moved into the Dakota this spring so those royalties worked out for him.

I haven't seen BTTF up since earlier this month (July 4th weekend). I can't imagine it won't be listed again this fall but know that the in-person rush is pretty easy to do. I was able to get a $40 rush ticket in the rear orch for Hugh Coles' final performance on June 23rd a few minutes after the box office opened t

It has been on TKTS during the week at around $130 a ticket. The orchestra partial view seats at $59 are quite a good value if they are available.
