CABARET at the Kit Kat Club (2024) Opening Night Critics' Reviews Aug 17
2024, 05:51:56 PM
Don't have much tos hare about the show itself, but I wanted to share a wild experience I had today. At the matinee of Cabaret today I was seated between an older man on my left and a younger man on my right. During the first act the older man to my left, who appeared to be with his family, took out his phone and started scrolling. Don’t get me wrong, I HATE when people are on their phones, but generally I don’t want to cause a scene so I didn’t say anything. The man to

ONCE UPON A MATTRESS Reviews Aug 16
2024, 03:25:52 PM
I really enjoyed this last night. I've been in the show twice so I know it pretty well and enjoyed the little changes they made, lots of little jokes that I chuckled at. Is this a must see? No, but it's a good time - Just like with Spamalot, Michael Urie stole the show from me! He's such a cutie.

Jason Robert Brown, Taylor Mac, Rob Ashford collaborating on MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL musical adaptation Jul 24

Caught this last night - Didn't really like it. I knew the basic plot of the book but have never read it or seen the movie.
Let's start with the things I enjoyed: Ghee, it goes without saying, is incredible. Great comedic timing from them, and some genuinely funny one-liners as well. The idea of the audience being the author was really cool, I think it's a great way for them to sort of "overexplain" some plot points to make the plot clearer. I want to go against t

Saw this last night and enjoyed it, but it didn't blow me away.
I've never seen (or even heard of before buying tickets) the movie, so I don't know the references and everything, but as people have said, this show is a lot of fun. The book has some great one-liners, which is refreshing after the disastrous cringey stuff that adaptions like Tootsie and Beetlejuice are passing off as jokes (IMO).
The music, unfortunately, didn't do it for me. Thinking ba

Scarywarhol said: "These are incredibly kind. One of the most indefensible shows of my lifetime. Well, the defense seems to be "Removing everything deeply relevant to the world and time we are living in, everything meaningful or creatively exciting from one of the greatest and most widely-read American novels ever and treating the audience like absolute idiots, is just supposed to be FUN. Why can't something just be FUN?" Because terrible, cynically assembled musicals a

Jordan Catalano said: "I am NOT a fan of modern dance. It's just not my jam. I can appreciate it for what it is but it's not something I've ever been able to get into. So going into this tonight I was happy it was only 90 mins - in and out and then I'll have seen everything this season. As we stood up, my friend asked if I was ok. I guess I had been audibly sobbing, my face totally wet. I haven't been moved by something to this degree in quite a while. And like I

Jordan Catalano said: "I went to the matinee today and noticed Jeremy seems to be doing an accent now? But not a consistent one and it’s kind of odd. British one minute, then something else then nothing. I don’t think I’d ever noticed him doing anything like that before in the show."
Oh god...If I see this am I going to get flashbacks to Colton Ryan in "NYNY"? Because I can't handle that again.

Jordan Catalano said: "I went last night and while I liked it well enough, my friend absolutely loved it. So I wasn’t sure what reviews would look like. I did kind of stop for a second whilewatching Carell and Harper, stars of two do the greatest tv shows of all time on stage together and just took a second to recognize how damn cool that was."
Totally agree - I'd never seen the show before and thought it was great in terms of the play itself and perfo

Funniest/Funnest Broadway (or Off) Musical Right Now? Mar 27
2024, 12:01:34 PM
ardiem said: "Oh, Mary! comes to mind but will probably be difficult to rush for and isn't a musical. In terms of what you can find on TKTS today, I'd recommend Dead Outlaw."
IMO Oh, Mary! is one of the funniest shows I've seen in years, and I'm usually a much bigger fan of musicals than plays. But you're right, it will not be easy to rush. Either way, I suggest OP not miss this one.

Future of the Museum of Broadway Feb 28
2024, 04:00:53 PM
Scarywarhol said: "Its is more akin to the Times Square tourist trap model of Madame Tussaud's or Spyscape than actual New York museums showcasing art and knowledge, and this is what's such a bummer. Even or especially if it closes fast, how long does this delay our ever getting a real performing arts museum? So many dreams of what that could look like. For now, folks who want that are better off going to the Lincoln Center library when they have an exhibit on."
