Broadway Club

[AmandaSparks730]

Glad you liked the show Amanda! It really is amazing, isn't it?

And I loooove that snow globe! I got a Broadway Cares ornament for Christmas. My mom and I were looking at the snow globe in a little magazine we got in the mail, but we didn't get it. It'll have to be a b-day present *waits till October*

Thanks! And thanks to the OP, as well. It is truly amazing. I only have the BC t-shirt, but I'm dying for more things! BTW, where did you get the icons in your sig? I love them!!

oh wow.
Theres a new musical coming out, and its getting its previews right here in Dublin, Ireland before it goes to the west end!
its Sleeping Beauty the Musical, and the book seems pretty good-
its about a librarian

I really like that music! If only I could get to the West End to see it. Someday...

There's going to be Shrek the Musical.

WOW.

WOW.

Ive known this for a while now. Throughout the workshops a really good cast of people have been involved.

Rumor has it Sutton Foster will be Fiona...who knows if that is true. But it might give this musical hope.

Shrek just doesn't scream Broadway Musical to me.

 

[AmandaSparks730]

Me, either, Princess Dot.

What next? Seriously. Now, I don't mind Legally Blonde being turned into a musical (in fact, after my skeptic over it, I thouroughly enjoyed it!).

But Shrek? Ya gotta be kidding.

They're taking RENT off Broadway...and putting Shrek on.

Where is the justice in this, I ask of you?

now I'm not into this, and I wouldn't go to it personally, but it is based moreso on the book than on the movies.
We will just have to see how it turns out

 

[AmandaSparks730]

We'll see boys...we'll see booooooyssss...*dances around, singing RENT songs*

Wow, I didn't know about that but I am seriously upset about that! There is absolutley no justice in that!


RENT RULES(sorry, needed to state that!)

I was just thinking the same thing...I've heard about this for a long time, on and off, and it's really weird. I can see maybe Mulan, or Anastasia, or anything else, but not Shrek. And yeah, I also heard about Sutton as Fiona. Eh.

 

[SplshMtnLvr28]

I know. =/

As much as I don't want Rent to close, I think it's time. Even though I was like, hysterical when I heard it was going to close, I think I'd rather have it go out with a bang then slowly putter out. The Nederlander's been less than 50% full lately, even after Adam and Anthony coming back. Ticket sales have shot up because of the closing, which is good. And Jeffery Seller is 100% right in the statement he made on the Rent site, it is comforting to know that Rent is there, even though some of us may be hundreds of miles away from the Neder. And I think some of the Renthead community have kind of calmed down because of Jeffery Seller's comments, since he's been with Rent forever, and Adam Pascal's blog about the closing on his website.

Unfortunately, even though Rent is really cheap to run (minimal costumes, sets, props), it hasn't been making money, and no income=no Rent, sadly.

But Adam is right, we do have the (hopefully) revival to look forward to in years to come, and there's always the tour!

I think I have to see it just because Haven Burton is going to be the Gingerbread Man.

Has anyone seen her in Legally Blonde?

I always thought Anastacia would make a good musical. They could really focus on the history and less on the disney'fied "everything is happy in la la land" story line.

I never really got this. I sound like an idiot but what tour?

 

[Maleficent909TL]

There's been a change in the New York plans; some woman told Mom that it was near impossible to get Wicked tickets, so she's decided to go after RENT. But with it closing, do you think we'll be able to get four tickets for the first week of April?

And if not, what do you all recommend seeing? I would say Spring Awakening, but Dad wouldn't be up for it...

And let me just say: Shrek? On Broadway? Wha'?

 

[::Snow_White::]

It's getting closer to our Wicked trip!!
I'm so excited!
I'm reading the book right now. It's pretty good.

 

[AmandaSparks730]

StitchfansJr, where'd you get those fantasmical icons?! I love them! Maybe cuz I loverr Mark, but still. I want one, too! LOL. Still, love your siggie! And what tour? The RENT tour! It's going on now! In fact, I just saw it last Saturday! It's amazing!

 

[AmandaSparks730]
