An ensemble cast embodies multiple characters to tell a story that will warm your heart and make you laugh and also WWII makes an appearance (and if there is any justice, both will win the Olivier)
Hadestown program in front of stage
Whatβs on Stage Awards programme in front of stage
Day 2 in London, and OF COURSE had to see Hadestown (first of the trip) with and then headed to the Whatβs On Stage Awards to cheer on all the incredible winners (highlights including the incredible Mel La Barrie and fringe fav Diary of a Gay Disaster)
The script of The Great Comet in front of the stage
A new program of Ballet Shoes in front of a stage
Back in London! Day one was a perfect day of the absolutely charming Ballet Shoes (which got filmed for NT at Home!) and the closing performance of the horniest Great Comet production Iβve ever seen
A lesbian parent travels from the east coast to Eureka, CA and learns to weather the storm (this was my actual, completely unplanned two show day today)
Schmigadoon program
Cast of Schmigadoon takes their bows
Schmigadoon was an absolute delight and exactly the show we need right now and I need everyone to go see it so it goes to Broadway and becomes such a hit that some streaming platform has no choice but to pick of the show for a season 3
Frankly there hasnβt been nearly enough discussion about how this season Tina Landau is directing both Woman in Tree and Man in Cave
Two polar opposite futures where robots try to make sense of human connection
Get yourself to the Kerr to see Hailey Kilgore immediately. OMG
Here for my 20th visit to the underground (and my 12th Orpheus! SO EXCITED TO SEE A SUPRISE TIM ORPHEUS
Joined Rednote and asked everyone what their fav musical is and turns out people in China are HUGE fans of French and German musicals, I found my people!
Finally got to the point Iβm crying at TikTok goodbye videos. We really are losing a whole community and everyone is dispersing across the web or leaving altogether but for the last 5 years we got to gather in our own little corner and it was really freaking special
I did in fact make it to the other show btw
True story: was so stunned by Caroline Bowman as Norma I completely forgot I have another show tonight
Stereophonic closing, Hadestown cast final performance, Caroline Bowman Boulevard. Today is truly a big day to my specific interests
If you love country music and small town feel in a big city vibes, def check out Music City. If you loved The Lonely Few or the tv show Nashville DEFINITELY check it out before it closes March 2
You can listen to 3 of the songs now open.spotify.com/album/3TzcUy...
If you like a) original musicals, b) sapphic love stories, and c) romantic comedies that balance realistic family dynamics and heightened stakes, then HAVE I GOT A SHOW FOR YOU TO LOOK OUT FOR! Loving the premise of CafΓ© con Leche so far, and cannot wait to see this develop
He is always incredible in this show and last night was no exception
Hadestown Playbill
Hadestown cast on stage at the Walter Kerr
First musical of the year and of course it is a return visit to the town of Hades to see Jordan, Maia and Phillip one last time. And it is still an INCREDIBLE SHOW OMG
So happy to revisit English, now as a Pulitzer Prize winner on a Broadway stage, and am happy to report it still is just as stunning and moving as it was before. Itβs a super limited run until March 2 only so PLAN ACCORDINGLY
First show of the year and really started with a banger. What an absolutely captivating piece of theatre, I never once knew where this was headed!
Playbill for Cult of Love
Playbill for The Hills of California
Sorry I missed the overlap with this one but this would have been a fantastic 3 siblings wait for the missing fourth so they can deal with their different traumas and sing in 4 part harmony
Well donβt get Swept Away in a Tempest on a Frozen Twelfth Night or you may be in for a Titanic(que?) Life of Pi
