The cast of Easter Bonnet from 1991 (possibly) this is at the Palace Theatre! (X) Photo from Mike Cline‘s facebook This photo also features: Casey Nicholaw, Rob Ashford, John Ganun, Mike Cline, along with some others. At the time of this photo the Palace Theatre was doing the Will Roger Follies so it is possible Michael was a stand in for another actor for the Easter Bonnet competition because Michael was working on Miss Saigon at the time which he was notoriously known for leaving and working on other projects.

*Companion set with @behind-the-blow 's Best of Matt*

For #4, I present Matt opening BoM with Casey Nicholaw on the official reopening night last November😁🎭 First off, good lord...this man gets better with age, and I'm living for it!!🤩👏 And for him to say that he lost his faith that Broadway would never re-open because of the pandemic was pretty surprising to me. His evolution from being bored out of his mind watching Les Mis with Trey back in the '90s to Broadway advocate and connoisseur is just incredible! And the energy and love that Matt and Casey brought that night is something I'll never forget, and I feel so lucky I got to be a part of it!🤩

"I'm one of those people who thought this night might never happen. I was one of those people, I will say. I lost faith a few times. It's like, 'Is this really gonna happen? Are we really gonna do this? For New York City? For, you know, Broadway? For the, you know, the show? So, umm, I'd lost my faith. But this show's blessed."

still talking about mean girls sorry!!(<- not sorry)

this is probably the only time i will ever say this about any movie musical. but ive seen the stage show and the new movie and i can definitely say i preferred the movie. it fixed so many of my problems with the musical and honestly the story just works better onscreen to me

[honkifyourelonely]

Disney's Hercules will play London's Theatre Royal Drury Lane beginning summer 2025.

This would appear to be the Hamburg staging, with both director and choreographer Casey Nicholaw and choreographer Tanisha Scott returning to work on the London production.

The musical features a book by Robert Horn and Kwame Kwei-Armah, music by Alan Menken, and lyrics by David Zippel.

I believe this is the first Disney musical since Mary Poppins to have a West End run without having first played Broadway. Whether Disney will give Hercules a Broadway run at all at this point remains to be seen.

Some Like It Hot sweeping Tony noms!!

It’s also nominated for Best Book (Matthew Lopez and Amber Ruffin), Best Original Score (Marc Shaiman and Scott Whitman), Best Choreography (Casey Nicholaw), Best Orchestrations (Charlie Rosen and Bryan Carter), Best Scenic Design of a Musical (Scott Pask), Best Costume Design of a Musical (Gregg Barnes), Best Lighting Design of a Musical (Natasha Katz), Best Direction of a Musical (Casey Nicholaw), Best Featured Actress in a Musical (Natasha Yvette Williams), and Best Featured Actor in a Musical (Kevin del Aguila).

BROADWAY SHOWS SET TO PERFORM AT THE MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE ON NOVEMBER 24, 2022:

Funny Girl

"This bittersweet comedy is the story of the indomitable Fanny Brice, a girl from the Lower East Side who dreamed of a life on the stage. Everyone told her she'd never be a star, but then something funny happened—she became one of the most beloved performers in history, shining brighter than the brightest lights of Broadway.

Featuring some of the most iconic songs in theatre history including “Don’t Rain On My Parade,” “I’m the Greatest Star,” and “People,” Michael Mayer’s bold new production marks the first time Funny Girl will return to Broadway since its debut 58 years ago." - Playbill

Some Like it Hot

"The new musical comedy, based on the classic MGM film, has a book by Matthew López and Amber Ruffin, music by Marc Shaiman, and lyrics by Scott Wittman and Shaiman. The world premiere Broadway production will be directed and choreographed by Casey Nicholaw." - Playbill

A Beautiful Noise

"The story of the legendary Neil Diamond comes to life on stage in a gripping and uplifting new musical featuring his hit songs “Sweet Caroline”, “America”, and “Cracklin’ Rosie”. Directed by Tony Award® winner Michael Mayer (Spring Awakening, Hedwig and the Angry Inch), choreographed by Olivier Award winner Steven Hoggett (Once, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child), and written by four-time Academy Award® nominee Anthony McCarten (Bohemian Rhapsody, The Two Popes). Good times never seemed so good." - Playbill

The Lion King

"More than 110 million people around the world have experienced the awe-inspiring visual artistry, the unforgettable music and the uniquely theatrical storytelling of this Broadway spectacular – one of the most breathtaking and beloved productions ever to grace the stage. Winner of 6 Tony Awards, including Best Musical and based on the beloved 1994 Disney film, The Lion King brings together one of the most imaginative creative teams on Broadway. Tony Award-winning director Julie Taymor brings to life a story filled with hope and adventure set against an amazing backdrop of stunning visuals." - Playbill

okay okay since y’all are begging (sarcastic) my Tony Award 2023 predictions (musicals)

Best Musical: Kimberly Akimbo Best Revival: Parade Best Score: Some Like It Hot Best Book: Shucked

(yes rare triple split for book, score, and musical!!) Best Actor in Musical: J Harrison Ghee (this one is tough) Best Actress: Victoria Clark (also tough!) Best Featured Actor: Alex Newell Best Featured Actress: Bonnie Mulligan  Best Director: Michael Arden Best Choreographer: Casey Nicholaw Design ones I haven’t seen enough to guess. I hope they give & Juliet something (costumes??). Sweeney Todd gets sound design maybe?  But yeah, I think lots of love spread around this year (because deserving as this was a really good season but also bonus affect of more shows being able to add “Tony Winner” to their marquee to get box office numbers up and what has been a slump since the pandemic)  Who are y’all’s Tony picks? What performances are you looking forward to? I’m excited to see Into the Woods cast back together (in some extent) for their performance!
