“Even with all these recorded performances, people can enjoy while they’re quarantining, this pandemic has taught me that we will never take the physical togetherness of experiencing live, intimate moments in artistic spaces for granted ever again.”

Youtuber Amy Lovatt recently watched the musical Firebringer and her reactions are priceless!

“It’s okay to concentrate on your health. Theatre will always be waiting for you when you’re ready for it.”

“Nowadays whenever someone runs for public office, their past is rightfully scrutinized and investigated. It doesn’t matter if it’s for president or local PTA officials, what you put on social media could be called into question. And a Florida actor running for Actor Equity’s National Council is finding that out after some problematic tweets from his past have been discovered.”

“As someone who vaguely knew one Cher song — “Believe” — prior to the show, I went only because my southern friend was visiting New York for the first time — this was his trip to my backyard, so he could do whatever he wanted and I would suck it up and go along. Little did I know, my outlook on life (and Cher) would change drastically after stepping into the Neil Simon Theatre on 48th Street.”

“While many consider Meredith Wilson’s classic one of the greatest musicals of all-time, it’s worth taking a look at because it could also be a cautionary tale. It’s basically the story of a con-man who cheats people in Iowa with empty promises and gets away with it. But along with stealing money, he breaks down a woman who should be a championed female character in musical theatre history to a standard cliche.”

“Bad Boys. The ones our mothers warned us away from, but we can’t resist. The world of musicals has a knack for creating male characters we hate to love, giving us eye candy and attitude all in one. But what is it about them that we can’t get enough of?”

“We’ve shared a couple of these videos before but Barrie Kealoha has taken it to a new level with her ‘One-Minute One-Woman’ Youtube series.”

“You’re asking the wrong question if you’re trying to replicate the “live theatre experience” over digital spaces. Instead, ask how does my audience engage with my show’s brand outside of the two hours they’re in the theater (if they ever even see it in person)? How can I extend my show’s brand to different formats I haven’t yet considered or explored?”

“It’s a conversation we’ve been having for a while: What is the best musical of all-time? It’s a question that requires a lot to consider. But OnStage Blog’s Ethan Child attempts to break it down to find an answer.”

“While New York performers and crew eagerly await the opportunity to get back to work, at least their theatre spaces will exist when they do. In Albania, that’s not the case because local authorities just demolished one of its most historic.”

“With folks hunkering down all over the world right now, we’ve been seeing some pretty impressive creative uses of time. Here’s a new one that was particularly fun to watch. “19 Broadway Songs Rewritten for Covid19 Quarantine” is a fun trip through some of our favorite musicals with lyrics adjusted to the present times.”
