That's a Wrap for the "Ghost with the Most"

Huntsville Havoc’s Netherworld Puck drop, 10+ Beetlejuice(s) on Opening Night, Patrons & Cast/Crew members schmoozing over a wall of mimosas… That’s a wrap for BEETLEJUICE!

 

Beginning with the Huntsville Havoc’s BEETLEJUICE Night on November 4th and culminating with the eighth/final performance of the hit Broadway musical comedy on December 3rd, Broadway Theatre League said Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice many MANY more times than three in the past month and we couldn’t have had more fun doing so! And it all started with Beetlejuice and his buddies dropping the game puck at the Havoc game:


If you attended the Opening Night on Tuesday, November 28, then you might have worried about why you were seeing not only double or triple but actually DECUPLE! You are totally fine though because we had 10 young actors running around in front of the Concert Hall getting into all kinds of spooky mischief with our audience members as they arrived to the show. Big shout-out to Luz Ladrillono for helping us achieve this manageable chaos with her LMP students showing off their mad improv skills:


It was definitely a TGIF kind of party with the company of Beetlejuice after the show on December 1st. The drinks were flowing and the midnight breakfast buffet was a huge hit! It's always fun for our community when they get to party with the touring company members. Our good friend Jackson Love was back tickling the ivories and he even closed the evening singing a couple of songs for us.

You might have seen me as Enjolras in Les Misérables, Munkustrap in Cats or Prince Charming in Cinderella. I used to perform in many Broadway Tours all across the country. Now I report on them and give you an insider's view into this unique little world. So, let's talk about all things Broadway!

Come From Away with Sharon Wheatley

  Sharon Wheatley, original Broadway cast member of “Come From Away”,  sets the record straight   Having the distinction of being the only actress who’s performed in the Broadway productions of Les Misérables, The Phantom of the Opera and Cats (the final company) among others, Sharon Wheatley was taking a break from New York City when fate intervened and brought Come From Away and her together. Sharon was living in San Diego in 2015 when she received a Facebook message from a casting director saying that she’s perfect for this new show that is originating there, and they needed a local hire. Well Broadway was calling her back to NYC and the rest is history. What was it about Come From Away that persuaded you back to New York City? Come From Away is not a traditional musical. We just happen to be singing as we tell this beautiful story. There are only three applause breaks in the whole show. This one is special! There have been a couple of misconceptions about this show, fo

11 Broadway Shows in 3 Days… Ready for our reviews?

  You might be thinking how in the world did we see 11 Broadway Shows in 3 Days? Especially when Pretty Woman: The Musical was about to play here in Huntsville for five performances. Well, we divided and conquered is how: half of us flew to NYC for a long weekend, while the other half stayed in Huntsville to prepare for Pretty Woman’s arrival. We’re all exhausted, but we’re all equally inspired! Pretty Woman was a big success. BIG! HUGE! The audiences loved it. And now that they’re off to their next tour stop, I can share our reviews on the 11 shows we saw in NYC: The Great Gatsby : The show was visually stunning. A big splashy Broadway musical for sure with the sets & the costumes, set in the 1920’s, and what a feast for the eyes! Jeremy Jordan was outstanding. We’re still in shock that he didn’t receive a Tony nomination for this one. We highly recommend The Great Gatsby if you’re a fan of the book and/or the movie(s). Andrew pointed out how he’s always felt connected to
