Cool Musical Sites

  • Blue Gobo
    A site featuring TV clips from hundreds of Broadway shows. Great stuff.
  • Broadway Box
    An uber-site for ticket discounts. Very useful, indeed.
  • Broadway Stars
    A neat daily roundup of top theater stories. (Doesn't hurt that they include my blog. ::cough cough::)
  • CastAlbumCollector.com
    A comprehensive, and growing, database of cast and theater-related recordings. An online community for the musical-obsessed.
  • Damon Runyon Broadway Tickets
    Want tickets to The Book of Mormon? Or Wicked? If money is no object, check these guys out. Proceeds benefit the Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation.
  • Did He Like It?
    A cool compendium of critical response to Broadway and Off-Broadway shows.
  • Dress Circle
    The shop to visit when you're in London. And, depending on the exchange rate, a great place to find foreign cast recordings.
  • Givenik
    When you buy tickets through Givenik, 5% goes to charity. Show choices are limited, but it's a nice way of diverting funds to a worthy cause.
  • Internet Broadway Database
    An invaluable resource of people, productions, and performance venues.
  • Internet Off-Broadway Database
    Similar to the IBDB, except for Off-Broadway shows, and not quite as comprehensive.
  • Musical Shop
    Another source for foreign cast albums. Smaller selection than Sound of Music, but better prices.
  • Playbill Online
    The best theater site on the Web. News, features, columns, quizzes, contests, discount tickets, and more.
  • Sound Advice
    Talkin' Broadway's list of upcoming cast recordings, books, and DVDs. Updated very regularly.
  • Sound of Music
    Great source of foreign cast albums. Slow service, but, hey, they're shipping this stuff from Germany.
  • StageGrade
    A new-and-improved version of Critic-O-Meter. Provides a useful critical consensus on Broadway and Off Broadway shows.
  • Theater Mania
    Lots of great info on shows and theater people. Plus reviews and ticket discounts.
  • Theatre Monkey
    A independent guide to London theater (Er...excuse me...theatre)
  • Triton Gallery
    The best place to find theater posters on the Web.

Review - The Phantom of the Opera With Norm Lewis and Sierra Boggess

Phantom-of-the-opera-the-musical-broadway-poster-4As I mentioned a while back, I picked up a new gig writing for About.com as the Musical and Theater Expert. I was hoping that the gig wouldn't interfere with my blogging, and so far that has actually been the case. As to whether this will continue as the school year starts up, well, stay tuned. 

I'll still be publishing most of my reviews here on my blog, while at About.com I'll be posting more evergreen stuff about theatergoing in general. One review that I decided to post on About.com was for my recent revisit to The Phantom of the Opera with its new stars, Norm Lewis and Sierra Boggess. Here's a link to that review, as well as to the rest of my About.com postings for August.

Musicals You Should See

  • A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder
    A wonderfully witty and tuneful little show, with a superb cast
  • After Midnight
    A rollicking good time, full of high spirits, fabulous dancing, and classic songs
  • Avenue Q
    The original "little show that could." Funny and fresh. Now playing Off-Broadway at the New World Stages.
  • Beautiful
    A good jukebox musical? No. A great jukebox musical. Great songs, real people, and terrific performances
  • Matilda
    Tremendous fun, with stronger stagecraft, finer performances, a bigger heart, and heartier laughs than any other musical this season
  • Once
    Heartfelt and powerful. Makes you believe again in the power of theater that focuses on people, not spectacle.
  • The Book of Mormon
    Uproariously enjoyable. Profoundly profane, but also surprisingly sweet.
  • The Bridges of Madison County
    A stunning show, with a ravishing score, and two knock-out performances at the center
  • The Fantasticks
    A timeless little gem of a show with a universal message.
  • Wicked
    I'm not ashamed to admit it: I love Wicked. Sure, it's a spectacle, but it's got a brain and a heart, too.
