Cool Musical Sites

  • Broadway Box
    An uber-site for ticket discounts. Very useful, indeed.
  • Broadway World
    A very cluttered, but also very informative site. Lots of cool videos, for the broadband-enabled.
  • CastAlbums.org
    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 Wicked? Or Jersey Boys? 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.
  • Footlight Records
    Great place to find cast recordings. Best selection on the Web. Speedy service, too.
  • 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.
  • Goldstar
    Find discount tickets to theater and other entertainment events, both in New York and around the country.
  • 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.
  • London Theater
    Planning a trip across the pond? Check out what's playing in London at What's On Stage? Discounted tickets, too.
  • 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.
  • Theater Mania
    Usually has the same info as Playbill, but there are some interesting sub pages, and they actually print reviews.
  • Triton Gallery
    The best place to find theater posters on the Web.

Evil Dead: The Marketing Campaign

To advertise the Toronto run of Evil Dead: The Musical, the marketing staff have come up with a pretty clever poster campaign. You might have seen these before, but I finally found some decent scans and decided to post them. If only the musical itself were even half as clever or as funny as the posters, they might have a winner on their hands. Unfortunately, the musical is a stinker. (Read my review of the Off-Broadway production.)

I love this marketing campaign - very clever! I have no interest in seeing the show but love the graphic design for it!

Well, the good news is that, if you've seen the marketing campaign, you've seen the best that the show has to offer.

Musicals You Should See

  • 13
    A rocking score, a funny book, and appealing cast of (what else?) 13 performers.
  • [title of show]
    A riotously funny book and a terrific cast. A love letter to musical theater. Closes October 12th.
  • Avenue Q
    The original "little show that could." Funny and fresh.
  • Gypsy
    There's much more to this production than La LuPone. Much more.
  • Hair
    A powerful production of an important and entertaining show. The Central Park stint is over, but look for a Broadway bow in 2009.
  • In the Heights
    An exuberant show with a catchy score and a host of appealing performers. Plus, kick-ass dancing.
  • Spring Awakening
    Raw and vital. Full of strong performances and imaginative staging.
  • The Drowsy Chaperone
    The Broadway production, alas, has closed, but you can still see it on tour.
  • 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.
  • Xanadu
    An absolute hoot. Great comic performances and a wildly funny book. The Broadway production has closed, but you can catch it on tour.

"Hey, Chris! When are you seeing...?"
