    A site featuring TV clips from hundreds of Broadway shows. Great stuff.

for colored girls...signs of life?

For colored girlsSomething funny seems to be up with the recently announced Broadway revival of Ntozake Shange's for colored girls who have considered suicide when the rainbow is enuf. The show's Web site, which used to have actual links and information on it, now consists solely of a jpeg of the show's logo.

What's more, tickets to the show were supposed to go on sale to Amex cardholders July 5th. They didn't. Tickets were then to have gone on sale to the general public July 19th. They didn't. The show, which will reportedly star pop singer India.Arie, is scheduled to begin previews at the Circle in the Square August 19 and open September 8th.

Will it?

    Musicals You Should See

    • Avenue Q
      The original "little show that could." Funny and fresh. Now playing Off-Broadway at the New World Stages.
    • Matilda
      Tremendous fun, with stronger stagecraft, finer performances, a bigger heart, and heartier laughs than any other musical this season
    • Nice Work If You Can Get It
      Terrific cast, hilarious book, and Kathleen Marshall's wonderful choreography. And, oh, those Gershwin songs.
    • 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 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.
