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.
  • CastAlbumCollector.com
    A comprehensive, and growing, database of cast and theater-related recordings. An online community for the musical-obsessed.
  • Critic-O-Meter
    Creates composite grades for the critical response to Broadway and Off-Broadway shows.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

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. See it before it closes September 13th.
    • Hair
      A powerful production of an important and entertaining show. Even better on Broadway.
    • Next to Normal
      A stirring, heartrending show, with terrific performances, and an electrifying score. The message may be suspect, but the talent is undeniable.
    • Rock of Ages
      An infectious, good time of a show. Surprisingly funny and sweet.
    • Spring Awakening
      Raw and vital. Full of strong performances and imaginative staging. The Broadway production has closed, but you can still catch it on tour.
    • The Fantasticks
      A timeless little gem of a show with a universal message.
    • West Side Story
      A dynamite cast, that amazing score, and Jerome Robbins' original choreography lovingly recreated. 'Nuff said.
    • 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.

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