The musical about screen addiction will be produced by 5000 Broadway Productions.
Lin-Manuel Miranda will be directing the film adaptation of Dave Malloy's Octet.
LMM previously directed the film adaptation of Jonathan Larson's Tick, Tick... Boom!
... How?
Did tumblr know this was happening?
Very cool and good for her, but I do think it's funny to say "making history" about a show that came out less than ten years ago
This is a preview of my project measuring the Billboard Cast Album charts from the start of the year to today. So far I have recorded results up to February 1st.
The charts online show the top 15 every week, but this preview graph only shows the top 7. One might note the stability from the week of January 18th onwards, or that Hamilton, Wicked, and Hadestown continuously maintain positions in the top 3.
Even though I haven't finished recording the charts through the present yet, I want to make some additional notes.
The first is that Wicked's place at #1 in early January is part of a continuous streak reaching back to November, with the album seeing a resurgence since at least last August due to the movie.
The other note is that while I still have a few more months to record, judging by listening habits, the modern musical theatre fandom's tastes were set in 2018 and have largely gone unchanged, with The Outsiders and The Great Gatsby being the only relatively new musicals to maintain spots in the top 15.
Okay, the Wicked movie is pretty good. It definitely feels like half a movie and I'm not a fan of Goldblum as the Wizard, but they somehow managed to stretch act 1 without actually changing much of anything.
2024 Best Musical World Cup - Grand Final
Sweet Charity
Hadestown
HERE'S MY TAKE
If you take every version of Hadestown and pluck out the best bits and smash them together then it's possibly the best musical ever created. But if you're looking at any individual production, especially the Broadway run, then I do think Sweet Charity edges it out!!

The two-time RuPaul's Drag Race winner will be joined by Corbin Bleu, who will return to the Howard Ashman-Alan Menken musical as Seymour.
Jinkx Monsoon and Corbin Bleu begin performances as Little Shop of Horrors' next Audrey and Seymour on April 2nd, replacing Darren Criss and Evan Rachel Wood.
On the subject of movie musicals, I recently rewatched some clips of the Les Mis movie with the news of the rerelease. I think most of the performances range from decent to great. Russell Crowe's Javert is not good, but is not the worst thing in the movie.
Hugh Jackman's Jean Valjean, however, is genuinely one of the worst performances I have ever heard in a movie musical. I don't think Tom Hooper did him any favors, but I genuinely do not think Hugh Jackman can sing the role at all. And I like most of Hugh Jackman's musical performances too! But I absolutely can not stand his Jean Valjean, it doesn't work for me.
Plus, two new plays by Meghan Kennedy and Bess Wohl will make their world premieres.
As part of its 2024-2025 season, Roundabout Theatre Company has announced a Broadway revival of The Pirates of Penzance set to open April 2025 at the American Airlines Theatre, which will be renamed the Todd Haimes next season.
This new production will star Ramin Karimloo as the Pirate King and David Hyde Pierce as the Major General.
The setting has been moved to New Orleans with a newly adapted libretto by Rupert Holmes and new orchestrations by Joseph Joubert and Daryl Waters. Scott Ellis will direct and Warren Carlyle will choreograph.
The Broadway composer plans to turn his musical ''Into the Woods'' into a new CD-ROM game
Apparently back in the 90s Sondheim wanted to make an educational video game based on Into the Woods that would teach musical principles. Evidently it did not pan out.
