I love broadway so much and this was a very interesting video. Hamilton is probably my favorite musical of all time, but I do know the real history of the founding fathers and the ones who owned slaves. However, even though it’s good to know the history behind our founders, I hope the people who watch and love Hamilton will be able to enjoy the brilliant art of Hamilton while still being able to separate the art from the history. It’s a musical, not a documentary.

I do like that some theaters hire interpreters to sign for deaf/hard of hearing patrons during the whole show, standing next to the stage with a small spotlight and being noted by the cast for applause at the end. As a hearing-impaired theater goer, I've never had to use an interpreter because I wear hearing aids and I can't use ASL due to having misshaped fingers, but I'm still touched that my fellow hearing-impaired individuals are being accommodated.

It's most to the fact that alot of people were underwhelmed by beanie feldstein performance as fanny considering the role is super hard to play vocally (and the fact there was a bit of nepotism in there since her parents helped produce the remake and all that jazz. Though the same could be said about lea since she could sing fanny well in glee.) But yeah, as much as I like lea singing I feel like the producers should've gotten Julie Benko to play the role permanently.

I saw both versions of Spider-Man: Into the Dark... The second version was definitely better, but couldn't save the show. You could tell they were forced to use the left over props from the first version of the story, and it made it weaker. I did feel sorry for the one actress who played Arachne, because her character basically got cut from a feature role to a bit part.

How is it that all the other “scandals” included (I assume) all the info whereas the Funny Girl scandal ignored the entire “Lea Michelle treated all other actors not considered to be at her level like utter crap”. This was not just something one person said, like a cast member who wished she had gotten more show time. Many ppl from Glee spoke up to verify that Lea did indeed treat Glee like her own little fiefdom and most of the rest of the cast, Gen’ly unknowns except for very few, were too scared to speak up. Of course, Jonathan Groff was treated well bc they starred together on Broadway & the so-called scandal doesn’t take away from Lea’s amazing vocal talent, but there was no mention whatsoever of this in your video and it’s glaringly missing. 😳😳😳

I mean, the Rebecca segment and Patti Lupone mention are both misleading/leaving out a huge amount of information, since the Patti thing is largely due to it being realized that her heroic screeching at someone recording her performance was actually her shouting at a reporter SHE HIRED and this was brought to light because people viewed the bitch in Hadestown as trying to be like her. As for Rebecca, the segment seems like the people trying to bring Rebecca over knew about the fake investors when, in fact, they were victims in the whole thing, but I don't know why anyone, myself included, expected this video to be well made.

@@maryfischer875 I never implied that Lea Michelle wasn’t up to taking over Funny Girl; to the contrary, my comment specifically noted her unbelievably amazing vocal talent. All I said was that by *not commenting on the entire Glee controversy* at the time in which this was happening, the video wasn’t telling the entire story. The title of the video was *Top 10 B’way Scandals…* and yet, when supposedly discussing the scandal, the biggest part was left out. The scandal wasn’t truly that LM took over from BF. The *real* scandal was the extremely bad buzz coming from numerous former Glee performers who felt that this was just another example of LM’s Golden life wherein she treated others like dirt beneath her feet. And worse than that was the edge to the story that the ppl treated the worst were *ppl of color* . When things like that are merely swept under the rug, you know that there will ultimately be a reckoning down the road.

@Watchmojo. For Great Comet, you conveniently left out the part where producers gave Okieriete an abundance of time to learn how to play accordion for the role, which he did not learn in time to start. They rushed Mandy Patinkin in temporarily to keep the show running, while ensuring Okieriete would still be allowed to lead the show once he learned it. This had nothing to do with stunt casting for ticket sales. Okieriete misperceived and took insult to the situation, cried “racism” online, friends of his exacerbated the problem into a cancelling of the show, causing Mandy to withdraw, and thus the show had to close. All because Okieriete couldn’t stop his pride from getting in the way from learning the part in time. Don’t gloss over the facts, Watchmojo.

Exactly. The dude didn’t learn his role. They did everything they could to make it work. It was a huge role with many moving parts for the character (Piano, Accordion, etc). Will forever not forgive the people claiming racism for his firing/departure including Erivro right across the street in the color purple, leading to the wrongful protesting of the show claiming racism. It was far from it. Saw it with Groban & Benton in the lead and it was absolutely magical. One of the biggest shame I ever witnessed.

I definitely think it is important that they kept Jo as non binary because representation matters. That being said, I don't agree that Lauren Patten should have to give back her awards. I think she earned them. And people saying that she is not being supportive because she won't do that is faulting the wrong person IMO. It should not be the fault of the actress but of the creative team. Especially because of the creative teams treatment of the real performers like Nora Schell who got told many times that their surgery was necessary and important by doctors but received no support from the creatives. #4 St. Martin's digs at swings and understudies was so heartbreaking. In my experience, so many times I have seen shows with understudies or swings in a role and they kill it. Would I have liked to see the lead? Sure but I've never been disappointed by an understudy's performance so I don't know where she was getting her statistics. I haven't heard of some of these. I love Rebecca the musical and saw clips of the Vienna production. Had no idea about the fraud investors but that makes so much more sense to me now. YIKES

In addition to the discussion of accessibility with Hadestown- can we also talk about the constant vilification of people of color in this industry? The person in question posted how events unfolded, letting their emotions get in the way of telling the sequence of events accurately, which led to the actor getting hate messages and death threats. If it was a white actor, would the same reaction towards them be had? I can not honestly say that it would be.

The show was AMAZING and everyone was crying. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house. It is amazing, but Beetlejuice is really good. I actually know the person who played Lydia (Elizabeth) so it’s complicated. But *yes I understand I will get controversial comments* I love Music man more then any other musical. Even Les mis which I consider one of the best musicals of all time. But what’s your opinion? Also I love love love love what Hugh Jackman said about the swings. They don’t get chances in the studio to practice, they watch and are just expected to be perfect when they only get to know if they would play the part 2 hours before the show. They are incredibly important.

I can't fathom how the regular guy could have been any better. I felt as though we lucked out, actually.

I thought he was like 36... not 29) compared to a young 22 in DEH musical. Yes in Grease everyone was much older. Olivia Newton John in particular was the same age as Ben was in the DEH movie (she was 30) and Stockard Channing (Rizzo) was 34. BUT Grease is a rom com and can laugh at itself. DEH is a drama which is too serious to do that.

Okay, I would like to know why it was so terribly wrong to replace Okieriete Onaodowan with Mandy Patinkin, yet it was perfectly fine to replace Josh Groban with Okieriete Onadowan? Double standards anyone?

Funny how MsMojo shows Patti Lupone as being so concerned about ticket prices but completely bypasses how incredibly woke she is. It’s thought to be too woke for Broadway.

Just what so with Hamilton in regards to the slavery issue? How did it “erase” the era’s horrors? The clips make it clear the show acknowledged the existence of slavery. What was so bad? Especially considering that they cast black actors to play white founders.

Half of these “scandals” are because they show, the cast, or the casting isn’t woke enough, and the woke brigade went after it.
