BROADWAY RECALL: [title of show] Surfs The Internet To Broadway

If the Vineyard Theatre's Off-Broadway production of [title of show] had concluded its run in 1986, or even 1996, the story of the musical where composer/lyricist Jeff Bowen and bookwriter Hunter Bell played themselves creating the musical that the audience was watching most likely would have ended right there.

Review - A New Gig For Cubby Bernstein?

Michael Reidel reports today that Bebe Neuwirth has been signed to play Morticia in Andrew Lippa, Rick Elice and Marshall Brickman's new Addams Family musical and that Nathan Lane is being sought to play hubby Gomez.  That's all very well and good but the casting coup I'd like to see is Adam “Cubby Bernstein” Riegler for the role of Pugsley.  I first caught Adam at the York Theatre's Mufti production of I And Albert where he absolutely slew the audience as a cockney juvenile delinquent, getting a roar of laughter and a big round of applause for saying one line.  (It wasn't even a funny one.)  I hear Adam has been nabbed for Shrek: The Musical, but maybe his agent can dig up some kind of loophole.  As Lucy Van Pelt says, 'This kind of thing always has a loophole.'
