"Honey, everything's coming up roses!" - Gypsy

Previews are well under way for the latest Broadway revival of Gypsy, so we're channeling these legendary lyrics by Stephen Sondheim for this week's . Have you seen Audra McDonald shine as Rose yet, or do you plan to soon?

Susan and Betsy enjoyed a weekend in NYC by taking in our Broadway's Beginnings Tour, as well as a performance of Little Shop of Horrors (Westside Theatre), SIX on Broadway, and the Radio City Rockettes. We hope to see you both later this month for Betsy's birthday celebrations!

On Black Friday, Green Team Guide Brady welcomed the Pipkin, Hodge, and Ford families to the Hudson Theatre. This crew was super invested and inquisitive in the restoration of this beautiful Broadway house. It was great to hear these separate families of theatre performers connect over their recent productions of Beauty and the Beast, while looking ahead to The Little Mermaid. Thanks for such an awesome Friday outing, everyone!

The students from Carpe Artista Arts Academy in Nashville, TN were back with us again on Tuesday - this time for a full day of workshops. These students are beyond talented and brought so much joy to our Broadway Up Closer Studios! They began the day singing and dancing with Amanda Lamotte (Hello, Dolly!, Once Upon A Mattress), then worked on some Stage Combat with Judi Lewis-Ockler (Dracula), before finishing with a Song Interpretation Class with AJ Holmes (Kimberly Akimbo) and our very own Green Team Owner Tim Dolan. These kids are always a highlight each year, and we already can't wait to see them again next year!

Green Team Guide Brady's first ever Hudson Theatre Up Close Tour was a great success! This Tuesday visit to the glorious Hudson with the Durbin, Clark, Armstrong, Govern, Taylor, and Barker groups was a blast. These tour-goers were visting the Big Apple from all across the nation, and they were in for a treat as understudy rehearsal even started onstage during their tour. You never know what will happen on a BUC tour! Thanks to everyone for an awesome time!

The St. James Theatre's marquee is algow tonight in honor of the late Gavin Creel, a beloved star and member of our Broadway community. His memorial celebration is fittingly at the St. James, where Gavin performed as part of the revival of Into the Woods during the 2022-2023 season. The entire Broadway Theatre District's lights will dim tomorrow, December 3, to honor Gavin's legacy as a Tony Award winner, activist, and beautiful human. Here's to you, Gavin! #MarqueeMonday
