Will this follow in the footsteps of The Outsiders, Lempicka and Redwood and head to Broadway next? STAY TUNED!

Day 2 in London, and OF COURSE had to see Hadestown (first of the trip) with and then headed to the What’s On Stage Awards to cheer on all the incredible winners (highlights including the incredible Mel La Barrie and fringe fav Diary of a Gay Disaster)

Back in London! Day one was a perfect day of the absolutely charming Ballet Shoes (which got filmed for NT at Home!) and the closing performance of the horniest Great Comet production I’ve ever seen

Schmigadoon was an absolute delight and exactly the show we need right now and I need everyone to go see it so it goes to Broadway and becomes such a hit that some streaming platform has no choice but to pick of the show for a season 3

Finally got to the point I’m crying at TikTok goodbye videos. We really are losing a whole community and everyone is dispersing across the web or leaving altogether but for the last 5 years we got to gather in our own little corner and it was really freaking special

True story: was so stunned by Caroline Bowman as Norma I completely forgot I have another show tonight

Stereophonic closing, Hadestown cast final performance, Caroline Bowman Boulevard. Today is truly a big day to my specific interests

Kate Reinking @theatreislife.bsky.social · 11/01/2025

If you love country music and small town feel in a big city vibes, def check out Music City. If you loved The Lonely Few or the tv show Nashville DEFINITELY check it out before it closes March 2

Kate Reinking @theatreislife.bsky.social · 10/01/2025

If you like a) original musicals, b) sapphic love stories, and c) romantic comedies that balance realistic family dynamics and heightened stakes, then HAVE I GOT A SHOW FOR YOU TO LOOK OUT FOR! Loving the premise of Café con Leche so far, and cannot wait to see this develop

Kate Reinking @theatreislife.bsky.social · 10/01/2025

First musical of the year and of course it is a return visit to the town of Hades to see Jordan, Maia and Phillip one last time. And it is still an INCREDIBLE SHOW OMG

So happy to revisit English, now as a Pulitzer Prize winner on a Broadway stage, and am happy to report it still is just as stunning and moving as it was before. It’s a super limited run until March 2 only so PLAN ACCORDINGLY

Can’t believe I haven’t seen theatre in over a month but I gotta catch up on the local theatre in Colorado, starting with Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center’s The Little Mermaid (also first program pic on the new phone 🤩)

Kate Reinking @theatreislife.bsky.social · 18/12/2024

Ngl, if the rumors are true I am actually irate that we have gotten to the point that in order for any theatre to be filmed they have to do it in London. Like if we have made it so expensive to do it here in the US than WHAT IS THE POINT. It’s time to renegotiate

Kate Reinking @theatreislife.bsky.social · 17/12/2024

As I start to compile my top shows of 2024 and revisit last year’s list it is incredibly hopeful to see how frustrated I was by new musicals in 2023 and how that really turned around this year. Going to Fringe definitely helped but even Off Broadway and Regional new musicals were a treat this year!

Kate Reinking @theatreislife.bsky.social · 16/12/2024

I will carry you home (to a national tour and subsequent regional productions that I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE)

I’ve only been to 23 of these cites, but I’ve seen theatre in 17 of these which is pretty incredible (someday it will be all 50 states!)

I used to think I was in the know on pop culture and film releases but now I keep seeing trailers for The Bad Guys 2 and what do you mean this is the second film? WTF IS THE BAD GUYS?

Kate Reinking @theatreislife.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

Look, if they are giving us a Wicked marketing break after the Oscars, then the logical solution is have Cynthia and Ari start the promo train back up at the Tonys and drop the trailer then

Kate Reinking @theatreislife.bsky.social · 25/11/2024

I really hope Hollywood takes all the right lessons from Wicked and we get some incredible movie musicals made with this amount of love.

Only down for Wicked pt 3 if they give us the throuple we deserve

MAYBE HAPPY ENDING is the best musical I have seen in a LONG time. I loved every minute of it. That score! That production design! That cast (Helen Shen is a STAR). I cannot recommend it more highly & can't wait to see it again & listen to all those songs on repeat. Go see it if you can!

As a millennial, I’m sorry but there is no way I’m calling posts here a “skeet”. We need to start workshopping better names. We are not going to retroactively change the connotations of Get Low for future generations. I will not be apart of erasing that history!
