WATCH THE TRAILER FOR LES MISERABLES

SOLD! I am really excited for this movie. The trialer gave me chills. What more do I want? Anne Hathaway is featured singing I Dreamed a Dream in the trailer for the Les Mis movie, coming out at Christmas, and we get a peek at Hugh Jackman, Amanda Seyfried, Russell Crowe and all the other big players in the screen adaptation of the Broadway musical giant. Looks like they are giving us 1800's

TAYLOR SWIFT NOT DOING THE LES MIZ MOVIE AFTER ALL

Taylor Swift, the eternally-surprised country starlet, was widely believed to be the choice for pivotal role of Eponine in the Toby Hooper movie production of Les Miserables, but turns out, she AIN'T! Producer Cameron Mackintosh announced the cast today and the role is being played by British actress Samantha Barks. Barks has a musical background, currently starring in the stage production of

GLEE CASTS RACHEL'S TWO DADS!

And it's kinda genius. Rachel Berry, as all we Gleeks know, has two dads. We haven't seen hide-nor-hair of them since the show debuted, but finally, this Valentine's day, we meet Hiram and LeRoy Berry (ha), played by none other than Jeff Goldblum and Broadway veteran Brian Stokes Mitchell. And they're going to sing. DUH! I have been wondering who they would cast as Rachel's gay dads, and this is

NICOLE SCHERZINGER ROCKS PHANTOM OF OPERA AT ROYAL VARIETY PERFORMANCE 2011

WOW! Who knew she had it in her? Watch the former Pussycat Doll sing the title track from Phantom of the Opera with a few of the shows most famed Phantoms. She kills it!! This girl has talent and nerve. Don't know many pop stars who could OR would attempt this. Check it out below.

TRAILER FOR ROCK OF AGES

The jukebox musical is once again hitting the big screen, this time with Rock of Ages. I saw this show on Broadway and I love it, love it!!! It's funny, of course the music is great, and it's "nothing but a good time". I'm not overwhelmed by the trailer, but it's okay. It seems to be taking things a bit more seriously. Hmmm... Alec Baldwin looks funny, Catherine Zeta-Jones is working her best

THEATRE REVIEW: SEMINAR

"There's only one thing harder than writing your first novel. Letting him read it." Last night I had the privilege of seeing Seminar, now in previews at the Golden Theatre on 45th street. The show is about a group of four fledgling writers who have paid a hefty sum to take a seminar (see how they did that?) with a notoriously tough writer/teacher played by the fantastically acerbic Alan Rickman

REVIEW: "STANDING ON CEREMONY: THE GAY MARRIAGE PLAYS"

Last night I attended Standing On Ceremony: The Gay Marriage Plays at the Minetta Lane Theatre here in NYC. The show is a series of short plays about the ongoing battle all over the United States to secure equal rights for the LGBT community to marry the person they love. Gosh, what will we want next? The right to vote? Ha. Anyway, SOC was truly an inspiring reading of nine different short plays

WATCH SARAH SILVERMAN'S HILARIOUS BROADWAY MEDLEY

It's not THAT bad actually. Ha. Sarah Silverman proves she is a theatre geek by doing a little Broadway Medley with Seth Rudetsky on SiriusXM. Her On My Own from Les Miz is a class is serio-comic singing. I get a kick out of it. It's nice to see Sarah doing something besides her usual sarcastic humor, although I adore that too. In that genre, she does a great Ladies Who Lunch. LOVE!!!! There's
