Flash Poll: Which hypothetical musical would you rather see?

May 30, 2017 / elizabethdohertyauthor

Dear readers,

I need your help. I’m currently brainstorming future blogs and novels. As you could probably figure out from this blog, I am a big Broadway fan. In fact, my first series, which will be out later this year, centers around people who work on Broadway. I’m also looking forward to doing more Broadway dreamcasts.

So, for these future projects, I have a question for you. Would you rather see a hypothetical musical/dreamcast about:

1) The Kennedy family and their trials and tribulations

2) Expatriate writers in Paris in the 1920s (Hemingway, Stein, the Fitzgeralds, etc.)

Comment below with what you’d like to see.

Thank you so much!

What Broadway Show Should I Dreamcast Next?

March 21, 2017 / elizabethdohertyauthor

I’ve been thinking I’d like to do another musical dreamcast (for a project that will never be made except in my dreams). When I do dreamcasts, I take a preexisting movie, stage show, or idea, and put in the Broadway actors and actresses that I think would be perfect in the lead roles. I have a few ideas for my next one, and that is where you come in. Should it be…?

Beauty and the Beast: A Broadway Dreamcast

February 14, 2017 / elizabethdohertyauthor

I’m going to do something a little bit different this time. This is going to be the first in my series of Broadway dreamcasts. I love Broadway, and I love dreamcasting, so I figure this is a perfect fit. Today’s dreamcast is Beauty and the Beast. I saw a touring production of it back when I was in junior high school, but more importantly, the movie happens to be my favorite. With all of the hubub about the remake, I thought I’d cast my dream Broadway performers in the roles I picture them in.

Best Broadway Overtures

December 20, 2016 / elizabethdohertyauthor

For my inaugural post on my new website, I decided I would talk about overtures. Overtures set the tone for the movie or the musical or whatever, just like I am (hoping) this post sets the tone for this website. Maybe. I don’t know. So I present to you: My favorite musical overtures (just three this time, no order, because I know there will be more).

#Broadway: What I Saw And Loved November 2016

November 16, 2016 / elizabethdohertyauthor

I got to New York City a few times a year (lucky me!) to get last minute tickets to however many shows I can in whatever time I have. I’ve been doing this a long time and have seen dozens of Broadway and off-Broadway shows. Last week, I made a journey there, where I caught three wonderful shows.
