Talk:9 to 5 (musical)

2009 Broadway Planned
I don't see what the problem is with having the 2009 Broadway Planned on this article. This article: also has Broadway Planned and it is still up there.


 * I'll fix it at Shrek. The upcoming Broadway production is discussed in the body of the article.  No need to clutter up the infobox with it.  If the out-of-town tryout bombs, it may never go to Broadway.  See WP:CRYSTAL.  -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:45, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Musical numbers
The show will start in previews on September 9, 2008. Until then,I don't know how to verify the list of musical numbers. (Even then, probably won't get a review until official opening on Sept. 20.)JeanColumbia (talk) 18:32, 5 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Do you have any thoughts on what should be done with them, then? As I said in my edit summary, they look believable enough, but I know looking "believable enough" doesn't exactly work with WP:V. I'd hate to remove helpful information about the show from the article, but at the same time I'd hate to see it filled with inaccuracies. If an established user had been the one to introduce the musical numbers I probably wouldn't have even questioned the songs, but the fact that they were added in an IP's first edit led me to wonder if anyone else could confirm the information. — MearsMan  talk  18:43, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi, MearsMan. Oh, yes, I have a few ideas 1) let's let this jell for a few days and see who else chimes in; 2) we'll get a review or 2 by Sept. 20, so we should be ok then.3) meanwhile, I've put in a weasel word or 2 in the subheading. Feel free to use something else (or to ignore me entirely. (joke). JeanColumbia (talk) 18:52, 5 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey Jean, your suggestions seem reasonable enough. :-) I was caught between simply leaving the list in the article and moving it to the talk page, but this seems like a decent enough compromise. We're no longer trying to pass the information off as if it's the song list, and it shouldn't be too long before we can confirm the it. — MearsMan  talk  19:26, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks to an **unnamed** chat forum, I was led to the program at the Ahmanson Theatre, which has the songs listed (along with the cast/characters). So, the list is referenced. (Of course, this is out-of-town tryouts but that isn't anything we need to think about right now ! JeanColumbia (talk) 18:32, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Reviews
Here's some reviews, if anyone wants to sum up the key points for the article: Annie D (talk) 01:40, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

Drama Desk Award for Outsanding Actress in a Musical
We needed to seperate the women form the parenthesis for the Drama Desk Award for Oustanding Actress in a Musical because one of them might win it.

Plot
Someone needs to add a plot synopsis. I don't want to assume it's the same as the movie and summarize the plot from that. 209.247.22.164 (talk) 15:13, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Why is this relevant?
"Parton was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Song for the film's title tune. The single release of the song went to #1 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, was certified platinum by the RIAA and was nominated for four Grammy Awards, winning two." Can somebody please explain why this information belongs in the article about the musical? 209.247.22.166 (talk) 14:02, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree, deleted same, moved a few bits to the film article (which had most of it already).JeanColumbia (talk) 17:24, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Question: Did the extraordinary popularity of the song lead Parton to think that a musical treatment of the film might be a success? If so, we should say something about that in the background section.  Even if it was not directly a factor in creating the musical, it seems that the musical's score benefits from the get-go by including a #1 song?  All the best, -- Ssilvers (talk) 20:34, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
 * If anyone can find that kind of info, by a WP:RS, would be good to have in the article, but I will not put it in myself, as that would be speculative, or original research, coming from me. I haven't read all of the reviews, has anyone? Could be that some critic has mentioned it.JeanColumbia (talk) 21:46, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Are these relevant?
Are BroadwayWorld.com's 7th Annual Theatre Fans' Choice Awards important enough to list? IMHO, they're not. 209.247.22.164 (talk) 17:50, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
 * They probably fail the WP:NOTABILITY guidelines, but the guidelines for musical theatre articles {WikiProject Musical Theatre/Article Structure) are not at all clear on this. If it were up to me, I would not have them in the article, based on the notability issue, and possibly, violation of: neutral point-of-view (WP:NPOV), "Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information" (WP:INDISCRIMINATE); AND "Wikipedia is not a soapbox" (WP:SOAP, #2). But, ultimately, rather than cite/quote Wiki guidelines and policy, I think that these "Awards" are not worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia, just my plain personal opinion. JeanColumbia (talk) 18:32, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Since we agree, I'm going to be bold and remove them. 209.247.22.164 (talk) 19:12, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
