There´s a video, check it out www.huffingtonpost.com/rachel-chang/full-house-bros-john-stam_b_3052197.htmlFull House Bros John Stamos and Bob Saget Get 'Lucky' with Tom Hanks by Rachel Chang Posted: 04/10/2013 ... After the curtain call, the cast of Lucky Guy -- including Christopher McDonald, Christopher B. Vance, Peter Gerety, Hanks' Bosom Buddies and That Thing You Do! co-star Peter Scolari, and Stamos' ER co-star Maura Tierney -- stayed on stage to solicit donations for the fourth day of the Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS campaign. Hanks gave the audience permission to take their cameras out and auctioned off a "one of a kind" signed reporter's notebook used in the play. The bidding started at $100 and quickly skyrocketed... as Stamos shot his hand in the air, followed by Saget. ...

Broadway review: Tom Hanks is 'Lucky Guy' in Ephron playBy Isa Goldberg - 04/12/13 ... Still, one of the most credible performances in this production is Maura Tierney as McAlary's wife, a role in which she is simply down to earth as well as ruthlessly challenging. In addition, the team of reporters and editors in the newsroom make for the feisty, humorous ongoing life of the play. ... www.recordonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20130412/ENTERTAIN/304120303/-1/SITEMAP

Will Lucky Guy, Starring Tom Hanks, Transfer to the West End? Tom Hanks made his Broadway debut earlier this spring in Nora Ephron’s Lucky Guy, and now the A-lister may have another splashy stage debut up his sleeve. The U.K.’s Daily Mail reports that Hanks is in early talks to transfer with the Tony-nominated play to the West End as early as spring 2014. A rep for the Broadway production declined to comment. Hanks received a Tony nomination for his role as famed tabloid columnist Mike McAlary, whose coverage of the corrupt police beat in New York City in the late ‘80s and ‘90s earned him a Pulitzer Prize and a place in the national spotlight. The show opened on April 1 at the Broadhurst Theatre and will play a recently extended limited engagement through July 3. Joining Hanks in the George C. Wolfe-directed show are fellow Tony nominee Courtney B. Vance, Maura Tierney, Christopher McDonald and Peter Scolari, as well as Peter Gerety, Michael Gaston, Brian Dykstra, Dustyn Gulledge, Danny Mastrogiorgio, Stephen Tyrone Williams, Deirdre Lovejoy, Andrew Hovelson and Richard Masur. In addition to Hanks and Vance’s acting nominations, Lucky Guy also earned nods for Best Play, Best Direction, Best Scenic Design of a Play and Best Lighting Design of a Play. www.broadway.com/buzz/169576/will-lucky-guy-starring-tom-hanks-transfer-to-the-west-end/

A Write Teacher(s) Review: LUCKY GUYMAY 31, 2013 BY ADMIN Hello Beautiful People, It’s been almost one week since I went to the Broadhurst Theatre and my mind blown by the entire cast and crew of LUCKY GUY. For those of you who don’t know, the outstandingly talented Nora Ephron was once a reporter for The New York Post before she started to pen screenplays and stage plays. LUCKY GUY, written by the late Nora Ephron, is about the scandalous and somewhat seedy scape of New York of the 1980′s and ’90s, as told through the story of the larger than life, controversial tabloid columnist Mike McAlary, who won the Pulitzer Prize shortly before his untimely death on Christmas Day, 1998. I first heard of this show when the talented Brian Dykstra, was so gracious to participate in our Actors & Actresses Q&A Series. Brian mentioned how Nora had given George C. Wolfe permission to change things in the script should problems arise. Dykstra also stated that, “Nora left us a really wonderful working script, and if there were changes, they were cosmetic and they were done with her blessing. Everyone is doing this play is truly doing it out a labor of love for the story, for the craft, and for those who knew her, they’re doing it for Nora.” The minimal changes are truly a testament to her unending skill as a writer – the play is that good. There’s a reason it’s nominated for six Tony Awards: Best Play, Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Play (Tom Hanks), Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Role in a Play (Courtney B. Vance), Best Direction of a Play, (George C. Wolfe), Lighting Design of a Play, (Jules Fisher and Peggy Eisenhauer), and Scenic Design of a Play, (David Rockwell). If there were an award for Best Ensemble I have no doubt that Lucky Guy would be nominated, as the entire cast is a well oiled machine. They are seamless in their interactions, in their chemistry, and in bringing these characters and the newsrooms of the 1980′s and ’90s to life. Deirdre Lovejoy does an exquisite job of bringing Louise Imerman and Debby Krenek to life. I hated Louise. I adored Debby. If that’s not the work of theatrical mastery, I don’t know what is. Tom Hanks is delightful in his portrayal of Mike McAlary – you just love to hate him, and yet, there are moments of tenderness, moments of utter sincerity, moments confirm his rightful status as one of the greatest actors of our time. My favorite scene, by far, is when he and Courtney B. Vance are both getting chemo. From the dialogue, to the delivery, to the lighting, to the scenic elements…it’s what great theater is all about. I have no idea who Alice McAlary was, I never heard her speak, I’ve never seen a picture. But she was a woman married to a difficult man, whom she loved, despite his rather undesirable behavior at times. She was the mother of four children. She was a fighter. She was the McAlary Family anchor, and Maura Tierney did a brilliant job of bringing her to life onstage. Brilliant. To the amazing cast - Tom Hanks, Maura Tierney, Christopher McDonald, Peter Gerety, Courtney B. Vance, Peter Scolari, Richard Masur, Brian Dykstra, Michael Gaston, Dustyn Gulledge, Andrew Hovelson, Deirdre Lovejoy, Danny Mastrogiorgio, Stephen Tyrone Williams, Paula Jon DeRose, Joe Forbrich, Thomas Michael Hammond, and Marc Damon Johnson – I am in awe of each and every one of you. I am inspired by each and every one of you. The Broadway community is better because of each and every one of you. Nora touched on a beautiful thing with LUCKY GUY, forcing us to ask ourselves – what has the “news” become? When we open the paper, when we turn on the 11 o’clock news, when we tune into CNN or FOX – what do we see? Is it news? Is it sensationalism? Is it, as Michael Moore would say, Disaster Porn? Have the networks and newsrooms lost sight of their purpose, and sold their souls to reality television and tabloid media? These are the questions that popped into my head, and the ones that peppered my dinner conversation afterwards. That, dear friends, is what great theater is all about – IT MAKES YOU THINK. To the cast, crew, & creative team of LUCKY GUY, it was an honor to see the show, and to meet (almost) all of you. www.thewriteteachers.com/?p=3566

Here is some exciting news about Maura & her fan mail she has received at "Lucky Guy". She has honored two through the mail request on the autograph collecting website I use- startiger.com. These are the first mail autograph request I have ever seen from her and I think it is great & cool of her to change her mind on mail request even if it is just for the run of the play.
From what the members who got her auto back was she signed one photo for each because one member sent her 2 photos and she signed one for him. I'm debating if I want to send her one of the many photos I would love to have her sign. But I'm getting the feeling that she will get bombarted with request from other startiger members.

OMG, she looks so happy.
Maybe it´s just me, but I think she should have her own Tony. If, for nothing else, because the Tony and her jewelry combine perfectly. I´m not lying, take a look at the picture!
