Talk:Porgy and Bess

message: According to a book by Howard Pollack, as found on Google, this quote came from an Edward Morrow interview for New Theatre which may have taken Ellington's words beyond what he actually said. While I think the quote should stay because of the ensuing fallout,it might be necessary to reflect who was saying that Ellington had said that> At the least, there wouldn't be the total flip-flop that the article currently claims.MMetro (talk) 02:41, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I was surprised to find no mention of this version which was shortened for sure but authorized by the Gershwin Estate and highly acclaimed by the critics and public allike.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.204.240.162 (talk) 23:49, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Where is the reference to the 2-12 production starring Audra MacDonald, Norm Lewis and Phillip Boykin? 

message: I opened a discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Opera#Porgy_and_Bess regarding whether the version that I saw on PBS on Friday night should be discussed in a subsection of performance history.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 10:15, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  2019-20 revival

message: The second paragraph states that it was not until the Houston revival of 1976 that P&G became widely acclaimed.  However further on the text (properly) clarifies that the 1942 revival and particularly the touring production of 1952-53 were instrumental in cementing this show's renown.  
I leave it to other editors to make any adjustments in the text since my own edits are invariably reversed the next day. Salut ConradArchguy (talk) 05:19, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Second graf 

message: I noticed a page called Porgy (play) which is a stub article of an early version of this play which has most of the same content. Maybe it should be combined into this article? I see no real reason to have them separate. Any thoughts? Buger677 (talk) 21:13, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
