Is there somewhere that shows list of performance schedules rather than going to each shows ticket page?

so Phantom is the only show currently with the Thursday matinee?? I wonder why no other show has opted to do the switch? Mamma Mia & Matilda had Thursday matinees last year.

A Chorus Line played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013.

Matilda doesn't even have Wed matinees this time of year...it's the start of school and it's not a time of year that schools do group trips - that usually happens later on... They decided that it was better to do an extra weekend show instead.

Just FYI, I've found that playbill list to be pretty inaccurate. There's nothing better, but you should check individual show websites if there's something you're particularly interested in.

Anyone looking for a Monday slot should consider SLEEP NO MORE if they've never been. For years now, whenever we have a trip to New York that straddles a Monday, SNM has always been our go-to of choice.

I agree with the inaccuracy of the playbill list. It's not always inaccurate, but it CAN be inaccurate right when you need it to be accurate!   Whenever I plan a trip, I make a chart of all my available show slots, then I go to telecharge/ticketmaster and look up each show that I'm possibly considering seeing, and see where they fit in the slots. It helps to make a more informed decision.

I second that.

You could click on the link above....but it looks like only Fully Committed has Friday matinees

 

Lol...and as stated, that seems to be inaccurate moving forward!  (I just looked at their sight since I was pretty sure I had tix to an upcoming Weds matinee.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Thanks Drama. I was unsure of the reliability of Playbill's list too!

no more Friday matinees for FULLY COMMITTED. I think they only did a couple early. It looks like Phantom's the only show still doing Thursday matinees. BEAUTIFUL did a few last summer but doesn't seem to be offering any this summer. HAMILTON does have two Thursday matinees coming up - July 7 & 14.

How about off Broadway shows? I know Cagney is starting Thursday matinees next week. That's what got me to wondering about other current productions.
