You know spring on Broadway is almost here when every day, there's a new previews thread 
Previews for the new musical Groundhog Day begin this Thursday, March 16 at the August Wilson Theatre! Featuring a score by Tim Minchin (of Matilda fame) and starring two-time Tony nominee Andy Karl, the production is set to officially open on April 17, 2017 for an open run.
Who's going?!

I have 2 free tickets to the opening tomorrow that I cannot use. Anyone that wants them, FOR FREE (obviously), can message me and I'll transfer them, yada yada yada. Upset I can't make it but don't want the seats to go empty. They are in the center front mezz.
Edit: they have been claimed!

If anyone else has tickets which will go unused, I'd gladly take them off your hands.

I'm going Saturday! Coming from Illinois and am super excited. Unfortunately I have four extra tickets, paid face value of $99.50 and now I am trying to sell for less. PM me or mail me at snicketmom@yahoo.com if anyone wants to make an offer. I'd love to get $75 each at this point, Unfortunately they are physical tickets, so I'd have to meet you somewhere after I arrive Friday afternoon or Saturday before the show.

They're currently holding the show due to technical difficulties. Stopped it right after the opening!

and it begins....
A Chorus Line revival 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. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Are you serious? It's the first preview and you've already condemned the show for having tech issues?

I wonder if they'll restart from the beginning.....and then stop due to technical difficulties....then start from the beginning...then stop due to technical difficulties...then start from the beginning.....

(if they pull the show tonight & invite people to a future performance. maybe they can turn this bit of irony into some brilliant marketing?...)
