I can’t speak for the front row, but I loved my experience in the second row - being so close to the actors, seeing their every facial expression and hearing every sigh, made this show even more beautiful on my return trip. I had to look up slightly, but I didn’t find this much of an issue. And it’s only one act!
FWIW, I sat in row L my first visit, and that is also a fantastic seat if you like seeing the whole stage and don’t want to be quite so close.
Let me start by acknowledging, yes, I know there is a dedicated board for West End topics, but it’s rather, um, quiet over there. Also, I’m looking for the perspectives of regular Broadway patrons who have also visited Theatreland. I don’t post terribly often, but I’ve come to value the opinions of many on the Broadway board and would welcome their insights and recommendations.
My wife and I are strongly considering a winter trip to London, which would incl
For what it’s worth, after TBV Tony Shaloub signed my mother-in-law’s Schmackery’s cookie tin. So I’m sure many performers would be willing to sign your cap, particularly when you explain your rationale.

See above. You shouldn’t have any trouble exchanging tickets before noon tomorrow. Good luck and safe travels. You’ll love the show - whenever you get to see it!

Theres a picture on instagram under the imperal theatre location. It looks like the normal merch for any show, but the art thatson the marquee is basiclly on eveything and im obbsesed with it."

I live about 300 miles from NYC, so seeing a Broadway show is a big investment of time, travel, and money. It’s worth it to me to spend extra money for face value tickets so I know in advance I’ll have good seats rather than hoping for a bargain at TKTS, rush tickets, etc. This also means I try not to see a show unless I’m excited about the show, itself. A star performer can get sick any day, and so I can’t justify moving mountains to see a particul
The show’s already started, so maybe this isn’t super helpful. But for what it’s worth:
I don’t usually stage door, but loved this show so much I made an exception. On the Saturday night I attended in December almost everyone came out. The security staff announced early that Katrina Lenk had guests and would not be appearing. Tony Shaloub came out last, maybe 40 minutes after the show. Everyone in the cast was sweet and gracious. Also, the stage door vibe was mu
Let’s say I buy a $30 t-shirt at a show. How is that money split amongst the shirt designer, show’s producers, etc? This may seem like a trivial question to some - or a simple question to those in the industry - but as a fairly regular theatre goer I’m curious about how the business aspect of things like this works. How much of merchandise sales go toward supporting the show, so to speak?

To be fair, that's what most people said about Mike Faist last year. I don't think he's likely to get one over Phillip or Alex, but I wouldn't beshockedif he was nominated."
Connor is much more of a meatful role than Daniel, So Faist has much

I’m glad you’ll see TBV. Those are perfect seats. I saw the show two weeks ago, and it’s even more haunting and beautiful than I had hoped. Less plot-driven than character-driven. A small, bittersweet collection of encounters I found completely engrossi
A springtime NYC trip may be in the works. Absent a miracle bringing HADESTOWN to Broadway before season’s end, I’ll spend my money on either CAROUSEL or MY FAIR LADY.
If you could see one of these revivals - and only one - which would you choose and why?
Kad said: "I was at the final dress last night. The production is in truly fantastic shape; aside from a few minor lighting glitches and some backstage noise, it could’ve been a ticketed public performance well into a run."
This is great to hear. I have tickets for December and am beyond excited. As difficult as it will be, I’ll try to avoid reading much more (reviews, etc) beforehand. This will be my first time seeing a show without hearing much of the m
