If you do a Google search for "Music Man Telecharge" you can still find some of the page areas - when I clicked into one of them it took me into a ticket queue system for tomorrow. No idea if they'll wind up using the virtual waiting room system tomorrow, but from that, it certainly looks like it.
Is there anyone who has seen this from the front row that can comment on the view? I sat there for The Ferryman and I can't imagine it's much different for this production in terms of stage height, etc., but figured I would ask.

Yes. There are subtitles on either side of the stage that doesn't detract from watching what's happening on stage. And frankly, the acting transcends any language. I don't understand any Yidd
Angels in America, Three Tall Women, The Boys in the Band, and The Ferryman are some that really grabbed me - Ferryman so much so that my friend and I made a second trip to NYC specifically to see it again.
I hadn't seen many plays prior to 2017 (I'm also one of those people more prone to musicals), but have been making a conscious effort to see more. I also saw a local production of The Wolves in Boston that was really well done.

Plus, it seems like they’re pulling out ALL the stops for the stage production. I was thinking of going in August but it’s just SO expensive. (Like seriously. The actual Moulin Rouge in Paris is cheaper...?) Really excited to read what people think after the first preview tonight!"

I've seen it twice with the current cast (and the second time, we made the trip from Boston specifically to see the show again). They are phenomenal.
The Ferryman is a fantastic piece of theater - one of the best plays I've seen. Highly recommend. Haven't seen Hadestown yet myself but all accounts from friends have been positive.
Got my copy in the mail this week - excited to revisit this!
What we are seeing on Broadway in 2019 May 15
2019, 10:01:17 PM
Despite trying to minimize my trips to NYC this year, I’m now returning for 24 hours next weekend to see The Ferryman for a second time with my friend, because we were both so blown away by it when we saw it in March. We’ve also gotten tickets to Frankie & Johnny that day.
We were also finally able to book Hadestown for our October trip, so that will finalize our triad of shows for that weekend (Moulin Rouge and Tootsie being the other two).

I'll throw a vote in for The Ferryman. The current cast is excellent, and the play itself is phenomenal. While a tour has been announced, unfortunately th
Between the two you've listed, I would go with Kiss Me Kate. Saw that in March and very much enjoyed it. King Kong, aside from the puppetry, is a fair mess of a show. From other shows playing currently, My Fair Lady is a wonderful production if you haven't already seen it. Others here have been quick to recommend The Prom and Tootsie as a fun time at the theater, though I can't speak personally to them, as we haven't seen The Prom and aren't seeing Tootsie until October.&n

The people in the audience there sing out loud and talk back more like a concert than a theatrical production. I thought last year when I saw it in Boston that serious theatre audiences will not take kindly to it. But maybe that's what the creative team is going for, to create a more "Moulin Rouge" atmosphere?"
