I saw the show twice in July and both times Barrett wasn't on but her understudies were both equally fantastic. I did prefer Tee Boyich over Gianna Yannelli but they could equally hold their own. As with the rest of the cast, they were collectively amazing. I think this is my favourite cast currently on Broadway.
For what it's worth, I saw Taylor in the show a few weeks back and truthfully his voice at that particular performance wasn't up to scratch. His voice broke on the higher notes which was particularly disappointing after paying so much for our tickets. I understand actors are people too and they have their off days but it just seemed as though he shouldn't have been on at all that evening.
I won the lotto yesterday (well I won by default as they had 50 lotto tickets available which covered the entire crowd) and I thoroughly loved this show. It's really quite beautiful and the staging is very clever. The theatre was about 90% full which was disappointing to see as the show deserves a long run but I'm happy I got the chance to see it. Loren was on and she was fantastic, truly couldn't fault her. Alex killed his performance of 'Mama Will Provide' and there'

I purchased SRO last week. They’d 8 spots available. Cancellation line was long but not everyone was looking for SRO.

What does King Kong have to do with Moulin Rouge?"
Same producers. I did read somewhere that the producers didn’t want to have two productions open in the same season.

I got $75 rush tickets yesterday and we were third row centre of the orchestra. Fantastic seats. Don’t waste your money on the $30 balcony seats. Very obstructed. Fantastic shoe. Pure fun. I really hope it has a healthy run!
Got a partial view rush ticket earlier today. Third row of the balcony for $30 - I wouldn’t recommend these tickets at all. Show is fantastic. Loved everything about it and truly deserves a nice, healthy run! But 100% spend the extra few dollars and get a full view ticket.

Rushed today at 10.45 Pretty busy, busiest I’ve seen it We got 3 partial view tixs in the orchestra! They offered full view at the back of the mezz or partial view in the stalls. Doubtful I’ll miss much as we’re sitting to the far left of the stalls. I’ve seen the show before

Someone posted on IG that they took out a huge chunk of the stage at the St.James to cater for the ice castle coming in! Sounds as though it might be something similar to ‘Pride Rock’. But from the get go, as soon as I heard Denver didn’t have an ‘ice castle’ I knew they were keeping it under wraps until Broadway.
I'm definitely in the minority but I actually enjoyed this show a lot. I went in expecting to hate it and only wanted to see Christian Borle and Jackie Hoffman live but if you allow yourself to go with the show and just have a fun time then that you will have in bucket loads.
I think the cast is working their butt off and bring so much energy to a relatively bland show.

Firstly, Cassie sounds great but I too am underwhelmed by the number.
I have a sneaky suspicion this isn't how it will be on Broadway. Maybe I'll be proven wrong in a couple of months but I just think with the current renovations happening at the St.James that this show will go through some visual changes before it lands here.
But I was about to buy two tickets for the show this Summer and reluctantly didn't because I got side tracked, right now, I'm
