I hope you don't go around scavenging for Elphaba's Leotard.

Good Hotels near the Theatre district?  Jul 30 2018, 10:50:31 PM
I see shows daily when visiting NY, so to help manage my budget, I stay in Flushing, at the end of the 7 line.

Priceline Express Deals are a good value. I have stayed at the Asiatic, the Best Western near Prince Street, Hotel Marco, and even the Y on Northern Blvd.



Going Marie's Crisis: yay or nay?  Jul 30 2018, 12:14:35 PM

Wick3 said: "... If Marie's Crisis is too crowded or you just want to sit down, other piano bars in the city that I like going to are Duplex (village---2 drink minimum), Monster (village), Townhouse (east side), and Uncle Charlie's (east side.)"

I second Wick3's recommendations.

Townhouse and The Monster are 2 of my favorites for Broadway piano music.

Most creative/interesting curtain calls you've seen?  Jul 28 2018, 06:14:22 PM
Well, my answer is very incomplete because I do not remember the show title, nor the theatre, nor the year!

But it was definitely in Chicago maybe 20 or 25 years ago either at Victory Gardens or Body Politic.

There may have been 4 to 6 performers in the dramatic play. The show was a satisfying downer.

At the end of the play, the performers slowly came out one at a time - stone faced with blank looks - then as soon as the stage was full, the performers slowly exited th


Looking for: 1 ticket to SWEENEY TODD Tonight!  Jul 24 2018, 04:11:17 PM

Stand outside the theatre tonight with a sign that says I Need One Ticket. That way, you will probably reach every possible Tuesday night audience member who may be carrying an extra ticket.

There's a Chase ATM nearby if needed.



Mamma Mia-- the Bollywood Musical  Jul 23 2018, 08:06:39 PM
The sound is rotten. A character's voice INSIDE a Greek bar then OUTSIDE on a boat should not have the same one-dimensional sound quality.

re: Tipping ushers at Broadway theaters?  Jul 20 2018, 03:26:28 PM

BroadwayNYC2 said: "...why did you bump this thread from 11 years ago"

Because the 11 year old Starlight Express thread had gone off the rails.



Is it possible two rushs in one day? Which shows?  Jul 17 2018, 10:43:44 PM

BroadwayNoob said: "By next October, you mean October 2019 right? ..."

In this instance, "Next October" is in 2018.

 

 



The Cher Show  Jul 15 2018, 04:19:36 PM

Very good but short 4 numbers in mostly street clothes and no show wigs. Stephanie J Block talked briefly, thanking Chicago and the audience.

1. "I Got You Babe" with Jerrod Spector and Micaela Diamond

2. "The Way of Love" solo Stephanie J Block 

3. "Song for the Lonely" with Stephanie J Block,Teal Wicks, and Micaela Diamond

4. "Believe" full company



The Cher Show  Jul 15 2018, 03:08:00 PM

I saw ensemble member Christopher Vo arrive at 1:37. Did the staff think the show was to begin at 3?

But I think it is something else. There are several chairs on the stage, and water bottles. Oh no. We may get a concert version today.



The Cher Show  Jul 15 2018, 02:47:44 PM

Final performance today at 2. Start time delayed. The house should have opened 30 minutes ago. Ushers waiting for production to give green light to open doors.



The 2019-2020 Broadway Season - Confirmed Productions  Jul 12 2018, 05:40:31 PM

Solipsist234 said: "Really? You couldn't have waited for more shows to be announced?

This reminds me of the courtesy phrase "No line, no waiting."  Though it is announced to many, only one person can take advantage of it.

 

 



The Cher Show  Jul 11 2018, 03:44:20 PM

After seeing the show 5 times from the main floor, my Tuesday, July 10 ticket was the top row in the balcony. Row U next to the spotlight booth.

It is always a thrill hearing Chicago-based trumpeter Tim Burke warming up his high licks before curtain.

The show felt really lackluster from far away. The story is very disjointed.

The numerous taped markings on the stage are not attractive from upstairs. Is there a more lovely way to identify where the costume


Hello Dolly tour  Jul 10 2018, 07:05:43 PM

BwayLB said: "Hello I would like to know if I will like the upcoming national tour of Hello Dolly starring Betty Buckley."

You'd better get ahold of a ticket now before it sells out. The show title has oodles of name recognition.

I think both the Hello, Dolly! and Dear Evan Hansen tours will have many sold out performances.



Cats as a punch line?  Jul 10 2018, 06:06:51 PM

In the 1997 film, Love! Valour! Compassion!, one character is packing a few CDs at the last minute for a summer getaway.

Many showtune CDs make it into the Gotta Pack pile, but Cats is tossed away as a Don't Take reject.



The Cher Show  Jul 6 2018, 03:51:50 PM

Though you will see 98 percent of the action, you will miss just a few moments. 

 



The Cher Show  Jul 6 2018, 03:51:49 PM

I am confident that the view will be obstructed for one side of the stage.



The Cher Show  Jul 5 2018, 11:34:07 PM

At tonight's performance, more jokes landed than usual. The company has improved its timing.

During the start of Grauman's Theatre scene, lights inadvertently flew down from the fly. But after just 2 seconds, the miscued lights zipped up out of sight.

"I see you!" Star Cher shouted out to a friend in the audience during Take Me Home.

2:38 run time.

Yes, the Bono/Allman duet is Dark Lady.
