With my ticket, they did stop me from entering and it scanned as "refund". Maybe someone bought real tickets took screen shots of their tickets on Ticketmaster, uploaded that on StubHub a

This happened to me tonight as well. StubHub gave me a full refund as well as a $50 voucher. I think the red flag is buying Pretty Woman tickets that will be sent as a mobile ticket. Not that mobile tickets can't be a th

I still think it's incredible and wonderful Second Stage is using their new Broadway space to present a Lee play - challenging but deserving of the exposure - as opposed to simply presently more traditionally commercial fare as a cash grab. It makes me thrilled they finally landed a Bway space and putting it to such

WhizzerMarvin said: "I just thought the score, book, physical production and everything else was really lousy. That’s not wanting it to be something it never intended to be. That’s just being disappointed in the show within the confines of the genre it was written."

I had a different take on why the sets looked so cheap. The tone stuck me as very influenced by 1980s Saturday morning cartoons and broad comedies from that era, like how's there's


Yiddish Fiddler at the Museum of Jewish Heritage  Jul 19 2018, 11:57:37 PM

I caught this last Friday, and it was the most impactful version of the musical I've seen. Yes the set was kind of drab, and yes I'm sure that's largely a product of budget limitations, but while it's lacking the big set pieces featured in the Danny Burstein starring version that was on Broadway a couple of years ago, given that the story takes place in a very poor village, a sparse, drab set is thematically more appropriate. 

More importantly, hearing th

GETTIN' THE BAND BACK TOGETHER to Open at the Belasco in 2018  Jul 10 2018, 11:01:52 AM

I'm guessing they're not promoting it, because they're promoting sales at higher price points. They still have inventory to move but don't want to cannibalize sales from their existing digital ad campaigns. 

Obviously this wouldn't be sustainable, but I think the only hope the show has of succeeding is positive word of mouth and that's impossible if no one comes to see the show in the first place.

I missed that it's for orchestra seats too. Now, I actually do feel ripped off, lol. 

 



GETTIN' THE BAND BACK TOGETHER to Open at the Belasco in 2018  Jul 10 2018, 10:33:46 AM

I loved him on Drag Race! He was on Season 4 as Milan.

He patted me on the head when I saw it (instead of high fiving me, because my hands were full). I thought Dwayne had the best, at least most unique voice. 

Overall, I thought the show was a really fun experience. I never saw the original version, but I appreciated how instead of having a forced, half hearted attempt at a story; they s

The preshow was certainly strange, but when Ty DeFoe and T.L Thompson (on for Kate Bornstein) explained it after the fact, I thought it was quite funny, if a bit ham-fisted.

The cast was, for the most part, uniformly excellent and funny. There were A LOT of jokes

I don't know, but I was there for the Saturday matinee and in the balcony there was a weird echo from what I'm assuming was the speakers coming from the right side of the theate


STRAIGHT WHITE MEN Previews  Jul 8 2018, 11:57:16 AM

I don't know why Denis Arndt left, but it did strike me that what made his performance in Heisenberg so powerful was how grounded and lived in it felt, and I'm not sure given what was written and how Straight White Men was written that could have been possible here. 

I saw Straight White Men yesterday and was really frustrated by how interchangeable, and unconvincing the characters were as people.  When they weren't talking about white male privileg


HEAD OVER HEELS TodayTix Rush Thread  Jul 3 2018, 05:04:28 PM

I went yesterday via TodayTix rush. The ticket turned out to be second to last row of Dress center. It wasn't a perfect view but honestly the bigger issue is how little leg rooms those seats have. 



If Sondheim was a woman, ALW was Trans & John Kander was a Dwarf...  Jun 26 2018, 10:40:09 PM

Almost serious answer: 

Assuming Sondheim being a woman and Andrew Lloyd Webber being trans would mean they'd get a lot less career opportunities, Annie would be even more likely to win Best Musical in 1977 because Side by Side by Sondheim never happens. 

There would be a bigger impact on the 1988 Best Musical Award, because if both Into the Woods and The Phantom of the Opera didn't get produced; either Romance/Romance or Sarafina! wins

If it’s similar for the other unions that might help explain part of the reason why ticket prices are so high.

Bruce Springsteen - special Tony Award disgust  Jun 17 2018, 10:08:22 AM

Unless something has changed from their original deal, Springsteen is not paying rent on the Walter Kerr Theatre. The deal that was struck is he can play there for free, the alternative was the theater remaining closed because of Amelie's unexpected flop, and Jujamcyn keeps all of the concession sales. 

Which makes the high ticket prices for Springsteen on Broadway that much more offensive. Other than his wife appearing for a couple of songs, Springsteen is
