In case you've been on the fence about going to see the revival of Oklahoma!, I just got a marketing email from them mentioning that if you use the code OKNEWS1122 you can score tickets for $59.99, which (in my opinion) is a pretty great deal! I figured I'd pass on the word for those who may be interested! According to the email the code is only valid until Dec 5th, but is good on dates until Jan 16!

If you want the cheapest possible ticket, I’d recommend checking the box office the morning of. They don’t do “rush tickets” per say... but often they have same-day tickets available for 99$ all in. If you’re a big group you probably won’t have luck, but for 1-2 people it’s a good option.
That’s what I did and I got a fantastic center orchestra seat. Row L. I went to the box office shortly after 10am for the matin

I definitely think there was a degree of "right place, right time" to its Tony wins. It was a notoriously weak year for Best Musical. American Idiot, Fela!, and Million Dollar Quartet were the other nominees. M

By the time they filmed it he was having obvious difficulty hitting the high notes and his acting performance had audiences questioning the character's mental state.

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the opening night of “Memphis: A New Musical” on Broadway, which ended up going on to run for 1,066 performances, and win 3 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical, and Best Score of a Musical.
The reason I’m starting this thread is to possibly start a dialogue about how well (or poorly) the show has aged. Would a show like this ever be staged in 2019? Was it ever a truly “great” show, as it’
I'm looking forward to seeing Beetlejuice's numbers in the next several weeks. This will be it's prime season, and the producers will be eyeing these numbers to figure out what to do with the show (rehoming, closing).
It's a shame for Mean Girls, especially considering most of the cast will probably be finishing their contracts soon... I really can't see it lasting long after the other leads bow out.

I had tickets for back to back nights, but my Part 1 performance (October 14th) was canceled. There is only one option I can make for Part 1 before I see Part 2, but I was curious as to whether I should really push for that. I am deeply familiar with Howards End, and know roughly how this show tracks with that, so maybe I could come in in the middle of the story and not be los
See, this is the kind of stuff the show should be doing. Limited, fringe-sized engagements in international/regional theatres. I'll admit I'm not a fan of the show in the slightest (I really tried...), but clearly it has it's fans. It shouldn't try and pretend like it'll be a long-running smash musical, when it's a perfectly serviceable niche musical. This seems a lot more appropriate.

During previews, you can only see both parts on the same day on Saturday. But once the show opens, they're also adding Wednesday as another 2 part day.
I guess a lot of people in London said that part 1 was satisfying e

Can anyone verify if they have any advanced availability on TDF? I’m planning on going to see it in November and figured TDF would be the way to go. Was planning on seeing The Inheritance 1/2, Slave Play, and The Sound Inside and have heard that they’ve all been on TDF quite regularly.
Noticed there was no board on the topic already, so I figured I'd start one.
They apparently have $39 rush tickets available in-person when the box office opens. Has anyone tried this yet? What time did you arrive? Where were your seats? Thanks in advance!
I saw the show on broadway in 2012 with Raven Symone in the lead role. It was a fun show, but ultimately a bit forgettable, which I think is why it didn't last too long on broadway in the first place.
Aren't they remaking the movie? I could see that bringing some momentum back to the musical. If they were still doing those TV live productions I could see Sister Act being a good fit, but I think after the Jlo "Bye Bye Birdie: Live!" never materialized, I can
I'm really looking forward to The Inheritance! I believe I'll be making a trip over in November to check it out. I'll probably check out Slave Play and The Lightning Thief while in New York.
Really REALLY looking forward to Six in the winter/spring!

I saw the Friday matinee today, and I agree, I was slightly disappointed. I had SUCH high expectations, and was a little let down...
Of course the staging was AMAZING, and it was a visual feast, but the acting was a bit lazy (it was a special Friday matinee for charity so that could explain that). The stand out for me was Scar. I feel like “Be Prepared” was the song that really blew me away. The rest was a bit lukewarm.
And they threw in some really bad 4th wall breaking refe
It did end up selling out, and they kept on saying “10 more minutes” and then eventually came out 5 minutes before curtain and told us they wouldn’t be doing standing room. So that really sucked. 5 hours in line for nothing... But hey that’s the risk you take I guess.

UPDATE: AS OF THURSDAY, AUG 8TH THEY HAVE STANDING ROOM TICKETS
I’ve been waiting outside since about 9am, and as soon as the box office opened at 10, I asked and they said that YES they do have standing room tickets available, but only if the show is 100% sold out. So I’m still waiting outside, hoping and praying that the 2PM matinee sells out so I can get a standing room ticket!
(I’m still the only person in the SRO line and the show starts in a little over an hour. It still
