I felt that way, too, especially as the scene was ending! Another reason I thought the direction of that scene in particular fell short of Letts' vision.
I saw Mary Page Marlowe last weekend and am very glad I did. I agree that this one does not come close to rivaling Tracy Letts' best plays, but nevertheless I found it engaging, especially with this troupe of actors. I do want to address the final scene:
All six of Donna Murphy's performances are now available on TDF. If you haven't see her before, do not miss her in this role!
Does Angels have an online Merch shop? Jul 16

I doubt it. I was at the final performance yesterday and they had little to no merchandise left (a few pins, magnets, and limited sizes in t-shirts). If anything, maybe some things will show up at the flea market in September, but based on yesterday, I wouldn't expect so unless they have inventory somewhere else.

Not originally. About a month before the Off-Broadway run of Heisenberg, Arndt replaced Kenneth Welsh. Admittedly, the announcement had been made much further in advance.
I successfully exchanged a pair of tickets for May to another date in July, though the process was convoluted. When you contact Ticketmaster, they will refer you directly to Disney Theatrical, who handles the exchanges. The tickets you select must be of equal or greater value and they charge a $15 fee per ticket. I was referred back and forth between Ticketmaster and Disney on who exactly would handle the administrative work to process the exchange, until I finally managed to speak&

Do you know if Tony Shalhoub signed the window cards? I'm assuming not since he went on his short leave from the show a few weeks ago, unless they do them somewhat in advance?
Thank you everyone for these wonderful first reports! After reading these, I immediately hurried to the LincTix site and managed to grab a single seat for June. I'm so looking forward to it now!
Please make Christine Baranski happen! She's been away from the Broadway stage for far too long (no matter how much I loved The Good Wife and love The Good Fight) and Dolly would be a fantastic role for her.
Thanks for sharing that video above, PalJoey. How could they not dim the lights for someone who cared so much for her craft and this community? Truly dismaying...
I truly cannot fathom that they won't dim the lights for Jan. The outpouring of condolences and love from the Broadway community has been pretty voluminous. In his tribute, Brantley compared her to Frank Langella, Kevin Kline, Audra McDonald, and even Meryl Streep, all figures we know would receive the tribute; that's not nothing. It would certainly warrant outcry if they don't.

I would absolutely love to see Baranski in the role! She could conceivably take on the role in New York since she films The Good Fight here. I've been waiting for her to make a return to the stage and what a coup it would be if it was in Dolly! (I also thought she w

I believe she's currently starring in Fire and Ice Off-Broadway, no? I assume that means she's in good health.
