I missed this at the Armory, so I'm thrilled about the transfer! I can't imagine the ticket prices will be exorbitant, or at least not nearly as insane as they eventually became at the Armory given the incredibly limited run. I know the reviews and frenzy at the Armory will lead to excitement about the Broadway mounting, but does anyone think this might be a tough sell to the broader public?

To add a few more recent data points, I saw both Ink and Choir Boy through TDF and was in the mezzanine both times. Great first row center seat for Ink (AA of the Premiere Circle) and row F (the last row, I think) for Choir Boy.
Thrilled by this news! I had hoped for a transfer of this play after the rave reviews Parker got for the Williamstown run, but thought the possibility had faded. Very much looking forward to seeing Parker on stage again.
I saw the show last night and thought it was excellent, and a genuinely funny musical comedy. The entire cast and especially Robert Horn's book are the stars of the show. Fontana gives a star turn and rightly deserves his frontrunner status for the Tony. He does make a very challenging role seem effortless. I've read some criticism that he doesn't get an 11 o'clock number, but he gets a number of songs that really allow him to shine. He's particularly great in "U

I haven’t seen any mounting of this before (going next week), but haven’t others said that Hnath has almost entirely rewritten it?

Yes, Ticketmaster does. I bought insurance on my Tootsie tickets, in large part because they offer very generous policy on reimbursement for a whole host of travel-related issues.
I saw one of the very first previews at the Atlantic, adored it, and at the time only hoped to get a cast recording. The fact that it arrived on Broadway, intimacy and most of the original cast in tact, was quite a feat and its success truly well-deserved. One of my favorite musicals in a very long time. Perhaps of all time, in fact. Cheers to all involved for an incredible show. I'll be visiting a few more times before it closes, for sure.
I saw this last weekend and enjoyed it, but I had my expectations set by those who saw it earlier than I did. It's certainly nothing extraordinary, but it's engaging for its 90-minute run time. I'm glad it received some positive notices, but I understand the negative reviews, too.

If she's looking for a TV series - I can't believe "The Good Fight" hasn't signed her up yet! And before this great show, 'The Good Wife'. What are they thinking?"
When Donna mentioned in a recent interview that she was looking for a series that fil

100% agreed."
Same here! I was at her final performance tonight, too. Truly joyous and a deservedly affectionate send-off. Much like her first final performance back in January, the house seemed full of her biggest fans: huge standing ovations for h
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.
UncleCharlie said: "He was cast in Heisenberg from the very beginning so not clear how the two compare."
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.
