I have seen this error too, but more often than not I see the error when first clicking "Find Tickets". I have had success simply by changing web browsers. Microsoft Edge has worked well for me.

The (increased) gross also reflects only 7 performances. "Looking good" may be a stretch in the big picture (based on known and unknown info), but the related comment was a long way from wholly unreasonable (based on known and unknown
I saw Lianah Sta Ana as well and thought she was quite good. It took a little while for me to fully warm up to her, but I got there while still in the first act. Going in knowing I would not be seeing Eva Noblezada, I wasn't too disappointed as I knew the London recording on DVD/Blu-ray (with Eva) will be released at some point....and could get the Blu-ray from Amazon UK anytime and play it on any Blu-ray player as it is not region coded.

I'm hopeful (and so far the numbers seem to be proving out) that this will continue to followa very similar word of mouth path to success as Come From Away - which had very similar numbers in its initial weeks and gradually kept growing and growing as more people discoveredhow incredible of a show it is."
perfectlymarvelous said, in part: "Broadway could and should be doing more to make every ensemble look like Great Comet's. Which is why I fail to understand and also disagree with this point in basically any context in which it could have occurred."
OK, but if an actual dialog amongst those with opposing view points could be had, maybe some common ground could be found. Oak seems to be willing to talk now. Maybe some understanding on Oak's part th
In the article, Onaodowan doesn't specifically address the "Comet" controversy surrounding his leaving, and he doesn't clarify or expand on what he means by "there is more to diversity than just existing, it must be nurtured--and that's where The Great Comet failed" - and similar brief comments. It might be nice to hear him go further and specifically explain what he sees as Comet's failure. Maybe he did, and the writer e
Why would the fact this run was never considered open ended reduce the chance of closing before the scheduled end date? The gross percentage of potential gross is already at 42%, and that's with more than 2000 fewer potential seats sold per week than what was potentially available earlier in the run.
Sorry OP. I'm just providing what appears (to me) to be cause for realistic concern.
The Doubletree Times Square West just opened earlier this year and is nice, safe and clean. The crowded lobby and too few elevators situation is not a lot of fun (you have probably read comments in the reviews). For only a night, that situation likely won't be too much of an issue though. Unless heavily discounted on longer stays, I won't consider staying there again.

And then he chooses Ellen over Kim and decides to leave her and their SON in Bangkok. That really made me hate Chris. "
And then he chooses Ellen over Kim...? What time frame are you referring to?&n
Hamilton and Phantom are two good examples of shows I don't see declining, at least not declining in any significant way. I saw both fairly recently, and Hamilton was just about as good as the first time I saw it with the original cast. I saw two standbys (Jevon McFerrin as Hamilton & Syndee Winters as Angelica) and one understudy (Nik Walker as Burr), and I didn't miss the original cast nor did I feel the least bit bad about missing three of the primary cast members.<

Skimbleshanks2, has your opinion of Come From Away changed since you previously posted you did not like it (two days ago in the Reviews thread)? Or how is that you see it winning Best Musical despite your dislike?
I just read the two threads back to back, thus the bewilderment.
Dave28282, I don't think anyone is trying to hide facts. My point is there is no "Right" or "Wrong" in how a the content in Miss Saigon makes people feel or what SOME of the reasonable takeaways are. That you don't share the same takeaway, reading the information at the first link Lizzie provided on the prior page might move you to more "in between" "black and white".
Some general thoughts not directed at anyone specific:
I have often struggled to understand how Miss Saigon is anything but good storytelling (with particularly good music). Listening to the OLC recording, I became a Lea Salonga fan forever - initially based solely on her singing voice. I recall seeing Miss Saigon for the first time in NYC around 1993 or so, and I also don't recall having any theoretical problem with what was being portrayed on stage. However, to
The show has been running twenty years, and the production has allowed just about anyone with the slightest celebrity on the stage - in principal roles and sometimes in one-performance cameos. For her last-performance additions in this specific version of Chicago, Mel B doesn't deserve anyone's criticism.
The theater I went to had showings on two screens, with the 1st sold out and the 2nd somewhere in the neighborhood of 80% full. I thought this screening was very good and was not a let down in comparison to the live performance I saw in November, 2015, which I enjoyed very much. I appreciated the performances even more and think the standouts were definitely Lea Salonga and Michael K. Lee.
Greg Watanabe's portrayal of Mike Masaoka was more conflicted than I recall, perh
Wanting to see the cinema release - and guessing last minute tickets would not be a problem, I only just checked my local theaters and found multiple theaters (within 25 miles around OC/LA in California) are either sold out or have added a 2nd showing (either on another screen or at 10:45 PM). Happy to see the nice sales, at least in socal.
