Are Playbills environmentally friendly?  Aug 22 2019, 07:10:24 AM

Mine are all on eBay now.  Upcycling!

Peter Dinklage in Cyrano  Aug 14 2019, 12:06:29 PM

LxGstv :  Thanks for setting the record straight.  We subscribed and didn't have trouble getting tix.  I remember an extension but not of that length

 

Broadway Joe:  There are always plenty of tix for subscribers if you log in on the first day or so of subscriber access.  If you wait too long you can get shut out of something popular.

 

Other than Charity, we have been mighty disappointed in New Group's shows (Whirligig,

Unlikely.  We've been members 2 of the past 3 seasons and I don't recall anything extending.  Maybe "Sweet Charity" did, but not for a full month more.  They schedule pretty tightly.

Parker created the role, and to critical acclaim. It is usually her that serves as the measuring stick for those who followed, including Ms. Reaser.

Hamilton vs Harry Potter and the cursed child  Aug 12 2019, 05:11:54 PM

Hamilton now is a great show.  Hamilton THEN was an amazing show.  I'm glad you have seen it, but if you had seen it with the original cast I think you would have felt differently about it.

Whether you take one or not, the same number of Playbills will be printed.

You can return them at the end of the performance

Theaters do not distribute used Playbills. Even if patrons would accept a used one, Playbill would still keepprinting the same number of Playbills. So there would be no reduction.

The Lion King...Bad.  Aug 12 2019, 09:35:02 AM

Disney shows are not for discerning theater audiences, and that's ok.  It's a great entry level show (as are the other Disney offerings) for families and tourists and folks who have never seen Live Theater and need something familiar and safe to see.

 

I wouldn't call it "lowest common denominator" because I think it takes guts for a tourist or a family to pay $400-800 to see a live theater event, but everything in the Disney family (theater, TV,

I thought this was about the Broadway Show League softball games, and I'd go with Hamilton there.  Much better athletes

You can save them and reminisce, no landfall then!

You can sell them on eBay or similar

Saddest musical?  Jul 29 2019, 08:04:56 AM

Some great choices already made in this thread, especially Scottsboro Boys.

I really like Urinetown, but the show, especially the ending, suggests a pretty damn bleak future for society



Moulin Rouge (pro) reviews  Jul 29 2019, 07:58:28 AM

CT2NYC said: "At this point, I think it's fair to say that most people who hated the movielike the show much more, and many who loved the film like the show less, with the lackluster ending being a major bone of contention. As a reminder, here's the endof the film, which, in my opinion, achievesemotional heights that the stage version only wishes it could:

Has anyone recognized actors anywhere but a show?  Jul 25 2019, 04:41:34 PM

Back when The Riviera was still around in the West Village we went there on a Sunday to watch a Patriot's football game. . We were at a 3 top and a well known TV star asked if he could sit at the 3rd seat.  He was there to watch his team (Steelers) who were on the next TV. The Riv was a pretty good Boston bar, but they had enough TVs that they showed every game on Sundays.  We invited him to join us as good sports fans would.  My wife wasn't 100% sure it was him bu

Has anyone recognized actors anywhere but a show?  Jul 25 2019, 08:29:52 AM

I rarely do, but my wife recognizes actors and writers everywhere.

 

We did both recognize Sutton Foster and Joel Grey entering Carnegie Hall, and he looked confused when I asked her if she had kept the boots from Trust.

 

(she did) 

 

Edward Albee denied he was himself at a preview of Me, Myself, and I a few years back, which was funny/odd



LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS returning Off-Broadway this Fall?  Jul 23 2019, 11:06:14 AM

Well, we *had* one free weekend in November.  Now we don't.  One $69 seat available for each show, so that didn't work.  For $109 we could sit in back or way over the side, so we paid the $149 for really good seats. 

 

Not happy about the pricing, but really looking forward to the production.
