Hi im drew and i LOVE NYC and Broadway i go to a performing arts high school and major in Musical Theatre there. I go to NYC once every year and see about 8-10 broadway shows over a week! Some of my favorite shows are: Ragtime, Les Mis, Into the Woods, Sound of Music, Next to Normal, Evita, Miss Saigon, Follies, Hello Dolly, In the Heights, Phantom of the Opera, On the Record, Memphis, Once, Billy Elliot, and probably hundreds more!!!

Sorry to disappoint! However, I still would go to the box office and definitely inquire about it! You never know what could happen! Also, I know you stated you weren’t interested in SRO, and I completely understand the hesitation, especially if for medical reasons you cannot stand, however if you are able to SRO really isn’t too terrible, with the view being virtually unobstructed (with the only exception being one short scene in the first act between Cornelius and Barnaby on the second level of

Unless there’s something I am unaware of, getting a rush ticket is most likely not going to be offered for a Bette performance. Rush tickets have only been for Donna and Bernadette performances. SRO is the only rush type/priced level ticket offered for Bette. Granted there could be something that I am not aware of but when I saw Bette SRO was the only rush type option.

Intrigued that no news source has mentioned who will be playing who?? Any speculation?
I would not say Buckley is as high profile/demand of a Broadway name as Gavin or Kate, as it has been over 20 years since her last performance on a Broadway stage in Triumph of Love. Yes her career is very noteworthy, even iconic by some standards, but I would not put Buckley on the same level as Gavin and Kate in terms of current relevance and status on Broadway. However I am quite excited to see Buckley, as I have never seen her live and am quite a fan of hers!
As much as I'd burst with excitement if they were to, I'd say the chances are doubtful. Most higher profile Broadway actors such as Kate and Gavin don't typically do national tours.
1. According to several Instagram stories by several Carousel cast members, today marked Jess LeProtto's final day in Carousel. Which, I assume may mean that full cast rehearsals for Dolly will be ramping up very soon.
2. On Garrett Hawe's story noting Jess's final show, his caption stated "Happy trails.... for now. " Which makes me wonder if Garrett may also be a memb

Just got home from a week in NYC, saw: Hello Dolly The Band’s Visit Carousel Phantom Anastasia Spongebob Mean Girls and Frozen
Of those shows for Hello Dolly I walked up at around 5:30-6:00 and got a partial view balcony seat for 39.00, however the view was quite partial as I had to lean all the way forward to see anything, and I have heard that they do sell orchestra seats for 39.00 as well. For Band’s Visit I was able to line up around 8:00-8:30 and wa

I KNOW this is absolutely a long shot, but if anyone has any spare Cursed Child tickets between June 6-9th (aka this upcoming week) please let me know! So upsetting to have missed the Friday Forty lotto by thirty minutes this afternoon!! Just looking for low priced tickets between 20-60.00 (per part).(again a huge long shot, but doesn't hurt to inquire lol) Thanks!
Forgive me if this has already been discussed elsewhere, but what exactly is the schedule regarding which performances Tony Shalhob does and does not do? I read that he would return in May and his schedule would be posted but saw no such schedule listed anywhere, and the website does not list him as a current cast member..... Thanks!
Apologies if this has already been discussed, but does anyone know why Barrett has been out as of late?
Which Other Musicals Should Lincoln Center/Bart Sher Revive? Mar 17
2018, 01:46:53 PM
Unfortunately I don’t know about the actual likelyhood of most of these actually being possibilities but: The Secret Garden, Ragtime, Les Mis, Miss Saigon, Hunchback, and Titanic! Would love to see a full blown, grandiose, non stripped down Sweeney Tood revival as well, though it definitely will need a rest after the current off Broadway production closes. I’d also like LCT to maybe produce another original musical again as well!

I think Ashley Brown and Rob McClure would be lovely choices for Irene and Cornelius, as they’ve also both played the roles regionally. However, I could see them both doing the tour as well. Also still wanting to see Jackie Hoffman as Ernestina. Mary Testa, Cheryl Lee Ralph, Beth Leavel, Klea Blackhurst or Carolee Carmello would be great Alternate Dolly’s if they were to do a Donna Murphy scanario again. Kelsey Grammer would also be a great Horace. For principal Dolly’s I am waiting and hoping f

In addition I still await Jackie Hoffman’s Ernestina. Just imagine the absolute riot that would be. Though I fully understand that she would do Broadway not the tour. :)

Anyone know anything about other casting for this/ hopeful casting ideas for the other roles? I for one think that it would be lovely to see Ashley Brown reprise Irene if not make her long overdue broadway return in the role! He might be a little old now/very different type-wise from a Gavin Creel, but it would also be lovely to see Rob McClure reprise his Cornelius!

Stage door reports? Did Bernadette, Victor, Charlie and co all sign and do pictures? I know Bernadette is usually always very gracious and usually will do pictures at stage door. Fingers crossed this is no exception!
