Didn't want to make a new topic, but are Goldstein or Unexpected Joy worth seeing or skippable? Neither look interesting to me. Both have the usual over enthusiastic praise on show score with a few more down to earth average reviews.
I did like Letter to Harvey Milk and suggest checking that out. Are they equal to or worse than that?

I saw Admissions the other day and really liked it and the issues it discussed. Reading some reviews of this it doesn't seem as interesting as Admissions, or is it?
Having a hard time deciding whether or not to see this. Was leaning towards no, then saw Our Lady of 121st street tonight which I felt was enjoyable but empty plot and development wise so was wishing I just gave Transfers a shot instead.

"and Gavin Creel (returning to the show Tuesday, May 8)"
I loved Santino in it. I found him more modern and natural whereas Gavin is more old fashioned and goofy like in the movie.

Upcoming Waitress cast replacements? May 1
2018, 02:35:18 AM
I too was hoping for an announcement of some new faces. Well I just bought an audience rewards ticket for Mcphee's last week which would be the last chance for anyone new when seeing her.
Seeing it for the fifth time so would love to see someone different as Ogie and Dawn, even though they're both great. And preferred Chris D to Drew so hoping for someone new more similar to Chris.
Why no CAROUSEL video clips? Apr 29
2018, 11:26:46 AM
Are there clips of Lobby Hero anywhere? I want to hear Michael Cera and Chris Evans deliver some lines again but don't actually want to sit through the whole play again. This would actually be a good candidate to film for BroadwayHD/PBS.
Cheap Cirque Volta tickets? Apr 27

Has anyone gone yet using public transportation? Is it just the usual port authority bus that runs like every hour or do they have special shuttles going there more often?

CSC hasn't had a professional looking or actual good production since The Liar last season. They need to lower ticket prices if they're gonna keep putting on all these amateur looking productions.
I also hate the new layout of the theater. Such a tiny center seating section and narrow playing area. And staring at that ugly balcony thing in every production. Atrocious.
Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 4/22/18 Apr 23

I know it's not a typical Roundabout show, but they aren't just renting the theater. Roundabout is credited as an Executive Producer in the playbill and they included tickets in subscriber packages.

Everything seems to be doing quite well or well enough. Margaritaville and Sponge will probably stick it out through the summer.
Children of a Lesser God seems to be the only show that will close before the summer. Does Roundabout subscribers mean it will stick it out a bit longer or does that not matter?
Cheap Cirque Volta tickets? Apr 22
2018, 10:23:39 AM
Any good discount codes for Volta tickets? I saw the lucky seat lottery but it's annoyingly only for weekday 8:00 shows. Think any papering services will get this?
Dollypop said: "I have no qualms about BANDSTAND being presented in HD, but why haven't productions of CURIOUS INCIDENT or Bradley Cooper's ELEPHANT MAN been given the same treatment?"
Elephant Man was filmed? In London I'm assuming? Where is it available to watch?
BE MORE CHILL to Premiere Off-Broadway This Summer Apr 14

Was Will Connolly not available or is Will Roland their attempt at "star casting?" Don't really think he's right for the role.
James2 said: "What I mean is each announcement lists at the beginning which productions were discussed at the meeting. Neither this announcement nor the previous one includedThe Parisian Womanin the list, which suggests the committee never even discussed it."
The omission of The Parisian Woman in the original release was an error that has since been corrected. You can see the updated version here:
Changing seats during intermission? Mar 30
2018, 12:53:39 AM
Tonight at intermission at Hello Dolly I moved to an open aisle seat in the orchestra I had seen from my partial view mezz seat. Right before the lights went down an usher telling people to silence their phones asked if this is my seat and said he saw me coming from the mezzanine into the orchestra at the start of intermission. I said it's not my seat, but I asked may I sit here, yet he still wanted to see my ticket anyway. He looked at I'm guessing the price and made a face and said no you can'

Miss You Like Hell at the Public Mar 27
2018, 11:43:31 PM
See it if you like "collecting" all the average to below average musicals the public puts on every year, besides Ham and Fun Home. Some great songs, some unnecessary ones. I agree with annang about the characters and plot not being strong enough to earn the emotion.
ESCAPE TO MARGARITAVILLE Previews Mar 16

The zombies were in the day before opening. I think that's just poorly worded and he's only talking about his weight being in the past.
