As someone who just listened to Josh Groban's new album and commented that his "Bridge Over Troubled Water" cover was not as good as Clay Aiken's, yes! I will see this, but not at full price
Thank you posting that Ravenclaw. I was vaguely aware that he had problems with representation and finances in the past, and I hope he appears on a NY stage soon.
I saw this on Saturday night and during Act Two I started to actively root for a murder-suicide so I could go home. Regardless, if this transfers Mare Winningham has the Best Featured Actress in a Musical Tony locked up.
Caught this over the weekend as well. Didn't plan on posting because anything I could contribute as criticism has already been posted, but what gorgeous sets! what gorgeous costumes And if if that wasn't a wig, what fabulous hair Jason Butler Harner has!
Thanks to the posters in the thread! I was going to take a chance and see if this popped up on TDF, but with the ticket price increase and word that it's selling well, I played it safe and bought two $45 tickets instead.
Just walking into the Armory's space is exciting. Not every production needs Broadway as an end game.

Yes, along with another Brit as his wife, and another Brit as LBJ, and another Brit as Wallace. Yes, there was a bit if outrage about that.

McTeer is a goddess and Harner is one of my favorites, but oh! How I dread having to sit through this ... well, the costumes look nice.
Given ticket prices today, even at a discounted or rush rate, it is a lot to ask a friend or family member if they would like to catch a show with me. I often go to the theatre alone and have been doing so for about 20 years now, as I have my priorities and understand that those I know have theirs. I will absolutely invite or treat friends and family to a show I know they will enjoy, but often I save movie going as something to do in pairs or a group. I actually just went on a solo

No miniature Titanic creeping across the stage to end Act One, no dice.

As the campaign against single use plastics grows stronger, perhaps one day we will be spared the crinkling of Poland Spring bottles during a show. One can dream.

I just listened to the Broadway cast album on a road trip recently. It was a long car ride and we had time to kill!
I do remember seeing the show and it was quite a gloomy affair, but damned if "The Propsal" didn't have fabulous vocals by James Barbour. Chills!

Lies! It will soon be "Roxanne" from Moulin Rouge with Aaron Tveit scream singing "put on the red light" repeatedly for what seemed an eternity in a hot, stuffy theater. A glimpse of the torture I will suffer in the afterlife if I don't clean up my act I'm sure.
Their Grey Garadens parody, "Sandy Passage," is one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
Loved their Vice and Spaulding Gray spoofs. Bill Hader never fails to impress me. Looking forward to the new season.

The South Pacific revival. I saw it once a week after it opened from a front row center orchestra seat. It was such a perfect moment in time that I felt a repeated viewing would spoil the memory.

Weirdly enough when I logged onto Facebook, the Atlantic Theater Company was posting cast portrait session pics that were taken yesterday in their story stream. Who is paying for this?
The Hollywood Reporter has just releasedan article with a pretty passionate looking photo of Satine and Christian. Since I haven't seen the show. this is as close as I can get."
Olivo looks repulsed by Tveit's greasy long locks in the photo. Not a good look. I s
