@modernmillie it seems like you WANT the show to fail.
Are you one of the actors from the NYMF production who was replaced?

Anyways I saw it at NYMF and it was charming and adorable. Not a kids show, any more than “lightening thief” was a kids show. It’s Family friendly but I had a great time with friends.
That being said, I disagree about inflated ticket prices... at least for THIS show. I got a pair for $25 each from the box office and the seats were great. they have LOTS of great seats at great price points.

I found myself incredibly disappointed wednesday night.
the BEST part is the new material added.... SPOILER ALERT?
the production team interviews staff members at New York City Center, and added their stories into the show! Security, Ushers, Ticket Takers, Box Office people.... and their CHILDREN who also work at NYCC.
it was a BEAUTIFUL HEARTWARMING addition to the show. It was the only part of the show that felt heartfelt.

I miss the day where you could buy a SANDWICH for under $10.
I miss the day where you could buy a BEER for under $10.
Prices rise

I wouldn't consider myself a zealous theatre fan, and frankly tend to hate ALOT, if not most, of what I see. I think this show brilliantly portrayed the current state of the world, in a Shakespearean period manner. and THAT is what makes good theatre for me. reflecting modern opinions in an artisti
