MEAN GIRLS Reviews  Apr 8 2018, 06:26:23 PM
Very curious here too. I have a feeling it could fall in the realm of the Frozen reviews, but I could be wrong. Regardless, I think The Band’s Visit is the best new musical of the year HANDS DOWN.

2018 Olivier Awards  Apr 8 2018, 06:08:11 PM
So happy to see those ladies from Girl From The North Country win! Both were fantastic and deserving performances. I still hope it crosses the pond at some point. I listen to the OCR all the time and still get the chills I felt when I saw it.

How to get tickets to Jesus Christ Superstar Live?  Mar 27 2018, 04:15:52 PM
Congratulations to all who have gotten tickets so far. Still waiting here. Though as someone posted earlier, one shouldn’t be shocked if they get a confirmation the day of show. I’ve had it happen too. Fingers crossed for all of us who entered and haven’t heard anything yet!

JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR tickets on 1iota  Mar 23 2018, 03:49:27 PM
Sometimes it’s what you put in the notes according to 1iota team members. I’ve had good luck with getting off wait lists. My fingers are crossed for everyone on here!

Congrats!!!! Out of Curiosity, where are your seats located?

Thanks, Fanboy!  I ended up with Orch F and G on the far side.  I can’t complain for $30!  My other option was tip top of the balcony to the far side.  The w

No idea! The system is still down.

Thanks, Lizzie! As I said, their customer service has been great and transparent.

Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 3/4/18  Mar 5 2018, 04:23:25 PM
This may have been answered already, but a friend and I won the Hamilton lotto for the Saturday matinee. There was at least one pair of seats in the lotto area that were never occupied. My friend won, so I didn’t see fine print, but wouldn’t they release those seats to the line if not picked up since you are told to pick them up a half hour before curtain? It just seemed odd.

Restaurants near NY City Center  Jan 19 2018, 04:54:20 PM
You’re welcome! It’s also nice that you can use the passage next to the London hotel across the street to put you right there at NYCC. Again, while the menu looks ok, the execution is much better than one would expect!

Restaurants near NY City Center  Jan 19 2018, 03:32:58 PM
I have always enjoyed Old Castle Pub on 54th before a show there. It’s nothing grand, but the food is solid and definitely a level above pub fare.

NYCC Grand Hotel  Jan 17 2018, 05:24:08 PM
Yes, I know this has been mentioned in previous threads, but I find it odd that the production is two months away and we know nothing.

I am very much looking forward to it, but NYCC has already announced the Off-Center season and there is nothing about this which is hotly awaited. Is there any word on the street about this?


Shows that the you hated the first time, and ended up liking the second time.  Jan 15 2018, 10:09:09 AM
Actually the only time I have really experienced this was with Groundhogs Day. I went one night after work during previews. I don’t know whether I was tired or the show wasn’t doing it for me, but after the eternal first act that I barely made it through, I bolted. I thought it was insufferable. A few weeks after opening, a friend had an extra ticket and convinced me to give it another chance. Glad I took him up on the offer because I felt like I was seeing something totally different (and

I am no expert on this nor do I have insider info. NBC puts a lot of their live audience programming on 1iota, but this could totally end up being an invite only event for insiders and very lucky people. As of yesterday, there was nothing on 1iota. I would love to hop the G out to Williamsburg to see it. I’m sure something will be said soon. Hopefully.

SPONGEBOB Rush and Lottery  Dec 9 2017, 10:26:14 PM
Great show and tons of fun. I know that speaking of TDF is unrelated to this, but just wanted to give an example of what a crap shoot it is. I went to the Wednesday matinee and was Orch V. Great seat and view and fun TDF people around me. I had a single seat. Had friends that went to the evening (three people) and they had front row on TDF. Personally, I would have hated being that close for such a visual show, but it goes to show how random TDF can be. I always think getting a single wil

ONCE ON THIS ISLAND (2017) Previews  Nov 19 2017, 10:02:33 PM
Combining threads here...

Did lotto this afternoon. At the last minute they went from 20 to 40 tickets in lotto. D 213-15. Amazing seats and I felt like we didn’t miss a thing.

It really is the perfect revival. Arden has given this new life. I’ve loved the show and score since the first time I saw it on tour at at the Kennedy Center. I could rave on and on, but the bottom line is SEE IT! The whole cast is magnificent, I want Lea’s headpeace, and Dane has created a beau


The Exterminating Angel - MetLive Broadcast run time  Nov 18 2017, 11:47:17 PM
My typo. It ended it 3:50 or at least that’s when I left my seat. And thank you on the semantics. The doors to the “auditorium” didn’t open until 12:45.

Crazy For You - Signature DC  Nov 18 2017, 11:37:04 PM
I may have missed a post, but has anyone here seen it yet? I know all the DC buzz is about Mean Girls now, but am curious as to what people who have seen this thought of it.

The Exterminating Angel - MetLive Broadcast run time  Nov 18 2017, 05:03:30 PM
2:50 is where it should have finished up this afternoon. The house didn’t open until about 12:45 and there was definitely a long intermission.

Quite the interesting afternoon.
