King Kong or Pretty Woman Sep 19

Go Kong! I was very dubious at first, but at the least (as others have said), the puppetry looks amazing and could be an experience. I’m hoping it pops up on TDF before using the code or going down the TKTS route. Regardless, I think it is the route to go. I want to see Pretty Woman too, but I live in the city and will just keep trying the lotto. Go with Kong!

I doubt it too. The rains have stopped. I mean, it’s always a crapshoot.
Broadway shows with no Standing Ovation Sep 14

Passion right after it opened. The lights came back up for the curtain call and I don’t think people had any idea what to make of it. You could have heard a pin drop as people filed out of the theater. It was a bizarre experience. It was also a Wednesday matinee. But still bizarre.

I am pretty sure entries are being accepted until noon, hence the Pending. When I saw that pop up on an entry to the BMC lotto, I called Today Tix and they told me the Pending message remains until all tickets have been claimed. I guess we will see in about an hour!

The most recent I can think of was sitting at a preview of Young Frankenstein in London and the ushers and house manager repeatedly getting a couple who kept moving from the rear of the stalls to the two seats directly in front of us. This happened several times with the house manager saying the guests who sat there always come in after the lights go down. That’s when my radar blipped. Finally, the folks retreated, the lights went down, and Mel Brooks (in a Yankees ballcap) and a friend darte
Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 9/2/18 Sep 5

Maybe they just moved everyone down to the Dress Circle. All I know is what I saw. And pardon my mistake, it was Friday night, not Saturday. It might not have been “closed” per se, but it was empty.
two ladies tickets said: "This past weekend I overheard one of the HOH producers, not Paltrow, bragging about the fact that they had enough of an advance to run the show though January. If that's true then good on them but they've never even made their weekly nut so they're going to burn through that cash very quickly. Do wethink they're getting a break on the rent? Are the GoGos waving their royalties? Maybe a tax write off? "

Goldstar had comps. They are gone...for now.
Check out bagbnb.com. There has to be a location very close to Penn. I used it in Europe. Cheap and easy!
Edit: Through that site, there are several close. Schwartz is gross.
Potential Theatres for Jul 11

If it is moving into the Shubert in March, then are they moving Mockingbird? It seems to make zero sense since Mockingbird is not gonna play three months and close up shop.

Ambrose being out on Sundays may have it at TKTS then too. It was there last Sunday. Though if you have the patience, playing the StubHub game is worth it too.

The article is definitely meant to be a humorous Miss Manners. Amanda used to be my neighbor. Read her Drag Race recaps in the NY Times to get a grasp of her humor...Ru even re-Tweeted her recap of last night’s finale.
When should you arrive at a theatre? Jun 5
2018, 05:06:27 PM
I agree with the 15 or so minutes arrival. Though more often than not (as long as I already have my tickets in hand or have dropped by will call hours before the performance), I honestly show up a lot of times 5-10 before knowing that the curtain truly never goes up until 5 min past the hour.
