Shows that the you hated the first time, and ended up liking the second time. Jan 14
2018, 01:40:33 PM
The first time I saw American Idiot, I really hated it... It wasn't what I was expecting, it was incredibly dark and it didn't feel like a musical in the traditional way.
But it stayed with me, and the songs started to haunt me. I decided to go back again and the second time I was incredibly moved, I thought the message was so poignant and timely, and I just thought everyone was so incredibly talented. So many elements I wasn't able to digest the first time.

2015, 09:02:59 AM
Vogue posted the 9 Best Tony Awards Performances of All Time...
http://www.vogue.com/13263096/best-tony-awards-performances/
Do you agree? Anything missed?
Personally, I really loved the opening of Ragtime and You Can't Stop The Beat from Hairspray. Also, Anything Goes with Patti.

Is Word of Mouth Gone?? Aug 14
2013, 01:08:34 AM
FYI I'm actually the "kid" who didnt like Next to Normal and it didnt go over my head ... I just thought it was oversimplistic and it didn't feel authentic.
And I hated the set design, but the review made it seem like I didnt "get" the fact that the set turned red when she got mad (amazing for some maybe, but not exactly brilliant to me). I think maybe a different staging might produce a different review but the scaffolding and venetian blind "eyes" werent my cup of tea. Sorry!

Discount Codes for June May 20
2010, 01:57:03 PM
Hi all,
I've been looking for discount codes through June 13th (before the Tony's) but all of the codes I have found seem to expire on May 30th. Does anyone know any discounts listed other than broadwaybox.com?
Specifically, I'm looking for West Side Story and American Idiot.
Edited to add: Also, wondering if maybe it's usual that the week leading up to the Tony's is not discounted?
Thanks all!

So black to you, perhaps. So red to me... Mar 26
2010, 11:43:16 PM
the bulb didn't blow during the performance i saw, so im going to guess that it wasn't supposed to happen but they are incredibly professional actors who made it all seem natural.
have to say that i LOVED this play. and im actually surprised to hear that people didn't like it, or even think it might be polarizing.... i just found it incredibly compelling, thought provoking, and exhausting (in a good way). thoroughly enjoyed it. would recommend it to friends.

virgins must report to times sq Jan 6
2010, 04:20:27 PM
I'm going to miss the old Virgin because it was a great place to kill time, but I also didn't spend much money there... so I guess I'm partly to blame for its demise!
I'm eager to see what Disney will do to the space... the times they are a changing, and to be honest I think a Disney store now makes sense in Times Square. Better that than the empty space it has been for years... and those Charmin bathrooms are convenient but only for one month out of the year.

Also, in the article...
"The new Disney store will feature technological advancements, as inspired by Steve Jobs of Apple Inc., including a new theater, where visitors can see Disney movies, TV and publishing in a “new way,” Disney's Mr. Fielding said. “We have projection televisions in all of our stores, but this will be presenting things in a new, immersive and experiential way that's never been done before.”
So I guess they are taking the theater in the basement.

2009, 02:40:48 PM
as i mentioned in the other thread, i really think it's important to show them without their shirts on. matthew hydzyk looked terrible. like soft, pudgy dad body. if for nothing else, cavanaugh was atleast great eye candy with toned arms in a tanktop.
will need to see jeremy without a shirt to truly judge his performance.
oh - the singing... right, i forgot we're supposed to take that into account too! i'll pay attention to that next time i go.

I sat beside Matthew Broderick at Die, Mommy, Die .. it was kinda surreal. I was hoping that Sarah Jessica Parker would sneak in right before the curtain, but unfortunately she didn't come. Matthew was with an older gentleman caller. Or a friend. I dunno. But not SJP. Boo.

re: Matthew Hydzik Named West Side Story's New Tony; Cavenaugh Exits Dec. 1 Dec 21

Woops - I forgot to mention the best part of the show: I really loved John Arthur Greene as Riff. First off, he seems genuinely suited for the role... tough and passionate, macho, etc. When I saw Cody Greene, it was like watching a sheep in wolf's clothing. John Arthur can sing and dance, but more importantly you actually believe his tough guy act. It also seems like he is genuinely having a great time performing on stage without trying to overdo his performance.
I also thought tha

I won the lottery this weekend - Saturday matinee. To be honest, I would have expected a lot more people playing.. but it seemed like 50% of the people who showed up got tickets. A lot of tickets pulled where the winner said they didn't need'em cuz their friend already won. Anyway, I wasn't complaining - I ended up getting a pair right in the middle.
This is my 3rd time seeing West Side Story - and I was excited to see Matthew Hydzik as the new Tony, and also got to see Haley a

I'm not sure when he's back in N2N but Aaron stood next to me on the subway today. I won't say where he got on or where he got off, but I am excited to know we live at the same subway station!
