Tootsie all the way. The production was hilarious in Chicago, and it's likely to be one of the big nominees (and hopefully winners) at the Tonys this year.
Have 2 visits to NY planned for this year. One is May 1st to the 5th, the other is in November, probably right before Thanksgiving.
The May trip, I will be traveling solo. I have six shows lined up over 4 days, and they are Hadestown, Ain't Too Proud, Hilary and Clinton, To Kill a Mockingbird, Gary, and Kiss Me, Kate.
November, I will be traveling with my girlfriend, and 3 of her sisters. (She has one other, who will not be joining us.) This will be her sisters&#
The Prom is very funny, and a lot of fun, so I would definitely add that to the possible list.
I personally was not a fan of Mean Girls, but I can see how a son your age might enjoy it. I would go with The Prom over it, but that's just me.
Saw Tootsie in its out of town try out in Chicago last October, and absolutely loved it. I think it will do well on Broadway, and I can see it getting a lot of nominations come Tony Time. That said, it's geared a bit
My friend and I ate at Joe Allen in between the two parts of Harry Potter back in December. The service was wonderful, and they did a great job to make sure you had time. I had ordered the chicken, which they said might take a while to make, but it came out really quick, I think in about 20 minutes or so after I ordered it. We did not feel rushed. Yes, if you get there early enough, I'm sure they'll look for a way to seat you.

I seem to remember they were pretty vague with the early trailers for the original Frozen also, so it's nothing new for Disney.

Oh, the critics would love that. They would be racing to see who could make the obvious joke first. In fact, I imagine this show will inspire a lot of Jackson song-title inspired jokes in reviews.
So, I used my Audience Rewards points to get a ticket for To Kill a Mockingbird on Friday, May 3rd. The ticket I managed to get is Front Mezzanine, Seat F 101 (which is on the aisle).
I have never sat up in the Mezzanine at the Shubert before. How is it up there, in terms of leg room? I'm not too worried, since it's an aisle seat, but just wanted to get some feedback from those who saw the production from that area.
JustVisiting said: "I hope you're okay with the high risk of missing Hadestown that Wednesday. Flying into either JFK or LaGuardia is a mess right now. Delays are constant, gates don't open up in time, etc. Perhaps you get lucky and actually land at 11 but you may not make it out of the airport until noon, especially if you're checking a bag. Then if you're at LaGuardia, catching a cab or Uber with all the current construction is insane and it may take another half an
Thanks to those of you who responded. The good news is I found an option where I don't have to choose!
Looking at flights, I was looking for an Economy Plus seat. I'm a tall person (over 6 feet), so I need the extra leg room. However, I actually found a deal where a first class ticket was actually $50 cheaper round trip than the Economy Plus. Factor in the fact that I will not be paying luggage fees with a first class ticket, and I'll be saving more
That is a good point. I was not sure if Daniels would still be with the play by the time I got out there. I saw him in both Blackbird and God of Carnage, and loved his performances there, and would love to see him in this.
Another option I am looking at is possibly seeing one on Friday evening, and the other on a matinee on Sunday, May 5th, before I flew back home. But, that would depend on the kind of flight I could get. I don't have a super long
Well, my December theater trip ended just 2 weeks ago, but already am making plans for my upcoming Spring trip, which will be Wednesday, May 1st to Sunday the 5th. I have locked in almost all of my shows, except for the one on Friday, May 3rd, and am trying to decide between two shows.
For anyone curious, here is what I currently have locked in...Ain't Too Proud (May 1st), Hillary and Clinton (May 2nd), Gary: A Sequel to Titus Andronicus (May 4 - Matinee), and Kiss Me Kate (M
Don't know if there's an audience for this here, but it's an interesting bit of info regardless...
For well over 20 years, there has been a nearly annual stage musical production of the popular Japanese anime/manga Sailor Moon performed in Japan. And now, for the first time ever, the most recent production is coming to America. The production will be performed in Washington D.C. at the Warner Theater on March 24th at 7 PM. Afterward, the production will be
Yeah, that is...I don't know what the heck it is. The show is so much fun, and that's what they should be emphasizing. This emphasizes absolutely nothing, and entices people to just walk on by.
First time I've heard of this, but the overall excitement here has me intrigued, and thinking of looking into it for my trip next May. Is there any show that this can be compared to? Is it a funny, dark, or complex show? I will definitely have to do some investigating, and looking on Youtube for song samples, but anyone who could provide more info than what the article here announcing its opening next year would be appreciated.
My next theater trip is coming up just two weeks from tomorrow! I will be visiting NY December 10th to the 15th with my girlfriend (who has come with me once last summer), and a very good friend of mine who has never been to NY before. I am particularly looking forward to showing them the city during the Christmas season, and our marathon of shows. (We are seeing a total of six shows the week we are there.)
Whenever I am getting ready for a theater trip, I do have a few
Seeing this on Thursday, December 13th with my girlfriend as part of a theater trip I am taking with her and another friend December 10 to the 15th. (We are also seeing Frozen, Harry Potter Parts 1 and 2, and The Ferryman). The show sounds like a lot of fun, and I'm happy to see the positive response to last night's performance here. I doubt this will last long, but it sounds like a show I will be glad I got a chance to see. Kind of like Bright Star a few years ago,
Thanks so much for the detailed information and good weather wishes! Yeah, we're going February 23rd, so hopefully the weather will be semi-decent that day. I live in Southern Wisconsin, just above the border of Illinois, so I can take a bus or train down, both of which are only 2 hours away from Chicago, and drop off about 10 to 15 minute walk away from most theaters.
I am also seeing Tootsie on Saturday, October 6th. I'll be going alone on that trip.&nbs
