Don't mess with Uber or the subway on a Sunday. Take the LIRR as HogansHero suggested above. Hands down the best way to get to JFK. Though keep in mind you will need to take the AirTrain from Jamaica station to the actual airport. And sometimes that is slow.
KING KONG - Previews Oct 12
2018, 12:46:41 AM
This show should have been a straight 70 minutes with just Anne and the Kong puppet. No numbers, no book, no lyrics. Just them with some underscoring while they meet in Skull Island, sail to New York, run through the streets, climb the Empire State, and then hold hands gazing longingly into the sunrise.
Seriously though the puppet was stunning and the effects with his movements were amazing. Everything else was a trainwreck.

The Hirschfeld is way too big for Hadestown. That show would do better in Circle in the Square.
Kerry Washington's company Simpson Street is co-lead producing AMERICAN SON and has courted Jada, Shonda Rhimes, and Gabrielle Union-Wade to co-produce the play. All black females.
Promoting CMs and GMs of color is important, yes. But very few lead producers started out in these positions. Most lead producers are people of extreme means (Daryl Roth, Stacey Mindich, Roy Furman, the Kagans, etc), had other successes
I imagine recording it and streaming it was the main motivation behind the transfer. Was just speculating the other day about what was next for the Cort. Seems as though that theatre's biggest box office successes are star-studded plays or solo-comedy shows.

Thank you! Quite a big difference! I look forward to milling about the store without buying anything and loudly complaining about what a great theatre it could have been.

Revenue to investors from licensing is an extremely small slice of the pie. It is a percentage (typically 40%) of the AUTHOR'S ROYALTY not the box office. So let's say a show grosses (net) $100 million. The royalty for apr

...you thought this would be a feeding frenzy like a multi-billion dollar, two-decadeworldwide franchise and a show featuring one of the greatest and most belovedpopular songwriters of all time?

Thanks for the snark. But, no. Not at that level. Obviously. But didn&
I rushed to Telecharge to get a ticket for first preview and kept getting interrupted and just assumed I wouldn't be able to score a ticket for that date after all. About two hours later, I finally got back to completing my transaction and, to my surprise, the same seat popped up as available (dead center Orchestra). So...is this not going to sell out? Or were fans just caught off guard by the surprise announcement? After my recent frantic dashes to purchase Harry Potter an
It needs a big house not only for the size of the set but also for the size of the budget. It would take years to recoup at the Kerr. The Winter Garden would be PERFECT.
They will probably be able to raise it. All the producers and investors who missed the boat on Dear Evan Hansen are tripping over themselves to get a piece. Even though they don't "understand" or even like the show, the DEH comparison has them seeing $$$ so don't think it will have trouble raising.
When the towers fell The world was set in motion A love across the ocean Grew where bombs fell War, they say, is hell But through its many dangers Two lovers who were strangers Hold each other under your veil We found sanctuary in the hurt locker A spot of safety on the roads Love can be scary in the hurt locker It's tender and it's raw We're filled with shock and awe And we will be co
My feeling is the Prom move to the Longacre was more a real estate move than having anything to do with the renovations. Longacre is on the "better" side of Broadway with better foot traffic.
