Just noticed that there's a new musical adaptation of A Little Princess at Signature Center this weekend. I haven't seen any buzz about this at all, so has anyone else heard anything about it?
I saw this yesterday and to be honest, wasn't really a fan. It might be a Pinter thing but I felt like I couldn't really see the intricacies of the interactions that has everyone else raving. I thought it was fairly straightforward and didn't really grab my interest. All the actors portray their roles well, but to me it didn't seem like they had to work hard to really capture the essence of their roles so I'm not sure if I'm just missing something.&nb

I just sat in orchestra I19 in house left, which was also not marked as partial view, but there were definitely times I couldn't see some of the actors. Most of it wasn't a problem since it was usually just the actors who weren't in the current scene, but as mentioned before, Tom Hidd

Doesn't that put How I Learned to Drive in a very gray area though since it's the same director and original stars so we don't know if behind the scenes they just decided that now was a good time to remount that original production on Broadway (not saying that's what they're doing but could be a possibility). Like I do find it curious that producers don't just announced their intentions to revive something in a press release but I suppose the Tony committee has final say if there's ambiguity. <
JBroadway said: "But it seems like there’ssuddenly a lot of confusion and mistakes around it again.Rule of thumb: if the producers are reviving the show, it’s a revival. Doesn’t actually matter much if it’s been on Broadway before."
How can you find out if the producers are reviving a show? I might be wrong but I don't think I saw it in any of the press articles.

Thanks, I wasn't too familiar with it but I just moved it over to revivals.

In general, I tend to notice that I get better seats if I purchase very soon after getting the winner email, though that's across all the Broadway lotteries, not just Phantom, but it never hurts to be early.

Does anyone know if City Center typically offers Access City Center tickets for under 35 yo for their gala presentations? I'm guessing not just because I haven't seen a code go out for it but wanted to check.
fwiw Matt Tamanini hinted on Broadway Radio that there would be a Company announcement sometime this upcoming week, though no clue if it's just the official announcement of the transfer or cast as well.

Has anyone tried to rush this yet? What time did you get there and how were your seats?

All the marketing says "a new interpretation" and I don't think the Jack Thorne script has been around long enough to qualify under the classics rule. It's a new script albeit same source material a la Mockingbird, like JBroadway said.

Just moved How I Learned to Drive to the revivals category. For Christmas Carol I wasn't sure if it would be a new play or special event (not for Tony consideration) but I figured Jack Thorne would probably want another shot at the Tony.

How I Learned to Drive in the Friedman, also unsure if this will be counted as new or revival
Just fyi, they don't have rush every day, so if you can I'd say check with the box office the day before to see if they're likely to offer it. Though seeing as how it's been on TKTS lately I'd say your chances are probably pretty good.
