Songs for a New World  Jun 28 2018, 12:57:24 PM

I was there last night and have to say I thought it was fantastic. I thought all four performers were outstanding and Mykal Kilgore was ready to blow the roof off the building with that voice!

I think it’s interesting to look at this as a first work JRB as I felt so many shades of his other works in this.

I’ve always liked the original cast recording but wasn’t sure if I’d be engaged by seeing this in person, but I felt like each song/scene really pl


Everyone's Fine with Virginia Woolf  Jun 8 2018, 10:52:40 AM

Did anyone see this yet? I saw it last night and had problems with it, but did find things i liked. I found it throwing everything in and seeing what stuck.

There are several visual gags, including one with a plant that had me laughing well after the show was over last night.

The show runs 1:15 with no intermission and the problem is it occasionally feels long. The first 30 minutes are very strong. There's a Norman conquests-esque moment where Martha goes to the


New Tina Turner Musical Sets World-Premiere Dates in London  Apr 17 2018, 11:06:49 AM

I just got back from a London trip. I saw this.  The good news it is definitely better than many jukebox musicals, though it could still be improved. Yet again we have to start with a young version of Tina which to me is completely unnecessary. (And just like Donna, yes she sang in church!) The projections are also awful. 

The real reason that this works better is Adrienne Warren who is absolutely incredible in this.I think Tony worthy. She is giving a truly fantastic perform


Billie Piper to reprise her Olivier Winning performance in  Mar 30 2018, 02:45:50 PM

I saw this last night. Full disclosure I was a bit ill for the second half of the show so maybe I wasn't in the best mindset, but I agree with everyone I thought Billie Piper was absolutely incredible. It's a heck of a performance and one you shouldn't miss. I will say, that I was less impressed with the play itself and there are little ticks about this production that annoyed me. 

Some sections really dragged, and the interludes between scenes with the music that perp


NYCC Grand Hotel  Mar 21 2018, 11:00:58 PM

I was there tonight. What a delight. Yet again, Encores goes above and beyond their mission. No books in sight, fully staged, even with a lovely set! I thought the multi-level set was perfect. As another poster mentioned Roundabout could transfer this production tomorrow and it would be ready!

I've been so excited to see this show. I've had a close friend who is a huge fan of the original describe it multiple times and I have been hooked on the cast recording and LOVED the TONY


THREE TALL WOMEN (2018) Previews  Mar 8 2018, 01:28:00 PM

I saw this last night in the snowstorm and wow was it worth it. My TDF ticket was orchestra row R (second to last row) and was a great view. Glenda Jackson and Laurie Metcalf are both incredible and the show is just brilliant. I thought the play itself was so brilliant and the staging and direction just worked so well together. I absolutely will be seeing this one multiple times. 

For those wondering, I did the stage door after, which was a small crowd due to the weather. Both Lau


LOBBY HERO Previews  Mar 7 2018, 01:26:58 PM

I saw this show last night. I was somewhat enjoying it going into intermission. While Michael Cera is always Michael Cera, I thought the part was a decent fit for him and his jokes seemed to land well.

I was pretty unimpressed with Chris Evans. His part is on the smaller side, and for the most part it felt to me like he was playing a caricature of what someone thought a cop was based on a a bunch of episodes of Law & Order down to that pornstache he was wearing. 

I was


ESCAPE TO MARGARITAVILLE Previews  Feb 21 2018, 12:50:37 AM

I saw this on Monday night and had nightmares from the dead insurance men ballet that somehow works its way into both acts!

It’s rare for a show to be both sleep inducing in act 1, and then so trippy that I can’t believe my eyes in act 2. I am not the target audience. I only knew Margaritaville and Cheeseburger in Paradise, but somehow have been to two Margaritaville locations so I definitely at least understand what the Buffet brand is going for.  I think it’s p


Cardinal @ 2nd Stage  Jan 12 2018, 11:34:19 PM

Negative is a very appropriate word. Frankly I thought this was awful.

I immediately thought of this as a poor-man’s SWEAT. It deals with a crumbling factory town and mayor (Adam Pally) and his friend (Anna Chlumsky) who has an idea to (literally) paint the town red as a way to draw tourism back to the town.  Needless to say this does not quite go as planned.

I won’t give away all of the twists and turns here (if you can call them that), but there are a large am


THE CHILDREN Previews  Nov 29 2017, 10:38:36 PM

I saw this tonight and have to say I'm very surprised at all of the negative reviews on here. It is a bit too long (tonight's show ran exactly 2 hours), but I found it to quite funny and gripping with three excellent performances. 

I saw Francesca Annis onstage in the West End in 2008 and loved her so I was thrilled at the chance to see her onstage again. She is wonderful here and gives the strongest performance out of the three. She delivers so brilliantly dry line readin


Brigadoon  Nov 17 2017, 11:40:46 AM

I don't really have much to add other than to agree that it really was a perfect evening. Even from waaay up in the balcony this show played beautifully. Kelli O'Hara was stunning and her voice filled city center so beautifully. I really wish Steven Pasquale had been able to do this as I know he would have been excellent, but Patrick Wilson was fantastic. Stephanie was fantastic and hysterical. The orchestra sounded amazing.

This truly was such a full production it surprised me


Ticket prices for Ben's final DEH performance  Nov 17 2017, 10:38:44 AM

As much as I love Ben, the thought of that final audience makes me want to stay far, far away. 



ONCE ON THIS ISLAND (2017) Previews  Nov 14 2017, 12:04:56 AM

I saw this tonight courtesy of the added benefit of everyone winning the lotto. I am have to say I sadly fell on the side of Whizzer. Over-directed was the first thing I said when the show ended. I love immersive shows, and I appreciated what Arden was going for here, but it seemed like everything going on was meant to distract me from the actual show. 

Walking is quite a sight with the sand on the stage, the water, THE GOAT, THE CHICKEN (WHY IS THERE A CHICKEN?), and all the


SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS Previews  Nov 9 2017, 04:25:59 PM

I saw this last night and have been dreading it ever since it was announced for the fall. I have never been a fan of the TV show and every time that theme song comes on my skin starts to crawl.I agree with Bwayphreak, don't judge it till you have seen it! 

That being said, I found it pretty hard to resist this show. It isn’t perfect, and I think the having different people write the songs was a mistake and especially in act 1 felt like the songs were often totally unrela


Mean Girls @ The National in DC - Reactions  Nov 6 2017, 10:52:01 PM

I saw Mean Girls over the weekend. I watched the movie again for the first time in a long time the night before (wow it still holds up!).

The best thing I can saw about the musical is that it keeps the humor of the film and Tina Fey has written a mostly hysterical book. I thought many of the new added jokes were hysterical and delivered brilliantly by the cast.

The worst thing I can say about the show is that I can’t remember a single song. It’s all pleasant enough i


Immersive Wild Party in Brooklyn  Nov 6 2017, 12:38:56 PM

This was it! I loved it. It was in 2011. 

 

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/21/theater/reviews/hello-again-michael-john-lachiusas-show-in-soho-review.html



Immersive Wild Party in Brooklyn  Nov 4 2017, 10:24:08 PM

I saw this last night and have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I saw LaChiusa version for the first time in London earlier this year and enjoyed it. I also saw the Lippa version at Encores and was quite disapointed due to the hacked up nature of the show.

That being said I feel like I'm one of two people who happen to like both versions! I'm not hear to fight about which one is better, just report that I think this production is surprisingly strong. I like a lot of Lippa'


METEOR SHOWER Previews  Nov 1 2017, 11:10:24 PM

I saw this tonight and I agree, that it is often very funny. Laura Benanti walks away with the show, and I agree, that she should be in consideration for another tony for this performance. (The way she says no to the dip in one hand motion was just brilliant and hysterical)

Amy Schumer is great in the later scenes as mentioned above, where she gets to be closesr to well...Amy Schumer. I liked her throughout though and thought she had a warm presence onstage even when her character has


The Band's Visit Rush Policy Announced  Oct 30 2017, 12:33:13 PM

I rushed the show this weekend Saturday 10/28. I arrived at 6:50am and was 5th in line. There was someone who came right behind me though I’d say the majority of people arrived between 7:30am and 8:15am. I wouldn’t come later than that to risk not getting a ticket though a two show day always helps. The line was around 50ish people by the time the box office opened by my guess, not sure who did or didn’t get tickets.

I was given row E 18 and 20 in the orchestra which


ILLYRIA Previews  Oct 26 2017, 02:25:01 PM

I saw this last night. For those asking about free tickets I saw a lady with an ipad near the box office. I have a feeling I could have gotten one had I not already had tickets going in as the theater was not full and there was no line.

I am a huge fan of Richard Nelson’s other work. The Apple Family Plays and The Gabriels are both among my favorite plays I have ever seen. Unfortunately, seeing my first of his that is a “historical” play as he puts it I’m not su
