I saw this yesterday, and I loved it. It was absolutely gorgeously staged, and I thought the score was beautiful.
I agree with the poster who said there isn't a single weak link in the cast. Each person embodied their character perfectly, and I felt that while Molly Gordon downplayed a lot, it was purposeful and fit the character.
The staging of this show and the score was very reminiscent of Spring Awakening, which may be why I enjoyed it so much. I couldn't get

Are the bleacher seats actual bleachers? As in no backs?

When I saw it off-Broadway,I actually felt like it was Act 2 that dragged some. Specifically The Pants Song. It felt pointless and seemed way too long. I also feel like Pitiful Children could benefit from being cut down a little bit.
YvanEhtNioj, where is the new song, Synced Up, located? I saw that you felt it was one of the parts that dragged.
At least so far in the previews, there are reports of a new song called Sync Up. I have not seen the Broadway production yet, I'm just going off of reports here and other places.

Audio bootlegs on Tumblr will have zero effect on whether this gets a recording.
I'd say the chances of this NOT getting an official Broadway cast recording are slim to none. It will be just as, if not more, marketable than the majority of shows that get recordings.
There are new songs (one of which has already been released in an official capacity), and half of the show (including the lead) are performers who did not appear on the Two Rivers recording.

From his Instagram, it looks like George will be out a few days on vocal rest.
I enjoyed this show off-Broadway, and I'm looking forward to seeing it in a couple of months. I'm happy for this cast and the rest of their team because the amount of love they have for this show is off the charts. I'm sure this feels like a dream come true for them, so I hope they do well.
Wow, I wonder what happened to make him call out already. Hope he gets better quickly. Luckily, they have the same (plus some new) understudies from off-Broadway, so that's probably easier.
Your view will be great from there. Nothing should be obstructed at all. Mezz A is my favorite view for DEH. The projections are really good from there because you are pretty close but can still see the full stage and floor projections (which aren't visible from the orchestra).

How was the view from right mezz? I have row A right mezzin a few months.

The view from there is great. Unless you are in the very last seat, nothing at all is obstructed (and even then, I'

Mine is the 8 o'clock. I hope there aren't any issues. I called right after I got the original email, and they told me I was guaranteed to get the same show. But seeing everyone else get their new seats is making me anxious.

I still haven't heard about mine for 2/23. I hope I hear soon, since I live out of state and am just flying in for one day to see the show.

YES indeed....THIS ^ Has to STOP for future LIVE productions. It just ruins the watching experience.
So, why are they told to act this way during the LIVE show? Thoughts?" <

Right, but in the original show, there are other references to Angel as he ("His death was in vain" stands out to me) that were completely changed to she/her for the show last night.

Another change that stood out to me was the removal of any reference to Angel as he/him. At the funeral, they also changed the line about the tourists never seeing a drag queen to never seeing "a person like her." And of course the spoken dialogue between Angel and Collins about her me outfit.
I listened to part of the Sirius XM Road to RENT Live special, and they addressed the difference in audiences between 1996 and 2019 and how Angel was perceived. Valentina labeled Angel as non-bin
I loved Jordan as Mark. He played it very different from any other Mark I've ever seen, but I thought it was great. He was more playful and humorous, and I don't know if it was intentional, but I took it as an almost coping mechanism. Watching him shift so dramatically before Halloween was really powerful.
I thought Vanessa was amazing, and I really enjoyed Brennin Hunt. He must be so disappointed with how things turned out, but he definitely brought it with Your Eyes.
