You must have an old phone that you can take the battery out."
There actually are some smartphones you can do this with. I have a Samsung Galaxy J7 that you can

No, we don't need people like that back. They are what is wrong with how things have gotten handled around here. Things get taken out of context and people are unfairly judged. But, then people like that got to hang around for so long without contributing anything of value.
I can't speak for anyone else, but I felt like I was watching the show from backstage from the extreme sides of the mezzanine. I was in row D, no indication of partial view on anything. The seats were also in pretty poor condition. However, I haven't been there in 10 years, so I don't know if the seats were fixed.

I can understand leaving some trash ( playbills, cups, candy wrappers) but when you stick gum on the seats or the rug. Spills nuts , chips, pretzels, M&M's and just leaving it in here for people to step all over it. Would you do that at home? Is it really that hard to pick up?

This was a huge problem when I saw Mean Girls this past January. It

This is odd. I agree that Queen Latifah is the only good part of this so far. The singing is not good as is the "acting." I put that in quotes since I realize the actors are there just for the songs. But, I'm not getting any feeling or emotion that fits the songs.

They were selling stuff at Little Shop of Horrors today. Signed windowcards were $200 as mentioned above. Signed playbills were $50. I don't see why they wouldn't allow people to come in and purchase. It doesn't hurt to ask. It was in the bar area as you go up the stairs. So, you aren't actually going into the theater itself.

Failing that, if you don't want to eat, then drink!"
I agree that it was fun. I did do it before I saw Oklahoma on an extremely hot day. Wasn't too crowded and easy to skip around if certain areas are being crowded.

Because of the popularity of "emotional support pets" now, people feel entitled to bring their pets wherever they want. I won't say all are bad and I do get the ones that do behave and are helpful to their owners. But, I know not all are like that. Pets are not supposed to come into where I work, but people do anyway. We even had someone bring their iguana in one day. Oddly, that didn't bother me and it was cute.
The flea market is definitely not a good place for pets anymore based on

Jordan I tried for Ritz notepads. Same deal. They wanted $5 no budging. Guess they like carrying them back."
I wanted some too, but didn't want to pay $5 at the end of the day. I noticed they still had a bunch. Last year were

Thanks for explaining The Cher Show posters. Glad I was not interested in them at all then. At least I could tell that Kristin Chenoweth did sign my On the 20th Century playbill.
I have to say, I did get a lot of stuff I liked, but it definitely wasn't the best flea market in the 10 years I've been going. Prices were insane at some tables for essentially lackluster items. The creative selling from the past isn't there anymore either. It also is annoying how they advertise this running

I saw signed Cher Show posters at I believe the Dancers over 40 table. No idea how much they were early in the day, but were $20 at 5:30.

I saw it today as well. It was fun, but definitely not worthy of a high ticket price. I hope it was just something to fill Roundabout's season and has no intentions of Broadway. I think I found act 2 more entertaining than 1. But, I do think it is because of Megan Lawrence. Was hoping for a little more camp. This didn't see deliver in that at all.

Did anyone buy 1 of the giant Anastasia banners? It was tempting for $40, but I definitely have no space for it anywhere.

I hope the table that was trying to sell Avenue Q 15th anniversary key rings for an obscene amount of money lower the price on their merchandise. I didn't buy stuff because they wanted $40 for concession stand cups that others had for like $5-$10. It was from closed shows, but nothing really that struck me as being worth that much. The key rings were like $10-$25, if I remember right.

I just left. Probably will go back later. It was a mixed bag for me. I opted not to search for playbills or huge posters. Some tables were easy to navigate. Others, not so much. I also sweat really badly, so it was miserable for me at the 8th ave end of 44th for me. I'm glad I missed the pik a ticket booth again.
My best items so far are a cast signed On the 20th Century revival playbill and an opening night Shuffle Along plaque thingy.

Since all of those shows have tables, there will definitely be merchandise at them . Just can't guarantee what will be there.

The runningtime on the website was pretty accurate. 2h15m including the intermission."
Cool. Thanks!

I think Sweet Concessions usually has a few different cups available. There was 1 last year that had so many, but I don't remember what it was.
I agree that the autograph/photobooth lineups aren't the best. However, I would never turn my nose up at anyone willing to donate their time to appear. The last time I went a few years ago, I got Harvey Feirstein, Anthony Rapp, Karen Olivo, Laura Osnes, Bernadette Peters, Debra Monk, and other I can't think of this moment in 1 session. It doe
