I saw Pretty Woman tonight. It wasn’t something I really wanted to see but it was either that or King Kong... While I’m still not sure if I enjoyed it I will say that I was bowled over by Orfeh’s voice. I’ve never seen her in anything before. And all I could think the whole time is that she would have slayed Hedwig if she had been given the chance. Does anyone know if this was ever a possibility? Can we just bring back HATAI. Please.
I think she sounds great. I might have to make a return trip to see her."
I saw Kerstin in May when Lauren was out - I thought she was fabulous! I would highly recommend seeing her in the role. I feel she's a bit more age appropriate?? (without knowing her age). Any
His essay is one of the most powerful things I’ve ever read. Bless him for sharing his experience. I hope his message will empower others to share and I hope others can take solace that they are not alone and help is available.
I don't really understand why anyone needs to be negative on his appearance. I don't know him, but I met him once at a show and he was very nice and gracious to me. Yes he definitely has advantages with his family status, but it seems to me that he's a hard worker and has a genuine wish to contribute to the theatre community both with high quality productions and pro-active service models.
How he presents himself in style and fashion is complet

Michael Luwoye cried through this song and it was gut wrenching. That’s the first time IVe seen tears from a Hamilton. Completely took that song to another level for me. Everyone seated around us was crying as well.

I saw the show last night with Kerstin and she was a marvel to behold. Her voice is beautiful. Brought tears to my eyes. I don’t know how long Lauren is out but if you get the chance to see Kerstin I highly recommend it. It would be a shame to miss her.
Being out of town doesn’t really give you too many options if a principal is out for the night. You can either get a refund and miss the show or take a chance on the understudy. I always take the chance and have never been disappointe
I saw this yesterday and agree with everything Charley Kringas Inc wrote. There were definite sound issues with the theatre being so small. I, too, had a tough time deciphering lyrics in some of the songs. I did really enjoy it though - it felt to me like something I would see at a Fringe - which is a compliment. I like Fringe productions. I kept trying to figure out how this would transfer to Broadway and can't really see it happening in its present form.&nb
Reading everyone's responses makes me feel so much better because I cry all the time at shows. At Hedwig and Hamilton I had tears streaming down my face. DEH had me almost at ugly cry. I knew better the second time I saw it and brought Kleenex. Falsettos had me well up.
The one that reall caught me by suprise, in a good way, was "Sunday" in Sunday In The Park With George. I'd knew nothing about the musical and had not previ
Too bad Pasek and Paul didn’t join the chorus. Could have clinched their EGOT! In all seriousness though - this seems like a ridiculous category. But I still hope they win. They’re a lovely group and that was a wonderful performance.
Was fortunate to catch the Hamilton performance in Seattle yesterday and my first words are... WOW!! I honestly wasn't expecting this calibre for a tour - which is very smallminded of me I realize. The stage was perfect. The acoustics at The Paramount are excellent. It's a larger theatre so there's always a worry for me how the sound will be. But it was wonderful. I sat further back than I normally would for a performance (Row DD Orch). I really
Oh my heart .... those poor little babies... so sad. Sending light and love to the families - I can't imagine their grief.

I would agree with BC. Alexander Hamilton’s entrance always gives me chills every time I see it.
And the first that came to mind was indeed Hedwig!
I'm sad to hear everyone's bad experiences. I was fully expecting a sh**show, but it was super easy for me. I had the 11am slot so that must have help exponentially. I looked at quite a few dates and released a lot of tickets. Ended up with Sat Oct 13th OrchLF Row G. total for 2 tickets was $800. It will be an event I'm sure!
Good luck to all still trying to get tickets - sending positive vibes out your way!
Final casting announced. I'm going to see it in May with my daughter (Christmas present and Mothers Day tied in one package). I'm intrigued with the premise but a bit nervous after reading some of the reivews. Oh well - always open to new experiences! Is anyone familiar with this cast?
canadian fan said: "I don't even bother with the Broadway across Canada. Even if they do come (and rarely does anything that great come to Vancouver) the venue is terrible. Its not the least bit intimate. I live just outside Vancouver and have seen probably 30-40 shows in Seattle over the years, and literally 1 in Vancouver, and won't attend another Vancouver show. I would rather make the 3 hour drive and spend the weekend in Seattle and see a show in a much better Venue.
