Rosie Back to Broadway  May 11 2018, 09:28:35 AM

I believe Rosie's ship has sailed.  Rosie 2018 is not the same in terms of likability and popularity as she was during the height of her talk show days.  (The Rosie O Donnell Show, not The View)  My best advice to her would be to concentrate on small supporting comedic roles either on television and/or movies.  She needs a role to get her buzz back.  If not...she doomed career wise.



THE BOYS IN THE BAND (2018) Previews  May 9 2018, 04:04:15 PM

I feel you, Matt.  Next week, I see Boys, Angels and Iceman.  I am going to watch my liquids to the point of dehydration.



Waitress - how important are good seats  May 9 2018, 12:11:20 PM

There is no balcony.  There is a front mezzanine and regular mezzanine.  I sat towards the back of the regular mezzanine when it was the original Broadway cast.  The view was very good.  The only negative, which hopefully they have addressed all this time later, was the temperature.  It was freezing.



A RECOMMENDATION FOR ALAN HENRY  May 8 2018, 07:52:56 AM

Liza, I agree with everything you stated, except one comment.  "You owe us nothing"  In reality, they owe us EVERYTHING.  Without the posters on here,  this site would be nothing.  We provide the success of this site and more importantly we provide the revenue.  Without us, there would be no discussions, no reviews and even more important, no drama.  Which is really the catalyst for when this site really makes money and brings in the ad revenu

Frozen Seating/Children  Apr 22 2018, 11:36:35 AM

I wouldn't have liked that behavior if I had paid $40 for the ticket.  But you have to expect that kind of behavior for the type of show it is.  Add, that most parents nowadays, do not discipline their "little darlings". Top it off, with people not thinking rules apply to them. Combine those, equals why I have zero interest in seeing this show.



HELLO, DOLLY! Sets August 25 Closing Date; Bette Midler to Return July 17  Apr 20 2018, 11:07:00 PM

I think that Dame was referring that many of her past concerts had been filmed, especially for HBO.

I feel confident that at least 90% of the subscribers at my theatre have no idea who Betty Buckley is. And they don't care who is in the cast of any of the shows they buy tickets to. And they certainly don't know what Equity vs non-Equity means."

I completely agree with you.  The same would be said about my city.  If Hello Dolly would come to my city, which it isn't, the subscribers would buy tickets to it because of the


Patti LuPone in Concert  Apr 20 2018, 09:24:53 PM

Xmaschild, If  you type Patti Lupone setlist, it states what songs she performed in a Chicago concert last month. (To give you an idea)



RE: What would be the latest time to leave JFK to be able to make an evenin  Apr 19 2018, 08:14:01 PM

Theatered100, Not really sure.  I was recently looking at any show Broadway or Off that offered a Sunday evening performance for my trip next month. (The options were slim) Drunk Shakespeare stood out in my memory that offered later performances.  There were more, but I can't tell you by memory, which shows they are.  It also depends on what day of the week.  I would just check each shows's website and see what time the curtain is.  Off Broadway is g

RE: What would be the latest time to leave JFK to be able to make an evenin  Apr 18 2018, 07:51:17 PM

As I mentioned earlier in this thread, there are some Off Broadway shows that have a later curtain.  Drunk Shakespeare starts at 10:00.



Has Hamilton finally hit a pricing wall (at least on tour)  Apr 18 2018, 11:12:11 AM

I know the prices vary by quite a bit depending on the market.  My city, Jacksonville, will get Hamilton in the 19/20 season.  Most of those tickets will sell by subscription.  There is no way, that Jacksonville audiences will pay $200 or more for a single ticket.  And to get first dibs, they have to buy a subscription for the 2018/19 season.  In reality, they are spending quite a bit to see Hamilton, but at least they are getting to see the other shows that season br

Where is the SUMMER Previews Thread?  Apr 18 2018, 10:55:48 AM

Lot666, I think the dress is different from the On The Radio cover.  That dress had more pastel colors than this dress.  Close, but I don't think the same.  Agree, about the hair.  Not sure about makeup.  Either way, the new cd artwork is not a flattering picture, to me, of Donna.  Also, I finally watched the clip of She Works Hard For the Money.  The clip for McArthur's Park played something else.  The She Works Hard For The Money clip looked s

Where is the SUMMER Previews Thread?  Apr 17 2018, 11:15:34 PM

Robskynyc, Are you sure this cd takes the place of a cast recording?  I had read also that this was a repackaging of hits by the Summer estate.  As much as I want to see this in May, the negative reviews and now no cast recording will affect my interest in seeing it. EDIT  I reread the article and states this is serving as a "companion" to Summer the Musical.  This could be a cheaper option than recording a cast recording.  But they didn't use the show a

Also, if the OP is not a US citizen, it may take even longer to get through customs.  (Although there have been times, when the non US citizen lines went smoother and faster than the US lines. And that was here in the US)

Your flight is international so a good portion of time, once you deplane, is spent going through customs/passport control.  Then you have checked baggage which takes up at least a half hour.  (walking to baggage pick up, waiting for the baggage, then again going through passport control).  If this was a regular flight and you had no checked baggage, I would have said go for it.  More than once, I arrived to Times Square via Air Train/subway and was at the box office in a h
