West Side Story Rush/Lottery Updates  Dec 16 2019, 06:15:19 PM

HBBrock said: "I got a rush ticket at 7:30 last night and was in Orchestra Row X seat 21. Full stage view. It was perfectly fine except you miss the very top of the screen. Did not affect my enjoyment of the show at all. Well worth the $40."

Weird, I went to the box office around 3:30 and was told they didn’t have any rush tickets available for that night.  I wonder if they open up more closer to the show (if so it sounds like these seats are a much better


Way Too Early 2020 Tony Predictions thread  Dec 16 2019, 12:09:29 AM
Practical light elements are considered for both categories, as they are a collaboration between the set and lighting designers. If. You wanna get really technical, the actual light element itself is set design while the light it produces is lighting design.

Enjolras5 said: "I'm curious if anyone has been able to deduce what Taylor Swift is singing about in the song "Beautiful Ghosts?" Anyone who knows the context of the Broadway show able to provide some guesses as to how it will fit into the plot?"
 

The song will be sung by Victoria (Francesca Hayward) in the film and it’s really just about her longing for a sense of belonging and wondering if she will ever live out her glory days.

Good point!  I hadn’t considered since the songs were from the movie it wouldn’t be eligible.  Who is even eligible then?  Is it just Mrs Doutfire and Six?  Could we potentia

Ledaero said: "cjmclaughlin10 said: "Any update on rush/lotto?????"

Rush update: They are selling boxes for rush. 2 people in line at 9am, 4 people in line at 10am when box office opened. All of us got the boxes, partial view. Not sure if/what rush seats are once they run out of box seats.

Very excited for first preview!

How much were the rush tickets?  Also, did anyone else try rush and get anything other than box seats


Despite Turnaround, ‘Beetlejuice’ Being Forced Out of Theater  Dec 9 2019, 08:16:38 PM

ModernMillie3 said: "A lot of Broadway actors are upset about it, as they should be.

They could have just put The Music Man in another house. No one cares if they bought tickets beforehand what theater it was going to be in. This will be huge and make tons of money, but at the expense of another. What a shame.
"


Also not unprecedented, remember when DEH was going to open at the Belasco?

 



SpongeBob the Musical: Viewing Thread  Dec 8 2019, 09:43:59 PM
PSA: The version being re-aired has been cut down even more, most noticeably a bunch of songs: “No Control,” “Daddy Knows Best.” “Poor Pirates,” “Bikini Bottom Boogie,” and “I Guess I Miss You.” Seems to be about another 30 minutes cut as this one ran a little under 1:30 plus commercials. So those who missed out the first time, you may want to just watch it on Amazon or iTunes if you wanna see the “full” show.

SING STREET @ NYTW  Dec 7 2019, 10:01:29 AM
Heard from a very reliable source this is transferring in the Spring and will meet the cut off to compete in this year’s Tonys. They have already signed their contract with the theater and everything.

DiscoCrows said: "bwayphreak234 said: "FANtomFollies said: "Sounds like another phoned-in set design by David Korins."

I have never found any of David Korins set designs to be "phoned-in"... David Rockwell, on the other hand, is hit or miss, but his design for Pretty Woman and Tootsie last season were pretty darn bad. Hard to believe that he's the same designer behind the GORGEOUS set for the She Loves Me revival...

Jordan Fisher—DEH  Dec 3 2019, 11:50:38 AM
I would say Jordan Fisher is just as big a “name” as Taylor Trench or Noah Galvin. I’d hardly call it stunt casting, although he will definitely bring in some new fans to the show. In my opinion stunt casting is bringing someone in with no stage credits just for their name. After all “stunt” implies some level or danger or risk, casting a trained theater performer with Broadway credits is hardly a risk. Even Bette Middler wasn’t stunt casting, we all knew she would be wonderful. I would con

Anyone else notice this is now the 3rd time Beth has played a role on stage that Meryl has played (or will play in the case of The Prom) on film. They both played Donna in Momma Mia as well.

Edit: lol plannietink looks like we had the same thought!

It’s okay, very forgettable.  But for TDF prices I do think it’s worth seeing.  Just adjust your expectations accordingly.



Flying Over Sunset vs Girl From the North Country vs Tina  Nov 25 2019, 08:44:29 AM
I have not seen Flying Over Sunset, but I was not a big fan of Girl From the North Country or Tina. GFTNC has gorgeous arrangements of Bob Dylan songs sung by an incredible cast, but suffered from, in my opinion, a terrible book that was bleak, bland and just not interesting. Tina was fun, but it is a by the numbers jukebox musical. Adrienne Warren is giving a sensational performance as Tina, but as someone who is not a huge fan of jukebox musicals or Tina’s music I was (perhaps unsurprisingl

I feel like Brantley wouldn’t be a huge fan of this, but Green May give it a critic’s pick. They’re tastes don’t always coincide and this is a decent example.

KRISTIN CHENOWETH: FOR THE GIRLS Show Thread  Nov 17 2019, 05:08:47 PM

“By the way, I did stage door (which I only half regret because it was so cold and it was so late) and Kristintook well over an hour to come out. But when she came out it was like a burst of warmth, she didn't stop smiling the whole time. My goodness.

She is a treasure!
"

What was the stage door like?  Was it super crowded?  How many Playbills did she sign?  Did she take selfies?  Also, did she sign non-show stuff like Wicked items?
