OOTI or Carousel? May 5
2018, 05:00:44 PM
If you want to go to see certain actors no matter what they're in, go see carousel. If you want a unique experience that you'll never get to experience again unless you decide to go back, see Once on This Island. Even if they tour, this setup will not be possible. I was not a huge fan of Once on This Island, some of the music is fun enough but there were other things I wanted to see more. But I wanted to see the inventive staging and I got sucked in. And even more than that, this particular Ense

Another great option is TDF.org it's the same peoplevas TKTS. It is hit or miss as far as where you're going to sit, sometimes they are awesome seats and sometimes they're not as great. It is a cheap yearly membership fee (only $12 per year if over 100 miles from NYC) so even if you use it only once, you'll likely save money. It covers Broadway, Off Broadway, Off Off Broadway, and Regional performances. One really cool thing is that any tickets you get through TDF are not subject to the food
Are we really supposed to cheer on a sociopathiccon artist who manipulates people's emotions for money and social status andthink it's'cute'? Funny we don't seem to be doing the same for Donald Trump!
Let's see how cute it is when you flash forward 6 months and go back and visit Horace after she'sspent all his money, he's lost his business andshe's moved onto the next sucker.

Side question, but I'm going to do TDF for either this Friday night or Sunday night. I'd rather do Sunday night as many more shows are available on Friday night.
Which do you think willhave the best seats on TDF and do any actors traditionally and/or frequently take Sunday nights off?
JudyDenmark said: "I say Once On This Island - the production itself is so unique in this space (in the round with the sand and the lake and everything)... you’ve never seen anything like it, andit could never tour like that. As great as My Fair Lady might be, it’s a straightforward adaptation of a classic show. You really can’t go wrong between the two, so I wouldn’t sweat the decision too much...but given that they’ve both been so highly praised across

(I always wear red to HELLO, DOLLY, anyhow.)"
I don’t know about dinner. But get there early and let’s greet each other

Hesitatingly, I did manage to snag a ticket to the evening performance on August 25th. Now I’m just waiting for Scott Rudin to screw us all and add an extra bonus performance on August 26th."
I get that you’re determined to see Bette’s final performance, but outside of ha

Just be careful .I was using mine in split screen mode. When I got tickets in the app, I maximized it and it kicked me back to the start screen .Same thing when I was flipping back and forth between app and browser when the app seemed stuck.

I'm so excited for you and hoping you get your birthday too. Are you planning on seeing Betty Buckley on the tour or do you just do Broadway?
I am excited, I got Bette's last performance. I was at Bernadette's first. I will be there next Thursday for anormal show and I also plan to watch it on tour. I wish I had seen Donna Murphy too.
At this point, it is safe to say, pricing will be revealed at 10 a.m."
I get that but as someone who is on a budget and it doesn't matter how much she wants to see it, she can't see it unless it's under a certain price, it would be very nice if they would reveal it beforehand so I can decide if it's worth going through all the hassle.
It really depends on the day you go, but I've gone a few times through TDF, and I've gotten Front Mezz, Rear Orch, and even one of the premium seats in Front Orch. View from rear orch was fine."
I know there are no guarantees but what day did you get front orch?
VintageSnarker said: "Has anyone tried TDF recently? It used to have a line about the balcony but now it says "Accessibility: Seating may be in the mezzanine; there is no elevator in this historic theatre."
I would like to take my parents before Bernadette leaves and I'm curious what would offer the best seats. I'd either rush and give them the tickets or go through TDF and get 3. "
I'll let you know. I just got seats on TDF for May 3
Stage Door Incident - DEH Apr 25
2018, 05:12:59 PM
I'm sorry that happened. Sounds very unpleasant for all involved. Thankfully, I saw DEH in previews. There were maybe 20 of us at stage door.
The smallest stage door I ever did was Indecent after they extended. There were two of us. Got to have great conversations with the actors who were truly grateful for the fans that helped them get extended.
The worst I ever saw was The Great Comet. I went during Oke's run but after the controversy. It was so crazy I couldn't stand to st
Once On This Island stage door? Apr 25
2018, 05:00:57 PM
I saw it on the last night of the BCEFA fundraiser. They announced that 4 actors were going to each pay $1 to the fund for each autograph they signed so I figured at least those 4 would be out there. I'm guessing they got tied up backstage. Only 3 actors (and only 1 of the ones announced) came out. It was one of the calmest stage doors I've been at. There were 53 of us (because I was the last in line and they counted ??). The actors were very gracious. I enjoyed it. I didn't expect to see many o
Not so. I won the first time I tried, and thinking that to be the case had already chosen another show for that time slot. The next time I entered, I didn't win. I was able to buy a cheap one though and they upgraded it at show time.
