Mike Barrett said: "Not sure how people feel, but what is everyones thoughts on recording curtain calls? I personally don't like it, but it seems as if theaters don't really care if you film or take pictures then? I find it so rude, its really the only time the performers are specifically looking for a reaction from an audience. If I was an Evan who just gave my ALL on stage only to see 5 or 6 cameras in the front recording my bow id be annoyed frankly. Seems as if there isn&

Once, this lady texted throughout Act 1 - the usher walked so slowly to where the patron was (Row F247 - second to last row on aisle) that she was able to put away her phone when she was spoken to only to pull it out again when the usher left. I'm surprised the people surround

Everyone sat down at the Thursday night show too. I think it’s because it feels more like more show and not just a special encore type performance. It was a bit odd

There were just too many moments of telling, not showing that came off as lazy to me. Like the other dancer telling Satine how dangerous the Duke was, but we never really saw it. Richard Roxburgh conveyed more menace in a single scene than the Duke in the musical did for the entire show
Huss417 said: "The comments on some of the performances I personallywould blame mostly on the book. I love the show and will be seeing it for the third time but the actors can only do so much with the written material. I think the biggest example would be The Pitch Song. Yikes!"
Yeah the book is pretty bad. Some real cringe moments

I sat in the front row, and while it was probably too close, it was amazing to be so close to what is a very intimate show. It felt like it was just us and the actors

Just got out of the matinee and I thought it was great, extremely well acted.

To clarify, I thought Tveit was great last night. His singing and acting were both fantastic. There was just 0 chemistry with Olivo’s understudy. To me it seemed to be on her end. She just wasn’t believable. And like I said, the writing is pretty clunky in parts, and that doesn’t help
SouthernCakes said: "To be honest, Tveit hasn’t had chemistry with a costar ever so..."
Yeah it may be him. I asked my gf and she had a similar opinion. There just wasn’t anything convincing about their relationship. The whole book kind of suffers from a lot of telling and not showing. It seems more concerned with the spectacle of it all, which is pretty great admittedly

Unless it’s a total bomb, there’s no way this doesn’t come to New York after the run at A.R.T. I’m all for shows having a life independent of NYC, but given that Malloy and Chavkin are both based in the city, it seemsmore likely than not that

Yep, and his dad is either Apollo or a Thracian king named Oeagrus

Bummed I’m missing this, but I’m seeing the show in Boston so I’m not too upset. Apparently Dave announced he was playing Melville in the ART run
scampsweep said: "Just to verify :,when does The Music Man actually open (or begin previewing) and at which theatre? Just wondering whether it will be possible to arrange a trip to see both this and ‘Company’? Is Company an open or limited run?
Will both shows be running at the same time? And if so, does anyone know when tickets go on sale?
Sorry, lots of questions there, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks. "
