Ticketmaster - Seat Change Help  Sep 3 2019, 11:33:10 AM

dramamama611 said: "Its more up to the producers of each show, not the ticket sellers."

100% true but it is always more time consuming in Ticketmaster than Telecharge and often the first people to answer on Ticketmaster will just say no (keep asking for a supervisor). 

I just successfully changed dates for Hadestown in November on Ticketmaster. Took two days, as they have to contact box office (Telecharge checks with you on hold). I was charged $1


Can you cut through the Hotel Edison?  Aug 31 2019, 10:32:07 PM

MarkBearSF said: "Thanks. The latest would be in the post curtain rushafter the PM performance of The Inheritance (3+ hrs, I think). With my husband with his cane, I think most hotel security would let us through the lobby upon request."

You can also say you are going to the restaurant or meeting a guest at the bar. 



Mixed reviews in- is Moulin Rouge a Big Far Hit?  Jul 27 2019, 03:17:03 PM

Pippin said: "Yes. I was referring to the person above me.

I think right now people are used to super long runs for super blockbuster shows (mormon, Aladdin, Beautiful), but long runs like that are recent phenomena.


"

Really depends on how you define recent. A Chorus Line, CATS, Les Mis, even Rent doesn’t seem like “recent phenomena” to me and feels like a trend that opened the door for some of the other long runs you cite.


No, Tootsie is NOT closing next.  Jul 26 2019, 12:34:01 AM

I received the same survey. 



HADESTOWN cast album - thoughts?  Jul 26 2019, 12:20:03 AM

Yondr Pouches  Jul 24 2019, 12:38:26 AM

Broadway Joe said: "jbird5 said: "At the Chappelle show am attendant took the phone and put it in the pouch and secured it. It’s not foolproof but he was checking to make sure they were off. He even had to show one woman how to turn her phone off because she didn’t know how (no she wasn’t a senior)."

Why should an attendant people able to touch my phone? Who pays for the phone when one of these attendants drops it and breaks it?


Hadestown Understudies  Jul 23 2019, 01:12:54 AM

Do we have any idea on contract dates for the leads?



Les miserdead  Jul 14 2019, 12:56:25 AM

I was fortunate to see the OBC right after it opened on Broadway. Had seats way up in the balcony that we bought from scalpers on the street. I might as well have been in the first row as the show, the music, and the voices filled the theatre. Truly life changing.

I’m not as bothered by the new production as others. At the time, spectacular motion scenery was very en vogue (always thought it odd when the barricade coming together got a round of applause and felt it took


Cynthia Erivo in Concert  Jul 13 2019, 02:06:45 AM

Was lucky enough to catch Cynthia Erivo in concert with the San Diego Symphony tonight. It was spectacular in every way.

 

Not sure if she has more dates, but if it is anywhere near you, run, don’t walk to get tickets.



Having trouble getting 1 ticket for Hadestown in Ticketmaster  Jul 11 2019, 01:13:04 AM
I always cross my fingers for Telecharge and groan when I find out a show is Ticketmaster. They are patently awful at customer service.

TicketMaster Resell Question  Jul 7 2019, 02:50:52 PM
If you can’t get to the box office or find a number, call Ticketmaster and keep asking for a supervisor until you get someone willing the help you. They will moan and groan and say that can’t do anything but it isn’t true. They have to go through the box office, and it takes them a couple of days (Telecharge does it instantly), but they can do it.

Allow yourself a good hour to be on the phone, but I have switched days more than once. Their customer service is his abysmal, and of course


Laura Benanti Gave A Classy Read Last Night At MY FAIR LADY  Jun 22 2019, 05:36:06 PM

ArtMan said: "People already know what they are suppose to do. They just don't care. Until Producers and Theatre Owners tell their staff to remove the person with no refund it's just going to keep on happening. It's no different with movie theatres. Grow some and don't worry about a poor review or a call to Corporate."

EXACTLY.   Don’t come up with ways to inconvenience everyone, instead of just doing what needs to be done with the violator


Solution to Cell Phones on Bway  Jun 15 2019, 10:38:17 AM

dramamama611 said: "No, but i believe the concept is: if you ARE caught with one being USED, they can/will escort you out of the theater. (Will that actually happen? Who knows.)"

 But theatres don’t do this now. If they did escort those people out now, this whole conversation would be unnecessary. See, that’s what drives me crazy. Instead of inconveniencing everyone, driving  costs up, and creating a ridiculous process, just empower the


Dave Chappelle to play the Lunt-Fontanne in  Jun 13 2019, 01:05:10 AM



Personally I'll never attend a show that I have to do this because I find being treated like a child insulting. Just because a few morons can't turn their phones off doesn't mean I have to be treated like a child. "

I had to look twice to see if this was an old thread that I had written the above. 110% agree. 



Cher show at the tonys performance  Jun 11 2019, 12:49:35 AM

Two words : Oy and no!

I was embarrassed watching it.  Georgeanddot nailed it:


“I've seen better Cher impressions from drunk drag queens on the subway at 3 AM.”

Generally speaking, most Building built before ADA are not compliant. Actually most buildings are not 100% compliant unless they are brand new, because the code adapts and changes regularly. The same can be said for actual building codes. When you talk about a building built in 1990, it was built to 1990 codes, not 2019 codes. Codes are always changing.

 

That being said, most jurisdiction require 20% of the value of upgrades/renovations/construction be allocated to ADA upg


Princess Diana Musical, DIANA, Set for World Premiere at La Jolla Playhouse  Apr 14 2019, 08:49:49 PM
I saw this last night and here are my thoughts:

First the good: Jeanna de Waal gives a great performance, as does Judy Kaye. In fact, all of the performers were good. The scenery moves the story along and the costumes were gorgeous. The book was fine, while not great.

The not so good: The score was not memorable...at all. I remember one song. One. And it was because it was a great comedic moment. The rest blended into a monochromatic, non distinguishable bore.

Tired of cell phones going off at a performance?  Aug 23 2018, 01:28:49 AM

Broadway Joe said: "....

I always turn my phone off at events, I'm more than capable of not having to be treated as a child because a few morons can't behave. "

THIS ^^^^^^^ X 100

Eject out the offender (lady at Spongebob above).  

For those of you that say it can’t be done because the offended will yell and scream for a refund but you’re more than willing to offend audience members that have done nothing wrong.
