Terrific show. Saw it in London this past Summer. A cast you wont believe. Occasionally hard to understand accent, but very watchable and enjoyable. Will see it a second time( which I rarely do).
I scoured the internet yesterday in search of seat numbers within rows especially in the orchestra. Where I had to wait the 20,000 people in the cue before me, I was in hope of getting one of the $199 seats and getting it in the first 15 rows of the orchestra but not too far on the side. As we all know the Lyric is still undergoing renovation. The L,R,C routine seating plan that once existed, is now broken up into two larger orchestra sections with an aisle between them (how large I do n
Ladies and Gentleman and Children of all Ages- No matter the age or the venue, my fellow broadway followers, what you are witnessing is the current state of life. It is not restricted to the theater or to restaurants, or to the roadway, or to the Senate or Presidency. It is here. Recognize it. It is not going away.
As I operate by appointment time in my employment, it is obvious that the values of our society have degraded beyond belief. People don’t call to cancel, the
I saw the original Barnum. Good show. Saw The Ferryman as it opened in London this past summer. Excellent production and very long (approx 3 hours) filled with children and animals for the show. If it transfers, will probably use many local actors- even though original cast was great. Although I had huge interest, not sure how IRA recap would attract a large enough fan base. You do need to have a background of "The Troubles" in the 1970"s to fully understand the show.
We sat in the second row of balcony right side. I saw and heard perfectly for $100 + fees. I was absolutely shocked how good the vision and sound was- probably better than rear orchestra or mezzanine. I always try to sit up close in the orchestra when available. But these seats at the front of the balcony were great. Unfortunately the foot room is not
1a. With One Look 1b. As If We Never Said Goodbye. Both from Sunset Boulevard. The first one because of its melody and powerful score, the second due to the drama of the moment.
2. Ring of Keys- Fun Home. This affected me more than "Telephone Wire"
Call it Deja Vu or Groundhog Day. Tonights performance unfortunately was my second time for interruption of the show ( the first being the opening night where the turntable did not work. A physician who was seated next to me attended to Mr. Karl and told me he thought it was a severe strain. X rays this evening or tomorrow will reveal what the actual problem is. I asked several of the ushers if tomorrows shows will go on and they did not have an answer. I sat in row K on far right orchestra s
Sat in row M far left side, but on aisle. These seats are nicely raised and avoid conflicts of taller folks in front of you. As the two of us had the aisle seats, we were less blocked out by the speaker as others who were seated more far left than us. It is far more important to sit as close as possible. Here I can truly say you get an amazing view of Close's expressions. I cant say that first row mezzanine are not great, but I always prefer to sit as clos
My wife and I went to see Sunset Blvd last night. I don't often go to the theater, but 2-4 times per year is my average. I have never seen Sunset Boulevard either in play or in movie version. And although I enjoy ALW plays I have to admit that, along with many of you, his songs and tunes can be very repetitive. I am not writing this to inform you that this was the greatest play of all time- you know it is not. The set, as you already know is stripped down, the orchestra substituting

I called the box office, giving them my new exchanged seats M1,3 that several posts have suggested are partially obstructed. The nice box office person told me they were not "too bad". When I pressed him weather I would miss much of the action he replied that most takes place center stage. Not much that I could do other than move back a few rows and be on the aisle for a better prospective. They are pretty well sold on friday feb 17 so if I switched I would have to go way back in th
From the views you sent you are looking at audience from the stage and not visa-versa. Being on the far left aisle at row M seats 1,3, are you partially blocked from seeing the staircase and other scenes by the large speakers or the staircase itself?
I have read the concerns about seating in the far orchestra left. I originally had seats on far left orchestra seats 3 and 5 row J. Called ticketmaster and they advised me there were few seats available for my priced ticket for the February 17th performance. After much deliberation, they allowed me to move my seats 4 rows back to far left isle 1,3 row M. Will my exchange of the tickets to row M on the isle give me a better view and prevent block out by the speakers and staircase as

I stand corrected. Thank you. My daughter read the screen play which was in Spanish while she lived in Madrid this past year. We all liked the show. I've snoozed many a time on Broadway, but not on this one.
