Idina Menzel will lead Harmon's SKINTIGHT Off-Broadway  Mar 7 2018, 01:55:21 PM

Miles2Go2 said: "This is officially on my radar now. Thanks DramaTeach for bumping this. Anyone know if there is anywhere we can see or hear some of the songs, snippets or promo ads? I love Idina."

Miles, it's a straight play by Josh Harmon, probably no songs!

 

(But Josh is one of my favorite playwrights these days, his plays are riotously funny and I'm sure Idina will be great in this!)



THREE TALL WOMEN (2018) Previews  Feb 25 2018, 02:15:37 PM

I'm going next Saturday, can't wait! I don't know much about it, I'm excited to learn.



Show Closing/Ticket Refund Question  Feb 18 2018, 09:18:38 PM
If you buy directly from Telecharge or Ticketmaster, they will automatically refund all tickets sold for performances after the closing.

If you buy from a third party (eBay, stubhub, personal transaction with a friend, etc), only the original buyer would get refunded and you’d have to go through the rigamaroll of getting a refund from the source you bought from.

If you’re concerned about this, absolutely buy directly from Telecharge or Ticketmaster and they will have you cove

No bad seat in the house! It’s all stadium seating, extremely intimate space. Last row is maybe 20 feet from the stage?

Passing Strange in Philly  Jan 19 2018, 01:57:33 PM
Hey everyone! A user PM’d me asking about the volume level and I wanted to post what I wrote!

The show was pretty loud at times (for effect, ugh), my mom and I were both bothered by it. It’s such a tiny space (maybe 200 seats?) so you’re right up in it.

Conversely, I did see a lot of people visibly wince during the loud moments, so i’m guessing the creative team are aware of it and will probably dial it down a little. It was only the first week of previews, so they’re sure to


Passing Strange in Philly  Jan 17 2018, 11:35:31 PM

What a beautiful show. I didn't get to see it in New York, but I've watched Spike Lee's film several times and listened to the score on repeat for almost a decade.

This production is small, but mighty. Scott Pask's set is all black with projections and lighting, plus live GoPros projecting on the wall with a few small TVs serving as set pieces here and there.

Jamar Williams and Kris Coleman are giving breakout star performances. 

Watching it with my m


Question about Bernadette Peters interview  Jan 14 2018, 10:50:37 PM

I feel like people have forgotten about it a bit because it was (comparatively) low-key, and Dolly was also Midler's first time in a Broadway *musical* since Fiddler. I think people mean to say "first time in a Broadway musical since Fiddler," but just kind of say "first time on Broadway since Fiddler."

 

I'm usually the first to nitpick about things like this, but I can see where people can get a little confused in the wording.

I'm going this weekend, I'll report back!



SPONGEBOB Rush and Lottery  Dec 9 2017, 11:48:12 PM

The first week of previews, my roommate and I rushed together to get 3 tickets to the Saturday evening show and the box office employee sold us front row center of the balcony (yay!) until we got home and realized they sold us matinee tickets (noooo!), so we contacted them and they bumped us up to Orchestra P 6,8, & 10 for the evening show.

 

Great seats and an even better show, but it's such a big theatre and such an expansive design that there probably isn't a


Can you transfer/sell LincTix to other members?  Nov 30 2017, 10:32:12 AM
I have no idea about selling them (I’m guessing it’s a no-go), but to transfer them, you just have to go to the box office at LCT with your LincTix number, the second person’s LincTix number, and the name on their ID for when they pick up.

The Band's Visit Rush Policy Announced  Oct 30 2017, 05:18:00 PM

Last Wednesday, I was the first person there at 6:30 am and three people showed up just after 7. There were about 10 people by 8 am and maybe 30 people by the time the box office opened at 10 am.

 

I was in row C, last 2 seats on the extreme left. We missed a little bit in the first scene in Dina's apartment all the way stage right, but when they went back to that location towards the end, the wall was pushed further out and we could see the scene better. We could

I think so. Casey Nicholas said something about “no automation, the actors move all the set pieces” in the recent Washington Post(?) article


ILLYRIA Previews  Oct 22 2017, 12:40:22 PM

Previews start tonight for Richard Nelson's ILLYRIA at the Public! Who's going? I'll be there later this week.



Philly academy of music seating  Sep 26 2017, 10:43:43 AM

I sat in the Orchestra (Parquet, I guess. But it’s Orchestra.) limited view the first time I saw this Les Mia tour in 2011 and it was mostly good, but there was one glaring pole that was a little annoying, but you just kind of learned to look around it. 

 

If if you can get them, the Academy used to sell the front few rows, extreme sides (somewhat obstructed view) for pretty cheap and it was great the second time the tour came through in 2013. Not sure if th


Broadway: “Hello, Dolly!” Without Bette Midler Crashes at Box Office, Falls Below $1 Mil for Week  Jul 9 2017, 06:41:01 AM

carnzee said: "The author is deliberately misleading, if not dishonest. He compares Donna's average ticket price (106.31)to the premium prices for Bette's shows(499-799).

Apples and oranges. If you compare Donna's average ticket price to Bette's most recent average ticket price (197) you get a decrease of about $90, which isn't too bad for Donna. 

He also says Bette is leaving by the end of the year, which isn't true.

Dear Evan Hansen/Music Box Seating  Dec 4 2016, 04:06:14 PM

I was rear mezz, far left last week and it was still an amazing view. I think mezz might be the way to go for this show. With so many visuals happening onstage at once, it's nice to have an overview to take it all in. 



Celebrities at shows?  Nov 13 2016, 09:47:18 PM

The last time we were at Hamilton, my mom and I were on line when Spielberg and his family were heading towards the back of the line. They were seated two rows behind us and I kept looking back to watch him watching the show. 



NATASHA, PIERRE & THE GREAT COMET OF 1812 Previews  Nov 6 2016, 11:55:26 PM

Random question, but I'm seeing it in a few weeks and sitting onstage in the banquettes, does everyone onstage get a pierogi/vodka or just people at tables? 

 

Because that pierogi/borscht in the tent was A+.
