So a few changes from the first preview (spoilers ahead):
The guys in the ensemble was dressed as gentlemen at the club in the intro period of the first preview. Now, they are dressed in leather in a more provocative style. The older man in front of me said that a male and female ensemble member should “Get a Room.&rd

This was my number one complaint after seeing it last night. Of all the changes they made, I had the most issue with this one.
I am glad that you agree. It is bothering more after

There wasn’t a lot. Just as if dancers were looking at their audience and trying to draw them in. Lots of eye contact, some touching, one guy’s hair got played with, minimal conversation, etc. A

The Duke doesn’t attack Satine in this number (due to plot change) so the entire impact is lost. The song doesn’t have a clear ending either, I was sure it was going to have a massive finish
EllieRose2 said: "Metal detectors? That's insanely annoying and will slow the entire process down. They should tell people to come at least 45 minutes early or always expect to start the show late. It's very odd that Boston would have more security than Midtown NYC."
Harry Potter has metal detectors as well. I think it will be the new norm. After the Boston Marathon, I am nit surprised. I’d rather be annoyed and safe.
I just got back to hotel. I will try to give a brief synopsis. First of all, their was no one telling people what to do outside of the theater so lines formed on both sides of the door.

Right after that, a staff member went outside and told people they could come in, but they never opened the doors so people had to hand it off to the next person. The theater is stunning but the lobby is
It seems that we are all having issues with others using their phones. I was at the first preview of Iceman, and the woman a row in front of me texted through the entire show. I told the usher during the first intermission, and she said she would keep her eyes open for it. Nothing happened. My question is this...where are the ushers?
