That's what I figured, thanks for the info!

So being an elder Broadway theater goer, I made a list of how many Tony Awards are represented by those folks that have been on at least one episode....I'm up to 26 Tony Awards. Has anybody else with time to spare done the math?"

This article is from season one prior to the premiere, so it omits season two newcomers like Laura Benanti, but it lists all the wins and nominations of the cast that we knew of at that point:

Here We Are is off-Broadway and, to my knowledge, does not participate in BC/EFA collections."

Correct me if I'm wrong, but shows like Little Shop and some others Off-Broadway have indeed collected in the past, so I thought I would ask, just in case.

Jen Silverman's We Play Ourselves has many great theatre-set scenes. The main character is a playwright, and though much of the book does not focus on Broadway, it's a fun and fast read.

Here We Are isn't selling any signed window cards, playbills, etc., is it? That's one I would love to add to my collection.

True, I didn't remember the railing from when I sat in the center section. Updated my post to avoid confusion. Thanks!

 

Selling two tickets to this Wednesday matinee on November 15 at 1:00pm. The seats are on the left side, Row GG, Seats 101 and 102. Looking to recoup what I paid: $129 + $5 per ticket, so selling the two for $268. DM me if interested, thanks!

Jonathan Cohen said: "For me, casting Angela Lansbury, who was perfect as Mrs. Lovett, at least in retrospect, seems like a bigger example of casting against type. The nice old lady from Murder She Wrote is turning her customers into cannibals?"

Sweeney Todd preceded Murder, She Wrote by ~4-5 years.

Do you remember if the signed Sweeneyposter was the white window card with the title treatment or the newer one with Josh and Annaleigh on it? Thanks!

It is the white window card. It does not have Josh and Annaleigh on it."

Thank you!

Thanks! They do have ample time before the show has to be frozen, so maybe they'll consider something like this.

A photo from the sitzprobe reveals that the show has an overture.

It sounds to me like the roar of the furnace fire below the pie shop, which I know isn't present in the Prelude but that's what it struck me as immediately.

Fair point, especially for the folks who paid the highest membership fees to get those tickets on the first day and had a frustrating experience. I'm more commenting on the total lack of faith that The Shed could bring a project like this to fruition.
