Profile for Wick3

Wow I didn't realize it's $29 cocktails but at least the schnapps shot is free.

I know in other theaters a double size of red/white wine cost almost $40. 

If the bartenders get to keep all their tips, they'll be making $$$. I have a feeling they share those tips with all the beverage staff though.

• No matinees
• performances at 5pm and 8:30pm on Thursdays & Saturdays
• dark Sundays
• 7:30pm all other nights

Wonder how those 5pm Thursdays will do in the summertime... Really only works for tourists/vacationers, people who don't work,and people who work irregular schedules, which aren't usuallythe demographics for a new play.

It will allow some people to do a 3-show day (2pm, 5pm, 8pm), but those avid theatergoers don't fill the house.

"

American Utopia also had a 2 show Saturday that was not the norm. I think it was 5 & 9? or 5:30 & 9:30?"

Yup it was 5pm and 9pm on Saturdays back in 2022 at the St James Theater. From what I remember it was a 6 show week from Wed-Sun with 2 shows on Saturdays.

As for Oh Mary, it is interesting why they're opting not to have matinees as it excludes a certain market. At Lucille Lortel, they had 2 performances on Sundays set at 2pm and 5:30pm and obviously it worked well but at the same time, that theater is 1/3 the size of the Lyceum.

 

The pineapple room is pretty much where the mezzanine bar was located when I saw Funny Girl in the same theater last year. They changed the color of the lights and decor to make it look like a pineapple room.

 

Did they not have a dress rehearsal? 

I think the IP is strong for Great Gatsby in NYC area. I had to read the book back in high school and I presume majority of Americans did so as well. Folks are somewhat familiar with the story and that helps in selling tickets. 

As for between the two, Merrily is my answer too.

Transparency.

Though some shows like How to Dance in Ohio, Harmony, Heart of Rock Roll, etc didn’t get any Tony nominations, we can at least see if there were Tony voters who gave them some love. 
 

I watched the show this evening and the balcony was definitely open and people sat there. It wasn't full but it's interesting how the theater stopped selling Balcony seats. 

What is the reasoning for not having it at Radio City Music Hall this year? Is Radio City Music Hall not available? Too expensive?

I agree. $14m is a lot of money and this is not including the weekly nugget/running costs. 

I think a good number of people who have Netflix here in USA is familiar with the story from watching the movie starring Colin Firth and Matthew MacFadyen on Netflix back in 2021.

As far as accents go, the play Ferryman had strong accents and still recouped on Broadway.

Hopefully it will be able to find enough investors to bring it to Broadway. 

or maybe entire balcony is reserved for digital rush lottery winners?

Did something happen at Wicked? Just baffled by the $340k drop compared to the week before whereas Lion King remained the same. In recent weeks it's been Lion King & Wicked in the top 2 spots.

 

If they don’t do a two week notice, I think they’re still obligated to pay the actors for 2 weeks?

It’s already recorded - just awaiting a release date. Corey Cott mentioned at the SD on opening night that they had a listening party for it a few days prior"

Thrilled to hear this! I’m hoping they’ll release it soon as it helps with marketing. 

I hope they did something with the balcony since it seems faaaaaar when sitting up there.

I’m just surprised he hasn’t released the full album yet. In my experience I’d listen to the album first and if I like it, then buy a ticket to the concert.

Hopefully they’ll do a cast album! 

Had standing room at ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE during previews and after they closed the doors, an usher told us to follow her and she led us to empty seats! That show has a strict no late seating policy.
