I personally am not going, but I noticed they are changing the playbill design for the move!

Posted: 11/2/13 at 8:03pmThe new logo is okay although the arms look a bit odd, I guess this design will be rolled out to international productions in the coming months,

Posted: 11/2/13 at 8:08pmI like it--it was time for a change and this was the perfect time to do it. However, i think it would look better with the lettering on the far left and the logo on the right.

Posted: 11/2/13 at 8:10pmI think the braided headband is a nice, modern touch.

Posted: 11/2/13 at 8:17pmThe Broadhurst looks decent with the Mamma Mia signage although i think the billboard on top of the theatre would have better with just the logo of Sophie rather than the logo and Mamma Mia lettering.

Posted: 11/2/13 at 8:31pmIs it just me or does she sort if look like Miley Cyrus now?
#11Mamma Mia! at the Broadhurst
Posted: 11/2/13 at 8:35pm^Maybe if her tongue was hanging out of her mouth.

Posted: 11/2/13 at 9:17pmAren't most Sophies blonde? Seemes an odd choice to always have her played blonde if the logo looks like a 40 year old Julia Roberts?

Here's a curtain pic from Instagram. Looks like the false proscenium is significantly downsized and there's now a weird gobo on the curtain.

Posted: 11/2/13 at 9:48pmI just feel bad for all the people sitting in the audience in that picture because they're all about to see MAMMA MIA.

Posted: 11/3/13 at 2:15pmThe 3 theaters on the northern side of W. 44th. St. all have imports from London. If the 2 remaining theaters on the street were empty, what transfers would take them?
#21Mamma Mia! at the Broadhurst
Posted: 11/3/13 at 2:27pmI agree that the top billboard should be just Sophie, not the title. Anyone go to it yet?

Posted: 11/3/13 at 9:51pmThat theater needs a pressure-wash. It looks so drab compared to the marquee.
#24Mamma Mia! at the Broadhurst
Posted: 11/4/13 at 12:09amI liked how when Grease was at the Eugene O'Neil they painted the whole facade... I would love to see them paint the theatre blue... Make it seem like the its the show's home both inside and out.
