Until anyone knows what this show is, that isn't surprising.

Posted: 5/26/14 at 4:36pmGoing through TDF is probably the only way I will go see this. Though I think I am going to wait until 6/3 when I get to see some of our faithful first preview goers thoughts before I drop the money on what could possibly be those awful balcony seats. I don't think there is any middle ground on this one. It is either going to start previews needing a lot of work that can't be turned around in less than three weeks or it will be pretty solid from the start. It's an awfully short preview period for a brand new musical in a huge theater.

Does anyone know the running time, Or have an idea of the running time. I just checked the website and it says that the show starts promptly at start time and there is no late seating.

Posted: 5/26/14 at 5:07pmI am keeping an opened mind on this one until I see it. Some of the sound clips I have heard don't sound bad. Being in my 60's, and have little to no clue who Tupac is or was. I am not their target audience, but I do enjoy a good upbeat score. I love Hedwig, and I am far from their target audience.

"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

"Does anyone know the running time, Or have an idea of the running time."
If their website doesn't say, then not too optimistic anyone on here will know. It has to run once first, I'd imagine.
