Re: Todrick Hall's MIDNIGHT (Off-Broadway)

Kad said: "That pricing structure would make sense in a big Broadway-sized house, but this is a 14-row, 300ish-seat off-Broadway space. They're all good viewing. (and $399 for this just seems absurd)"This is what was gonna say. You're basically gonna have the same view anywhere so why would you spend over $200 on any seat in such a tiny space?

I’ve heard very mixed things about it. But yes I do challenge this idea that it’s not successful. From extension to ticket sales, a lot of you are trying to undercut it, when such analysis is not applied to his contemporaries. Hate the man, fine. But his show has shaken up a lot of theater convo and that’s a fact."I am more than wi...

For the sake of haters like you I hope it does become a runaway hit, so you can stfu."I can count exactly one pull quote in that review for them, but it doesn't matter anyway because, again, they have no PR company to get that pull quote to the people. No money to pay Instagram to run ads. No money to film b roll. Maybe you should recommend i...

Thank you for admitting your hatred around this show is not about the work itself, but about him. At least we got to one truth here."Why yes, are you... shocked that the content of someone's character has people not wanting to root for you? And the content of your show... makes people not want to root for its success? The success of this show that has been misrepresented the...

Like you wanna try and put your work on the biggest theatrical stage in the world and not expect to get your **** rocked with your work history? Pleaseeee. He has never taken one thing anybody has ever said to him to heart. He is too narcissistic to do so.

Ensemble1698878795 said: "I'm just curious why all of you are so passionate about disproving that this show could possibly be a thing - even if not to you. Sure the ticket holds may be a ploy for ticket surging, but it'snot NOT selling at all, like some new Broadway musicals are. Also how old are you Kad? What kind of theater do you like? That dictates your algorithm. Theresa huge disconnect between BWW, Tumblr, Tik Tok and IG. Shows that's have been adored or popular elsewhere are shat on on...

All of these performances were "sold out" 2 days ago... and none of the available tickets are going for "$499" as reported. Most are very much face value.https://imgur.com/a/mdM1xsO

Pop culture podcasts are talking about this show. Just bc most of you hate him and anything he touches, doesn’t mean he’s not in the zeitgeist. WhatsApp really just showed your age, babe. That’s not where he’s trending. You just proved my point."How about he start trending to the box office because the seat avai...

Ensemble1698878795 said: "Agreed. But if it wasn't selling at all it couldn't extend. They wouldn't have any money."Again, if they're blocking off half the seats of every performance, that is not selling out.

Ensemble1698878795 said: "Have you gone through every show post extension? Are you speaking from facts or hope? Are you CoffeeBreak because it’s giving obsession."I think its a pretty easy sampling. Not the first week of extension. Not Christmas/New Year's which is the busiest time of the year. Not weekends (the busiest days of the week). Not a great showing for a show that is currently "sold out".

Was nominated for 12 Tonys (won zero). I’m not saying I even agree with the show or what I’ve heard about it. But hype doesn’t lie and if tickets were that accessible people wouldn’t be begging for them online. Maybe separate your personal feelings about him from the reality of what his art is doing.

Ensemble1698878795 said: "Sure. They papered their houses so much they’ve earned an extension. He knew he didn’t have to spend money on marketing. Social media is his free marketing and it’s working."This is not an extension, Daryl Roth never had another tenant lined up until February. This was always the run. Daryl Roth collects all its money off the top, so Todrick can paper all he wants. Their money is secure and the same every single week. Todrick was trying to crowdsource someone to buil...

Most people I know who have seen it don’t love, but data doesn’tlie. Dislike Todrick all you want, his play is trending and selling."What's the data? Manipulated seating charts that you see them doing for every performance of the extension? Seats not being available does not mean sold out. I do not know how to explain to you any clearer when there's literally all...

So I’m gonna trust your advice on why they extended. 🙄 Feel free to lie, but the website literally says otherwise."Oh yeah, because half the seats being held back by production for every single performance through the "extended" closing definitely instills confidence in whether a performance has ever actually been "sold out". ...

I guess facts don’t matter anymore."It explicitly hasn't. The top ticket is $299. Them holding back a handful so they can release them at the last moment to a $500 price tag to scoop up stupid people is exactly what we are talking about. This is astroturfing. There is no reason to be buying $500 tickets when I can buy one for un...

It’s the buzziest most talked about show on social media right now with Hollywood and Broadway celebrities flocking to it.

For better or worse the hype earned this."What Hollywood and Br...

Glenn Close gives a 'Sunset Boulevard' movie update
