They did throw a (stuffed) Toto into Megan's hands for that last button. I loved that. smiley


THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA Musical (Chicago Pre-Broadway) - News & Discussion Thread
 Aug 8 2022, 02:48:34 PM

It seems like Chris Jones was overly kind to Paradise Square in order to keep out-of-town tryouts coming the Chicago... just so he could offer his "sage wisdom" in the form of a "review" on shows like this. I don't necessarily disagree with his points, but blatantly giving prescriptive orders isn't what most audiences want in a review. Once again, he's coming off as someone who thinks he's the one true savior in all of theatre.

Sorry, he just drives


PARADISE SQUARE Chicago Pre-Broadway Tryout - Previews
 Nov 8 2021, 03:08:07 PM

I'm late to post (don't lurk around here often these days), but I saw the first preview. Overall, I would agree that it's "a mess," but hopefully not unsalvageable. Some of the songs have potential, including "Let it Burn" and, surprisingly to me, the duet between Nelly and Annie in Act 2. Maybe it was called "Someone to Love?" It was sweet and simple, but really effective. This might have been because it was one of the few numbers that actually allow


Which show after SPRING AWAKENING and RENT?

Are you in C? Or "OC?" OC is, indeed, because they fill in the orchestra pit with 3 extra rows. Subscribers aren't in those rows, so availability can be open. It is quite close, but many people love it. It's a large venue, where tiers 1 and 2 (mezz and balcony) are quite far back (overhang begins at orchestra row W), so I recommend sitting in orchestra if there are seats closer than row W. If row W or further back, go for Grand Tier. 2nd tier is... not my favo

I'm surprised this hasn't been done. I even tried a quick google search and found nothing. I wonder if it's not available to be optioned? 


What is the show

A Chorus Line gets my guess. great ensemble show, kind of serious, won Best Musical.

 

Or maybe Nine?

Thanks, neon. I may check that out. I'm definitely going to want to HEAR it more than see it. 38-piece orchestra!

I'm considering going, but not sure I can afford it. I couldn't find any discounts online - does anyone know of any?
