Miles2Go2 said: "I’m just saying it’s not the most challenging role and I think he’s perfect for it. But if you’ve seen him struggle to have onstage chemistry, I can see your concern. Probably an easy decision for you to skip this one then. I have only seen him on stage once (American Son) where he didn’t have a need for onstage romantic chemistry. I did see Newsies on Netflix and thought his chemistry was fine there."

True! (Not the mos

Right, he can certainly sing. But the role also requires some semblance of chemistry between the two leads - we're to believe that she's drawn to him, and he's drawn to her. Jeremy Jordan is fantastic, and I'm a big fan, but I've yet to see him sell a romantic attraction to another character for longer than a couple minutes.

(And OH, "it's called acting?" Why didn't I think of that? Sigh. Thought this was the place to discuss how some people are be

GreeneStreet said: "The problem Waitress is going to face, (and who knows mabye it will be this run) is that Sara is not going to be able to sell the show anymore. Everyone who has wanted to see her, has at this point."

I haven't! despite being local. Saw Waitress with Katharine McPhee; will probably go back to see Bareilles. (Wasn't a huge fan of hers last time she was here, but I loved seeing her at the JCS dress rehearsal and have since read her book - she

I'm seeing prices for the Times Square location within the app as well - that's a nice addition, thanks for the heads up.

Just chiming in to mention that the Lincoln Center location is inside, which is great when the weather's nasty. Free wifi too. The LC location starts selling evening performance tickets at noon, which is 2-3 hours earlier than the Times Square location (though I believe the South Street Seaport booth begins at 11a). 

And not so much

We got two rush seats in the orchestra - 2 or 3 rows from the stage, the "partial view" seats all the way to the left. The ticket to our immediate right didn't sell - or the person didn't show - so we slid over a seat. Missed a moment or two at the counter but nothing major... thought they were fabulous seats, especially for rush price. People in front of/behind us in the rush line were right in front of/behind us.

(Granted, this was in July, so they might b

IMHO, I think most likely is someone who's already written a memoir. It's clear that Bruce has done years of reflecting on his life (in therapy and out). Having that source material with which to craft a show like this is huge. I haven't seen it (no lottery win yet/would rather pay $200 to see him rock out on tour somewhere). But, I have seen some clips, and everything I've seen echoes what he already put in his book. (It is 500+ pages after all...) As some others have mention

TheSassySam said: "I have Monday night free and I am looking to go see Chicago. What would be the best method to get the most bang for my buck when it comes to seeing the show? Are the rush seats good? Is the show ever at TKTS?"

I tried a couple times this summer and wasn't able to get rush tickets for Chicago, but I did get a couple SRO tickets! $27 each and a great view. They might not offer it depending how close the show is to sold out, but IMO it's worth

vanbrig said: "In all seriousness, it looks like the places that have implemented this process have been able to do it smoothly, which is good. I’ve yet to hear about it being used in a theatre like many on Broadway (large amounts of people all trying to get in/out through one entrance/exit with basically no lobby), but hopefully if it's implemented in one of those then the process is smooth there as well."

They were used at the Brooklyn Armory for the Jesu

BroadwayConcierge said: "I didn't know I needed Sutton Foster inThe Sound of Musicuntil I heard her sing that minute-long snippet of "Lonely Goatherd." But now I need it, please and thank you."

She even said something along the lines of, "I don't think Liza can sing" during the Younger live interview prior to the episode - so that clip's likely her downplaying her crazy talent. 

Seconding kady.ivy: I'd be there

I did SRO for the Saturday evening performance on July 7. They actually didn't start selling standing until around 6:15p - the show hadn't yet gotten close enough to selling out when the box office opened at 10a. (As I mentioned elsewhere - I think on the TBITB rush thread - they said to come back at 4:30, then at 5, etc., until we formed a mini line around 6p. Keep in mind the week of the 4th is typically a light theater week, so our experience might not reflect other Saturdays.

Last I saw, Hamilton does their SRO rush maybe an hour out from showtime, so you could easily wait for matinee rush tickets at 8a, go to a matinee, grab lunch, then wait in the Hamilton line and hope to get lucky.

In terms of who'll have rush tickets after the box office opens, I'd check out the message boards closer to your visit to see what people have been reporting lately - personally think we're too far out to know just yet. Good luck! Two rush shows in
