Advice for canceling trip Aug 10
2022, 01:03:06 PM
I just had to do this last month, caught COVID 2 days before embarking on 4 shows in 3 days in 2 cities. I was able to change all of them for little to no charge. I think it's easier if you have a date in mind to reschedule to, but even if you need to straight cancel, I think most theaters are being more lenient on allowing it to happen. The issue I encountered was getting someone on the phone, that was the most difficult. 2 shows I was able to talk to someone, 2 I had to deal with Ticket

What Shows Were Great Surprises? Jul 15

Ditto to Come From Away.
Ain't Too Proud was a surprise for me. Not my genre of music or timeframe of life, was Mom's choice of show, but I had so much fun!

Thanks in advance for any assistance."
I haven't seen anything yet, and have been curious myself.
If it's any consolation, I saw Ain't Too Pro

Second time, 10pm show, this past sat night...2nd row - dead center -- a couple from the cast I saw the first time and others -- not nearly as good .. disappointing because I brought my teen who wants to be a hip hop music producer so I thought he'd really love it .. but so much stumbling for words

Ain’t Too Proud or Tina? Nov 19
2019, 11:14:20 AM
I haven't seen Tina, but I saw Ain't Too Proud this past summer. Music genre is before my time, was my mom's show choice, but man did we have fun! Crowd was very into it, and the cast was extremely talented. I had a great time for only knowing a couple of the songs. I'd suggest that one :)

WICKED tour performances cancelled in New Orleans following collapse of building next door Oct 20

Glad the bigger of the 2 didnt end up in the Saenger, but I did hear some windows broke. That other crane though, sucks it's hanging over the side like that!
New map shows theater is still in the evac zone. https://twitter.com/CWatkinsWDSU/status/1186071762531995648?s=19

I think it could absolutely be moved to Mahalia. But they are imploding the leaning cranes tomorrow, so I think DEH is going to be fine at the Saenger."
Cool cool, thanks! I'm really looking forward to seeing it, so wasn't sure how extensive it was. I know they already moved Baby Shark or Peppa Pig or something over there.

I'm with ya! I saw it over the summer, and when I came back down here from vacation and told my friends about it they wished they were there. I immediately told them when the news broke, and we're already making plans to go :)

VotePeron said: "I don’t know specifics, but for example, Warner Bros forced the Lyric to stop selling their off-brand version of Butterbeer over the summer because it wasn’t the official one, but they also refused to allow them to sell the butterbeer from Universal."
Wow, did they really? WB make so much already off this brand, them going after the Lyric for this, and towns, baseball teams, etc for hosting Harry Potter events (Read about that last year)

Moulin Rouge seating Jul 8
2019, 01:09:43 PM
I saw the show this past weekend, sat in Mezz, row S, seats 18 & 20. You can see the main stage fine, but right side (elephant side) the trunk blocks the side where some actors will be at some point. Also, you can see the runway out past the can can seats, but the very front part you can't see at all. If an actor stands there you can see them, but from the waist up, and if they walk toward the elephant, you can't see them until they hit the stairs on the side. My tix said nothing
