This is really interesting. I'd love to see revival stagings and performances added next to the original count just for kicks.

They looked a bit uncomfortable to sit in for the whole show, but the visibility was probably great for all the scene locations. The only ones who didn't have to twist around to see anything. And they get cast members walking past quite frequently, which can be fun.

I'm sad to hear the extension didn't sell well. I wish it could just take up residency at New World Stages and live there for a good long while. Like Titanique and Little Shop, I'd love for this to just be available to see whenever I need a dose of hilarious insanity.

I was very excited to see this tonight. Sadly, it didn't resonate. I liked the idea of just about everything that was tried but ultimately didn't see much substance in it. The set is made to feel like you're in a bar with a small stage. But then there's an apartment set built atop the bar area. The people seated "in the bar" on stage were often just helplessly there, and sometimes felt in the way. A three-top table is used as a retail checkout counter in one

I think that album could tell one hell of a story..."

Saw it last night. Runtime was about 2:40. Really powerful performances here from the whole cast. Sarah Paulson and Corey Stoll absolutely deserve nominations. I'd love to see Natalie Gold snag a nom too as she brings some FIRE. And I expect Alyssa Emily Marvin to be a strong leading actress in a few years as well.
As a whole, the show is richly layered and I imagine will land differently depending on one's perspective, age, and background. It could have easily become a heavy-h

Not sure what you find suspect about it. As for notable people who left, I don't want to list names. But, as it was a Monday evening performance there were a lot of recognizable people currently on Broadway, and the conversations around me were largely between people in shows now or in the industry. One notable exchange between someone leaving at intermission while his companion stayed:
"Come back once they've worked it all out."
"No, no I don't think

There is singing aplenty and it’s surprisingly VERY funny.

This was, sadly but unquestionably, the worst thing I've ever seen on Broadway. It is dull, long, pointless, and celebratory of toxic relationships. It's over-choreographed in the transitions with no added value and yet the actual dance numbers are basic and underwhelming. A LOT of people were on their phones during the show, not just checking the time, but actively texting or just scrolling. The 11-year-old kid in front of me was so bored he crawled under his seat for a nap. People g

With action happening in the aisles, is the mezz to be avoided to see it all? Or is nothing really lost from being up there?

I found this site for Broadway discount codes. It is a nice collection of codes but needs more contributions to be comprehensive. Perhaps we could help update it and make it more useful.
