Balcony experience at Merrily? May 6
2024, 11:09:19 AM
My seat was Balcony L, row C, seat 1. I was very pleased with it, especially given the prices of other seats. I couldn't see all of the band from what I remember but everything else was good. This seat was on the aisle too (but note that the stairs are steep). I'm sitting there again when I go back to see it this summer

I had row J in the mezz, on the left side, and I thought it was a great seat to see everything on stage (just narrow, but my seat mates and I worked it out). Granted, the aisle was in front of

The doors definitely didn't open at 1 like the email said. I was there right before 1:30 and the line was long then too - past the Hayes Theatre (we were all confused which line was for which show). But it moved pretty well a little after 1:30
The usher near me just told someone there was a longer line for picking up tickets than usual, since it&#

I had one for Hello Dolly (with Bernadette Peters). My seat was pretty far to the left in the orchestra, and I couldn't see part of that side of the stage - for instance, during the dinner scene I could see Dolly's table but not the one with the younger characters. But that wasn't TDF's fault necessarily - I looked later and the production had that seat listed for a pret

ACL2006 said: "interesting to note that they'll only be doing 7 shows per week. Their typical schedule is Mon-Sat evenings and only a Saturday matinee."
That is interesting, I guess it's to give the dancers more time to recover compared to an 8 week show?
They do have some random Weds matinee too (April 24, May 1, Jul 3, Aug 7). I'll be going to the first show. The comments on here have me intrigued

I'd posted this in the other Sweeney Todd thread, but I thought he did a great job as Toby! I had no idea it was his first show when I saw it this afternoon (didn't know until I was on this site this evening)

This afternoon I had Orchestra right, row L seat 18 for Sweeney Todd. On the far aisle, but no complaints at all as I was able to see everything
Edit to add - this was the first time I've ever been asked to show my ID when picking up tickets

I agree, I thought he did a great job as Toby! I had no idea it was his first performance this afternoon until I saw it here. But it explains all the photographers who rushed down the aisle during the curtain call. I thought there might be a speech or something to explain why they were there since I hadn't seen that at a show before

I feel like Mme. Thenardier always gets a laugh with her line in "Master of the House", where she notes her husband "thinks he's quite a lover, but there's not much there..."
I grew up listening to the 10th anniversary concert of Les Mis so I'm especially partial to her delivery of the line in that version

Recently, Purlie Victorious had different redemption options and they specified the section seats were located (e.g., orch, mezz). At least if you speak with an agent, you get info directly from the source and make informed decisions.

Does anyone know if there's a difference in the seats that are just points redeemed versus points + cash?
Also, is there a difference in seats if there's two prices listed? For example, "The Cottage" has seats listed for 500 points+$60 and 500 points+$66, then 5,500 points and 6,000 points. Am I right to assume the higher cost/point seats are a bit better?
Sorry if this is an obvious question. I haven't gotten an Audien Reward ticket before, t

Taffy's picture does a good job of showing the stage, and I agree. I was in Orch Right, row O, seat 6 when I saw it. Not the farthest seats but pretty far to the side. I had no issues and the people to the right side didn't say they had any

Zorro the Musical I saw it in London on the West End and loved it (Lesli Margherita stole the show). It closed before I had a chance to see it again.
I kept hoping that it would transfer to Broadway, or do the tour their website said was coming up in the future. But nothing. I think a version played at a community theatre in Salt Lake, and in Paris. As more time passes I figure it's less and less likely it'll happen
