“Martin Scorsese no longer watches films in cinemas due to audience bad behaviour” - has your theatregoing been affected in the same way?
 Sep 8 2025, 10:19:51 PM

BorisTomashevsky said: "dadaguza said: "This thread has prompted me to ask - was Hamilton in theaters really supposed to be a sing-along?

Because a large corner of TikTok seems to think so, and some are actually creating an uproar if they're told not to sing during the movie, others griping that their theater was "too quiet" and they walked out.

I saw an audience-filmed clip from the United Palace screening which had lyrics on t

Does the box office check IDs

Crusty Bagel said: "I know on TDF it says the box office will ask to see an ID. Also lottery wins, and other ticketing schemes. Do they actually check though? The only place that actually asks for it is city center for the cheap tickets for under 40 year olds."

They ask for ID to see if it’s the same name. They don’t actually check ages.


Billy Porter: "Blacks Have Replaced The Jews"
 Jul 21 2025, 06:45:49 PM

How have "Black replaced the Jews" when none of the Black characters in this production are Jewish? Herr Schultz is Jewish and he's white. Sally isn't Jewish. Cliff isn't Jewish. The emcee isn't Jewish.

Saw this tonight and had a great time! Betsy Wolfe is incredible and is the reason to see this show. I thought the music was catchy, and the show was overall a fun time. I don’t know if it was a theater school group or something but there was a huge group of young people there tonight and they all loved it! There was a lot of cheers and positive audience responses. I’m not really that familiar with Betsy Wolfe, does she have a large youth following? Actu


operIncident at Operation Mincemeat
 Jul 2 2025, 04:15:18 PM

Several people have commented on Reddit that they were also at this same performance and the alleged “incident” didn’t happen. People sitting in the mezz and orchestra all did not hear it. There were also comments that the person who wrote this story is questionable.

So unless there is a confirmation from a second party, I’m gonna go with bull**** for clicks.

There’s a chance that at least one of the seven people in the audience that night poston these boards.

Ha! Yes I was at the final show on Sunday. They moved us all down to front mezz so that was nice.

As others have said, the show was very funny and quite moving! I admit I had tears at several points.

Wait! You mean to say that a Kenny D. promo event is NOT running smoothly and as advertised?? Say it ain't so!!

Has anyone actually beenable to purchase a $19.9

I’m seeing it Sunday. I don’t really know anything about it or the performer, but it’s a $28 Access City Center ticket. I’ll see almost anything there for $28.


City Centers 24-25: Ragtime, Urinetown, LaChiusa's Wild Party, Love Life

Just saw this tonight and oof it was terrible. There’s no other way to put it. The jokes were just so flat and lifeless. The story was just so stupid and boring. I was almost nodding off several times during Act 1, which felt like it lasted forever. The balcony was so empty! Basically only the Access 28 tickets were sold on the far sides and some in the back, most of rows B, C and D were almost completely empty. I moved over to a great center seat with no one in front all the way down.


Hugh Jackman & Ella Beatty to lead off-Broadway SEXUAL MISCONDUCT OF THE MIDDLE CLASSES in rep with Liev Schrieber-led CREDITORS

I was at the same performance last night. The woman whose phone went off was sitting directly in front of me. I felt bad for the coughing man though. I have had that happen to me during shows and that tickle spasm that won’t go away is terrible. Water/cough drops don’t help. There’s not really anything you can do about that.
Smash changed ending SINCE OPENING-SPOILER
 May 5 2025, 06:25:49 PM
RaisedOnMusicals said: "Direct quote from material on the internet:



The Broadway adaptation of Smash underwent a significant transformation in its ending between its opening night on April 10, 2025, and the present. Initially, the musical concluded with a dark and dramatic twist: Ivy Lynn, the central character, dies onstage during a high-energy number, symbolically mirroring Marilyn Monroe’s tragic fate. This ending was supported by producer Steven Sp

Every show gets a standing ovation at the end, it means nothing now.

Two people in the front row near me got up and walked out of the show during the second or third song!! That was a bold choice to do that from the front row. I guess they knew they wouldn’t be able to stand it.

Ha! That is leagues better than what is at LCT. Seriously he just looked like he was taking a relaxing nap most of the show.

I also just got back from the show tonight and I really did not enjoy that. Jeremy Jordan was in great voice and he’s really giving an incredible performance but the show as a whole is a huge misfire. The Beaumont is a giant barn, and the completely bare stage made it seem even larger. There was absolutely nothing claustrophobic or cave-like at all. I was in the front row right next to where Jeremy was the whole show and it just looked like he was laying on a nice lounge chair. They are a

I sat in the second row for the dress rehearsal and the view there was great! The tables don’t block anything.

The show started around 1:15 (1pm listed start time) and was over about 3:50. The intermission was a bit long so I expect that to be faster during the run.

Get out!
I splurged on a table seat. Just checked-I’m at table 11. 😳

Can’t wait.

How was the show?

Oh you are in for quite the treat! That’s probably the best seat in the house.

I only ask because I know "Coffee is for closers" was on the web site and some merch, which is an odd choice if that scene isn't integrated. Especially given it's probably the most famous thing Mamet ever wrote."


I don’t think anyone here answered this yet, but no, nothing from the Alec Baldwin speech has been added. I did think

I was 2nd row on the side section, the tables are excellent, you really are in the show. Expect to be literally inches away from the actors.
