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.

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

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.
Show was a lot of fun! Really enjoyed it. I’m a big fan of

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

How were the banquette seating?"
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.

I really don’t know why the website continues to say the show is 105 minutes, and when I asked the usher tonight he said it was 100 mins. The show is two hours. Those 20 mins make a big difference if you have to be somewhere after.
(Loved the show, just had to rush getting out.)

I saw the open rehearsal they did last year and thank GOD they changed that ending! What they originally had was just so completely out of tone with the rest of the show. Unfortunately, what they changed it to now is just dull and doesn’t really make any narrative sense.
After seeing Boop! last night and now Smash tonight, Bob Martin should never write another book again. At least the songs and production of Boop! were more than enough to overcome a bizarre and poorly written book, here

No one mentioned Pudgy yet!?
I saw the show tonight and every time Pudgy was on stage I couldn’t stop watching him. Incredible puppetry/marionette work being done here.
That Act 2 opening number was outstanding. I literally gasped at what I was seeing, it was such perfect theatrical magic, some of the best use of costumes & lighting I’ve seen. I’d want to see it again just for that.
As others have said, yeah the book is bizarre and doesn’t really make sense, but

Does BC/EFA still do Easter Bonnet?

sorano916 said: "Jakeevan942 said: "The 6-week in-theater appeal Easter Bonnet fundraising season is still happening.
All that is not happening is the 2-day Easter Bonnet Competition variety show at the end of the fundraising cycle."
Last year, instead of the Easter Bonnet, they did Hats Off to You, which was a smaller variety show of sorts that was for certain levels of donors (a meal took place after the show). It took place at the Hard Rock Cafe and was hosted by the late Gavin Creel. I'm assuming they're do the same this year."
They’ll be doing a different event this year, not at the Hard Rock. I don’t know more than that just that it won’t be the same as in 2024. Unfortunately the Easter Bonnet show is not coming back.
