While I’m not sure where “the Broadway pro-shot I’d like to watch is on a major streaming service I don’t want to subscribe to” ranks on the list of first-world problems, I am certain it’s on there.

I’m looking forward to gathering with friends, drinking some paint thinner, and having everyone shout, “the South of WHAT!?” in unison.

If Rudin really wants to prove he’s changed, he should livestream his reaction to this bungled sale.

There still seem to be issues with new pages on threads requiring a "bump" post to get them accessible and viewable. (example right now is the Lost Boys thread, with the 251st post and 11th page not accessible and only viewable when replying).

The price alone is obscene but the service fee on top of it is even worse, seeing as how ATG owns the ticketing platform and the venue.

Lion King sends out mailers and puts out regular advertising campaigns. As does Chicago. This is what established brands do.

Interesting that Wicked is the only production not to see at least a five-figure box office boost.

I would assume- or I guess, more accurately, hope- that what it means is that the tickets that are part of the $250 presale are the ones that will be more expensive on general sale. But the thing is, I don't think this is really a deal if one really only cares about seeing Small Mouth Sounds. These are functionally at least $400 tickets once you factor in the mandatory Downstate ticket purchase. If you're unwilling or unable to see Downstate, you're not getting a deal, really.

Kind of funny that a year ago he was making thinly-veiled jabs at Seaview in the NYTimes for leaning on celebrity casting.

I could see it being determined to be new.

schubox said: "This play has almost no dialogue right? Wonder if people who pay top dollar for these actors are gonna get pissed"From what I recall, the "everyone is silent!" thing is kind of a gimmick that the play undercuts at every opportunity with a lot of nonverbal communication like mouthed words and wild gesturing.

I have no business spending $400 this week (or $800 for two) but I have a scary feeling it's going to be impossible to get anything for that price when they go on sale for the general public."My exact thoughts. Especially since I’m certain Downstate will pop up on TDF. It will be a hard sell and Rudin knows this."Downstate is going to have a very hard time considering its subject matter and a cast that has very little na...

CoffeeBreak said: "Will this be a considered a revival ?"Yes, the play is over a decade old, toured, and has been available for licensing for years.

The wording on the press release suggests that presale tickets for Downstate are indeed starting at $150: "At 12:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, September 10, tickets to this fall’s Downstate will go on sale, starting at $150 each, at DownstateOnBroadway.com. Audience members who purchase tickets to performances through November 22 of Downstate will immediately receive an exclusive, single-use presale code granting access to purchase select Orchestra and Front Mezzanin

The only credited producer on the site is a woman named Caryn Sterling, who doesn't seem to have other any other credits as a producer. Her central claim on her LinkedIn is being "the architect and driving force behind JoJo Siwa’s billion-dollar global brand"

But... here goes anyways...Not too many offices have landline telephones anymore, so nowadays it's much harder to beat up your PA with just a little iphone" And yet you powered through to deliver... nothing worthwhile.

Formal press release finally out, the cast will include Cassie Beck, K Todd Freeman, Francis Guinan, Adrian Martinez, Al'Jaleel McGhee, Thomas Sadoski, Ivy Wolk, and Liza Colon-Zayas.

The Genie may not be on stage a ton but the character carries "Friend Like Me," which is expanded to an almost 10-minute long production number that rests entirely on their shoulders and is the show's centerpiece, not to mention a deliberate showcase of the performer's abilities.

Got the IG ads for both this and Small Mouth Sounds. ...very odd approach Rudin is taking with these two productions.

I saw the first preview- Holding the Man is still in.If you're in the front row, it is pretty hard to escape his notice, but for active participation he's very good at getting enthusiastic consent (not that there was any shortage of enthusiastic volunteers in the audience, even for the most outrageous asks). However, he is all over the house and I would wager you are pretty likely to at the very least have him near you, step over you, or come into contact with you even if you never choose to ...
