'CATS: The Jellicle Ball' at PAC reviews Aug 27
2024, 06:45:10 PM
To me this production as currently designed and directed would feel a bit claustrophobic in CITS. I'm aware of the ceiling everytime I'm in that theater and this production needs some room to breathe. The stage space in the thrust configuration also seems too narrow.
I'd rather they go for a theater like the Imperial or Winter Garden and have on stage seating and build the runway out into the front of the orchestra if needed (which I believe was mentioned earlier in thi

I decided that I was going to get second balcony seats for this, since it doesn'tseem like a show that will suffer from cheaper seats. Going onto Telecharge, they are saying that a number of the second balcony seats are partial view due to a rail in front of the first row. Is that a real issue? Idon't re

Thanks. :)"
My lotto seats about two weeks ago were Orchestra Row D Seats 11 and 13. As the previous poster indicated these were partial view, but honestly I don't think we missed much. Just whenever someone was going in or out of the front door of the house.

Follies inspired skit on SNL May 20

Maybe it was a mix of both. They literally used the melody of Sondheim’s “Beautiful Girls.”"
I should've been a little more specific. A lot of the blocking was taken from the movie: the quasi conga line, the highlighting of individual boys, and the overhead shot at the end.

What’s going on at Second Stage? May 2

jkcohen626 said: "Fordham2015 said: "jkcohen626 said: "I don't think there's anything to worry about yet. Of the Broadway nonprofits, only Roundabout has announced their full season. Lincoln Center also hasn't announced anything and MTC hasn't announced their Winter show (which usually has similar dates to 2nd Stage's first show of the season)."
MTC's winter show is Eureka Day"
No, Eureka Day is Fall and Old Friends is Spring. For Broadway, MTC usually has a Fall show that runs from September-November, a Winter show that runs from December-February/March, and then a Spring Show that runs March/April-June (or I suppose beyond if there's demand).
It doesn't have a season listed, but MTC's subscription page confirms that they have a third unannounced Broadway show:https://www.manhattantheatreclub.com/subscribe/"
MTC is not doing a fall Broadway show, or at least not one at the Friedman. They're doing some capital projects (HVAC, fire alarm, lighting upgrades) at the Friedman that are going to go into the fall. Eureka Day isn't starting previews until late November.

Rialto Chatter: Will OH, MARY! and JOB Transfer to Broadway? Apr 11
2024, 10:51:38 AM
A friend is a co-producer on the transfer of OH, MARY! and earlier this week I was told that the plan is for a 12 week run starting in June. I had assumed (and didn't ask to confirm) it would go into the Booth, but that timeline doesn't seem to work with THE ROOMMATE getting announced this morning. I'd guess the Lyceum now, but Studio 54 could also be a possibility?

Six Rush or Lottery News Jan 30

FANtomFollies said: "I am thinking of entering the lottery for Six but had a few questions -
1- How difficult is the lottery to win? I'd be entering for 1 ticket if that makes a difference
2 - Are the lotto seats in a specific location or random?
3 - I'd be going alone and really hate audience participation...are there moments where the audience is asked to stand/clap/dance or anything like that?
4 - Is the show still 'fresh'

2023-2024 Broadway Season Jul 31
2023, 05:30:45 PM
Whatever that is, I don't think it's correct. Roundabout's website isn't showing production dates yet for Doubt or Home and they're both listed for the American Airlines Theatre. Also, May 30th next year is a Thursday so I can't imagine that would be the closing date.

HunterK said: "I didn't know where else to ask this, so please excuse it.
I won the lotto for "One More Time" for tomorrow. Can anyone tell me if you have to pick up the tickets personally at the box office or are they sent to your email?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!"
They will get emailed to you a few hours before the performance.
