Saw this tonight and Kim is 16 in this production. Not sure why some were stating that they had increased the character's age.

Broadway needs to start using Yondr pouches
Nov 5
2023, 09:35:17 AM
I personally hate them. I turn off my phone before the show starts and don't turn it on again until it's over and Yonder pouches make it difficult to then put my phone in my pocket and I'm stuck holding it. I find it so frustrating that people can't just follow a simple instruction and turn them off. I can understand using the pouches as an added level of security when there is nudity on stage, but otherwise, I really hope it does not become the norm on Broadway.&n

Waiting for that Taylor Swift musical in 20 years."
There’s always demand for Britney classics. This show is just weak, starting with the title and marketing."
I agree- having seen it in DC, the story was weak, even if though the music and dancing made it fun. It looks like they tried to add more b

ONCE UPON A ONE MORE TIME Pre-Broadway Tryout - Previews & Reviews

EDSOSLO858 said: "Many new cast members on that list.
Notably, Ryann Redmond replaces MiMi Scardulla, and Nathan Levy replaces Raymond J. Lee."
Nothing against Ryann, but I'm sorry to see that MiMi isn't doing this. I thought her performance was a highlight of the show in DC. They've definitely added some characters too. Will be curious to hear about the changes they are making.

I was wondering the same thing about MiMi. She was fantastic in the DC production.

I thought it was just okay, especially given what they are charging. There were some interesting things to see, but it did feel very light on actual artifacts. As someone else said, the Hal Prince exhibit was much better.

Have Broadway Productions Ever Utilized Focus Groups?
Aug 21
2022, 01:37:23 PM
I've never heard of a focus group per se, but I'm pretty sure I got a survey to complete after DEH at Arena Stage, and I got one that was clearly about Jagged Little Pill that was basically a marketing survey around title options and how they framed the show. The JLP one was before it ran in Boston- no idea how I ended up on that list. I don't live there and didn't see it until it was on Broadway.
I do think focus groups during out of town tryouts woul

Advice for canceling trip
Aug 8
2022, 04:40:44 PM
Sadly, I may have to cancel my upcoming trip. Does anyone have any advice about how to hopefully not totally lose everything on the tickets I have? Two were purchased through Telecharge (Potus and A Strange Loop) and the other is Seat Geek (Into the Woods). I know I can post the Seat Geek one for resale, but has anyone had any experience getting refunds with them or with Telecharge for that matter? For the telecharge tickets, how do I go about reselling them if I can't g

Beanie Feldstein Departing FUNNY GIRL on July 31 (Two Months Earlier Than Originally Announced)

2022, 08:15:43 PM
I'm glad the cast and some of the crew as well as the audience gave her a loving send off at her final curtain call. This definitely wasn't her role from what I saw at the preview I attended and it sounds like things were handled poorly as that became increasingly apparent, but she clearly was loved by many of the cast and crew and at the end of the day, being a good person and co-worker matter more. Best wishes to her.

Caroline, or Change runtime?

You should be okay. Last Sunday I saw it at 3 and then made it to Six for 6pm. It’s tight and I was sitting on the aisle and therefore able to make a quick exit but you should be able to do it.

CNBC Article: Nobody wants to see a Broadway show
Aug 14
2021, 03:12:18 PM
I haven't bought any tickets yet and for me it is partially about Delta of course, but because of their vaccination policies I'd feel okay going. Mostly, I've balked at buying tickets and planning a trip because at least for the shows I've looked at I can get a decent seat for a reasonable price. Almost the entire orchestra and the front of the mezz are premium tickets. If I'm going to go, I'd like a good seat and I'm not willing to pay those prem

Music Man Tickets?
Jun 6
2021, 03:05:13 PM
I hope everyone is well and looking forward to getting back to live theater! I was just starting to plan a trip to the city and went looking for Music Man tickets. There's nothing about buying tickets on the Music Man website and telecharge has a weird message about tickets only being able to be rebooked. Totally get that those who had the pre-pandemic get priority for rebooking, but does anyone know when they will go on sale for everyone else? Thanks!

What platform are they using for these livestreams?
Apr 7
2020, 10:20:52 PM
Hope everyone is healthy and hanging in there okay. I am wondering if anyone knows what platform is being used to produce these livestreams - Lips Together, Teeth Apart, Rosie's Actor's Fund benefit show, Stars in the House, etc? I've got some sad students with a canceled show and am trying to figure out (with permission from licensing company of course) how we might produce something for their friends, parents and grandparents to watch. People seem to be calling

It is identical in almost every way to TBVin terms of structure, and hell, even narrative (Lost souls meeting at a guesthouse and discuss their turmoils.) I really didn't like The Bands Visit or understand why it was so lauded, but I will say I enjoyed this more.
I found the show admirable in it

Tips for first NYC trip?
Feb 5
2020, 05:48:46 PM
So many great suggestions on here. I also really like the Tenement Museum. An easy and interesting thing to do if you have a few hours - I tend to go late Sunday morning if I have a 3pm matinee ticket. Have the best time!! There is great theater put on all over the country, but there really is nothing like the magic of Broadway!
