If you can even find any front orchestra. There seems to be almost nothing for the entire run. Do they not release everything during a presale?

Don’t know much about it beyond this Kennedy Center announcement, but there’s a new tour starting next year being directed by Jack O’Brien.

Hopefully they'll cast an actual child in the child role.

It always amazes me the lengths that trailers for musicals will go to in order to hide the fact that it’s a musical. You saw ONE fragment of singing. That said, looks wonderful — cannot wait!!! 

Once again - I continue to utterly baffled by this message board and the awful responses about (well, almost everything) this show. It’s intermission now (Sat 2pm performance) and THIS SHOW IS F**KING ASTOUNDINGLY PERFECT. I am in complete awe. 

Does anyone know if Orch row A & B are actually going to be used for Sweeney Todd? I only ask because I've looked through multiple dates (even when first went on sale) -- and C is the first that EVER had any seats for sale.  Could A&B be removed for a possible larger orchestra pit -- or perhaps they're just being held for lottery or something?

Here tonight! Dunno what the use will be, if anything, but there’s a multi-camera crew here set up to film. 

Orch A & B are oddly placed on the TM seat map — do we think that there going to be removed for the pit… & perhaps C is going to wind up being the front row? 

Ok - A & B look normal now on the map. I guess they’re going to be there. I was excited that I might have unknowingly scored first row. 

They B-Roll the entire show, with fully composed, multi-angle shots of seemingly every scene? Hmmm.

Is it me -- or does all the footage (seen in the new trailer and the recent "In The Wings" episode) certainly make it seems that they pro-shot the entire show?  Something tells me this might wind up on Disney+ or something at some point in the future.

I have to say that I completely don’t understand ANY of the negativity about Beanie. We saw this yesterday and thought she was amazing. Absolutely perfect comic timing and her voice seemed wonderful to us. The 2pm audience certainly seemed to adore her — they were applauding and cheering like crazy after her every solo. 

Couldn't he just be, you know, sick?

Hi all -

I hadn't checked tix for this until now -- but I'm looking at Oct/Nov/Dec.  Am I seeing right that there are no "Premium" tickets for this?  I don't even see that as an option -- and there are zero blue seats showing up.  The only orchestra seats I see are random singles and some back corner blocks later on.  Is this THAT sold out, or are things not fully "released" yet?

The Hirschfeld just seems kinda ... hidden ... for something that should be a big and flashy spectacle. The Winter Garden seems perfect, imho.
