Everyone who had their popcorn ready for Jack Black to yell "chicken jockey" is sorely disappointed.  According to Fox News a riot broke out at the box office of 13 year olds demanding their money back.

.....just kidding.

At what theater?

I was guessing the Eisenhower, as that's what the last few posts were about, but the seating chart for that theater shows no mezzanine.  

Welp that makes me want to see it even less.  I hate haunted houses.

Good for all y'all who eat up this sheet,  but I got 0% FOMO

Oh that would be interesting,  a bunch of 13 year olds throwing popcorn for Jack Black when he sings "Chicken jockey" as Herod.

I know LA is its own vibe, but are there always crowds of 13 year olds at the Hollywood Bowl?

Erivo is in Vancouver right now filming some movie, and people are excited.

Scroll down to Gallery for photos of the 2001 Danish productionhttps://musicals.dk/show/chess-2001/?lang=en"

To be honest, I thought those photos made it look awful.  But the recording is good.

I am liking the London Concert album a bit more because I really like Menzel & Groban.

Lea Michele is going to have to be really good to compare to Idina for me.

The mauve outfit on Courtney is gorgeous.

There's a thread on Reddit with reports from the first preview including a comment with a photo.of the song list.  I can't get that image to post here.  But the whole thread is at this address:

Yup, there's rush if you want to do it.  I'll pay $179 & leave rushing for others.   My time in NYC is too limited & precious to stand in a frigging line.  I don't even want to stand in line for too long to get into the Met Museum if it's too busy.

 

If you can do center mezz,  even last row there, those are better seats.

December 26,27,28 are three two show days in a row.

I wonder if even the puppets in that workshop scene will still go on by the last show?

Lupone as Svetlana.... It would be easy to understand why Anatoly wouldn't worry about leaving an older wife behind in  Russia.  Maybe it would be like when Omtay Ruiscay married an older woman early in his career to mask his omosexualityhay.

Is it crazy that those "cheap" seats are $159 & $179 on weekends? There was only one left on a date I was looking at & just bit the bullet.

Micaela Diamond joining this is new info.

I have space left for one show in November... was thinking maybe CSC's The Baker's Wife?  Unless I scrap something else like Seth Myers at Beacon Theatre
