Profile for inception

Has anyone checked if the discount code that was taking 50% off orchestra seats is still working for those dates?

Hannah Solow? Who the is that? Cole Escola or no one. Not some understudy/standby/whatever who is only known to Stans. Will the right holders allow drag Hannigans? This kind of feels like just a limited run for the Holidays to fill a theatre. Annie instead of Elf.

Did bwyworld jump the gun with their article? Nothing on the Playbill site yet. The link to tickets takes you to the anniebroadeay site where nothing loads for me.

I think Ms Erivo has some bad management. I think it's a big mistake to focus on films so much - especially ones that are not musicals. If she had done a theatre concert tour instead to follow up Wicked I think that would have benefitted her career more, because she's frigging amazing live. That could have built her fan base more, and then she might get offers for bigger films. She needs to do some hit nutty comedy like Liza did with the Arthur films.

Oh great, more travel temptation, just what I need.Tentatively have a trip to Maritimes booked next summer. Haven't booked flights yet. If I stopped in Chicago on the trip home there's scheduled flights where I could do Halifax to Chicago getting into O'Hara at 11:15 am on a Sunday. Would thst give enough time to collect luggage and get into the city to take in a 2pm matinee?Risky to book that now as airlines notoriously change their schedules as the year progresses.

CoffeeBreak said: "Decidingif worth seeing next week..."Well, his previous play Job took off. That description is so weird & vague. It could be good or it could be lousy. Somebody has to be among the first to see things.

Thanks for this info tacotheatrelover. The Alabama Shakespeare Festival site has more info giving a better idea of which version Disney is licensing. That site says"Book by Robert Horn & Kwame Kwei-Armah."https://asf.net/disney-hercules-the-musical/

I don't know, as they don't have much more info up on their site yet I would guess that it might be closer to the version that played London in 2025.

The show has a pretty good book with an interesting premise. Much better than most lazy jukebox musicals. I hope future creatives learn from the success it had. That's one of the reasons it succeeded while kind of dumb film adaptations like Death Becomes Her or Mrs. Doubtfire failed.Edit: And why we don't need things like Devil Wears Prada!

RippedMan said: "It's always the same choreography so it's like how new and exciting can it be? The Characters are paper thin. But hopefully this staging is enticing."I think that was part of the excitement with seeing Van Hove's production. The new choreography was very interesting. I don't know that all the screens worked for me. But for the most part I liked it.I had to fix a typo. That originally read "for the moist part" & definitely parts of Van Hove's production made me very moist.

I'm curious about the reasons behind not starting previews until the week of Thanksgiving? Right now it is only scheduled through January 10. Do they figure if it does well then that lets them extend through January when there are fewer shows to compete with for attention? It is a pretty small theatre so doesn't take much to sell out. It's such a pain for people traveling to choose the rights dates to visit the city, when you will be able to see the most. Some things close before Thanksgiving...

When you see the name Julia Louis-Dreyfus on a marquee you think it will be a comedy. Then when you Google the play & learn it is a drama about rich Republicans it kind of dampens your enthusiasm. I don't think this will be the smash hit people predict. They should have chosen Noises Off or some sh!t like that. Which reminds me I gotta go check this morning what the new dates added are for Heated Rivalry. I want to see that more.

Tuacahn Amphitheater in Utah anounced their 2027 season tonight, and it looks like they have been selected by Disney to present the first regional production of Hercules. Not much other info yet on the website.The other shows next summer are Prince of Egypt & Hairspray.https://www.tuacahn.org/2027-season-reveal/

I'm find it to be a $10-20 discount on the date I looked at mid-November with that code. Yesterday Rocky Horror put out a code that dropped the seat I bought 50%, knocking $100 off. Now that's a discount.

HBO has been pretty good about later releasing their shows on DVD & Blu-ray. And if you don't want to purchase those, perhaps your local library will get copies like mine does.

It hasn't sold out Las Vegas. It doesn't start at MGM Grand until October 15. Las Vegas entertainment reporters were scratching their heads over the announcement - it's not like Vegas is short on magic shows. Tickets will probably be free & easy to get for MGM Rewards members with good play.

What were they asking for orchestra seats? I sat in the Loge once when I was inexperienced with looking for best discounts and had bought last row early but then at the show* the entire Loge was actually empty and I was able to move down to the first row. Half the orchestra walked out at intermission. The usher was like, "You need to stay in the seat you paid for." And I said Go F Yourself. Center the view should be good.*Ethan Hawke as MacBeth. Not all movie stars should do Broadway.

Thanks Quizking, they got me with a discount code. Glad I waited. I hope row E isn't too close.

I'll be in DC a few days in November & had this penciled in as a possibility to see as I've long been interested in Tesla (before it meant cars). Could see the James Ijames play Wilderness Generation at Studio Thestre?

That's supposed to sell tickets? Nothing I've seen from this show will get me in the door. Maybe on tour in a couple years if I don't have anything better to do.
