7:15 last NIGHT?? They go on sale when the box office opens- at 10, I'm assuming? And there were still tickets left? I hope that means I don't need to show up at 6 in the morning...

Mary Poppins student rush?!
Aug 6
2009, 06:32:57 PM
From playbill.com's student rush policies page:
Student Rush: $30 - sold on the day of performance when the box office opens. Subject to availability. Only available to college/university students. Limit 1 ticket per valid ID.
Maybe I haven't been around for a while, but I didn't think any of the disney shows did this. Has anybody done it? How early do people show up? Where are the seats? Do they consistently sell weekend tickets, or will they not sell any becaus

Extra ticket to Connect/Disconnect Wed 7/22!
Jul 21
2009, 01:08:13 PM
I have a ticket to Connect/Disconnect for this Wednesday night at 9:00 that I'm not going to use. It's part of the Midtown International Theatre Festival. I bought it at the student price- $15. It's an E-ticket so I can email you a PDF that you can print out and pay with paypal. Anybody interested?
EDIT: I don't want the ticket to go to waste, so if it's only money that's stopping you, PM me.
Here's some more info:

Representational/Presenational Acting
May 2
2007, 07:56:07 PM
I'm doing a paper on Repect for Acting by Uta Hagen, and in it she talks about the difference between representational and presentation acting....but I was doing some research online, and I'm finding a lot of things that say that the 2 kinds of acting are actually opposite of what she says. According to her, "The Representational actor deliberately chooses to imitate or illustrate the character's behavior. The Presentational actor attempts to reveal human behavior through a use of himself, through an understanding of himself and consequently and understanding of the character he is portraying. The Representational actor finds a form based on an objective result for the character, which he then carefully watches as he executes it. The Presentational actor trusts that a form will result from identification with the character and discovery of his character's actions, and works on stage for a moment-to-moment subjective experience."
Butttttt here is one example of something I found online (don't worry, wikipedia isn't the only thing i'm basing my question on, there are many others that say the same thing): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presentational_acting
I'd trust a book over the internet any day of the week, but they are saying the complete opposite thing!

David Pack's The Songs of West Side Story CD

Does anybody else have the cd of David Pack's arrangements of the Songs of WSS? I'm totally in love with it, it's my new favorite cd. Tonight, Maria, Something's Coming, the Jet Song, and the Rumble are definitely my favorites. And Cool. The arrangements and performances are SO amazing!

Wait, that song was added into the show for the revival? It wasn't in the original?

What show has moved you the most, and why?

PersonofInterest- I do the same exact thing! I cry a large majority of the time, for various reasons, and the people I'm with often just stare or say "aww." It really makes it an uncomfortable situation! So I go alone whenever I can now too.
Anyway, for me it would probably be Sweeney Todd, which was the first Sondheim show I ever saw performed (the revival). I had never seen or heard anything like it- Sondheim is so unbelievable. And the other one is Grey Gardens. It took a whil

I've done it a few times, and gotten side front orchestra. It's partial view, because you can't see one of the side walls to Max's office and things like that, but I've also moved closer to center both times.

Piecing together a monologue

2007, 03:44:20 PM
Hey, I posted this on the student board, but it's only gotten like 14 views and no responses in a couple of hours so I'm posting it here, I hope that's ok.
I'm thinking about doing a monologue from A Raisin In The Sun. Beneatha has a pretty large chunk of speech herself that I was going to use, but it's interrupted in a few places by Asagai, and I know that it's possible to just eliminate those lines....however, his lines aren't just "yes, go on.." sort of lines- she actually responds t

Sleep as much as you possibly can....and if you have a vaporizer, you should put it on while you sleep, especially if you have your heat on (it dries out the air).

On playbill.com there's an open audition for Sweeney-
http://www.playbill.com/jobs/find/job_detail/14627.html
Anybody know exactly what this is for? The dates say that it's only a 3-month run, and it's equity...I'm just sort of confused, because it seems weird that they would make a professional production right now in NY.

I sat in fourth row partial view seats and it SUCKED. By "partial view" they really mean "you don't see the majority of the stuff happening on stage, including the ENTIRE triangle march thing" view.

By "rapped", don't they just mean sort of talked-sung? Like whoever played Morrible in Wicked that couldn't sing? Because as much as I'd like somebody who can do the music justice, if they insist on using someone who can't sing I'd rather see it "rapped" than see him attempt to sing it.

I went a few weeks ago to get standing room and they weren't selling any at the time, even though telecharge said they were. I'd check with the box office before you try anything. And don't bother getting the $66 partial view seats either, because...well, you know the big triangle at the end of act 1? I couldn't see any of it, that's how "partial view" the seats are.
