I learned about this change here, which is wild since I subscribed to the New Group's season. I wrote to ask what happened, and Rope is replacing the play Bocking. Maybe I missed an email, but it sure seems like they publicly announced this production without informing their subscribers about the change (or that they could book their tickets before general on sale)!

Code just came in. Miserable seat selection at the back of the front mezz and the far sides of the orchestra. I'm very unhappy.

I'm hoping, perhaps naively, that the $250 SMS seats will be as good as the $150 Downstate options. I'll be pretty angry if they're not, but...worst case scenario, I still have great seats for Downstate, which isn't nothing!

I REALLY wish they could give a more specific time on the SMS codes. I'll be in a meeting at 1 and would hate to miss the first batch of seat options because of it.

I saw that the SMS code will be emailed by Telecharge "within 4 hours of Downstate purchase." Don't have mine yet.

Truly bananas that Mantello would be able to stage three new Broadway productions in the same season. I happen to think he's one of our best directors (I know opinion is divided on that front), but...literally, how would he even have the time? I assume this would be the David Hare play Montauk that was mentioned in the big NYT article on Rudin, but...who knows!

I despise the idea of an "immersive" production of Les Miserables. On the other hand, something like the Dallas Theater Center's production from a decade back...THAT I would be really excited to see in NYC. That was big and fresh and very much not stripped down.

Midnight at the Never Get they certainly will try to transfer (probably with Platt).Then add in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil and you have another White Rose/Wild Rose/Wild/Wild About You problem againHeading to edit my OG post now!" Lollllll. An easy mistake to make. Consider my hopefulness reinvigorated. :)

I was hoping I might have a chance to see it. Ah well!

Another vote for Follies. Everything I've heard, seen, and read about the production makes it sound extraordinary. And I have to say--one of the surprisingly lovely things about aging is getting to look through a thread like this and remember how lucky I am to have seen some of these shows! The OBC of Ragtime and Elaine Paige in Sunset Boulevard, I was lucky enough to be there for. I may be getting old, but I got to see Audra's Sarah! :)

Do we know the nut for The Great Gatsby? It's such a huge cast that I'm impressed they've managed to stay open given their grosses over the past couple of months.

Gonna be a dissenting voice. While I agree that it's a hugely talented cast and that it's beautifully sung, I thought the writing was kind of terrible. As intentional as the anachronisms for time and place are, they don't all seem to come from the same point-of-view, which is odd as Nettles is the only writer on the show. And tonally, I reallllllly struggled with the primary villain so often being played for laughs given what he is doing/attempting to do. Very late in the show, Giulia is aske...

Can say with a good degree of certainty that it's not Alaska. And Jinkx goes into Oh, Mary in London next month, so that wouldn't make sense. I'm charmed by the idea of Suzie Toot doing it, though it's mentioned above that she has tour dates. Onya Nurve could also be a delight.

Do we know the running costs over at Gatsby? Based on where the grosses have been coming in, I’m a bit surprised it hasn’t announced closing, especially since it’s such a big cast. And a big theater!

110! My first ever perfect score. I REALLY had to work on those Tony speech quotes!

AllThatJazz2 said: "Anyone able to access the Audience Rewards presale? It's just taking me to the homepage and no indication of the show itself." Same. Even the link direct from the show's website just drops me on the Audience Rewards standard page. And searching for the show by title turns up no results.

I haven’t seen Schmigadoon yet. Going tonight actually. But I genuinely loved The Lost Boys. It might help that I was a teen when the movie came out, but I thought the show was a blast. I was rooting for it to win. But let’s see how I feel after tonight’s show! This thread did remind me that I’m still mad that Memphis, which I truly hated, beat Fela and American Idiot. Both jukebox musicals, sure, but vastly superior artistically.
