It's hard to argue anything on this when the OP only half remembers the stage production they're using as reference.

I feel like we're being tricked into arguing it for them.

I wonder if Shoshana opted to unfollow when Cynthia started having...opinions...about Broadway and other stuff.

I need to see Andy! I need those dedicated folks to tell when he'll be in and George will be out!

Christine Dwyer needs to blame the producers and the marketing team because I've literally heard more about this show since the closing notice last week than I have since it was announced.

FYI this code still seems to work, even with closing in a couple of weeks.

They're just trying to tank the show at this point. Why George why.

Yes, I that's who I'm thinking of, thank you.

I miss Time Out New York's hottest ensemblists, but I know it doesn't fly these days. 

For the love of God, people. Theatre folks care about this. The general public doesn't. As long as the money keeps rolling in and making the theatre owners - who likely vote Republican, but not MAGA - they're just going to wait until things blow over. 

One could lose track of just how many CEOs of our favorite brands vote Republican and espouse conservative values.

This.

This is what happens when race is brought into an issue that should've never been, because it never was. 

And now there will never be agreement. 

Patti was absolutely right to go to the landlord. If she had walked next door to the theatre, it would've been the subject of so much, "Who does she think she is, walking into another person's theatre like that." 

Kecia, on the other hand, should've gone a quieter route. Instead, set dynamite to the conversation. 

Was at the show last night, took this picture to help with the stage height question. I would say the distance between the front platform and the rest of the stage was at least two feet, there was no way for them to step up from one to another without the stage left providing a step.

I was second row on the side inner aisle, and while for the most part it was fine, as most action took place downstage, very quickly you started seeing less of their legs the further upstage they were. I'm tall and whenever Jenny was towards upstage, I could only see her from the lower waist and up. So I would say try to get a few rows back if you can. 

As for the show, I decided to go in fully blind, and like others I was totally charmed by it. A sweet story with some incredible visuals and lovely songs. (Did it need the expensive set? No. But kudos for them to make this story more epic as a result.) Criss and Shen I wasn't sure would have chemistry, but they truly did as the show went on, they were great. And I have to give kudos to Duron, never thought I'd want Criss to stop singing but Duron was fabulous. Would totally see it again...front a few rows back.

Seeing Bernadette at Two River Theatre in a few weeks, can't wait to see her in a relatively intimate venue.

I love that the Times does their own photography, it's almost always so much better than the production photos. 

Saw it shortly before opening, and it was fine, if not memorable. But I account that to the fact there's really nothing timeless to break through in public consciousness and make it to parody level. As much of a hit that Hell's Kitchen in, the Venn Diagram is not wide enough to make it worthy of an extended number. Even narrower for Suffs. The Back to the Future arc was fun because it had more to play with. But otherwise, a lot of talent with not much to play with.

While I normally give anything Cynthia says an eye roll, I actually agree with her on this. The amount of people creating their own edits to "fix it" to match the Broadway poster is galling to me. The movies is its own thing. The poster design is intentional. It doesn't need to adhere to what some people think it should be. 

Can't imagine a scenario where A Wonderful World makes it anywhere past the spring.
