Any new promo codes? So much availability, and no discounts?
Just wondering...Those that have attended, how full is the house???

1776 Broadway revival cast for 2021 Jun 12
2022, 08:43:35 AM
We saw it last night and I am in agreement with what most have said. We found the 1st act to drag. We really enjoyed the second act, which got better and better and ended on a high note. If you live or are visiting the area, it is worth seeing. The ART, as it always has, provides a local audience a great opportunity to see wonderful broadway talent, in an intimate venue, at low ticket costs. There is not a bad seat in the house.
Kudos to ART in making our 1st post pandemic theate

LOVED it!
Teriffic Fun show! Great cast, great music &, funny . HIstory made so current .After seeing it last Friday, I thought the lenght was just right . I was previously concerned that it would be too short. As much as I would have liked to enjoy for a longer time period, I felt it worked in the 75ish minutes. THey told their story and made it fun, can't imagine how it could be lengthened.
The gals were great at ART's wonderfully civilized indoor "stage door&

CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY National Tour Jan 24

It was a fun night out in Boston for a discounted partial view front Orch seat, however I would not recommend it at a higher cost. I enjoy most musicals, but this would be close to the bottom of my list. My husband is a fan of the first movie, and enjoyed it more than I did, Tons of kids in the audience Friday evening. They were fans of the more recent movie and seemed to enjoy it. I thought it was one of the worst scores I have heard. Hard to hear the lyrics. The music, IMO , all went downhi

Magic Mike in Boston Jan 24

Happy that the Colonial is getting another pre- broadway tryout. Not so happy with the pricing, seems high for pre broadway previews. I know they want to recoup the renovation, however expecting these prices a year in advance for something brand new without any casting announced ! Disappointing. Guess I've been spoiled by pre Broadway tryouts at the American Repertory. I did go to Moulin Rouge the final weekend and it was worth it, however for Magic Mikke, Really!

The Prom or Mean Girls? Nov 8
2018, 05:22:03 PM
Definitely the PROM!
We enjoyed them both.
Saw them the same weekend, Mean Girls is fun Fluff. The Prom, as has been noted on this board, is special and memorable. Score is far superior. No contest!

Frozen or Anastasia!? Oct 30
2018, 05:10:58 PM
WICKED Period!
In my opinion, Nothing else compares for a 1st visit to Broadway! Nothing else compares period!
Anastasia was nice, and I haven't been impressed by the clips I have seen of Frozen. Stick with the animated versions.
Lion King would be a good choice for a second show.

Mean Girls, Bands' Visit or Summer? Oct 29
2018, 04:38:18 PM
Thanks for all the input. We are a suburban baby boomer couple visiting from Boston. Had to delay the Band's Visit for another time with a different theater companion. I think it might have been too slow and quiet for my husband. He tends to like big bold musicals. I like a broad range. Ended up with Mean Girls. It was fun enjoyable fluff or a rainy Saturday. Then saw the Prom on Sunday due to the responses on this board. Extremely enjoyable and would definately recommend over

Thanks so much to all who recommended this great show! Was visiting for the weekend and trying to decide what else to see. The Prom was not on my radar previously. Saw it Sunday due to reviews on this board and my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed, as did the entire audience. Definitely a crowd pleaser. We are passing on the recommendation to all we know in NYC and visiting. Thanking those who post thoughtful reviews. This is a great resource. Wishing this show success!

Became interested in this show after reading the threads. Checked out tickets for this weekend and I was surprised and dissapointed to see there is very limited availability, especially in discounted tickets. Just a few ORCH seats at full price. Seem to be selling. Any other discounts out there??

Coming to NYC soon and have seen the majority of musicals out now. I know these are all totally different types of shows. Curious for feedback. Thanks.

How did you like the Table Seating? Would you recommend buying tickets for the tables or several rows from the front in the orch? I run to the restroom just as the lights come down at intermission. Will this be a problem at the tables?
thanks

Come from away or the great comet?. Feb 26
2017, 10:11:58 PM
I agree, Come From Away! Saw both pre-broadway, Comet in Cambridge and CFA in DC. Comet is very different. CFA really stuck with me. Such an uplifting story from such a horrific time!

SOMETHING ROTTEN! National Tour Thread Jan 23
2017, 10:11:18 AM
Saw it last night in Boston. We thought it was throughly entertaining and a lot of fun! The audience seemed to be in agreement. Haven't heard cheers & laughs that loud in a while at the Opera house. I thought the entire cast was terrific, totally isync and impressive this early in the run. The bigger fan you of broadway musicals, the more you will enjoy this show. So many references to shows of old and new, some subtle some obvious. Don't read to much into it, just go with an
