Looking camp right in the eye.

12 weeks is an incredibly short run for a show with no A-list stars who need to leave for a strict shooting schedule somewhere. Given the crazy business it’s doing just in the first 48 hours of sales, barring massive box office holdbacks, I can’t imagine this not adding at least a month of performances. It all depends on what Studio Seaview has lined up after them. We won’t know anything about Broadway prospects until it opens and we see if it’s even any good, but the odds of them transferrin...

Exclusive: Spring Awakening’s New Cast, Revealed More information about the cast and the production aesthetics we’ll be getting (forestry, dirt floor). Really thrilled to read that the choreography will be abundant.

I’ve never been so pleased to see absolutely no star casting. The original was a group of relative unknowns with a handful of professional credits, and look where they ended up.

malcs98 said: "So I got my ticket for previews and am thinking about watching the 1992 film adaptation, how similar is it to the original stage show?"The most famous line (“You can’t handle the truth!”) is in the movie and not the play; at least the published script. Otherwise, it’s exactly the same. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the line added to this revival, though it threatens to garner applause at a moment when there should be a chill.

Constantly-shifting dynamic pricing makes me want to launch myself into the sun. I was looking for tickets for my mom and I an hour ago, and $115 seats are now $129 and mostly gone. I hate it here.

I think Sam Pinkleton’s direction style skews more playful than “weird.” And Annie needs to have a sense of playfulness or it’s dull. I’d be super interested to see his vision for it.

Other Desert Cities was dusty and dated when it premiered too, but it was bolstered by (largely) great performances - just as it will likely be here. Hickey’s a safe choice, and the script really doesn’t require or demand anything flashy.

Cancelled, with Empire Street Productions retaining the stage rights to produce it independent of the Barbican in 2028. What a shame.

The marketing for this show has been every bit as delightful as the play itself.

RippedMan said: "I don't really have any interest in this show but the tour is coming to Chicago in a few weeks. Assuming it'll be pretty much the exact replica of the Broadway show?"There’s nothing about the show that can’t be done in a touring house, so yes.

As someone who was in the minority of loving everything about the Ivo van Hove revival, I’d really welcome a truly fresh interpretation from top to bottom. Marianne Elliott is certainly known for that, so I have faith. And what a massive canvas to work on.

Nettik said: "The balcony is fully unavailable for purchase for most weekday shows starting in a couple of weeks. Unsure if it's being reserved for groups or if they're transitioning to a smaller capacity."Creating ticket scarcity for dates they don’t anticipate selling well. Then they can open it back up as the date gets closer if they’re well-sold enough.All in all, not a great sign for longevity.

I hesitate to say you’re all hyperventilating about this for nothing, because strange things happen all the time and lord knows ticket prices are soaring, but I think you’re all hyperventilating for nothing. The $250 price point for Small Mouth Sounds is clearly going to be a section of prime location seats. There’s about a 0.01% chance $250 is the cheapest price point. Even with the level of celebrity on display, it’s a one-act, nearly-dialogue-free show. While I don’t imagine tickets will b...

Jordan Catalano said: "This may be a silly question for people who know this play, buti know this is (mostly) a silent play, is there any place where we might get to hear Julia’s iconiclaugh?"I’d say probably. If I’m remembering correctly, her character is the one who initially struggles the most with the silence rules of the retreat.

Jordan Catalano said: "Julia Roberts, Paul Rudd, Martin Freeman, Greta Lee, Sarah Paulson and Isaac Powell. This is going to be the hottest ticket in years."This casting is… truly insane. Wow. Wow wow.

inception said: "Not too many offices have landline telephones anymore, so nowadays it's much harder to beat up your PA with just a little iphone"Tell that to Naomi Campbell’s housekeeper.In all seriousness, Rudin’s back. Period. The shock and outrage that people still want to work with him feels performative at this point. Theatre artists know he’s the best of the best at what he does. As long as he continues to keep his head down and not make waves, I say let him. Being on thin ice seems to...

EDSOSLO858 said: "Should be noted that current Genie Caleb A. Barnett will stay in the company during Shepherd’s run as her standby."This whole thing reeks of desperation to save their dying show while they finish developing whatever’s going to replace it. At least they’re doing right by the guy they’re displacing from his contract by keeping him on the payroll.

Theatrefanboy1 said: "any thoughts on the chances of it playing in NY somewhere the first week of March 2027?"Your guess is as good as ours. All signs point to it opening on Broadway before the typical April cut-off, but we’ll see. Late additions to the season tend to open in mid-March to early April.
