Critics absolutely understood the assignment on this. It’s here for a good time, not a long time.

I don’t personally think there’s anything wrong with the casting since I’m not terribly familiar with any of their work, but - aside from Ruthie Ann Miles and Leslie Kritzer, who are tragically overqualified for these roles - it’s just not very exciting. However, Zane Phillips feels like the 10th choice for El Gallo if they were offering that role out specifically. That’s the real head-scratcher here.

The term “icon” gets thrown around a lot, but it is exactly the one I’d use to describe Dolly Parton. Not just because she was visually and aurally so iconic, but because she was so worthy of being worshipped by the people who appreciated and loved her. She gave us wonderful music, but she also showed us what the human spirit is capable of through her charity work and humanitarian efforts. A truly one-of-a-kind person. What a life!

Smaxie happens to be correct, for what it’s worth. It’s official: https://playbill.com/article/the-rocky-horror-show-revival-to-release-cast-album

I just saw her and she was fine; not great, but fine.The show was on fire tonight. A couple obnoxious call-outs that threw Dratch for a loop, but otherwise, the whole cast was nailing it. Luke f*cking Evans, you guys. We’re so lucky to have gotten this performance this season. Can’t believe anyone had doubts about him, especial...

At least that is the title on the er, "unofficial" recording shared with me back in 2018."It’s called “I’m Having Fun

witchoftheeast2 said: "Is the left orchestra a horrible place to sit?"Answered your question in post #18, but it depends where in the left orchestra. How far over? How far back? In general, I would say take the restricted/partial view notice on this one seriously, regardless of how much they’re charging for it.

This is one of the roughest shows I’ve had to wait to flee at intermission (myself and 4 others). Totally bizarre to record it at this point, unless they’re trying to exhume the corpse.The one song I liked from it (“Fun”) was performed at Bryant Park and they seem to have scrubbed it from YouTube, while the original actor in the role seems also to have been recast for the recording. Odd.

This is one of a handful of shows I’ve left at intermission. Really didn’t get the love for it from what I saw, but I’d be curious to revisit (finish) under Mantello’s direction.In total agreement that K. Todd Freeman is very overdue for his Tony. Airline Highway should have been his win.

Friend, I don’t think you’re doing the spoiler tag right.

For what it’s worth, I wouldn’t sit to the extreme side, extreme front, or under the mezz overhang in the orchestra by choice for any production. I’ve rarely seen a show without partial view seats.

It was a 1/2 empty house, so I moved at intermission and could see better."I sat Center Orchestra Row C last night and I definitely wouldn’t sit any closer than that, and for sure not off to the sides.For center viewing, you’d want to be anywhere from Orchestra Row C to Row S, and Mezzanine Row A to Row L.

As a lifelong horror fan who was exactly the right age and demographic to be waiting in line at midnight for the original Paranormal Activity movie, I’m so happy I saw this with a sold out audience primed to enjoy themselves. I thought this was a total blast, beginning to end.The script is essentially a loose frame on which to hang a series of spooky set pieces, and the dialogue tips into clunky territory more than a couple times, but as an attempt to bring the feeling of the movie series at ...

First preview is sold out. I lost the lotto and didn’t get TodayTix rush, and then they only sold 2 tickets to the in-person rush line. Cancellation it is! 🤞

I’ve got tickets with friends for the 9pm Halloween show, but hoping to get lotto/rush for the first preview tomorrow. This has been at the top of my list since they did it in Leeds. Any chance to see horror on stage, I’m there.
