I'm not an AI expert, but that REALLY seems like someone cranked that design out on AI in 5 minutes and said it was good enough.

Phantom really is amazing.  To think that Lion King opened in Nov of 1997 and still has a couple more years to go to beat out Phantom.  That's crazy.

Finally got to see the show. I was quite underwhelmed. Flat energy. Nothing stood out. Very forgettable. Meh.

It's a cute little filler show for tourists to see in NYC or to take in on its tour. I'll not see it again, even if they bring out some interesting stunt casting to try to breathe a few more weeks out of it somehow. 


Masquerade inquiry for those who've gone

I would say that $200 ish per person is a very fair price for this experience. 


Broadway needs to open the doors earlier

I do enjoy shows with big lobbies with extra photo ops, props, signage, special drinks, extra food options, etc. Harry Potter has done this well.  Lion King has some of it.  I think many shows .. especially more headliners like Wicked or Hamilton ... could extract more money from our pockets by getting us into the pre-show area earlier for such extra attractions.

Answering myself ... found a quote that pretty much states it is done in June. Lindsay Heather Pearce said "until we close in June."

It keep chugging along to huge crowds.  I know it is popular in High Schools and regional/local productions, and the National tour just keeps selling tickets in droves.  It is indeed a funny show.  Wide appeal from all ages.  Think it is getting good word of mouth.

Gatsby is seen with an outstretched arm, in his suit ... all the spotlights are glowing bright white upon him, as he is staring off toward the Green light.


Rumor. New wicked musical in works.

More than 20 years after Wicked first opened, composer Stephen Schwartz says he’s still not finished with the world of Oz. 

He’s confirmed he’s working with longtime collaborator Winnie Holzman on a possible new musical based on L Frank Baum’s Oz books, this time focused on Princess Ozma. 

Schwartz says the idea has been in development for a couple of years and that Universal is “very interested,” adding that they’re now seeing

Gatsby opened it's US National Tour this weekend in Baltimore.  Sales were solid for the weekend shows, but LuckySeat was used to fill-in sluggish sales for the shows coming this week for the weekdays.  Think that is telling that the originating tour stop for the show didn't sell out. especially considering that Baltimore has a renown strong subscription base that sells most of the tickets via subscription.  Just not the buzz to sell tickets, I guess.
