Profile for Shubert Alley Cat

Saw the Sun matinee.  Muppets were best part with some decent one-liners.  But the magic is pretty boilerplate and boring.

Special guest was Marisha Wallace.  I felt I was the only one there who knew who she was and the special guest participates in a really awkward and boring way.  I felt second-hand embarrassment for her.

This show is not Bway caliber.  I was more wowed by the magic in the current lame Beauty and the Beast tour I saw last week back hom

Got hooked on the theater thing with the mega-musical tours in the early ‘90s when I was in high school - CATS, LES MIZ, and PHANTOM.  I also remember just loving the tour of CRAZY FOR YOU and HELLO DOLLY with Carol Channing.

My first shows in NYC were in summer 1995 - graduation gift.  The shows we saw were SUNSET BLVD (with Glenn Close), BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, MISS SAIGON, the Harold Prince SHOWBOAT (from the last row of the mezz in the Gershwin), and LES MIZ. &nb

I also noticed the website shows dates after Oct 19 as “sold out.”  Those dates have not been sold yet; maybe the sit

It seems a lot more reliable than it had been in the past."

Thank you.  I did not know I could give my number to the box office.  So I missed out on points to JUST IN TI

Also ditto to the above poster - probably one of the more jazzy audiences I have been in recently. The energy in the theatre was nuts tonight. It was really fun and the show and score really soarin an Off-Broadway house of this size. I sat clos

I just looked at rates at the place I stayed last Fallon the Upper West Side (Riverside Towers Hotel). That weekend they have a minimum 3 night stay, I guess because Halloween is the Friday? It has some very small inexpensive rooms okfor a single person on a budget,was completely renovated in w023/24, two blocks from Zabar's overlooking the river.
