If you want to catch the fall ones that close before Christmas, the. November/Thanksgiving is when producers want you to come. I would say there are an inordinate number of shows closing unplanned before Christmas this year, the Swept Aways, Notebooks and Tammy Fayes of the season.

Has anyone sat front row? Looking at the 30 Under 35 tickets but am also seeing that there is a table center stage that I imagine will block a lot from those seats.

Suffs was my most listened to of the year, but I would put Here We Are up there as a favorite.

Ugh, I won last weekend but couldn’t make it back into the city in time so I had to give up the ticket. I can’t imagine I will win again.

I quite enjoyed Tom when I saw him. I was bummed Boykin was out the day I revisited the show, his understudy was fine, but certainly left something to be desired.

I would be shocked. It has nowhere near the popularity that Wicked has.

Lorna Luft as Madame Morrible on Broadway?

Wick3 said: "Maybe back during recession 2008-2009 but honestly Wicked doesn’t need to stunt cast at all. It seems to me they change mostly keep Elphaba/Glinda actors for only 1-2 years and then replacing them.
also I know of at least 2 friends who now wants to see the show on Broadway to learn what happens in part 2 (or at least know how it ends.)"
No offense, but Lorna Luft is not stunt casting.

Weirdly, it’s possible for me to have heard a song before without having seen the show. I didn’t like that they kept interrupting the momentum of the song.

I would be SHOCKED if this got a Best Afapted Screenplay nom. As someone who hasn’t see. The stage version, it was a long slow first act that I have to wait a year to pay off. I wished for more development of the friendship between the two of them. I thought Ariana was fantastic, but the character is so self-interested and unlikeable that when they were very suddenly best friends, I couldn’t buy that Glinda’s feelings were genuine. I hated that she lit the Elphaba pyre in th

Swept Away Seating Question

I was perfectly happy with my front row rush seats. The stage is high for the first half but I didn’t miss anything except when he is laying in bed in the opening. And if there were projections I didn’t see them, but I don’t feel like I missed anything there.

I’d argue that if you are qualifying it by which cast, then it probably isn’t the greatest play (and I say this as someone who did enjoy Stereophonic).

I don’t imagine an off day would change his entire character choice. I’m glad it worked for you, it just didn’t for me and that’s fine!

Mr.Liir said: "…you really get some really great acting work from JGJ, especially, and Stark Sands. JGJ, throughout, is really strong and I think absolutely deserves a tony nomination. He is also on stage from before the house opens to the end of the show with maybe 2 minutes off stage the entire time, but probably not even that."
I agree with most of what you say, but unfortunately JGJ was one of the performances that just didn’t work for me. His charac

SWEPT AWAY brilliant direction?

There was plenty I really loved about this show and an equal amount that didn’t work for me. It needed a different book writer and only two of the four main actors worked for me. The physical production and the staging I loved. The music I mostly really enjoyed; I wasn’t familiar with the Avett Brothers or any of their music beforehand so there were some songs that felt like they were just from their catalog and were shoehorned in.
I was certainly never bored as other peopl

Denzel Washington to return to Broadway in OTHELLO?

ErmengardeStopSniveling said: "Can’t link but Denzel did a video interview where heclaims he is a few films away from retiring. Among those are BLACK PANTHER 3, a possible Steve McQueen film, a film version of OTHELLO and a KING LEAR (idk if that’s screen or stage)."
It’s always hysterical to me when BWW just writes news stories based on posts in the message board, with no further details.
