SUFFS -- absences July 3 through July 7 Jun 9
2024, 06:27:12 PM
Hi
Planning to see Suffs at the beginning of July. My wife is totally adament that she wants to see the original cast.
I looked to see if there are any planned absences, but dont see any listed (or I may be looking in the wrong place)
Or course, anyone can come down with anything and miss a performance -- but I'd like to go on an evening (or afternoon) when I know everyone is (scheduled to be) in.
Can you help?
THANKS

Pair of tickets for sale to Hell's Kitchen 6/15/8pm Jun 5
2024, 09:04:59 AM
THANKS to everyone for their help.
I havent been able to sell these on Theatre yet -- I listed them at the price I paid, and so far, no luck.
I even went and checked StubHub (ugh) just now to see if I was asking too much for them, -- but (as expected) anything similar is MUCH more than what I am hoping to recover.
They are Center Orchestra, on the aisle, Row J (113 & 114). Saturday evening 6/15. And I paid $344 each for them.
Am I asking

I have a pair of tickets to HELL'S KITCHEN for June 15 at 8 PM. I cannot use them because my wife just had a hip replacement. (She's doing great, thanks).
ORCHESTRA J 113, 114, on the aisle
(I also have a pair for June 14 evening at STEREOPHONIC which I also need to find a new home for.)
I'd love to recover what I paid for them and keep them within the 'broadway community'-- and dont want to make money for Ticketmaster.&nbs

LuPita2 said: "No, it's really not. Judging by the popularity of Angels in America last year, I think people make time for brilliant theater. They will spend an entire day seeing an 8 hour show, or devote two days to it if it's worth it."
So here's a hint for you that you may find shocking, since you are obviously always able to do whatever you want. The rest of us aren't like that. Some people don't have the time (regardless

You should tell us (a) how this changes the results and (b) who was the big benefactor of the spamming. Seems like a fair punishment that fits the crime... (Sorry, Gilb

And maybe Be More Chill is holding on in the hopes that their numbers will boost when kids are on summer vacation. But real question: can anyone guess why King Kong hasn't pulled the plug? They must be atrophying money, no?"
I'll bet they think it would be embarrassing to close before their awards are received at the Tonys. "Thanks for the

If you could sit anywhere for this show -- where would you sit? Â
(And if your first choice is stage seating, could you please also include a second choice?)
THANKS as always -- I have come to rely on your advice.

2019, 10:19:47 AM
With the recent closing notices, I was thinking about how many 'hits' ('commercial' shows that recoup) actually occur on Broadway.

Hamilton & Waitress
2016-2017
Evan Hansen, Come From Away
2017-2018
Springsteen, Harry Potter, (My Fair Lady?), (Frozen -- perhaps to come), (Mean Girls -- perhaps to come)

I looked at the last week of each year, which is the holidays.

To push it back a few years, I remember paying $16.50 for a top price ticket to ANNIE in 1977. I thought it was outrageous (even before I endured the show)!

OMG -- I just went back and looked at the end of Act I. Now I'm more sure of the idea than ever. Now add to all that -- exactly how is the goose slaughtered? Yeah, that too.

It says we do too! The stage directions say, "Outside, the Banshees scream. It rises." I don't remember hearing offstage screams, but as others have said, there's a heck of a lot going on in that last minute."
The final page of the play reads (in part):

Which musical - 7 year old? Jan 26
2019, 05:22:33 PM
PHANTOM.
Looks, it's one of thegreatest showsever, right?
But more to the point, I was 5 when my parents took me to see "Pajama Game" (1955) -- I still remember the 'magic' of it. The dancing, the movement, 'all those people down there.'
If you want to start her out with the best, the costumes, the music, and yes, the wonder of the story -- you really cant go wrong.
And, I'll also second the recommendation about LION K

Merrily or the Ferryman? Jan 26
2019, 05:15:05 PM
FERRYMAN> Easy choice, especially with the ones you are already scheduled for. It's not a star driven piece, it's an ensemble presentation, so the cast specifics aren't critical. (I assume they'll have the Goose and the Rabbit totally ready to go....)
ENJOY.

It's Uncle Pat who talks about the Ferryman on the River Styx. His point being that The Ferryman cannot take a soul to rest (to either heaven or hell) until there is a body. So Uncle Pat inquires of the priest as to what happens to someone's soul in the time between death and the discovery of the body of the deceased.
The written play states specifically that Aunt Maggie Far Away hears Banshees in the final scene.

I too would have bet my after show cheesecake that there would be a murder -- and definitely after the proposal scene I was sure I knew who was going to die.
All credit to the writer, the director and the cast to tell such a wonderful tale.
