Is it too late for Spongebob? Dec 10
2016, 11:24:54 PM
I'd say that Harry Potter wouldn't be as large of competition as Frozen would be. Frozen and Spongebob are both based on beloved a children movie/show (although IMO spongebob was great even for adults). I don't think many potter fans would be deciding between Spongebob and Potter, but I can imagine lots of families deciding between Frozen or Spongebob.

Been out of the loop-time for one more show next week Dec 10
2016, 11:03:52 PM
I'll second Oh, Hello. I haven't seen it yet (two more weeks!) but John Mulaney is absolutely hysterical and it's been getting fantastic reviews! Plus it's a limited run (Jan 22) there's no chance of catching it in the spring.

Anyone know if Lisa the raccoon tweets hints about every guest? I'm also seeing it on the 28th and it would be fun to guess

Recommendations for final trip show? Dec 9

Oh, Hello might not necessarily be "better" than DEH or Comet, but it's a hilarious comedy, which might be a nice change from so many serious shows.

Best stage door story Nov 27
2016, 09:38:42 PM
Anyone want to share the best interaction/time they had a stage door? I love hearing about them instead of the ones where the actors were rude or the patrons were mean. :)

Also we were considering seeing another show when we were in New York since we're not really paying to see Hamilton. Which shows do you recommend? Like I said, we were looking at Aladdin, Matilda or School of Rock but other suggestions are okay. Both my kids are boys if that helps.
I'd say try to do Matilda. It's absolutely amazing, both young children and adults enjoy the show and the music is just amazing.

Matilda Changes/Differences May 10
2016, 11:39:40 PM
This sounds more like a self-selected topic to me. I can't imagine any teacher assigning this if you hadn't seen the show. Of course the wishy washiness of what class it's for is suspicious, too.
Why does it even matter? They just want to know the differences, it's not really important what class it's for or even if it's for a class at all. They just want to know.

Matilda Changes/Differences May 10
2016, 07:37:21 PM
Well Matilda's powers come in much later in the show than in the book, I saw the show and got so far in that I thought they weren't going to include them at all. Also, the ending is slightly different. The Russian mob comes after Matilda's dad and that is why they have to move, and while she's saying that she wants to stay, the mob comes in and tries to take her father, but she gives a very big speech on why he's not a bad guy (or something of that sort) and he lets them g

re: First Stage Door Experience May 8
2016, 11:24:21 PM
My first was Fun Home, and I remember it being the absolute best stagedoor expirience i've had. not many people were there, maybe 20, mostly teen girls around my age. All the kids came out and were adorable, and Emily Skeggs came out and was absolutely amazing, took time to say hello to everyone. Beth never came, but everyone else did!
My second was the next day after seeing Hamilton, which was a much different story. College boys had taken up all the room, and didn't even care

I'm going to NYC this summer and have a sunday matinee free. Which shows have the most rush tix, least amount of waiting, etc? I know it's hard to tell exactly but just in personal expiriences?

Good theater district hangout? May 6
2016, 02:44:22 PM
Schmackary's is a fun bakery that many of the actors on broadway go to themselves, I've never been so I'm not sure where it's located exactly but if the actors hang out there it can't be far.

Theatre Do and Don'ts Petition! May 6
2016, 01:37:27 PM
Rude people usually know that they're being rude. Everyone knows not to talk during a live show, and not to whip your phone out in the middle of it. It's not a matter of letting people know the rules, it's a matter of getting them to obey.

Help me decide May 6

If they have a good sense of humor, I recommend the Book of Mormon. It's a 2 hour show of straight laughing, especially if they've never heard it before.

Critique my husband's list of shows he's interested in seeing! May 6
2016, 08:59:12 AM
I'm going to recommend Fun Home as well. It was pretty emotional, but I absolutely loved it! Also Something Rotten, it was all happy and totally hilarious, and it's pretty rare for a musical not to have even one sad moment, but this one doesn't. Another favorite of mine is the Book of Mormon, it's the funniest show I've seen, and isn't very sad at all. Also be warned: Tuck Everlasting might not be open when you guys go. People are predicting that it might be closing be
