Broadway prices and uncomfortable seats  Apr 20 2023, 10:59:04 PM

As a fat person myself, I find myself looking for aisle seats when I purchase tickets, with hopefully a friend as my neighbor. However, in instances where I win a lottery seat or buy from TKTS, I selfishly hope and pray that the seats next to me go unclaimed or unpurchased. 

Last month, I left at intermission of Funny Girl because I could tell my size was making my neighbors uncomfortable. The seats in the balcony of the August Wilson are extremely tight.

COVID performance cancellation  Dec 29 2021, 09:18:27 PM

DearTheodosia said: "I was also flying in from OKC for this week, but cancelled when I saw all of my shows being cancelled. Now i see that all of my shows (Hadestown, Moulin Rouge, Freestyle Love Supreme, Come from Away, and Company) seem like they are happening or will happen this week. I'm feeling pretty sad about my decision now. I say just go for it."

I am sorry that happened to you. But happy to see another OKC area person on here! Something in the water.&nb

Miles2Go2 said: "Wow! I have plans to fly in from OKC next week too! Been having sinus issues again this week so getting PCR test tomorrow. If that comes back giving me the all clear then I plan to go. Of course, that could change but since my hotel reservation is non-refundable, I’ll likely go unless I end up with Covid beforehand. I plan to see Company and Caroline, or Change (plus Assassins), too."

 

Maybe we're on the same flight! I am jealo

Something tells me the critics who penned the negative reviews aren't the target audience for this show. 


CHICKEN & BISCUITS Previews  Oct 8 2021, 04:54:48 AM

I would really love to see this show, but will be in town a few days after it closes. Any chance we may get an extension?

re: What's a Charm Song?  Aug 30 2020, 03:18:32 PM

I am currently reading "Song of Spider-Man" by Glen Berger. In it, he discusses how he gave Bono a sixty song compilation of Broadway music.

"So David had the office burn a four-CD compilation. Sixty songs from the last sixty years of musical theatre, divided into the strictest of categories. There were exposition songs, eleven o'clock numbers, Act One closers, charm songs, anti-charm songs, show-stoppers, character-driven songs, torch songs -- a

Do You Have a Famous Look-Alike?  Jul 16 2020, 12:08:55 PM

I look enough like Jonah Hill that James Franco did a double-take when we were both in the audience of Lobby Hero. 

I'm sure that wasn't the reason, but I am told I look like Jonah Hill maybe once a week.

Exchanged my July two tickets to a single April 24th ticket. I hope I get the refund. I'd love to have that $500 back, lol.


The Music Man should do the right thing and postpone/cancel the run now  Jun 23 2020, 05:11:01 PM

STRANGE. 

 

I originally had tickets for Saturday December 5th. Now mine are showing for July 3rd, 2021. 


Phase 3- Broadway Reopens?  Jun 20 2020, 06:17:56 PM

Why so catty? Unnecessary, they asked a question about Broadway reopening on a Broadway board.

 

Users like you are why these boards no longer thrive as they once did.  


DEAR EVAN HANSEN Film In The Works  Jun 11 2020, 04:26:40 PM

I would only be interested in Rachel Bay Jones reprising her role for the film.


Susan Egan  Jun 9 2020, 02:26:44 PM

My introduction to her was Hercules. 

 

"I Won't Say (I'm in Love)" has become a standard for any Disney fan and it's, personally, one of my favorite "If I Loved You" songs.

Too bad the sh-- hit the floor on that one. 


New Broadway Book: "Flop Musicals of the Twenty-First Century"  Jun 1 2020, 03:38:52 PM

 Can only say I've seen half of one. I saw Escape to Margaritaville at the Chicago tryout. Two hours before curtain, while waiting for my friend, I grabbed a table and a margarita pitcher for us at a restaurant. She showed up and immediately announced she was pregnant (and therefore, couldn't drink the margaritas.) I was never wasteful person, so I finished the pitcher and went to the show. I posted on instagram about having margaritas before the show, Broadway in Chicago comment
