DiegoKoch said: "Unfortunately this has lost the spark it had off broadway. The Broadway production looks identical to what was at playwrights horizons, so I don’t really understand why they didn’t just do a direct transfer. I know it was only the fourth preview, people were flubbing lines, the pacing is totally off, the build to the climax was non existent. The major reveal in act 2 was a dud. It’s still a strong play, but it’s mostlypolitical debate instead of the emotionality and three dim...

I was told that this is two and a half hours long with no intermission. Can anyone confirm or deny?

(And I say that without commentary re: 'right' or 'wrong'.)If I were a casting director, and these videos were an audition, I would definitely not hire an actor who did not project a contextual element in their performance."Oh look.

I don’t why you people are convinced that the show cannot run without a star. Did Jersey Boys have a star? Not really, and yet it was appealing to essentially the same demographic.

Thanks, Broadway World for never disappointing. This thread has devolved to everything I knew it would when I saw the subject line.

I saw the U.S. tour when it played the Tilles Center on Long Island a few years ago. To this day, it remains the most God-awful piece of trash I have ever had the displeasure of sitting through, anywhere. Not a single redeeming quality. The only reason I didn’t flee at intermission is because my partner wanted to stay and he had the car keys. I understand they have a new creative team or something but unless they have overhauled this in every way from top to bottom, I can’t imagine it will be...

I just had the worst 20 minutes of my theatre going lifetime at this show. Happened to look at their ticketing site. They had an aisle seat in the mezz, up in the rafters, for $78.00. I figured since it’s a two level set, it would be okay. Arrived at my seat, and two giants are sitting directly in front of me. They were also apparently boyfriends, and they kept scrunching their heads together, rendering most of the stage invisible. The three seats directly next to me remained empty and I figu...

If this low life obese orange piece of garbage demolishes the Kennedy Center, he should be thrown in jail. Of course, that would be only one of the pig’s multiple crimes. No matter what, may that evil trash rot in hell.
