Bumping this, want to hear if the new cast warrants one more view before closure.

...such a demure response.

Did not know this was happening again (distribution of free tests) - thank you, HG!

Well I guess then your book isn't the only book in the library?

A really toxic member of this board was just removed: celebrate that with a little less snark in the comments.  Don't mean to isolate any one member, god knows I've been guilty, just a suggestion to all of us.

Face In the Crowd reviews are out...ouch.  Looks like a show with a lot of promise, but it's going to take some time to get to where it wants to be.

Brody was not on during today's (Thursday) matinee. 

Having said that, I found the show  mediocre from beginning to end: I doubt his involvement would have altered my opinion.  

Please do!  This remains on my shortlist for next month.

Would love a revival of this...Sher's production remains so vivid in my head.  I consider it among the best productions I've ever seen.

Is it wrong to say that Sondheim's last musical was his best in 20 years?  I appreciate Passion, but I could watch Here We Are over and over in various iterations for forever.  I can't say that about any other Sondheim musical since Assassins (orig: 1990).

Thank you, Smaxie.  It'll be a struggle to not read the content on-line before then!

Got three left front mazz seats right off the aisle for the Friday after opening (about 100 dollars less per seat compared to the week before),  "Reasonable" at $247 (the seats immediately in front of mine jump up to 620, so I guess that's a deal 

B) dudebro/incel Joker fans who think musicals are gay"

...and who are probably closeted.

First preview is tomorrow...anyone going?  I'll be there Friday (and Saturday too if it's good)!

...ehhhhhh.  "Deserves" is a wee bit too strong of a word in my opinion.  He was fine.

I'm in the camp praying for a transfer.  Absolutely loved the Encores! presentation and it's been nearly 20 years since this was last on Broadway.  

I love Colbert...but he was incredibly stiff in the NY Phil Company concert presentation in a very small role.  I can't imagine he'd be a very good Herbie.

Within 10 minutes of the venue is the Odeon, Khe-Yo, and a little higher up is the exquisite Frenchette.
