Re: IN THE HEIGHTS (Off-Broadway) Encores! at NYCC - previews & reviews
Between posts about this and A Few Good Men, this board is saving me some serious money. Thanks all!
Re: Paddington Cast?
Seriously, just buy now. This show is going to print money (…and rightly so). In London in November and thought I could get a quick seat. Found one seat at 259 pounds.
Re: Jamie Lloyd Company Popup Shop?
CoffeeBreak said: "This is a good move. Not a lotof space in the theater for merch.This pop-up shop space is on brand, youthful andwill also be used for EVITA following ADO. EVITA will surely have interest. If there is indeed any outdoor performance, of any kind or capacity, this could serve that show well."Just going to say the merch in London was pretty basic. This isn’t like Adele or Celine in Vegas level (properly warranting a pop-up). That said, I’m sure they got a good deal for the comm...
Re: Paddington Cast?
I don’t think a cast announcement is a priority here. While both were great in London, I don’t see a particular need for them to transfer except to get their well deserved flowers. The production name is the selling point. It’s going to be the show of the season(s).
Re: IN THE HEIGHTS (off-Broadway) Encores! at NYCC - Previews & Reviews
Toi toi toi to the cast and crew! Would love this to be a major success and transfer. Best revival looks wide open this year (…well, ok, except Evita).
Re: Jamie Lloyd Company Popup Shop?
JSquared2 said: "Theatrefan2 said: "Made sense for shows like Back to the Future with huge merch potential beyond people seeing the show. Jamie Lloyd feels more niche and not exactly known for exciting artwork/visuals""No, the poster is entirely correct. Most fans of theater would have no idea who Jamie is but most A
Re: RENT - 30th Anniversary concert & livestream - live discussion & reviews
Thank you n2nbaby...I ended up watching it twice last night! I was practically in tears throughout! And yes, RunnyBabbit, you made the better decision, but nothing like watching a game at the Linc...even when we lose :-/
Re: RENT - 30th Anniversary concert & livestream - live discussion & reviews
Missed this last night watching my Birds 🦅 get decimated by the Cowboys. For those who watched, worth doing the live stream?
Re: Best Scene Changes
I think my favorite of all time is The House of the Dead at the Met. Curtain didn't even come down between the acts. Stunning and I pray for a revival soon: a true coup de théâtre.
Re: Julianne Moore in Sarah Ruhl's Faydra
It’s also a theater fan’s fever dream of perfection. I hope it translates to a broader audience, but it had me in tears and hysterics…sometimes at the same time.
Re: Julianne Moore in Sarah Ruhl's Faydra
I would see Moore in anything, but I just left a screening of the Debut. I have never wanted to stage door since meeting Cate 20 years ago. This performance is her absolute best. I’m just glad Glenn is in supporting…
Re: BILLY CRYSTAL: 860 Previews
^ Or, here me out, for an interesting story. I don't want another maudlin tale of people a specific celebrity met during his career. I also don't need TMZ stories, but I'd like earnestness.
Re: THIS WORLD OF TOMORROW transfering to Broadway in 2027 with Hanks and O’Hara
Am I misremembering, but I don't recall this being a hot ticket at the Shed?
Re: Tilda Swinton makes her New York stage debut
Thanks for the code! Pretty seamless process and lots of availability. Prices are, as expected, very high but some good deals to be found.
Re: Tilda Swinton makes her New York stage debut
Can't f**king wait! I hate when people say "Take all my money!" but that phrase is applicable here (...but please don't).

Re: Other Desert Cities reviews (Hudson) - Louis-Dreyfus, Harris, Janney, Keery, and Rabe
Times?? Keep refreshing but nothing there. So far I think the Post (of all groups…) and Time Out kind of nailed it, and I was a little surprised by the Guardian's enthusiasm. The Hollywood groups are not surprisingly generous. Anyone have a gift link for WSJ?
Re: OTHER DESERT CITIES 2026 Previews
What’s the moratorium, midnight? I can see these reviews going so many ways…mostly not good or a pass at best.
