They were fantastic seats, especially with the reorganization of the palace theater seating I think.I was really pleasantly surprised with this show. I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would’ve. Shoshana Bean, LJ Benet, and Ali Louis Bourzgui blew me away. and the special effects and the music were pretty nice as well."Go see stranger things for speci...

How many shows are you seeing? TKTS always gives me great seats and accommodates an aisle for me (I’m tall). It’s literally 30-50% off. If you’re only doing one show, go to the box office to avoid the line. If you’re doing multiple, if you bring your ticket back on a return to TKTS for another show, you skip the line for 7 days with your original ticket purchase.

Runs, riffs-they don't equal great performers. Even though yes- she blew me away as Elphaba. But reign it in"That's funny because I am flying from NYC to STL specifically to see Jessica, lol.

Take it with a grain of salt, but I asked the gentleman in the box office if the rumors were true, and he confirmed.

The odds seem increasingly more unlikely as time goes on, but I'm just not ready to throw in the towel yet.For my money, HK was by far the worst musical I saw this season. A stale, bland, completely ineffective book in search of a central plot or theme to follow, vocal performances that were certainly impressive, and actors having to work overtime to make terrible di...

I think tonight is Cynthia Erivo.

Even so, is there a way to tell that it's lost momentum when it's performing well at the box office? Is Suffs gaining momentum? Genuinely curious -Sincerely,Someone who is hoping for a miracle for Illinoise, lol

MadsonMelo said: "starlightlocamotion said: "Are we still assuming that BEST MUSICAL will either go to HK or SUFFS?"Yes? I think Outsiders has running out of gas, and Illinoise was never a factor.I'm REALLY rooting for ''Suffs''!"Please define "running out of gas." They just performed on the Kelly Clarkson Show, are doing over 100% capacity and grossing over $1 million a week. Suffs is doing 90% capacity, and has a lower average ticket price. I am not rooting against Suffs, I am just curious ...

Patti LuPone FANatic said: "Wow, she must have left a really good impression on the show's producers! For those who saw her, how was she?"The good impression was the highest sales for the show outside of a Holiday season, LOL.Joking aside, as a fan of trash television, she got me to purchase a ticket and I think she did very well.

TheatreFan4 said: "This is a show that I'm really going to enjoy listening to the cast recording of so I hope that comes sooner rather than later? Does anyone know if they recorded it yet? I figured the songs are pretty much put in place at this point and Sony Masterworks is a producer on it."3 of the main songs from the show have a version from 2022 on Apple Music/Spotify that I have been listening to on repeat.

Got to attend last night and I thoroughly enjoyed the show. I wasn’t counting the minutes to intermission. I was invested. Some catchy songs, some filler songs. Having a nephew with autism, maybe it hit me differently than many others. By the end of the snow, I was in my feels and I shed a tear or two. I saw others doing the same (the women in front of me was a teacher and has a grandson with autism, so she was particularly affected as well). I appreciate what they’re doing and the cast was g...

I often wonder how much streaming and DVR affect these numbers. I look at ratings for a few shows I watch, and some get a considerable bump in the days following their premier date.

I am 6'3 and always ask for an aisle so I can slouch down because I am so self-conscious. The side commentary from people also puts a damper on my evening as well.I try my best to accommodate. I went with my sister to Taylor Swift a few weeks ago. We had 5th row, and before the show started, I apologized to the girls behind me. They were lovely and told me not to worry. I sat down and missed about 1/3 of the show because I wanted to make sure they could see.It's not my fault for being tall, a...

I went to the final dress rehearsal last night (after seeing it in DC). They definitely made some positive changes to the set and costumes. Click Here To Toggle Spoiler ContentJennifer Simard singing toxic. Yes.Other standouts were Circus and the finale. They gave fans bracelets that began to light up at the end of the show (the same ones they do at Taylor and other concerts) and the cast came into the aisles and had a dance party with the audience members.I think the people it was intended f...

He absolutely did.When Hades is on the steps walking up to the office, he UNBUTTONS his suit and says "step into my office, there are papers to be signed."And in Act 2, the fates sing "and Hades laid his hand on you, and gave you everlasting life (while they all put their hands up and down Eurydice's body)."
