Profile for BroadwayBaby4

Have to thanks everyone on this board for giving a head’s up aboit tickets being put on sale close to the date. Could only find for one person, but got myself $40/part tickets in orchestra row M. I could not believe my luck.

Not sure if anyone’s asked yet, but of those of you who have already gone, how long before the show would you say you actually have to get there? The emails have been saying an hour before but that sounds a bit crazy to me.

Thanks to whomever said to check StubHub for tickets. Was able to get orchestra seats for half the price. Wasn't sure what to expect from this show, but it was hysterical. I could not stop laughing the entire time. The cast is absolutely fantastic.

I applaud anyone who was able to get tickets for more than one person. Was trying to get to tickets for three then two and even with the additional preview seats coming out I was unable to find anything under $155 per ticket which sadly was out of our price range. I was finally able to find $40 tickets when looking for a single person, which I took as a big win.

As frustrated as I was with buying tickets for London, this was a million times worse. Anyone else getting the endless spinning wheel?

Went today, got in around 8:50 and line was already long. Rush tickets were all sold out by the time I got to the front of the line. Might be because it was the first weekend but definitely did not expect such a line based on the above.

It's sad to think the issue got pushed so much that Sumayya Ali felt she had to post this, but I'm glad she did. This amazing, brilliant, talented cast deserve to have their story told in their own terms. Someone who was only there for a few weeks shouldn't be the one who gets the last say on their years of work.

Did anyone else get an email about a time change? Had tickets for Saturday at 8:30 and now it's moved to 9:30. Wasn't sure if this was just the one date or for others as well.

I went today hoping to see Tina but since she was in the truck and photographers were surrounding it, so you really couldn't see her unless you got to the front of the line. I think she left at around 11:30 and line was moving really slowly while she was there. They did give away a ton of sunglasses and were signing people up for chance to win tickets. Cheese fries were delicious, even if Tina didn't hand them to me.

ebizzle said: "@comet people just wondering how much Natasha's slippers were going for as I was able to pick them up a little while ago for $25. It seems they were just desperate to get rid of them since they severely overpricedthem before and no one wanted them"I'm sure they we're going for well over that price. I didn't even bother asking how much they were when I was in line at around 11:30, but the cheapest thing aside from shot glasses and pins was a $50 letter from Mary to Natasha.

The only thing I am confused about is if they did have a star waiting to come in, why didn't the announce it earlier? Maybe they wouldn't have needed Mandy if they had just announced the next Pierre and made some advanced sales that way.

Have tickets for September 2nd, so I'm at least happy I'll actually be able to see the show one more time. What a horrible way for this beautiful show to go out.

(and I realize he might NOT have, but I admit: I dont know, therefore I will not assume.) Skimble -- wait, so sticking up for someone isn't necessary when its an unknown/non-famous person? Ridiculous -- those people need support MORE. I understand why it was done, the true only unreasonable part is the people thinking they are righting a wro...

I'm really not sure how this whole thing got brought back to race (again) but especially after the Malloy tweets I think it is clear what happened. Great Comet is a business like any other. The job of every person there? To make the business money. Was casting Oak a good decision financially? The producers gave him 4/5 months of advanced ticket sales and saw no, it was not. Because of that they had to ask Brittain to go on leave so they could bring in Ingrid, a semi-star to pick up the slack ...

Anyone else clutching their ticket to a Mandy show hoping maybe Dave will come in and at least end the show himself? I just bought on stage tickets since my bf and I both wanted to see Mandy. He wanted me to immediately get money back, but i'm holding on to what little hope I have left that the show runs through Labor Day.

I don't think anything on twitter has ever made me this sad, and twittier is a hostile, angry place.Imagine how awful he must feel, not only is the show not doing well, but he's being called a racist for just trying to keep it afloat.

I agree with everyone that has been saying this is a disappointment for Oak. I saw him this weekend and thought he was amazing. On the other hand, Broadway is a business and if Great Comet isn't making enough money to survive, it doesn't matter how great Oak is because they need to do what's best for the business. I'm not sure if I'm the only one who wondered why they would have to bring in Ingrid right when Oak started, but looking at the situation I'm willing to bet sales were down before t...

The only one I ever went to was for She Loves Me. I'm not sure if it was just an odd case, but I went at around 11/12 to purchase the cd and didn't even get the wristband that guaranteed a seat. They did leave the doors open so I could hear and kind of see what was happening, but I didn't get into the room. I did still get my CD signed.

I agree that Ingrid can definitely bring in a new audience. I'm personally obsessed with Great Comet, but haven't been able to convince any of my friends to go. The second they found out about Ingrid, my whole group of friends was ready to buy tickets. Hoping this will be the case for many.
