One of my goals in life is to see every single broadway musical that opens. (starting with the 2004-2005 season) The second is to live in manhattan with a hot husband. Dreams will come true.

I am a good looking, fun guy who loves theater and I am always looking for new friends to go out to dinner and a show with. PM me if you ever want to hang out because a guy can never have too many friends.

Why wasn’t Rebecca Luker nominated for her Maria in The Sound of Music?

Jun 23, 2026 — 4:34:09 PM

"I Have Confidence" and "Something Good" were both in the 1998 revival. "How Can Love Survive" and "No Way to Stop It" were also included in the 1998 revival. "An Ordinary Couple," unfortunately, was cut.It will be interesting to see how they treat this Lincoln Center revival. I hope they include all songs!

New Billy Crystal one man show inspired by loss of his home in California wildfires to premiere at the Shubert in October

"I vaguely remember his post covid Mr. Saturday night show cheapest mezzanine tickets were selling for way over $100 during presale. Later of course the prices corrected themselves according to the demand, but yeah, there were no cheap options at first for his show."You are correct. When tickets first went on sale, nearly the entire mezz was $149 or $199. It was completely insane and tickets did not move at all at that price point. I ended up seeing it in early previews on tdf in the front mezz.

"Assuming it's not a misprint, is the average ticket price for Celebrity Autobiography of $15.22 a new record low?"The Blonde in the Thunderbird, which ran for three weeks in summer 2005, had an average ticket price of $11.02 in its second week.

CHESS (2025 Broadway Revival) Reviews

May 5, 2026 — 6:45:11 PM

She was scheduled to perform in tonight’s show up until 5:15pm this afternoon. I was supposed to attend tonight’s performance, but opted to get a refund instead. This would have been my fourth time seeing the show.

Beaches reviews

"They did average over 1,000 people per performance last week (8,345 total). But that was partially high due to opening night being nearly sold out."I was there opening night with a friend. We were in the center rear mezz and had an entire row to ourselves, as did the two ladies in the row in front of us. I'd say the front and rear mezzanine combined was about 2/3 full, and that might be generous. It was definitely not even close to being sold out on opening night, which was kind of sad to wi...

I saw the ballet sequence at the first preview and was very sad to hear it had been cut less than a week later. Glad it was preserved here. Really beautiful.

CHESS 2025 Broadway Cast Recording Thread

Apr 3, 2026 — 2:32:01 PM

When I saw the show for a second time with my best friend since second grade, during the final moments of "Anthem," she grabbed my arm and we both had this emotional wave come over us. It was one of those moments that really hits hard and perfectly encapsulates the incredible power of live theater. It's fascinating that people seem to be going to Chess to see Lea Michele and Aaron Tveit, but are leaving Chess talking about how wonderful Nicholas Christopher is.

CHESS 2025 Broadway Cast Recording Thread

In a show full of brilliant standout moments, "Anthem" is probably the best one of them all. I have a feeling I'm going to be listening to this recording quite often.

RAGTIME 2025 Reviews

Mar 26, 2026 — 3:26:37 PM

Whoopi has dyslexia. She has spoken about it many times on The View. She often fumbles with celebrity names as she reads them on the teleprompter every week, however she always means well. And the way she praised the show was so great to hear. I can't wait to see it again soon!

CHESS (2025 Broadway Revival) Reviews

Mar 20, 2026 — 11:57:02 AM

Lena Hall was VERY over the top with riffs and vocal gymnastics during the 2022 benefit concert at the Broadhurst (as was Solea). If she is the replacement, I hope she tones it down.It'll be interesting to see if this sells at all without Lea Michele.

"Should we expect Kara Young to receive a Best Featured Actress in a Play nomination for the fifth year in a row? Or even a third consecutive win?"This was my very first thought. The nomination streak can now continue!

Bridges of Madison County Reunion Concert

Dec 16, 2025 — 1:14:04 PM

I was there last night as well. Saw it twice on Broadway back in 2014 and LOVED it both times. Last night was magical. Kelli and Steven sounded glorious. How is it possible that Kelli has maintained her voice so incredibly over the past 21 years when I was first introduced to her on a Broadway stage? There really are no words to describe how outstanding "Almost Real" was. She deserves to have at least three Tony awards by now. I love Jason Robert Brown's Tony-award winning score so much, feel...

CHESS Previews

Oct 16, 2025 — 12:53:01 PM

Just to reiterate what some have said, Lea's "American Idol riffing" last night was definitely minimal and did not take away from the impact of the songs. She sounded great. When I saw the benefit with Lena Hall and Solea Pfeiffer, I thought both of them riffed a bit too excessively. Admittedly, I am partial to Judy Kuhn's perfection on the OBCR.Nicholas Christopher was really the star last night though. I was truly blown away at how incredible he was. Anthem was flawless.I had such a blast l...

Cats: The Jellicle Ball to Broadway

Oct 14, 2025 — 12:33:32 PM

"Use the pre-sale code see what tickets are available, then click "remove" on the left hand side of your screen. You can still see the available tickets and purchase. In my case the tickets would have been $195 with the code but were $165 without."Thank you so much for this information. I bought three tickets and this tip saved me $60. Odd that the prices are different with and without the code.

Chicago The Musical Appreciation Thread

Sep 26, 2025 — 6:58:39 PM

I got a single rush ticket for last night's performance about 10 minutes before curtain. Orchestra, Row H, seat 12. Did not have a problem at the box office at all. Mira, despite some hesitancy in her dancing, won me over by the end. I've seen Chicago 8 times post-pandemic and 23 times overall and it rarely disappoints. I'm glad that they continue to stunt cast Roxie to give us New Yorkers a reason to return. And at $49 a pop, it's always worth it.

Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 8/17/25

Aug 19, 2025 — 6:56:44 PM

"Jeff Ross' show ticket price is the lowest i have ever seen......"This seems like a good time for me to bring up one of my biggest joys in life - The Blonde in the Thunderbird - which ran from July 8, 2005 through July 23, 2005. I attended the first preview via tdf and was probably the only person in the audience who paid (tdf was probably around $40 at the time).For the three weeks that this show ran, the average ticket prices were $19.49, $11.02 and $11.86.
