Still hoping he brings it to Los Angeles after. It only makes sense....right? 

I thought it was just ok. If you are not looking at the right spot at the right time, you miss some of the scares. Then when you hear half the audience screaming- you are looking around but it's too late. Unlike a movie where they can zoom in exactly where you need to look. Subtle creeps are not meant for the stage. 

It would be great to get a Los Angeles out of town tryout so the community can experience this.

I'm happy with Oh, Mary being included with my subscription. I agree with you however, there seems to be something missing. I would love to know what show(s) you would consider a wow. 

Towards the end a lot of comps were given out (I had a friend receive some). Now that I think of it, I guess that technically qualifies as being sold out.... as there are butts in the seats?

Liza's instagram account reports that it is sold out. Anyone who has been watching ticket sales knows that is not entirely true: https://www.instagram.com/p/DWASj9fD6Jp/

Someone made a comparison of about 6 signed books. All have the word Love then Liza THEN a happy face drawn in. It seems crazy that she would spend the time to add love and doodle a happy face to that many books. https://ibb.co/1GQCpLcx

Yes, Oh Mary is a tricky addition to any tour stop. Though...Avenue Q played at the Ahmanson. I'll be mad if they make Oh Mary a add on- as every year I ask myself why I renew my subscription. 

The Ahmanson subscriber base would love Just In Time. When Jersey Boys first played there, it was the talk of the town. 

When the Pantages had the Hamilton sit down, they rented the Dolby Theatre down the street to have their season. The Ahmanson and Pantages don't work together (besides sometimes sharing mailing lists) 

Does anyone have any insights why this is playing 5 day engagements? I'm a bit surprised by that. I hope the LA stop in a bit longer...

Just got home from the Bowl from Saturday's show. It was great, and yes Gad was in. He made a Covid joke and a Stamos joke. I dunno if he was at full vocal capacity, but could sell it and the audience was shocked to see him (a great hidden entrance behind feathers) and loved him.

One advantage is the Hollywood Bowl has been designed for sound first and foremost, to support the philharmonic. While it can sometime be annoying to get in and out of the bowl, once you're in it- the sound is amazing. 

Saw the tour in LA and was so happy to see such a strong production in magnificent shape. My only gripe, were the projections. With the set as it is, with the large rectangle box in the middle, it is impossible to see many of the projections from different parts of the orchestra. Many people around me were complaining each time a new projection appeared. 

I am so impressed by the amount of love and care that is put into this tour. I assume it's the producers doing the work?

The worst season I've seen. I believe I'll be canceling my subscription. To follow 2:22 A Ghost Story with Paranormal Activity is so odd. Also, Mama Mia was at the Pantages just a few years ago.

I could have sworn that &Juliet was part of this season? I guess I'll just have to buy a single ticket for next.

Unfortunately, I just got off the phone with them. They were very nice, but their hands are tied. I will have the option of trading my show as always, but I doubt my good seats will be a possibility. Additionally, I have a sneaking suspicion these seats will cost more than my subscriber trade value.
