The Boston run showed up on www.LuckySeat.com yesterday, for $45/ticket.

Definitely try www.LuckySeat.com. You enter the lottery for the dates you want, and if you win you pay just $45 per ticket. You can choose whatever dates you want, but you don't get to pick your seat and you have to buy within 24-48 hours of winning, but I've always had great luck with them.

If you knew nothing about this play, wouldn't you expect a comedy based on this ad alone? There is maybe one brief scene with those three characters happy and smiling. https://ibb.co/sJw3rjwJ

Up here in Boston, both Black Swan (A.R.T.) and Paranormal Activity (Emerson Colonial) finish up in July, with the latter already billed as a pre-Broadway run. Maybe one or both could swoop in?

Perhaps he'll throw himself a celebratory motorcade through the streets of Dallas.

I think Jack Black and Daniel Radcliffe would be a great team.

Lane and Metcalf are always well worth seeing, but I'm just as excited about the choices for Biff and Happy. I would love to see Abbott/Charlie and Ahlers/Clock Twink on stage, though I would probably need binoculars at the Winter Garden.

Judging by his performance in Hamnet (don't miss it!), Jupe is perfect casting. The last 20 minutes are devastating, in large part due to him.

Unless I slipped into a brief coma, the dream ballet was cut completely on Saturday night. I know they're in previews, but I think this revival would have benefitted greatly from an out-of-town tryout. If you are charging Broadway prices you should be further along.

For starters, Cranston's twinkling eyes and amused smirk and Jean-Baptiste's contented smile. Does anything read as tragedy to you?

Why in heaven's name would they try to make All My Sons look like a comedy?Worse yet, could van Hove be staging it as a comedy?https://ibb.co/xSkDqYmF

Sounds like the most entertaining thing about this show is casting Quinn Titcomb as one of the Dollys.

I guess this means Schmigadoon doesn't have much chance to make it to New York?

I enjoyed the Hamilton reunion, but I was surprised and disappointed that Anthony Ramos didn't get a spotlight. He's one of the biggest names to emerge from that company!

Honestly, I had no idea that Criss is supposed to be playing an Asian robot in Maybe Happy Ending, until I saw someone online question which Asian actor would replace him when he departs the show later this year. Did they cast him because he's half Filipino? If you didn't know his background, I can't imagine you would identify him or his character as Asian in any way, and I can't imagine that it would -- or should -- matter in the least.

I know they're just trying to manufacture some excitement, but this whole "will he or won't he?" is just silly. You can see a lot more than Mr. Peck's face if you do a little Googling.

I think the funniest thing I've ever seen on stage was a Forbidden Broadway parody of Patti LuPone singing/mangling/garbling the title song from Anything Goes. The woman can sing, but she sure can't enunciate!

I was also lucky enough to be there on the night of the 24th, and couldn't agree more with your review, especially your rave about Diego Andres Rodriguez. If they extend in New York with a new Norma, or embark on a US tour, I hope he gets the lead. A star is born. I also just wanted to add a word about the audience. You hear so many horror stories about disrespectful and inconsiderate audiences these days, but last night's crowd was magnificent. The energy was electric (Joe's second-act entra...

Honestly, a lightweight, comedic musical like Joseph seems like a good fit for him, though I wish he'd chosen a better show. Maybe he's tired of Stephen Schwartz, but Pippin has a similar tone and better music, as does Godspell (until the end, of course).

They had better make it a musical, and they had better hire Charlie Stemp.
