I saw the matinee yesterday and agree with the poster that said that Robyn Hurder is fantastic. I have seen the show about 10 times over the years including with the original cast and I think Robyn is equal or better than Bebe. She brought tremendous energy and skill to the performance. Kate Baldwin is also great and it's a treat to see both of them together. If you get a chance to see it while they are both still in it, I would highly recommend it.

Does anyone know if Megan is still on a limited performance schedule or if she is in all 8 shows a week. I realize she is leaving in 3 weeks but I wanted to catch her before she goes. If she is missing certain scheduled performances, please let me know. Thank you.

Has anyone gotten the VIP tickets and attended the meet and greet?I am thinking of getting these tickets and wondering if they take pictures with you, sign the playbill and how much time you have to spend with them. I'm sure it must be brief but just curious. Please let me know and I appreciate it. I saw the show and loved it and I am thinking of going back. Thank you.

I saw the matinee today and really enjoyed it. In reading this thread, I thought that the people who attended the first preview were pretty harsh on the show. I know it's a chat board and everyone has an opinion, but some of these seem very mean spirited. Almost like they hope it fails. As a theatre lover, I am always rooting for a hit or at least a fun time. I had a fun time, especially in the first act. I thought the lead Grant Gustin was great. I did not know who he was and thought he was ...

Was anyone else there at today's matinee? Liev Schreiber came on and started the show which is a monologue to the congregation. After a couple of minutes he said "excuse me ladies and gentlemen but I need a minute" and left the stage. The house lights came up and they first announced there would be a slight delay and then a few minutes later they announced that Liev was sick and the understudy would go on in 10 minutes.I got a refund at the box office because I am local and can go back to see...

I agree with the last post. I saw the show with my daughter a couple of weeks ago when Mendez was out. We are big broadway fans and have seem many shows. We saw Lindsay in Wicked as well as other shows. Her understudy was fine, but we both kept thinking how great she would have been in the role. If we had known in advance, we would have picked another sate.. But we did not ask for a refund because we were there already and my daughter was leaving town soon after. And if we picked another show...

I loved Memphis and saw it a couple of times with Adam Pascal who could sing the role much better than Chad. I found it moving and liked the music a lot.I know this is a chat board for people's opinions but I don't understand why there are so many negative responses to a post that is saying something postive about a show. Considering we are all supposed to be theatre lovers, it is still suprising to me that so many on this board are snarky and negative. Is it jealosy? Are many on this board p...

I have been going to the flea market for many years. It was fine today, but I thought it was odd that the music man table didn't have any merchandise from the show. I was there until about 12:30. Did they put anything out later on? I did see the signed jackets but not signed playbills or posters.. I see that Sutton Foster was there for a time. Did she take photos with fans?Thanks for any intel.

How come Abby Mueller was not in the SIX performance?

Why is the camera work so bad. We keep seeing people's heads and shots from weird angles. Side shots and that crazy close up during A Strange Loop. Just show us the performances from the front of the stage please.

Everyone was in tonight! I almost forgot how great Patrick Page was since I haven't seen it for so long. And seeing Andre was a real treat. Go see if before he leaves if you can.

does anyone know if Andre will be back tomorrow night(Wed). The only reason I got tickets was to see him again before he leaves. If not, do you think I can get a refund? Thank you

I saw the matinee yesterday and didn't realize that Fishburne was going to be out. I should have gotten a refund but figured I would give it a shot with Ray Anthony Thomas. He had to call for a line twice at the beginning of the first act. It was weird because all of a sudden he said 'line' and someone who appeared to be in the front row gave him the line. Then a few sentences later he asked for a line again. I have been going to the theatre for 45 years (since I was a teen) and have never he...

I just bought tickets for the matinee for Company tomorrow and now I see that Pattie is out tonight. Telecharge customer service closes at 8pm. Does anyone know if I will be able to get a refund if I call tomorrow morning? I really want to see Pattie and assume that if she is out tonight, she will probably miss tomorrow as well. I appreciate any info you can provide. Thank you.

Does anyone know which performances Adrienne Warren in not doing and when her alternate goes on?Thanks!

I was there today. Running time a little under 2 hours. It will go longer tomorrow because they pick the winners and give the presentations. Seth was great as always. His deconstructions are a highlight every year. Don't miss the opening number. It was my favorite. I was been going to this for over 20 years but I didn't think this was one of the better ones. My highlights:Andre De Shields doing the moment of silenceThe Great Society singing 'Eyes on the prize'Hamilton and Frozen dance routine...

Is the first row of the Nedelander Theatre too close for her show? Is the stage high?Also, does anyone know if and when the premium pricing goes back to normal pricing if they aren't sold?It seems like there are a lot of $249 premium seats still available and the regular price is $167.Thanks.

She does not have an agent or manager yet. Thank you all for your responses.

My daughter is very interested in auditioning for the role of Emma in the Prom movie. The press release says they are doing a nationwide search. Does anyone have an idea how she would find out more information on auditioning for the role? I appreciate any feedback. Thank you. https://www.theatermania.com/new-york-city-theater/news/meryl-streep-james-corden-ariana-grande-the-prom_89134.html

I was wondering what featured actors in plays and musicals make on bway. I think the equity minimum is around $2,000 a week, but I am curious if it is much higher for features- do they make $5-10K a week. Obviously it would depend if they are a draw, but in most cases I would think that featured performers are not well known outside the bway community. For example, what do you think the featured performers in Dear Evan Hansen or Kiss Me Kate make. Thanks in advance for any insight.
