We saw 8 shows over the last two weeks. Boop was easily in the top three of what we enjoyed the most. (Along with Operation Mincemeat and Maybe Happy Ending) For context, we also saw Buena Vista, Gypsy, DBH, Oh Mary, and Titanique (with Gypsy and Titanique being our least favorites). I had never seen anything Boop related in my life except her iconic image. The show made me want to learn more about her and her history. We thought Jasmine was outstanding along with the rest of the cast. Ainsle...

Thank you! Makes sense - especially the bargaining piece.

I know there is a Broadway weekly minimum salary. Does the amount change depending on if the show does 8 or 7 shows a week? For example, do the actors in Sweeney Todd have a lower weekly minimum since they only do 7 shows? It came up in a discussion tonight with a friend and I couldn’t find a definitive answer with a quick google search. I figured I’d take it to the many experts on AEA contracts that are here on the board!

Thank you for all the helpful responses. I didn’t realize Sutton was not officially over the title. I’ll see what we can do!

Well, I’m cursed. Our tickets we purchased in January 2020 eventually ended up on June 21 - the day before Hugh returned. We switched them to July 5th - the day before Sutton returns. Like others have said, I love understudies and think they are extremely talented. However, I’m not going to pay Hugh/Sutton prices for an understudy. All of that to ask: can I exchange tickets again? Can I do it online/phone so I don’t have to train in to the city? When Hugh was out we received an email notifyin...

We saw the 4th preview of this on Tuesday night. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and were impressed by the understudy for Delilah, Aubrey. Vicki Lewis, mask and all, was hilarious and a standout.We came into the show knowing nothing about the book - I had received the code and thought. "Why not?" The story was clever, easy to follow, and touching.As others have mentioned, there were some lighting issues - especially with the spots on Aubrey. We thought the music and lyrics were very good, alt...

I thought Ariana’s singing was superb, even though I didn’t like the actual numbers. Hoping she brings her vocals back to Broadway some day soon.

Wow. Bernadette sounded beautiful.

JBroadway - I understand your graphic but, unfortunately, the majority of the demands are ridiculous, and eye-roll-inducing. Many of those demands are not looking for equity - they come across as wanting to be the tall person AND standing on two boxes (which I hope all of us can see would be wrong for any group to do).I would call on someone like LMM (only because he signed the letter - not because he should be “expected” to lead a movement) to use his hard-earned wealth and talent to create ...

Good grief. Is it too much to ask people to research and educate themselves before protesting about something? Cancel culture at its finest. Don’t get me wrong - I’ll support informed and well thought out protests any day. This issue is not one of them.

I can’t even get on the website. Keeps saying url can’t be found. Tried it on three different computers.

We have many viruses without them. I hope they don’t wait for one. A greater grasp on what we’re dealing with and go from there? Yes.

Best Song from A Mega-Flop: Children of the WindBest Overall: Rose’s Turn I LOVE that you put a song from Rags on here! It’s one of my favorite scores. And agreed - Rose’s Turn hand’s down.

Unfortunately, Girl From the North Country on the last night it played. Not a fan. However, we did see Hamilton on Tuesday night which was outstanding. Loved the current cast (Monroe was better as Jefferson). Tixs to Woolf and Molly Brown (off bway of course) were cancelled.

Yes, she can do what she wants but I’m perplexed by people younger than 60 who smoke. With all that information out there? Mostly it infuriates me because it increases health care costs. That said - I thought she was delightful in BJ. And that’s all that matters to me as a paying ticket holder.

I’ve seen a lot of shows this summer and it actually seems to me audience behavior has been better. I am not one to be afraid to tell someone to put away their phone. Out of 25+ shows I only had to do it once (always nicely the first time :) ) Oklahoma’s preshow and second act announcementis are the best. Blunt and to the point. Saw it twice and not a phone to be seen. Now, the candy wrappers....ugh.
