Thank you. Had booked for Sat matinee this weekend without checking. (Orchestra BB 2&4 - hope they are ok?)Over from London on vacation and knew CE had very few absences for every show over here in the UK.

I'd also like to throw out:--Avenue Q (also genius) --The Book of Mormon (I'm pretty tired of it now, but when the jokes were fresh, they were really excellent!) --Gentleman's Guide (funny in a different way - more clever and witty than outright hilarious) --Spamalot (gotta love that Jew song) --Xanadu (laughed myself silly!) --[title of show] (not as funny as the others on the list, but still very funny)I'd also like give a...
I know I've left this very late but will be in NYC and DC (visiting from London) for 11 days from 2nd Sept. I usually just get tickets from TKTS in person. Does anyone have advice or tips? Discounts/ticket sites etc. On my wish list are Color Purple, Waitress, The Humans, Fiddler, Something Rotten, Fun Home, Cagney but am open to recommendations. I realise some of the shows will be impossible to get. Thanks in advance.

If I buy the digital record from Broadway Records, will my iPad be able to download and play the album? I already checked iTunes, and didn't see it there. Thanks!I downloaded from iTunes "

The song doesn't work unless you actually believe you're listening to the greatest star. Is Sheridan the greatest star?Saw this for the second time last Saturday and it is definitely ready for Press Night AND The Savoy.SS is superb all round, singing like a dream. She starts Greatest Star singing to co...
At first preview she seemed to under sing everything until Don't Rain... But then, boy did she belt! I agree that Greatest Star should be her convincing us, so hope she does exactly that tomorrow. She does have a powerful voice so I'm sure it'll be spot on by press night.
I saw the first preview. And am returning tomorrow matinee. It is an utter joy! SS is perfect, no trace of Barbra, making the role fresh. She had us in the pal of her hand. MCF is tiny so a chorus line of 8 fills it. Special mention to Marilyn Cutts too (as Mrs Brice).
It will be interesting to see if Cynthia Erivo gets a nod for Color Purple. If she had been eligible for an Olivier, I think she would have been a safe bet.
