Anyone have any luck with this? 6 shows at the top show discounts. Schmigadoon, up to 25% off. Lost Boys, up to 20% off. No shows have any discounts. I tried so many dates. Called Ticketmaster, directed them to their website, and they said there are no discounts available. WTF?"

The real WTF is why is anyone going to Ticketmaster to look for Broadway tickets. They're the official seller for exactly 1 Broadway show, Aladdin, and that's it. There's no reason to use them for any other show, and it's pretty safe to say that they will never have the lowest price available.

"JCM has potential - and we love him - but last night he could not find the moments and ran over joke after joke."

The lost joke that annoyed me the most was:

Any "ripped paper with something else underneath" design will always be more eye-catching than a standard one, so, if it was a choice between just the regular full-sized torn fishnets logo (which has been in place for a while) topped with the Playbill masthead, or this, I prefer this. It's ripping open the ordinary and traditional Playbill to find the seedy and unconventional Rocky Horror Show underneath.

Ugh, I thought he was almost as weak as Tituss (maybe weaker), and I haven’t seen anyone take as many liberties with the script/forget lines as much as he did. Really disappointing.

All remaining seats for the first 5 previews, February 11-15, are $59, including fees, no code required.

WINTERFAN26, which is valid from February 17 through the matinee on April 12, and also works for the 15th anniversary performance on March 19.

FYI, JCM uses he/him pronouns.

Oracle is reporting a rumor that John Cameron Mitchell will be Cole's replacement, which would be pretty amazing.

Extended through January 19.

I think Conrad Ricamora’s performance is underappreciated . He perfectly embodies gay self-loathing and acting out on others because of it, thus the yelling.

Just buy a partial view orchestra seat towards the back, $69 at the box office. House right is better than house left, but even L 17 is barely partial, and more than 1/2 the price of the seat next to it.

Oh Mary! has broken the Lyceum's 8-performance house record, grossing $1,054,998.00 for the week ending 7/21. It's the first time any show there has reached $1 million. Go, Cole!

Saw the 5p show today, and, for me, the show absolutely lost some of its downtown magic, mainly owing to the seemingly humorless theatregoers in my vicinity that were probably only there to see the current hot ticket. I'm guessing the 8:30p Saturday audience is more receptive, but the wet blankets around me this afternoon bummed me out.

Bad attempt at a joke, since The Lion King doesn't have any $300 tickets.

That doesn't make for NEARLY the dramatic statement though."

True, fact-based statements are usually super boring.

And the only seats in the mezzanine that are over $300 are in the front row. Every other seat there is way less than that, from $74-220.
