I have a reserved Kennedy Center parking spot for Thursday (11/25).  I'm meeting my daughter and son-in-law there, so am considering taking Uber or Lyft if someone is interested in taking the parking space off my hands.  Cost was $20; I'll sell it for $15.  PM me.

Has anyone ever heard Josh Radnor sing?

Wonder who's playing the dentist?  That's always the most fun role.

 

Now that it's the end of August, I wonder if anyone here has heard anything about casting.

Thanks, Elegance101 -- I didn't realize this had a compressed schedule.  I guess that means that tickets might actually go on sale before the show is cast.

Little Shop of Horrors will be playing at the Kennedy Center in October.  The Kennedy Center website says that the performance will feature "a starry cast direct from Broadway."  Any ideas who that will be?

Would folks who have seen the show advise listening to the cast recording ahead of seeing the show?  I have found that for some shows listening in advance enhances the experience, whereas in others it gives away too much.

I agree with Marc.  Since Ken Ludwig lives in the DC area and has past involvement with Signature (his Fox on the Fairway premiered there), I wouldn't be surprised if he had a hand in the production as well.

Now that previews are done, I wonder if anything has changed with the cast signing, taking pictures, etc.

Looking for a nice brunch before a Saturday matinee.  So far, narrowed to Maison Kayser, 441/2, or 44&X, but open to other possibilities.

Thanks.

My favorites are Marseilles and Trattoria Trecolori.

Hank Steuver in the Washington Post did not think too highly of this. https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/tv/superior-donuts-doesnt-come-close-to-filling-the-diversity-hole-in-cbss-schedule/2017/01/31/70de67d4-e70e-11e6-80c2-30e57e57e05d_story.html?utm_term=.91cc416cc5e7

The reports seem pretty clear that Josh is only on through July 2. It does seem strange that with tickets now on sale through September it is unclear who will take the role of Pierre -- Dave, Scott, or some new person.

Saw this in London in June -- did not stop laughing the entire show.  

I thought most lead contracts were typically for a year, subject to the show remaining open, of course.  If that's the case, Groban is probably signed through October.  Now that reviews are out and positive, it shouldn't be long before tickets are on sale past April.

Fair enough -- taste tends toward more modern and quirky musicals, less toward traditional.  Love In the Heights, Little Shop, Fun Home, Avenue Q.  Love Sondheim; ALW not so much.

Informed advice, please.

For several years we've used Priceline.  If you stick to 3 stars or better you should be fine -- we have never gotten a bad hotel in doing this for about 12 years straight, and the price has always been 1/2 to 2/3 what you would pay otherwise -- typically $140 to $175 per night.

Just arrived in NY for tonight's performance and have not heard anything.
