"Talk is he’s very generous and he only chooses to perform to allow his understudies to have a break. He’s basically their standby."If that's true, what a cool thing to do!

rosscoe(au) said: "Have we forgiven him."Forgiven him for what?

everythingtaboo said: "Like I said in the casting thread, he could barely handle standing and singing eight times a week 20 years ago, I did not have high hopes he could be maintain such an energetic role. I hate to be right. Hoping he gets better as he goes along."You "hate to be right"?? after one show? Geez, give the guy a break. I doubt anyone is perfect after one show. Stepping into a hugely successful and long running show can be daunting for anyone. Give him a chance to get settled in....

everythingtaboo said: "I love Boy George, I do, but I really can't imagine him having the physical or verbal stamina to do this 8 times a week. He barely could muster if to show up to Taboo, and he basically just had to stand there and sing a few songs."I strongly disagree. I recently saw him live at the Hollywood Bowl and he sounded fantastic - and way too much ad-libbing for it to be a lipsynched. And because his run in Moulin Rouge will be relatively short, you can bet he will put everythi...

QueenAlice said: "The only person I can think of who might replace, would be right for the role and would sell tickets the way Lea Michele would is Sara Bareillas"Not unless Fanny is supposed to be in her 40's...lol

bwayphreak234 said: "I have to say that I underestimated Lea Michele's box office power when she was first announced. I thought the first few weeks of her run would do well and then it would taper off... Glad to have been proven wrong. The stakes were high as hell when Michele went into this production. There was no room for her to be anything but an absolute revelation in the role, and it sounds like she has more than delivered. I look forward to seeing her for myself next weekend."I thought...

barcelona20 said: "In an article from Variety today profiling Hugh Jackman, it said"He even knows the name of one of his fans (Annette), who has seen “The Music Man” 115 times, casually bringing her up in conversation as if she’s a member of his inner circle."115 times!?! At $200/ticket that would be $23,000!"Only $5750.00 if she rushed! LOL :)

You're correct on the cesspool of ridiculousness of course, which is why the biggest lie came from babykitty_00:"Most everyone on here are kind"Yeah, it's a nest of vipers, allycp. Might as well find out now. I do hope you get to see the show and don't let this lot ruin the experience for you. If you do stick around, there's an Ignore function you may find useful to avoid the mean ones."Wow, what sad, miserable person you must be to have such negative perspective. Most people on here ARE kind...

And if my simple comment while perhaps mildly snarky, was truly that devastating, then definitely stay away from any threads about Funny Girl."Great, we're on the same page! You acknowledge that your comment was simple and snarky. Maybe if you don't have anything nice to say, just keep scrolling. But there is no need to make...

allycp said: "I actually had read almost the entire thread. But I also know that there are factors such as different seasons, actors being out, Tony awards, etc. that change the experience with the rush line. Other than one person who was kind enough to post a very detailed experience, most of the recent posts were from when Hugh was off with Covid. I wanted to know if anything had really changed. One experience is great but I was trying to get another example or two for what it is currently ...

frogs_fan85 said: "My girlfriend stopped by the box office around 5:40pm and was able to get rush for the 7pm show. We got Orchestra J 2-4. I'm figuring that late in the day they were willing to give out whatever inventory was left."I'm guessing tickets are pretty easy to get when Hugh is out. Just like Boy From Oz, he's the draw and I can't see the show going much longer, if at all, once he's done. It didn't win any Tony's so that will hurt it's longevity past Hugh.

BoringBoredBoard40 said: "I would imagine even with partial view stamped these are getting flipped.They should do what they did for An Evening With Hugh Jackman where the rush tickets came with a wristband, if you didnt have both the wristband and the ticket you didnt get in"Oh they are 100% getting flipped. When I rushed about a month ago, I was 16th in line at 6:30 am on a Friday and there were three people (2 older men and an older woman) who were at different places in the line, but havin...

MadsonMelo said: "I got in line at 8 am, there were 33 people already. When I was About to buy rush, they announced that there no more to the evening performance. I got B13 partial view, but according to one photo and comment from View from My Seat, its a fine ticket. Am I going to miss much?"I saw it 2 weeks ago and I had seat B16. It was fantastic!! The only "partial view" issue was that you couldn't see any of the entrances from the right side of the stage, or when any of the action was ha...

Dollypop said: "Perhaps this is Off-Topic but...I was having a quick bite to eat at Juniors and was sitting at the bar. A very nice lady sat beside me and we started a friendly conversation while we ate. She was from Chicago and had flown in to see a few shows before heading home tomorrow. She told me she'd seen WICKED last night and had enjoyed it and had seen the matinee of THE WORLD'S GREATEST SHOWMAN this afternoon and she raved about it. I asked her if that was the actual title of the sh...

DiscoCrows said: "Anyone been this week? With spring break and the good weather I assume it has been madness. I was considering going whilst visiting the city but just decided I’d rather wait it out and try to catch the show this summer/fall, lol…"I rushed on Friday morning 3/18. I arrived at 6:30 AM and there were 15 people in front of me. The first group in line said they got there at 5:10 am, and it staggered from there. By about 8:30 am there were 10-15 people behind me, and when the box ...

Fosse76 said: "lukeworsham said: "Was just perusing ticket sites in prep for a May NYC trip, and I noticed that tickets to DEH when I'll be in town are extraordinarily cheap. You can sit virtually anywhere in the Music Box outside of premium for just over $100, even the front row. Not even Phantom is that cheap.What's up with that?"That's nothing...my friends who work at Come From Away say that they've seen a large amount of prime orchestra seats sold for only $52, and even with the show's ma...

UncleCharlie said: "If you're not thinking about rushing until mid March which is a month from now and think info from 5 days ago is too outdated, why try to gather information now which by your standards will be ancient a month from now. Why not just wait until early March and see what people are reporting then?"Because rush scenarios are constantly changing and I was curious if that was the case with MM. There could be 10 people in line a week ago, and 60 people in line a week later. I'm so...

BCfitasafiddle said: "You'll find many experiences with rush in this thread:https://www.broadwayworld.com/board/readmessage.php?thread=1127161"Yes, I have seen that, and as I mentioned, the last post on that thread was about a week ago (Feb 10). I was looking for something more up to date - maybe this week or last week. Thanks.

ACL2006 said: "Having the u/s go on for a few performances instead of the producers paying the actors to sit home is the lone reason to have performances those days. It also gives people the opportunity to see the show without paying top dollar."Yes, but to be brutally honest, does anyone really want to see this without Hugh Jackman?? Like a previous poster said, there is a reason Boy From Oz was dark when Jackman was out.
