The tickets are £25"I was very, very close to booking a flight specifically to see this. My cousin (also a Stranger Things fan) lives in London and it would’ve been a good family night. The two 11/19 performances will be filmed, and my hunch is that there will be a paid livestream option.

Jay Lerner-Z said: "Is Noah forever condemned because of something he said or did as a 17 year old kid?Harsh."In certain online circles, yes indeed. On X (a cesspool, to be clear) he gets worse treatment than abusers and criminals. Fortunately, he didn’t have to wait long after graduating this spring to book work. Hopefully that trend continues, and the conversation can become more about his work rather than tired controversy.

In any case, Noah has made it clear that he doesn't support genocide or violence against civilians in general, multiple times through multiple platforms.If anyone would like to know more about what happened with him and how things spiraled into an antisemitic/homophobic hate campaign, I encourage you to check this post that breaks it all down.As a big fan of his work in Stranger Things, I'm excited for this next step and wish him a great run.

Skywalker3 said: "As far as we know now, Noah isn't pro Israël (anymore)."It's really messed up because he only expressed solidarity with the victims of October 7, not with the government or military.When you consider that his extended family and friends of friends were among the victims, his stance makes more sense, and he consistently kept Palestinian suffering in his rhetoric. So many people would rather minimize his perspective to just being evil and pro-genocide, when that's literally th...

AC126748 said: "broadway86 said: "As for the criticisms of his acting, he's the only cast member to get multiple awards and nominations for his performance in the final season. Go figure..."Multiple awards and nominations is stretching it a bit, isn't it? I see one win from something called the Critics Choice LGBTQ+ Awards, and one Saturn Award nomination (in a category where Sadie Sink was also nominated)."We can also count the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding TV Drama which, obviously, is ...

iluvtheatertrash said: "Zionism is the belief that Jews have a right to an existence in their ancestral homeland. Zionism is older than the current state of Israel. Being a Zionist doesn't mean you support the current Israeli government or its actions. Many Zionists want a two-state solution. Many Zionists, including some who were slaughtered on October 7th, actually worked and volunteered with Gazans on peace efforts, like Vivian Silver, and Bilha & Yachovi Inon, may their memories be a bles...

kdogg36 said: "Is there something about this actor that justifies the hostility I'm sensing in this thread? I'm genuinely curious:I know he was inStranger Things(which I haven't watched) and that he came out as gay a few years ago, but that's all I know about him."Yup, there is ongoing hate against him with a lot of distorted facts. For example, this video with the stickers was filmed the summer before October 7, and it leaked in the weeks afterwards. The perception is that he's evil and want...

So excited and (naively) hopeful for a transfer.

Scarywarhol said: "I did that but couldnt get them to send me a link to reset, checking spam folders and everything. Friend has the same issue so hopefully just something that's still being worked out."Same here. I know I paid for a membership several months ago, but the Reset Password option is not working, and it's not going to my spam/junk folder.

So it’s looking like Levy is pretty close to a lock? She was very good, but I feel like the category is just super weak this season. :(

I'm not sure what the rationale was for putting Hsu in Leading Actress, but I feel like she could've had a really good chance in Featured. (To be fair, I haven't seen Chess).

walnutoraroach said: "If this is not the revival version, there IS no Sally."I was so excited for this, until I read the part about the '87 orchestrations. Still can't wait to see it, but I feel the revival benefited from Sally and the revamped score.

If this doesn't transfer, I stg...

I'm genuinely surprised, she has said many times she doesn't enjoy doing theatre. Having said that, I will absolutely be there.

rachelfran said: "I wonder what i missed with Uranowitz. This is the character that I would most relate to, and I didn't get anything from him. I found the whole show came to life when Josh Henry was on the stage and otherwise was muted. Maybe it's the night I saw, and they've settled in better since."I agree insofar as I thought he was the standout at NYCC, but when I saw the Broadway production several days ago, it felt like he somehow took a step backwards.

So excited for Jasmine. I imagine she's excited to work on some darker material, I think she'll be great.

Not a good look, at all. And also, I’ve never, ever, even once thought of Joe Hardy as a dancing role. Maybe things are a little different with this new production.

ErmengardeStopSniveling said: "After her terrifying, hilarious role in WEAPONS, it dawned on me that I would like to see Amy Madigan as Violet Weston (even just in a regional production)."YES.

BorisTomashevsky said: "Today in ‘interpretations of what Billy is singing’:https://www.tiktok.com/@graycenpaulicelli/video/7537416211211046175As always, apologies to anyone who can’t see the videoin their browser."Yikes.

Was seated for today’s matinee of “Not About Nightingales”, when the house lights came on and we were told to exit the theatre due to a “medical emergency.”No idea who was affected, hope they are okay. Rebooked my ticket for this Friday.
