Baffling.

Since the Smith Center was built, there have been a string of successful seasons catering to the Broadway tours. Additionally, the Venetian is now getting their toes wet by booking engagements of The Book of Mormon and Mrs. Doubtfire. Las Vegas is not NYC, but it is holding its own. 

Also, this was just published in the Las Vegas Weekly about the local theatre scene. 

Since this thread kind of died, I think P!nk deserves a big round of applause. She knocked it out of the park and I appreciated her awareness and ability to poke fun at herself. 

I would be totally fine with her hosting again next year. 

I've become a huge proponent of using A View From My Seat. It's helped me figure out what the cheapest seat is I can get in a specific theatre without sacrificing the viewing experience. This has allowed me to still buy tickets ahead of time and not get stuck spending my morning doing rush or TKTS. 

Also, to that end, I compared what I paid for Ragtime to the TKTS booth for a Saturday matinee and my ticket was $10 cheaper purchased directly from the show. 

I did enjoy watching that.

Maybe they'll redo the whole show and make it the Bombshell show everyone wanted in the first place. 

Also, we are probably robbed forever from ever getting a "Hit List" adaptation, if there was ever the slimmest of chances of that ever being created. Big bummer. 

1. P!nk is going to be amazing. 

2. Even if she isn't, who cares? You'll still be getting 10+ performances to watch on YouTube or your favorite bar at showtunes night. 

Everyone's a winner. 

Has there been any discussion on a Proshot for this production? It seems like it would fit in perfectly for PBS Great Performances. 

Saw this on Friday. Callouts were minimal. Energy was fine. Luke Evans is great. 

I just saw this and my only question is - how the heck is this going to tour without restaging the whole show?

That theatre is the worst.

To me it was nothing short of a tourist trap.

The set has awful sight lines, the script was clunky, the effects (except for one) out of community theater and the plot twist comes too late.

And what are those other creepy/scary productions? 

 

I liked Paranormal Activity more, but also enjoyed Stranger Things. 

Website is setup to register interest. 

Will play Boston's Emerson Colonial first for strictly limited Pre-Broadway engagement from July 11-30. 

Having seen this in L.A. I can't wait to see it again.

This is the most non-answer I've seen. This is coming from the production, yes?

I am headed to see this at the end of May and I still have no idea what is expected in terms of audience decorum. Are we yelling or not yelling?

Wasn't this show only meant for a limited run and then to go out on tour?
