Feel the exact same way. Saw it last night and was really disappointed. The performances, especially Max Von Essen were great but the book and long dance numbers were tedious.

I'd love to know too!

Thanks! I'll keep looking around and probably end up putting a list together myself. Was hoping someone had already done it for me :)

Im sure its been asked before but I couldn't find it by searching. I would love to know if there is a compilation of all the Broadway Backwards songs and performers. Not year by year but all years in one big list? If so, I would love to have it. Thanks!!

Wish I could help, my daughters were (not on the same day) in the seats right behind the lady who was chosen, painfully close. Try asking on the Reddit Broadway board as well. Hoping you find it!

Definitely won't be going for a matinee but will be rushing so I won't have the chance to find out before hand. Wish someone had a chart, haha, showing which are the most common days they are both in!

So frustrating. Im trying to map out the week I am in town (this week) and can't figure out which date/time we should try to get tickets for. I really want to see both but there are so many absences. Has anyone figured out the "best chance" day to see them?

Frustrating! Trying to map out my week in NY (May 12th-20th) and wondering what day will give us the best chance to see both of them in. Hoping now that the Tony's were announced we'll have better chances. Is there a certain day that they have seemed to be in most of the time?

Hoping to buy tickets before the Tony nominations but am struggling to figure out which day may be my best shot to have both Jennifer Simard and Megan Hilty in. Will be visiting NYC May 12-20th. I know not to go on a Wednesday as they both seem to be out a lot on double show days. That said, is there a day that is more likely to have them both in?

I completely agree. Bernadette's Send in the Clowns was beautiful but other songs were pretty rough. Lea was absolutely incredible. I mean I have seen her perform both in concert and in shows but she just blew me away. Specifically as Ms. Lovett and as Rose in Gypsy, I never thought of her as Rose but she was masterful. Was a beautiful night and I think I will probably bring friends back. If you have the chance, I would definitely recommend seeing it.

Saw Patty LuPone and remember feeling like it was an out of body experience. Would have killed to see Angela Landsbury. Hoping I get the chance to see Audra!

I searched and couldn't find the answer to this ridiculous question. So, here it goes. Does anyone know if Sutton Foster has ever had a close call or has fallen off the mattresses when she is flipping around on top of the tall pile of them in Once Upon a Mattress? I saw the show last week in L.A. and all I could think about is how carefree she seemed so high up on stage and whether she had ever fallen. Tried searching the board and on the internet but no answers. Inquiring minds... :)

I feel the same, I would love to have them release the orchestrations alone.

I was looking too for a link to watch. Couldn't make it to the live stream. Searched youtube but nothing. Does anyone know if there is a place to watch now that the live is over?

How hard is it to win the Illinoise lottery? Wondering if I should buy a ticket or enter lottery. Wont be able to rush the day I am thinking about going. Thanks!

Disappointing! Will keep an eye on all the last minute ticket sights. Thanks everyone!

Yes, I understand, we just didn't expect such a huge leap in pricing and so suddenly.

Thank you! I was in NY two weeks ago, had I know tickets could jump so dramatically, I would have gotten her a ticket. So disappointing, its getting harder and harder for regular people to afford a ticket.

I know, long shot. My daughter is going to be in NY next week to see shows, she had trouble processing her single ticket ($89) for Merrily over the weekend and when she tried again, suddenly the lowest ticket price is $300! There is no way she will be able to see it at that price and I am afraid I can't afford to help. An old friend from when they were in theatre camp is in the ensemble and she was really looking forward to seeing him. If anyone happens to have one extra, (at the prices befor...

My daughter and I are going to rush tomorrow. We'd like to try for Suffs evening and one other. For Suffs, what time would you suggest to have a really good chance of getting them? For the other, which shows are "not to be missed" that have an in person rush (and what time is best to get there for best chance)? We're into musicals primarily, maybe Water for Elephants, Notebook, Gatsby (have tix for Stereophonic already and saw Illinoise last night) but open to great plays. Was thinking of Mot...
