(home of the Oscars)You will never criticize the Pantages as a barn if you'd had to sit thru a show at the Dolby. That place is awful. We almost gave up our season seats.

inception said: "Las Vegas anounced last nightOh Mary! Was already anounce for The Smith Center for October 6-11, but I guess they considered it too risqué to include in the regular Broadway season package."I know the Smith Center is not the strip and Vegas for tourists is not the same as Vegas for people who live that, but your comment made me laugh.We saw it in NYC with Cole and it's has been announced it is playing LA, just not if its Pantages or Ahmanson yet, but we will know by next week

Timon3 said: "Last season’s offering for Los Angeles Center Theatre Group was appalling with no new Broadway show, they need to pull their socks up for next season."I don't disagree that season was awful, but it had & Juliet so that was the one Broadway show first visit to LA. Nederlander/Pantages has been claiming everything.

Fordham2015 said: "Slightly off topic but one thing I noticed seeing Gypsy yesterday is the new Majestic has much better legroom than the Phantom era"I’m 6’5” and concur. Was in the balcony. I was talking to usher while other half was in restroom and he said without me mentioning it they spent big bucks to rerake the balcony. I’m not sure if they lost a row or what they did but I won’t complain on adding legroom

Broadway in Hollywood / Pantages Theatre announces March 7th.As Nederlander also runs Broadway San Diego, I expect it to be similar to their 25-26 announcement, except & Juliet has been announced at the Ahmanson.

BentleyB said: "We see most productions in NY so it is rare we go to see something that is on tour. I just looked at the Nashville schedule and tickets and was shocked that to get the best seat tickets you have to make a 2000.00 to 5000.00 donation, in addition to the cost of the tickets. Is this standard? It’s like extortion. For 2000.00 to 5000.00 and the price of the ticket, I can fly to NY see the shows and stay at a pretty decent hotel. "not saying it’s right or wrong but it’s not uncomm...

If the show had a jump set, it wouldn’t be taking them 2 weeks to move from Chicago to LA. They’ll likely downscale the show after the DC sit down, I’m presuming and will get rid of the traps.(I know I could google it, but don't want to) The "big reveal" in second half was jaw dropping in London and San Francisco. (Even when I knew it was coming the second time) I am curious how they will handle it on the tour, even with a 19-week run at the Pantages in LA. After "Pride Rock" hollowed out the...

Timon3 said: "ACL2006 said: I found Los Angeles to be a good barometer for tours, with the big shows going to the Pantanges and the intimate ones going to the Almanson. So could see The Great Gatsby, Hell’s Kitchen and Water for Elephants going into the Pantanges and Tommy,Outsiders and The Notebook in the Ahmanson?"Plus Pantages generally has first right of refusal for anything playing in a Nederlander Theatre on Broadway as Nederlander is generally also a producer.

Call_me_jorge said: "Same with Costa Mesa. It makes no sense why you need a venue hosting first run tours that close to LA where you have the Pantages and Ahmanson."You obviously don’t live in Southern California. Costa Mesa subscription is its own two week run which is better than one week in many markets. People aren’t going to fight So Cal traffic for 2-3 hours each way to get to Pantages from South OC.Pantages subscription run is 3 weeks, with many shows longerAhmanson I think is four wee...

I don't mind the megamix redo, if you're going to stunt cast, you milk it.I hope that was just opening night, wow he was awful, even on his own songs. I also kept waiting for him to tumble backwards when they had him lifted up in the air. I hope future shows are better.

Broadway In Hollywood (Pantages) emailed to say it is announcing February 23rd.It previously emailed saying Wicked would-be part of the 24-25 season but today's email said that once you renew you'll have "immediate access to" Wicked, so it appears to be an add-on.

I believe we are getting Matthew Bourne's Romeo and Juliet after its UK run this summer.

Mgr at Hollywood Pantages said they would announce on February 17th if not sooner. The offer to pay &100 and auto renew expires Feb 8th so timing for 17th seems correct. I guessing Wicked, which seems to drop in every three years for six weeks over the holidays wiill either be a bonus or part of the season as it’s overdue thanks to Covid.

I just saw Mean Girls at the Hollywood Pantages. I have full season subscriptions to both it and the Ahmanson. I knew Mean Girls was announced before Covid and I was curious what all actually has made it from what was announced. Of the cancelled shows, I’m most sad about not seeing SpongeBob. It looked fun. Book of Mormon closed mid run at Ahmanson, our seats just happened to be the week before the shutdown so not included in the list below Ahmanson 2019-2020 Season“Once on This Island” Cance...

Will the Hugh Jackman Sutton Foster led Music Man release a cast recording?On the positive as long as Jackman is in the role, it's a huge sell out.On the flip side, got fairly universally bad reviews.Personally I saw it so would love to get the OCR on my iPhone. I thought it was fun evening, but obviously not Pulitzer prize wining plot and I'm not sure who wrote new lyrics for Shipoopi that were either not needed or the wrong correction. But would love to have Hugh singing 76 Trombones....

It better be a "subscriber bonus option" this soon after it's last run here.1776 appears to be as confirmed as it can be.I do hope they have something Pre-Broadway up their sleeve. As much as I love the show, I hope they don't pad the season with Les Miz or Ph...

Thanks. Bummer I’ll most likely miss it. Or maybe just need to plan a fall trip. :)

Does anyone know how long Jeff Daniels will be back in to Kill a mockingbird?We are thinking of a trip in May 2022? If we can catch the original cast, I'd love to buy tickets. If Jeff will have moved on, I'm sure we'll catch it on the National Tour, if that resurfaces. I would normally assume the OC would stick around thru the Tony Awards, but as this opened in 2018 he has no reason to stick around if he doesn't want to. Thanks,

The awful movie has do with the Director and Actors cast. When they made it wouldn't have mattered if they had made the same artistic choices. I agree with others that wish the Crawford and Brightman would have been filmed such as Hamilton or Newsies.

Positive,Crutchy's song added to the second act of Newsies.Mary Poppins. Broadway was better than the West End and the First National Tour was better than Broadway.Negative. Cameron Macintosh's All New Production of Phantom of the Opera. Just no. Neutral: Cameron Macintos's All New Production of Les Miz. Not as good as the iconic original, but everything holds up so much better, it's still a great shows.
