If we learned anything from the last terrible storm, they won't cancel because they don't care about the safety of their employees. They only care about our dollars. And until we stop taking advantage of snow day, discounts and stop showing up in storms, they're gonna continue to do it."It's honestly bizarre how a blizzard warning has been called, but nobody seem...

ACL2006 said: "Four Broadway shows scheduled for tonight: Chicago, Six, Gatsby & Maybe Happy Ending. NJ Transit trains not operating at the moment and bus service is very limited due to icy conditions."It's terrible out there. The sidewalks where I am are essentially clean, but the roads are awful. I was debating trying for Gatsby rush, but I may just lay low today because of that, and it being so cold.

And now since this is my 2nd time seeing it during something unusual, I am not allowed to see it ever again. My first time was when the city was covered in smoke from Canada. Fun times."& JULIET just cancelled their 6:30 performance." Thank goodness. I just walked through ankle deep snow on 43rd b/c I just left BroadwayCon. That's insane.

Seems like & Juliet is still happening tonight. This should be interesting. And now since this is my 2nd time seeing it during something unusual, I am not allowed to see it ever again. My first time was when the city was covered in smoke from Canada. Fun times.

THDavis said: "I have tickets to the 1p Hamilton this afternoon - surprised it’s still going on with this weather. I’ll report back on overall experience. From my Times Square hotel room window, it’s pretty gnarly. I’m a native Minnesotan, though, so I’m prepared to brave the storm."I'm in the same boat with the evening performance of & Juliet. It is really bad out. I walked over to BroadwayCon from my hotel. Will be interesting if shows do decide to cancel the evening, if they have both goin...

There was nothing at The Roommate yesterday.

chrishuyen said: "I found around 3-5pm to be a sweet spot for me, though I'm mostly looking for playbills and not any of the special items. Crowds were better once the shows on 45 started (and before stage dooring happened after shows), and I think the morning rush had left, while some tables were already starting to do deals.What bothers me the most is that they advertise that the flea runs until 7pm but many tables start packing up around 5. I'd understand if some tables want to leave early...

Jordan Catalano said: "Prices are even stupider than they normally are, which I knew would happen."That's a shame. I know it's going to a good cause, but they would sell more at fairer prices. I am unfortunately not there this year. I injured my hand last week and didn't feel like fighting crowds, and potentially ripping out stitches. Hope everyone has fun today though.

I think they've been trying to get rid of the Frozen shirts from the Colorado run since before COVID. I also think the tables that get the show cups also have been selling the same ones for years.I agree that I did find some stuff I liked, I wasn't impressed with much of the merchandise. I did a 2nd walk through at 4 and still found it too crowded.

I managed to get an Into the Woods signed window card for $20 before noon. It was signed by Stephanie J. Block & Andy Karl, as I can tell. Haven't looked over the rest yet.

I'll be there. I missed last year's. Looking forward to seeing what I can find. And with cancelling, they would only do so if there was an extreme circumstance where the government or cops would tell them no. They have to apply for permits to close down the streets, so it would not be in their best interest to postpone or cancel.

Wick3 said: "During my commute home I'll admit this reminded me of the days before 2003 when public indoor smoking was legal here in NYC. For those old enough to remember, I recall going out to clubs/bars at night and when I get home, my clothes reeked of smoke. I myself don't smoke and can't believe I tolerated all that back then.Stay safe everyone. Hopefully the smog will be gone by this weekend."I was in college from Fall 2003-Spring 2007. Not sure if Pennsylvania has banned smoking indoor...

I was at the & Juliet matinee. I could smell the smoke from the mezzanine before the show started. It seems like it got better once the doors were closed. Nicholas Edwards was replaced at intermission. No idea if it was because of the air or another reason.

quizking101 said: "Such a talented bunch of dancers. I personally loved this show, but I think the unbearable weight of the other revivals smashed it into obscurity.Bummer"I agree with this. I saw it and liked it, but it definitely does not hold up against Sweeney Todd or Into the Woods. I haven't seen Camelot or Parade yet.

They may not be park spaces exactly, but you can sit up on Broadway between 50th & 51st or less than a block from Bryant Park between 41st & 42nd.

The people on this board tend to be pretty knowledgeable about stuff like this, so I thought I would ask here!The only ones I really know are that the Ambassador, Marquis, and Broadway are considered particularly undesirable.Any other very undesirable theatres? What about very desirable ones?"Two of those theaters hold the longest running Broadway shows, what makes them ...

While I am happy to be able to see shows again, I'm still frustrated how the public transportation to the city is still bad from my area. Because of that, I haven't been seeing shows as often. My list in order of favorites to least:1. Into the Woods- both City Center & Broadway 2. Company3. Six4. POTUS5. A Strange Loop6. The Music Man7. Dear Evan Hansen8. Funny Girl9. Radio City Christmas Spectacular Edit- Now updated with the rest of the shows I saw. I find it fascinating how something that ...
