"But while it’s not entirely true to say he is the one and only actor in that show, given that I witnessed one of the 'audience'members leaving through the stage door, it is a magnificent solo performance nonetheless."

Anyone know anything about this? How does it work in terms of Equity rules, Playbill credits, etc.? I haven't seen the show and am not looking to spoil the fun for anyone but am fascinated, though not wholly unsurprised, by the situation."

That person doesn’t know what they’re talking about. I was one of the people chosen to participate last week, and we get to hang out backstage for a few minutes to properly meet and chat with Dan and get pictures and such. We then exit out of one of the stage doors right behind where the crowd gathers. I think it’s the same door the rest of the people sitting on stage exit, but they had us hanging back on the opposite side of the stage so I didn’t see for sure. I promise none of the participants are plants, just super lucky audience members.

Trying to plan ahead for the general on sale, what is the high end of the ticket price range? I tend to prefer to sit closer in orch if prices are in my budget. Or maybe I’ll get a membership if with 20% off I’d break even on 2 tickets lol.

I went last night at about 5 minutes til doors and they still had orch rush left, but no mezz. Got row N seat 21, which was a great view, all I missed was the bar and nothing really happens there. Also half the row was empty so I slid over during intermission.

Is there another kG3 understudy besides Jin ha and Joseph? I wonder how it would work if Jin were to be out when joseph needed to be on as Hamilton https://instagram.com/p/BSPxnvJgK5D/

I saw the evening show last night and Joseph was on as the king. He was fantastic!

It's listed on the calendar with the symbol they use for free first previews, and you can't select June 20th when buying tickets, so I'd say they are.

I did have to manually refresh the page as it didn't seem to do it automatically, but managed to snag seats in the center section row e, so not bad at all. I had prepared for a mess from what i'd seen on here, so relatively pain free this time it seems.

I heard of walkouts in Detroit as well, though didn't personally see any due to being closer to the stage than they must have been (mostly had seats side orch third row or closer) Season ticket holders who clearly must not have read any descriptions most likely. 

And as the person above said, they use the lift in every city I believe. Not quite as impressive as the one used on Broadway, but glad they figured a way to still kinda fit it in. 

Lea was first because she had another event to go to this evening. She more than likely asked to go first so she wouldn't be rushed to get there. Otherwise I have no doubt Starkid would have gone first.

"Slightly off topic but I'm seeing the show Wednesday night and was wondering how the view was from the last row of the mezzanine?"

 I saw it from the very back corner seat of the mezz and all you miss is the audience interaction during sugar daddy. the theater is small enough i don't think there's really a bad seat there.

"The context doesn't change the meaning. It a ludicrous, ignorant  statement.
I'm not a huge fan of the performance of Taye's that I saw (his first), but I don't think anyone would call about.com an "official" review."

I've actually had quite a Hedwig filled day since I found an audio of Taye from yesterday, then watched a boot of JCM. Both had applause, JCM's rather loud tbh. My first 2 times live had silence, so I had hoped that was more common, but it seems applause happens more than I would have thought.

I've had a mix of crowd reactions there, some with silence, once w/ too much applause tbh, and once with some scattered applause that ended before the applause track they play, so it wasn't too noticeable tbh.

I'm totally fine with Taye not wanting to sign at stagedoor, he's not obligated to. If I was in their position I'd probably avoid it most nights too (but i'm an introvert and that would be entirely too draining to do often).
