I can't guarantee anything, but FYI there were (relatively) very few people in line today. There may still be tix if you want to meander by and check it out.

I passed by there around 10:20 and there looked to be no more than about 50 people on line - which really surprised me.
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!"

The first few days of the run -- before people realize it's open yet -- are always a little slow, so it's a good time to jump on tickets if you have time ..............although they're predicting rain late this afternoon and throughout the night and tomorrow morning so there's no guarantee that the show will go on.

The rain slowed the preparation for the production down a bit. So tonight is the first preview. The show officially opens June 28.

Today, you could've gotten there AT 1pm, and still gotten tix. The line *barely* made it around the bend so that you couldn't see the theater. There are 1880 seats (or thereabouts) and I'd estimate there were only mid-upper hundreds on line when they started handing out tix.
Yeah, hoping there's no rain *knock on wood*.

I checked the website. The shows are starting at 8:30pm now?

I wish I had seen the Raul Julia/Ellen Greene version of 3Penny Opera. Here's hoping they will issue the recording on cd.

Curtain is at 8:30 for Macbeth (and Macbeth only) because by that time it should be (mostly) dark which the director wanted so as to add to the mood and atmosphere of the piece.
There have been lots of fun Shakespeare in the Park productions in the past. One of my favorites was a production 15 years ago of Taming of the Shrew starring Morgan Freeman and Tracey Ullman, set in the Old West and set to music. It was really a blast.
And speaking of "Shrew," did anyone ever see the Park production sometime in the late 70s with Meryl Streep and Raul Julia as Kate and Petrucchio, either live or on PBS? I haven't seen it in many years and it wasn't preserved on video, but it was the funniest, slaptick (Streep did pratfalls), boisterous but well-spoken production of it that I've ever seen.

MACBETH last night was really something. A very dark staging, featuring a virtuoso performance by Mr. Schreiber. Maybe the best Macbeth I've ever seen. Jennifer Ehle as Lady Macbeth was intense and straight-up crazy. The entire ensemble was very very good, and the show ran surprisingly well for a first preview. This is definitely one to see.
ETA: I was chatting with one of the Public Theater employees last night before the show, and they said that this is the first time that MACBETH has ever been presented at the Delacorte. I found that very interesting, seeing as it is probably one of Shakespeare's best-known plays. Updated On: 6/15/06 at 06:51 AM
Sorry to get off topic - but I would like to know what the seating is like there.
I have a summer sponsor ticket (only in town for 2 days) and have section D seat 301 for Mother Courage in August. Does anyone know the seating arrangements for this show. I know they do not post a seating chart because it changes by show, but I would like to know where this seat is situated.
