The show is listed on Ticketplace (DC's half-price ticket booth) for the rest of the week. I might go see it sometime over the weekend. For those without a car (like me), I was told the Metro to the bus leaves you two blocks from the theatre.

I took Bus 22A from Pentagon station. It passes by the Shirlington Village so just get off and walk within the village for about 2 blocks.

but the bus ends quite early (I think around 930pm or 10ish so its a tight run to come back, and I think Kiss is longer so you may miss it if you see the night show).

Does anybody know if they have promo codes for Kiss yet? I plan to come see it in mid April but most reviews have been raves so I'm thinking it will start doing better and not sure if I should risk rush or not.

It looks pretty good, although the ensemble doesn't look very Latin.

I lvoe how much Hunter and Sutton support each other.

was Sutton sick in that picture? Or crying? Or... just really seriously not wearing makeup?


that's a really big mic...

Yes...definitely don't assume it is sold out. We got tickets last night for next Saturday's matinee and they are great seats...but I am also under the impression that there really aren't many bad seats at the Signature.

I am so incredibly excited, especially after seeing the pictures!

Will Chase could have let Sutton use some of his make-up for the after party.

I am most fond of the second one there, Jay*!

But, my favorite pic so far is the cell made of lights. Breathtaking, IMHO. If only I didn't have guests this weekend and have to wait another week!

I can't believe that Washington City Paper review said the musical was never good! A musical set during the Argentine Dirty War, how much more could you want?


Jimmy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? It's almost 9 PM!

Washington City Paper isn't exactly a reputable source of theatrical reviews.

Definitely don't assume the show is sold out, but don't count on promo codes I don't think. Its pretty rare- especially for the known musicals. It has been on TicketPlace though.

I will be there on Saturday night too. It would be nice to say "Hi," Morosco. re: Photos : Kiss of the Spider Woman (DC)

Anyone else going Saturday night?

This casting is a complete joke, except for Diaz who actually looks the role.

How is the rush ticket in Signature for this show? I am in Baltimore, so it is a very long drive to the box office.

I am kind of hesitating about trying my luck to buy a rush ticket 30mins before the show when I drive all the way from Baltimore to DC.

On the otherhand, I can buy ticket from ticketplace but it cost a lot more.

Does anyone see the show with rush ticket? Will someone plan to see the show by rush ticket?

Sutton Foster is notorious for looking ... uhh... less than glamorous off-stage.

Washington City Paper isn't exactly a reputable source of theatrical reviews.

Why not? Apart from the Post, which local reviews DO you consider "reputable"?

Oh well, in this case, the Post agrees with City Paper / Mondello:

I will be there on Saturday as well. I'm really excited, especially after looking at the pictures. Besides the basic plot I know nothing about the music or anything, so it'll be interesting to go in there not knowing what to expect.

Went to buy my ticket for this evenings performance, but Ticketplace was already sold out. I'm going to see the play, "All that I Ever Will Be" at Studio.

Dottie, are you living close to Signature? Have you tried their rush tickets?

Rush is 30 minutes before the show and costs $20. I went Wednesday for my second time and got front row center (thank you box office people!). I've rushed twice now at the Signature and have gotten tickets and they have been amazing seats.

I would recommend if you are thinking of rushing to call before or check the website to see if there are tickets available still because the space is so small. Also, if you are a student call or go to the box office in person if you are a student and you can get a discount.

Brandy,

Thank you so much. This is really helps. I am thinking about watching all three Kender&Ebb works. This is a good season for Signature.

Sadly to say I agreed with Washington Post review. It's a great production but lacks of heart. I think material is the issue here.

I also agreed with the below review, which I misused the word in another post.

"The character of Molina, though, has not worn well. His campy gestures -- the fey flourishes, the leering references, the red scarf he caresses to pretty up his drab prison garb -- seem very old hat: It's an antique, Quentin Crisp sort of gay character."
