So due to the overwhelming amount of posts from the first previews thread, lets start a new one for tomorrow nights performance. Is anyone going? Please post thoughts and reviews!

It wasn't the first preview page, it was the whole preview period thread for the sole reason of not having a million different threads.

It might be a good idea to split the threads into acts. So this thread can be Preview #2 Act One thread and then somebody should start a Preview #2 Act Two thread.
Also, perhaps a Twitter account for intermission tweets.
I'm just going to stage door this thread. Will you guys sign when you leave?
Something something show curtain something something playbill something something understudies.

That b*tch!
Does this thread sell SRO tickets?
Hell, doesn't even have a good looking show curtain!
OH MY GOD!!!!
Really?, one preview and people on here are something something something something something, something something something something etc? Something something something drama queens something something something gossip and speculation something something something something something something something.
Something something something something something something something tweets something something something something flop?, what about something something something something something something something something something something? Do you really think something something something something something something something something something something something something something something something bizarre absolute?
The book is something something something something something something. Me me me something something something other people something something something something me me me.
Semi-unrelated backstory, something something something something something something...attempt at sarcasm. Something something something something something something. Something something something book something something something something something. Something 65 million dollars something something something something something something.
"Quote from someone else which I will now piss all over"
Actually,something something something something something something something something something something. Something something something something something (something) something something something something something, something something something something something something something.
Something something something drama train something something something pointless self-righteousness something. Something something something something something something.
Something money something something something something something something something, even if it’s Julie Taymor something something something something. Remember, pointlessly condescending remark, something something something something. Something something advance something something something, needlessly hopeful comparisons to successful shows, something something something something something.
Something something something something, CONDESCENSION. Pointless comparison, Billy Elliot something something something, Titanic something something, Gone with the Wind something something something something, Witches of Eastwick something something something etc, something, something something something, condescension. Blowing my own horn something something something something something something something. Condescending statement that doesn't really apply to the conversation. Something something something something, you can’t judge something something something something something something audience something something something something something something something something something something something something.
Also something something something something something something something something something something something something something something.
Denigrate drama queens exactly like myself and call them stupid no matter how many times I've behaved this exact same way myself..........DECLARATIVE STATEMENT, I'M MAKING A DECLARATIVE STATEMENT.
Condescending denouncement of the very drama I revel in.
I feel like a guinea pig!

I was at the second preview that will be taking place later on tonight.
There were 27 mechanical issues and the music still sucked.
The Heckler (as Reidel has coined her in today's column) was back and this time she brought a can of Raid.
They had to eliminate the Geek chorus from act 2 b/c by the time it started after a 2 hour intermission it was past their bedtime.
Taymor read their lines from her mike in the heavens.
But the biggest improvement was that they added Naomi Campbell to narrate the fashion show. Many in the audience, including me, thought she would end up being the main villain in the second act, but then we realized this was make believe and not real life.
Show ended at 2:30 am.
Vultures!!! Hippocrates!!!

I'll be there tonight, and I'm glad to see this thread after going through the first 24 pages of the last one.
Just some thoughts, I'm going in alone just out of curiosity, with discounts not knowing what to expect. It'll probably be the greatest spectacle or fiasco ever. If it sucks, oh well! I'll just head on over to the Heartland Brewery down on 43rd. I have a craving for some Cornhusker lager.
Can we just copy and paste the whole "are previews worth the money" argument from the other thread into one long post? I really don't want to have wade that crap again.

WonderWaiter... That was brilliant.
Wonderwaiter... That was hysterical! How long did it take you to write that with all the "somethings"?
GreenGirl5, allow me to introduce you to the concept of copy and paste...

Wonderwaiter, your 12:25 post should be bronzed.
Looking forward to Spider-Man Preview #3 thread.
Spider-Man Preview threads, a Broadway Tradition.
Who would've thunk it!
I'm also a fan of the 11:44 wonderwaiter post, which basically sums up everything we all ask on this board anyway.
So where do I get my soon-to-collectible t-shirt?
