I know its Off-Broadway, but we basically still have no Broadway, so why not keep it here. Has anyone seen it? I believe it just started yesterday and stars Jackie Hoffman.

Seeing it this Wednesday. Can’t wait! First show for me since pandemic started. Still have to mask up for this one and proof of vaccination. Will report!

Looking for 1 ticket. I didn’t buy my ticket in time, and I’m only in town until the 10th (it’s sold out). If someone has a ticket please send me a PM.

Also would be my first show, and I’d be so excited!

Overall I enjoyed it. It's not quite what I expected (I went in thinking it was a one woman show but there is a second actress on stage with Jackie Hoffman the whole time) and it's a bit darker than I thought it was going to be but Hoffman is really great and funny and the whole conceit is very creative. A nice show to welcome me back to the theater after so long.

I'm so delighted to have our first report on the show! Littlesally, can I be annoying and ask a few specifics? Namely: is there any music? I imagine you don't hear the Fiddler score, but I can't help but be curious. And is it all general admission seating? I get pretty claustrophobic so am curious if there's a sense of how hard one has to fight for an aisle seat. Glad to hear that while it may not have been what you expected, you still found much to enjoy!

Ask away! There is a bit of the Fiddler score in the background as the "show" goes on on stage while we're focused backstage. It is general admission but I feel you on the claustrophobia thing because I feel the same exact way.
