That's about 75,000,000 minutes collectively that could have been spent doing anything else.
A moment of silence for the time lost...

I'm proud to account for 2.0 × 10^(-6) of all attendances!!!
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

Posted: 9/14/11 at 7:06pm500,000 people have GONE to Spider-Man. That doesn't mean they all sat through it.
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

Posted: 9/14/11 at 8:41pmOne of the reasons I went back in January was because I hoped to be one of the few people who actually saw it before it closed after two months of previews. Alas. At least I got to see the shoe number...

Yes, your prize will be no one landing/falling on you when you go to see it.

So after so much time and so many shows, I wondered if they actually were performing the complete show straight through, without stopping?
When I saw the show, Spidey got stuck alone-then both he and Green Goblin got stuck as they fought
Have they fixed it?
Is it perfect-as much as Spiderman Turn Of The Dark, can be?
Thanks for the information!!

Posted: 9/15/11 at 1:38pmThe show is not the greatest but I do plan to see it again. No moment of silence needed for my time spent in the Foxwood.

We all know where this is going, but no one wants to say it.
Let's just compare it to the Holocaust and be finished here.

But most Jews I know are, too, and I like them just fine.

Why do people continue to bitch and bitch about this show? SO WHAT, you guys don't like it, we understand after 10000+ posts so how about giving it a rest.

Posted: 9/15/11 at 2:44pmLet me clarify, since it seems I need to. The Holocaust never crossed my mind regarding Spiderman or the conversation in this thread.
