just noticed their performance schedule after it opens tomorrow night and that they'll be dark for a week and resume performances next Tuesday. And then they have a few weeks where they're doing 9 shows.
According to Telecharge, Corden will be out Oct. 7 & Nov. 18.

Cannavale was the weakest link for me. NPH was fine, if miscast, and Corden fared the best by a mile.
All in all (and unfortunately) another shiny star vehicle with not muchof note going on under the hood."
This sounds like what I would expect, based on having seen and read the play and seen all three actors in previous Broadway appearances. I'm still not sure if I will see it. My FOMO days are long past.
I saw it the other day and I thought it was alright. I looked at my watch at one point because I felt it was really dragging and saw it had only been going for about 25 mins. Like others have said, it did pick up after Corden’s monologue which oddly, the audience went crazy for it but I thought it felt very of out of place with the rest of the writing? I dunno, like I said I didn’t hate it and I didn’t love it, the whole thing just kind of sat there for me.
I’d always been curious about this play seeing how popular it was when it premiered and maybe with that cast it was a different experience. I can’t say anyone in this revival is miscast or “bad” but I just didn’t get the hype or adoration for it.
Definitely liked it but wouldn’t say loved. All three were very good, but Corden stole the show because his character was the lovable one. It lost me in the last 5 minutes. That ending felt unnecessary. Also, there was a big deal made about Kid Harpoon’s music and there was basically none. That was ridiculous.
