And Into the Woods is touring nationwide. All we need is a New York production of Company somewhere and we're effectively in Sondheimland ASSASSINS coming to Encores Off-Center

Can't wait to finally see a live production of Assassins. Long time coming!

This I want to see. Saw the production at Roundabout and loved everything about it except Mario Cantone. (Just not a fan of his). I am a big Sondheim fan but for some reason have no desire to see the current production of Sunday In the Park. Can't wait to see who they cast for Assassins.


Just give the world Love.

Didn't Off Center offer $25 tickets in the first few rows to the general public when the series started? I thought that's what I got for Tick Tick Boom and I'm not eligible for any discount program.

This is so funny, I'd just gotten my boyfriend into ASSASSINS and now it's getting a City Center production! He's thrilled. I am a proud converter. Muhahaha

I love this show. Can't wait to see the cast.

The Roundabout reunion concert was one of the most incredible performances I have ever seen. Can't wait to see who will be cast.

This is one of my favorites, and I hope to be able to see this production. I've only seen two local amateur productions in the past (though both were quite good).

I'd love for Annaleigh Ashford to reprise her fantastic performance as Squeeky from the reunion concert. Any chance this could be recorded?

If only it were the 2002 Into the Woods revival touring instead of the pared down, experimental Fiasco production. I may be in the minority, but I loved the physical production and directorial changes Lapine made for 2002. Casing may have been slightly off here and there, but it was designed to be able to tour well, sadly 42nd Street remained the Dodgers' focus on the revival front and Into the Woods underperformed in the tough 2002 season after 9/11. I'd still rather see the revival production or a recreation of the original over the Fiasco tour. But hey any Woods is better than No Woods, I guess.

 

But yes, a Company somewhere in NYC would be lovely. Josh Henry, Jeremy Jordan or Andrew Rannels as Bobby, please.

Anyone else just get their P2P ticket(s) for Assassins (or another Off-Center show)?  I snagged mine right at noon and it looked like seats were selling fast when I went back to browse the seating charts.

The $25 tickets, by the way, are the first three rows of Orchestra (AA-CC), far side Orchestra, and far side Grand Tier.  Having sat in one of the $25 far side Grand Tier seats in the past, I can attest that they still provide a great view.  I wasn't sure if AA-CC would be too close, but I decided to try out a Row CC seat for kicks.  I'll never know if I don't try it, right?

I just got BB. I'm on my phone and kept on clicking different seats which suddenly weren't available so just went with the first ones that got into my cart.

They're not too close. I've sat in the first three rows before. They sent the email out at like 12:30 for a sale that was supposed to start at noon. Typical.

Did the email go out for members with pre-sale code?  I don't recall seeing it.

Woohoo! Just got a seat in row AA! I sat there for Little Shop, A New Brain, & the Wild Party and the view is excellent. 

I got their email at 11:26am, but it went into Spam so I didn't see it till I checked now. There are still great seats available.

I also got AA seats and I'm on the center aisle so I'm glad to hear that the view is excellent. Very much looking forward to this and can't wait to see what the cast looks like!

Can someone send me the promo code for peer to peer as well?  I have an account but I don't know why I didn't receive the code. 

Edit: Never mind. Just found it in spam.

My email with the code ended up in my spam, and like a doof, I deleted it with the rest of my junk mail. Can someone PLEASE pm the code? I feel so stupid having to come to you guys like this. That's what I get for not reading thoroughly. ASSASSINS coming to Encores Off-Center I'd be so beyond grateful
