It says NY, so not sure if it’s Broadway or not but still exciting!

I’d assume it’s coming to Broadway. The lead producers are Gavin Kalin Productions and Wessex Grove, who also worked on Cabaret and the Chastain Doll’s House.

Thrilled to see this confirmed after The NY Times rumor.
I wonder if Motive is still coming over or if this has eyes on a different theater.

I said this recently in the thread about Heathers, but applies here too:
In general, if marketing/press says “New York,” that’s usually code for “not Broadway,” because shows aiming for Broadway tend to specify that.

Very true.
I did wonder about The Shed when the rumor popped up. The Effect did very well there as a UK transfer. Lear is set to kick off soon.

Posted: 9/25/24 at 12:54pmMy friend who is more jaded than me saw this twice in London so I'm happy with wherever it decides to play in New York.

Great news. Was hoping this would transfer. I hope this is what finally makes me get Chekhov!

Heathers I definitely believe that about. I think for this, if you click the link to look at the post, they're capitalizing on the fact that NY exists within VaNYa. I think it really could go either way.

Will this be his first time on a New York stage since 2007?
Anybody here see him in The Vertical Hour? How come that production got zero Tony nominations?

I do find it interesting that they just this week, released the filmed version of this from London to National Theatre at Home. If they’re bringing it to New York, wouldn’t it make sense to wait & release that until after this run ends?

When it comes to visitor experience, I'll take BAM over The Shed or PAC any day.

PAC? I find it weird that they haven’t announced anything for their upcoming season yet.

Who sold their soul to make the Lortel the hot spot for wildly popular off-Broadway runs?

I wish they’d put some money into a facelift for the theater! The sightlines in the mezzanine are notoriously horrific, the seats are all so old, and I’ve seen mice scurrying around there on more than one occasion.

That’s what I’m saying! It’s run down as hell and has been for quite some time. You’d think with back to back sell out runs, they’d be able to put some of that rent into upkeep.

Am I missing something? Pre-Sale (now, at noon, thru the end of the month) is mentioned, but no info on how to get pre-sale. Is it just on Todays Tix then will be available somewhere else?

Ok.....I have a tiny window of availability for the run, don't want to miss out!

Will be online for the TodayTix sale at noon. If any Lortel members can share pricing ahead of time, I would be most grateful! Want to prepare myself for whatever hit my wallet is about to take to see Andrew's glorious performance (and arms) in person.
Edit: Got Orch Row A for $99.
