Anyone else excited for Joe Turner?

It starts previews tomorrow and it seems like news about it has been so quite. I think it's going to be a sleeper hit, and I'm so excited to hear/see it.

I wish they would do a student rush but I know LCT is a stickler about it.

I wasn't planning to see it, but I got comps for tomorrow night, and now I'm actually getting excited. Hope it's good!

Oh yes !!!! LOVE Wilson, and I think I was one of the few that fell in love with "Radio Golf"-

Thanks to the discount code, (and TDF) got tix for a few dates--

I think it's the best play of the cycle and loved the original production. Delroy Lindo was mesmerizing. Hope that the new version is just as good.

Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.

Sher is a talented fellow. I'm sure Wilson will be done proud.

I fell in love with "The Piano Lesson" when I saw a college production. I'm so excited to see a full blown production. I hope I can get a cheap ticket for tomm.!

I also *loved* RADIO GOLF and I look forward to seeing what the brilliant Bartlett Sher has done for his production of JOE TURNER'S COME AND GONE. Sher has never disappointed in any production of his I've seen, and I'm sure it will be terrific.

I'm going tonight, and I've been looking forward to it for a while now. The only thing Bartlett Sher has done lately that I haven't enjoyed was Prayer For My Enemy, but I think that was more about the play itself than the direction.

I'm sure it will be an exciting night too with all the Broadway debuts in the cast!

Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco. Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!

Hm, I can't decide if I want to go or not. I might give it a week or so to let them get their footing.
