Posted: 10/22/09 at 2:39pmI am a huge fan of Ruhl's work. You guys need to RUSH home or to the closest internet cafe and share your thoughts on the piece ASAP!!
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Posted: 10/22/09 at 3:07pmI'll be there tonight too. I'm not really familiar with Ruhl so I have no idea what to expect.
Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco.
Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!

I wish. Benanti will be incredible, no doubt.
I read the Broadway draft of the script when I was interning at a talent agency last year, and I literally cried over it at my kitchen table. It's an unbelievable work, imo.

Posted: 10/22/09 at 11:08pmI'm back from the first preview (thanks to Calvin!). I'll work on gathering my thoughts into a review, but for now I'll say that I really enjoyed it. There were some great performances (I particularly enjoyed Benanti). I'll write more later.

Posted: 10/23/09 at 10:58amWhere were your TDF seats?
#15re: Anyone going to IN THE NEXT ROOM tonight (first preview)?
Posted: 10/23/09 at 11:09amI didn't go TDF, but I don't think anyone was in the balcony and the mezz was only partially full. Some friends of mine who did TDF were in mid orchestra.

Posted: 10/23/09 at 11:23amGood to know. I guess we'll just have to see. I've yet to have crappy seats with TDF.

Posted: 10/23/09 at 11:30amJust an FYI, from TDF's page for IN THE NEXT ROOM: "Please note: some seating may be in the mezzanine (NOT balcony"
