Matilda's previews begin tonight. Anyone seeing it tonight or this week? I can't wait to see people's reactions and reviews! I'm so excited to see it in May! :3

I'm seeing it Monday (tonight) and am excited. I've had so many people tell me that they loved it in London, and it did cross the pond on a wave of hype, so I hope it can live up to the build up and dazzle.
Thursday! Last row of the balcony! I'll be squinting but I sure will be there!

I'll be there on Wednesday night as well! Beyond excited!!
I hope they have fixed the sound issues that the London production has, saw it last Sep in London, loved it but some of the lyrics where very had to understand
Very excited to hear how it goes! Especially since some of the original London cast is in the show, especially Bertie Carvel. Hope to see this on my trip in May!
I'm curious to know what major changes they've inevitably made to the score that won't be preserved with a new cast recording.
SOOOOO excited for all of you seeing this! I can't wait to hear your thoughts... I live vicariously through all of your reviews. One day I will live in NYC and be at all the first previews, but until then, your reviews are the next best thing!
Don't expect any changes to the score and you probably won't get a Cast Recording, either.

God, I hope "you guys" in New York like this show.
I don't think it's the second coming of Christ or anything, but it's still a very good musical and it will be a shame if its appeal doesn't transfer across the pond!

They are going to have British accents in the Broadway version correct?
Wednesday seems to be the popular night. I will be there then as well. Looking forward to it. Especially going into it blindly.

Chaperoning a school trip there Saturday. Girlfriend was upset I was seeing it without her so we're going together on the 19th. I can't wait!

The people who are seeing it tonight/this week are super lucky D:
I'm going tonight too! I'll be in the very last row in the balcony, but I don't care, I'm stoked!

Seeing it tonight. Really lucked out. I kept checking through the Broadway box discount link this morning for single seats ... scattered seats were showing up all morning. When the aisle seat, second row left mezzanine showed up, I grabbed it. For $89. It's about my favorite place to see a musical in the Shubert. I'm WAAAAY excited.

Seeing it this Thursday night - 4th row center orchestra. Hope it's as good as all of the reviews on TripAdvisor
Seeing it next Tuesday. I know 3 people in the cast and can't wait to see both them and this show. Will be up in the balcony.
