I hope you can avoid the unpleasant staff at this theatre. The blond female usher in the balcony and the woman house manager were so lacking in manners I left the theatre before the show started and I have never done that before due to staff attitude and behavior at at theatre. Certainly it's not a service to the show and if I were the producer or actors I wouldn't want customers to be ill-treated.
Too bad, Zoe Wanamaker is like my favorite stage actress, but enough is enough.

On Friday, it was out around 10:30. So, about 2 1/2 hours (which includes two intermissions and a 2-minute scene change). I liked it and thought the time went by quite rapidly, except for the second intermission, which I'm not used to.

I'd suggest skipping it. It was good, but there are far better things on Broadway right now (like THE LIEUTENANT OF INISHMORE and WELL and THE DROWSY CHAPERONE)

I have my ticket already, as well as one for Drowsy. I absolutely detested Well.

What is it about Well?
It seems like only the critics like it so far.
I haven't seen it yet.

Well is an acquired taste. I haven't acquired it. It was quite boring and I found myself looking at my watch more-so than usual.
I've seen the following so far this year:
Sweeney Todd
Barefoot in the Park
Doubt
Ring of Fire
Pajama Game
Odd Couple
Well
Threepenny Opera
Tarzan
and have tickets for Awake and Sing, Festen, and Drowsy. If I had my way, half of the aforementioned shows would have closed already.

The only one of those I've seen was Ring of Fire.
And I liked it so much I went back and saw it again.
Great talent in that cast, great vocals and musicianship. Fantastic young woman fiddler.

I totally agree! The female usher in the balcony is the rudest usher I have ever met. I went to the show as a theatre trip with my college, and the woman was yelling at people left and right. She actually screamed across the rows to tell someone they were sitting too far over one seat (Move!! Move over right now!). Then, during the first intermission she yelled at everyone to sit down because it wasn't intermission. But, it was. So, try to avoid her! Yikes!
