I do, but it's been a great Broadway season and I've already spent soooo much money."

True. LeSigh.

poisonivy2: So I am considering seeing this. Dithering between this and Mincemeat.

I just got home from Buena Vista and it is such a beautiful show. I saw it twice at the Atlantic and love how the direction contrasting then vs now has refined. I’d see it again if I could that’s how much I enjoyed the music. The lighting is also superb. I saw Mincemeat on Tuesday and it was good but I don’t feel like seeing it again even though it has a better book.

Anybody know what’s happening on 4/30 matinee? I had tickets for then but it appears to have been cancelled.

Has anyone done rush for this recently? What time did you get to the theater? Seems like rush tickets are partial view, do they offer rush upgrade option?  Also, based on previous comments, if I decide to purchase partial view is left orch recommended over right? Coming in this weekend and I’d really like to see this one!

Just go to the tkts booth.  Don’t risk partial for this one.

As expected, this is going on tour next season - launches in Buffalo fall 2026.

I finally got around to seeing this last night, and I really enjoyed it quite a bit. Natalie Venetia Belcon is doing some marvelous work. I thought the set and lighting were both top notch and just beautiful to look at. The book is paper thin, but serviceable enough.

The audience was one of the worst I been a part of in years - texting, photo taking, phones going off, people getting up and down, constant chatting... The ushers were on it, but, man, they were up and down those aisles with their flashlights A LOT.

This show isn't getting a theater audience. According to a friend of mine who works at the theater, the non-theater audience are much better at cooperating with the ushers than the theater audience members who are seeing the show, though both groups display a different level of entitlement.

Selling a Row G Seat 7 for tomorrow matinee for $80-100, its worth double, hit me maybe it could be even less.

You might already know this, but you might want to consider selling your tickets on the Theatr app. I've been able to sell several unused tickets in minutes if they're priced well below face value.

This show has done a Tiny Desk Concert as well — releases tomorrow.

Is there any news on a cast recording?

Thought their Tiny Desk concert was just fabulous.

OMG I just listened. Absolutely fantastic! I love that this show is doing so well, and I love that people from all over the world are loving it. Having this kind of diversity on Broadway is absolutely essential.
