GOD DAMN IT, PEOPLE ARE GIVING THIS SHOW A STANDING OVATION EVERY 5 MINUTES!!!

y'know, i don't doubt this because they have obviously figured out that if they stand aand applaud that the awful sounds coming from the stage will cease, if only for a few brief moments. i'm surprised they have not had to cancel performances on account of unceasing ovations.

I'll letcha know----I'm about to leave to see this show. I honestly wish I didn't buy tickets to see it----given the awful reviews, but I'll try to be open-minded. The reason we got tix was due to the incredible performance of Eden in Wicked. This, however, is not Wicked. We'll see.

Oh Matt, I think of you every time I hear the word 'new'. It warms the heart!

"I just L-O-V-E to see how you people 'eat your heart'"

The expression is "eat your heart OUT." And yes, we are all just devastated by the smashing success of a show that's not making enough money to cover it's weekly expenses.

what weekly expenses... other than payroll, they don't have to pay for much else... the sets and costumes are all made of trash... what's to pay for?
#63

Strange

robbie and mr. matt, actually yes I'm fairly new to this forum, which I suppose is a crime. I'm not new to Broadway and theatre forums, in general, though, nor to theatre itself. I don't claim to be any kind of expert but I do see most shows as I'm lucky enough to go to school in the city. Prior to that, I visited the city on a regular basis with my family and have seen most shows which have been on in the past ten years. Like I said, I thought Brooklyn was a very flawed show, with some incredible performers. I understand that some of you may enjoy your little battles with tiny toon but it's a little childish, no? I have to say that no one has actually confirmed having seen the show since I posed the question earlier. Any takers?

I don't think many of them saw the show. And thats why everybody should not listen to their opinion about the show itself.

Tiny,

The show sux... simple as that... and you can throw the 97% garbage out the window.. Its on TDF AGAIN today !!! Many of the other shows that are not doing 97% are not on TDF. You do the math. And stop with the nonsense about the audience loving the show. I dont know ONE single person that I have spoken with that liked it, and they were part of an audience too.
#67

Strange

haha... This is too funny

Oh well, lets se..
11/16 variety..
"Brooklyn" ($414,161) gained $49,314, which gave the new tuner its best week. Contrary to the industry trend, each of the show's last three sessions has shown improvement at the box office. So much for critics driving in the final nail there.'

The show is making a profit, even if it 'papers' the house and gives away super-cheap seats. And even if we have shills here, why can't we be happy for Eden and the gang? Isn't it better to have a hit show than a dark theater?

I am VERY happy for Eden and the cast... since day one, when I saw this garbage, I said that I wanted the show to have a long run.. however, the shilling for this show (basically from one person) has reached epic proportions. But, yes... I am happy for the cast... they are doing the best that they can with a book and score that could have been written for the Teletubbies.

Hey Testing - how lovely to see you again. Since you always sound so educated and erudite, I'm going to ask you the same question I asked some other fool on another thread similar to this one: Please forgive me for forgetting, but - the name of the last B'way show that you a) starred in, b) wrote, c) produced, d) conducted, e) directed was called....? I just can't bring it to mind. Did JoeyJoe co-star with you? (Just because the huge circle of completely fabulous always right perfectly know-it-all people you seem to know rolled their eyes every second of this show does not mean other people cannot enjoy it - and even tell others about it.) And, btw, your lip service to not wishing the show ill, is belied by your constant posts to the contrary.
#71

Strange

so what you are saying with that inane comment is that if you like a show, regardless of theater experience, you can praise/shill/whatever it till kingdom come... but it requires a) starring in, b) writing, c) producing, d) conducting, e) directing or all of the above in order to have the opinion that a show is crap... is that what you're saying?

what are your credentials and how do they qualify your opinions on a show?
