Hogan, that's a pretty rude thing to assume I use Google Calendar. Sutton manages my calendar for me but doesn't do a very good job at it.

In case anyone cares (why on earth should they?), I've seen A STRANGE LOOP at Playwrights Horizons and at the Lyceum. I adore it. I just have doubts about the Tony voters. I'd love to be wrong. Again, not that anyone should care about my personal opinions (or...schedule?), but you may read my thoughts on post 209 here.

Is this an all time low for “Come From Away”? $89 for average price is not good.

If you click on the show, you can see it's all-time grosses, and you can have it organize by the size of the gross. 

They had worse weeks during Omicron - 2 of which were full weeks, and 2 of which were truncated. They also had a worse week in early previews back in 2017.

Yes. I have felt since the beginning that this is very much a FUN HOME/GENT'S GUIDE situation. Both those shows would have been big financial failures without those wins. And this is more esoteric than both of those, and not necessarily Tony-friendly depending on the mood of the voters."

Yeah, that's not true at all. Also, you didn't see ASL so stop talking about it like you have, thanks."

1. How is it not true?

2. How do you happen to have access to Ermengarde's google calendar?

3. Those who live in glass houses might want to consider not throwing stones."

What a rollercoaster these 3 posts have been!

Thanks for the laugh, Ermengarde.

I've been surprised that POTUS hasn't done more advertising (beside buying out the marquee of the Broadhurst) considering the number of big names they have, and ones that extend beyond theater as well.  Maybe it's too soon for a presidential political satire, but I would've expected it to be doing better.

Company has honestly lasted longer and had better grosses than I expected (which I'm delighted by, as I've been 4 times).  I'm curious to see if the theater crowd outside of NYC will help pick it up during the summer season, where presumably more people might be looking to do a theater trip.

If they win Big time, I think Company can match the run of the show’s Last revival. Honestly, it would be good for a niche show Like That.

Company will most likely win Best Revival and possibly a few more Tony’s but will most likely have the same run as “A Little Night Music”. Revivals typically run about a yr regardless of awards etc.

I'd love to see a picture of the Potus marquee with the Broadhurst? That sounds cool. 

Yeah, I'm not sure Company would appeal to tourists or anyone outside of that. It does have some spectacle though, so maybe they need to play into that. I loved the design and direction.

I am now thinking that I am going to have to sacrifice one of those to ensure I get to see it."
 

Don't put it off because you're gonna want to see it twice.
