New block of tickets through September 6th, 2026.

It appears that, during the summers, they are bucking a Sunday matinee for a Monday night. I’m curious to see how this show does on a Monday night and a Wednesday matinee, since I feel like the club/party environment would be conducive to two shows on Sunday instead. We shall see. 

Also, speaking from experience, the seats right on the runway go FAST, so if you wanted to experience it that way, then get to stepping.

So how soon will they be forced to add more covers and swings? There's already four covers on tonight.

I don’t know if the human body is designed to do that choreography 8 times a week. I would expect there to be constant swings and covers on.

which means they could end up like the original CATS and have just as many swings & vacation covers as they did cast members.

I love when a show like MHE, DEH, and TWO STRANGERS has more standbys than onstage actors.

I just checked and there appears to be 5 on. There is a very nasty sickness going around the company at the moment and pretty much everyone is on vocal rest. I’m sure they are probably already thinking of getting additional swings and covers, but previews have been an ever-evolving process and it appears many of them were laying down vocal tracks last week for a cast recording.

The lability in the weather also certainly doesn’t help a damn thing. But there are many cast right now who are pushing through best they can with opening a week away.

I've heard a few people online rave about Deuteronomy's entrance, anyone care to spoil?
