Her full “Someone Is Waiting” from the Works and Process series has not been released. Unless you were in the audience, it doesn’t seem fair to judge it entirely based on short clips.

Can i ask exactly where you go to enter this discount code? Box office only, or via a website? Thx!

I’m so excited for the first preview. I’ve never seen any production of Company so I’m pretty pumped

Oh I LOVE the playbill!!

That’s fun. I like it. It looks staged (because it obviously was), but as 35 year old woman, I find something relatable about the image and Katrina’s expression.

It has the same elements as the London artwork, but it’s much more successful.

I can’t wait to how this production differs from London.

I didn’t see it in London, but I’m excited to hear what the differences are. As of now we know, “Another Hundred People” has been updated to reflect the experience of finding love on dating apps, and Chris Harper said there is a new and raw moment at the end of act one, something tells me it could involve the new title letters. 
 

I can’t believe the first preview is only one week away!

I read the EW content that mentioned the change to Another Hundred People, and then went and listened to that song with the framing of online dating, and WHOA. I always quite liked that song, I particularly enjoyed during Seth Rudetsky's deconstruction he mentioned that 'will you pick me up, do I meet you there, shall we let it go' was a very NYC way of both making and breaking plans within a single sentence. But this new framing lights it up in a totally new way. The whole chorus sounds like the struggles of dating nowadays:


"And they meet at parties through the friends of friends who they never know"
- one degree of separation dating
"Will you pick me up? Do I meet you there? Shall we let it go?"
- making plans with anyone, ever
"Did you get my message, 'cause I looked in vain?"
- meeting up with a blind date
"Can we see each other Tuesday if it doesn't rain?"
- weather is a great deterrent for a date
"Look I'll message in the morning or I'll call you and explain"
- sorry to bail
"And another hundred people just got off of the train"
- grass is always greener, so on to another person

That Playbill cover almost made me cry tears of joy when I first saw it.

On that note, I'm still waiting for them to announce a lottery...

FYI:

A bunch of partial view seats have been released. $59 on weekdays, and $79 on weekends. Quite a bargain.

Including the first preview. Might have to snatch one up.

Ugh I hate partial view though. I’ve seen some that are VERY partial.

Posted: 2/26/20 at 8:31pm

For anyone who saw it in London how obstructed would you expect the obstructed view to be? Is this show largely staged to the center or is there a lot going on on the sides?

Since it may be my only NYC trip this year, I bit the bullet and bought a $59 orchestra seat for the 5th. Did it through Today Tix, so a flat $59...no fees. Looking forward to seeing it...at least as much as will be visible.

The Cast page on the website has been updated with all of the ensembles photos. I take back all my angry "where is the diversity" rants.

Interesting, Philip Hernández has left the production and has been replaced by Matt Wall.

No stand by for Bobby?
