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.

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.

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
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.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.
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.
