Disaster's Last Show

Just back from the last show today and what a blast.



TDF gave us last row orchestra. The orchestra was totally full. The audience was really into it. Simard brought the house down with her slot machine number. Crowd was beyond enthusiastic. Lots of well wishers. Show was pure unadulterated fun which sadly did not find an audience. This was a show that made no pretense of what it was & what it was trying to do. It was flat out funny and made you forget all the b.s. in the world & in your life. You would have more fun here than some of the stuff still on Broadway. It should have a healthy life on the road. In addition to Prince, Bart & Yorke were standouts.

A really fun afternoon in the theater We are glad we saw it. On to Blackbird tomorrow. By the way, a fight almost erupted in the orchestra. One guy was talking throughout and the guy in back of him asked him to stop talking. He became louder refusing to stop & it almost came to blows. You could see them continuing to verbally fight after the curtain came down after Act 1.

Wait...two members of the orchestra?


They/them. "Get up the nerve to be all you deserve to be."

"A fight almost erupted in the orchestra."

I was genuinely confused, I'm so sorry. I thought you said two members of the orchestra started fighting. That would make a hell of a headline, though.

Yes it would have . Nothing could distract from the show and the fact that the audience was really into it - except maybe these 2 guys.

CindersGolightly, for future reference "orchestra" simply means the main or ground floor of seating -- called "the stalls" in the UK. Sorry it confused you.

I'm sad that I missed this show, but as others have said, this show will do great regionally. So I'll probably have another chance to see it someday.

Oh I know! I'm dyslexic. I just read it wrong, that's all.

I loved this show and I'm so sad it's closed. Sunday's performance was so energetic and fun - this show brought light and joy to this Broadway season

I agree as well. Jennifer Simard was terrific. You could really feel the energy yesterday. Really an underrated show.

Why didn't this show catch on with tourists? Reportedly tourists make up 70 percent of broadway audiences. Even though it's not summer yet, I thought Disaster would have done batter financially, and it got some good reviews. I'm glad I got to see it. I thought it was hilarious.

tourists don't usually know there is a theater below 42nd St (or east of Times Square for that matter)
