I'm jealous, Leia. Wesley is awesome. I would love to see his and Savannah's last show but I'm going to be in Baltimore that day. Otherwise, I would so be there!! I expect a full report!

I thought Savannah was wonderful. She has a terrific voice and excellent comedic timing. And Wesley Taylor made a HELL of a Broadway debut as Franz. I look forward to seeing him in The Addams Family.

I never got to see Amy. I only saw Savannah and I thought she was fantastic. But I am really excited to see Kerry Butler take on Sherrie. I will definitely have to make a trip back to NYC to see her.

The news for Rock of Ages just gets better and better. It's great that the core cast has extended!

Also can't wait to see Mitchell Jarvis on Law and Order! Wish I knew exact air date as I don't usually watch the show.

Is Mitch on Twitter?

Based on the season premiere I tried to figure out which day Mitch would be on and came up with October 21st? Don't quote me on it there though.. I'm sure the ROA twitter will say something

These discount codes might have been posted already but here they are again. I noticed that some of the weekend shows in October are only selling premium seats now so I'm guessing all other seats are sold out. :)

The code "ROAMSS" is good for all performances through October 4th and will take 25% off the ticket price. I tried it on every day of the week and it worked.

"SAVE16" is good through November 1st but not good for Friday night or either performance on Saturday. You can see the ticket prices here:

I had a friend that had seats in Row P center. It was the aisle. I asked him how the seats were and in he said they were fine. He got to see everything.

Wes And Savannah's Last Show:

To start off I was sitting next to Savannah's mom which was pretty cool. Nathan Lane and several Spring Awakening cast members were there. You could feel the energy in the audience it was absolutely crazy. Right after Hit Me With Your Best Shot, everybody jumped up and Wes got a standing O for a few minutes. Lauren gave him a huge bar of chocolate for his last bow and Sav got a bunch of flowers.
Videos are actually on youtube for Don't Stop Believin and right when they walked off stage too.

Also spotted Adam Shankman there, which made my little SYTYCD-loving heart happy. And Jeremy Woodard and Constantine were both standing in the back of the orchestra at certain points during the show.

The highlight of the night for me was probably Carpinello kissing Wesley, though.

Yes, Carpinello kissing Wesley was hysterical. The look on his face after.... I wish I could have gotten a photo of that! And I loved Jeremy Jordan as Drew. Aside from the hideous wig LOL I liked him much better than Constantine.
Though I'm sad Wesley is leaving, I'm looking forward to seeing Tom Lenk on Saturday!

OMG, James Carpinello kissing Wesley was hysterical. Spoke to Wesley about it after the show. He said that he knew James was going to kiss him but he did not know when, or that he was going to pull him up on the stage and do the microphone thing.

Wait what microphone thing?

during Come On Feel the Noise, James takes the microphone and does some suggestive things with it, he usually does it to Angel as her character is the "Young Groupie", instead of pulling Angel up on the stage, James pulled Wes up and did it to him. I also notice Ericka (Waitress #1) being much more playful with Wes when he hits her butt with the plastic case.

So I saw this twice, because I really loved it. I saw Wesley's final show, which had incredible energy, and he was just as fun as I thought he'd be. I saw Jeremy Jordan on for Drew the first time and Constantine in the second. Jeremy blew Constantine out of the water. He and Savannah fit SO well together - Constantine is, to my mind, way too old for the part, and though I saw him with Ericka Hunter and not Kerry Butler, I just wasn't feeling it at all. Jeremy's voice was far stronger and more pure.

Savannah was fab, I'm glad I got to see her, and I could quite happily kidnap Mitchell Jarvis and keep him for my very own. He is utterly brilliant! James Carpinello was also all kinds of fantastic. I liked Tom Lenk's Franz too (though I felt Wesley's vocal was stronger and that he embodied the character more) and the audience reaction when Tom stripped off was one of the funniest moments I've ever experienced in a show. Bahayyah Sayed Gaines covering the role of the interviewer was awful, though, overacted and weird choice of a bad English accent...

However, I was driven mad on both occasions by the behaviour of audience members - not the ones who've just come to see the show, but the ones who have seen the show multiple times, whose selfish, noisy and thoughtless behaviour was immensely distracting. I had pondered going to stage door afterwards (would have been my first time) but I just couldn't face dealing with that insanity.

I also saw Bahiyah on in Katherine's track on Sunday night. I thought it was interesting. The British accent was unexpected, but I thought she pulled off "snobby british reporter" very well. I actually LOVE Ericka in Katherine's track, her reporter has a Minnesota accent and is hysterical.

My family wants to go see this show towards the end of the December and we were looking for any discount codes but I can only seem to find codes that are for tickets through the end of November. Does anyone know of any codes that run through the end of December or do I have to wait until next month for the new codes?

Use "ROAMSS" for a 30% discount at least through the end of January. It's good for every performance - even weekends.

I would try to lotto but there are four of us and you only win two tickets, that is if you win, which I never do! lol but Thank you for that other discount code. I will most likely use that one because anything is better then paying full price lol
