I am so glad about this, as it was the first musical I was ever in years ago....and I wanted this to succeed.

the curtain was the same old red curtain that is always at the American Airlines theater.

the run time was just under 3 hours...but it flew by!

The only other actress who seems to be out there more is Rachelle Rak. It seems like she's in EVERYTHING and is in the good graces of all the current choreographers.

Trace -- that was a wonderful review. Thanks for sharing.

What is the RUSH policy for this show? Do they reserve certain seats for RUSH or is it just if there are tickets available, then you can get them?

Particularly encouraged by the positive words for Kelli O'Hara.

Remember this thread?

A: It's so exciting that you were able to see the first preview. Sorry it took me a few days to respond to your posting! The Pajama Game was my first show after my freshman year at the university--more years between the two shows than I will reveal here. I played Eddie, the workman with the "weak arm," and the director beefed up the part so that I had a bit more to do than the actor playing the role usually has. Of course I have very special memories of that show (my first and almost my last attempt at a musical and trying to remember choreography), so when I heard that it was being revived on Broadway, naturally I was excited. It's so good to know that they've done a first rate job. If I make it to NY in June, this is one show I hope will still be around to see. Thanks again for the review!
