Is Chris Herzberger no longer the SVP of Universal Theatrical Productions?

His name doesn’t seem to be included in this NBC Universal article about the show and there’s no mention of his involvement on the SEC filing
Death Becomes Her is produced by Universal Theatrical Group (UTG), overseen by Jimmy Horowitz (Chairman of Business Affairs and Operations, NBCUniversal), and led by Lowe Cunningham (Vice President of Creative Development and Production) who oversees on behalf of UTG.”

Saw this twice in Chicago, once from 2nd row and once from row L. From that experience, the effects do not play as well the closer you are. I much preferred sitting back further for this one, although my usual preference is to be in the first few rows. Hope that helps!

The show in Chicago had two palm tree like awnings that adorned the sides of the proscenium. If they were to expand the shows false proscenium it’s possible those pieces will cover the boxes, a la the windmill and elephant at Moulin Rouge.


As far as views would go, I’d recommend sitting on the left side of the houseotherwise your view of stair set piece might be blocked.

That's great insight, thank you!
