My question is how much did they pay Andrew Rannells and Todrick Hall to show up to the opening?

This looks so dreadfully average, cheap, and boring."
Literally looks like something you'd see at a charity event without any kind of rehearsal. Truly feel bad for anyone that paid for a ticket to this.

For those looking to see this show, I have 2 (maybe 3) tickets to that my friends wouldn't be able to use. They're for this Sunday, November 26 at 1pm. Please PM me if you want them, they're only $5.50 each (reservation fee I paid for each ticket).
Edit: tickets have been claimed.

show time is in a hour for today's matinee......ticketmaster has MANY (like more than half the theatre) available for sale.

And that’s in addition to the comps they are giving out for tonight’s show that remain unclaimed. Seriously, they should just close this already.

Posted: 11/24/17 at 7:44pmDoes anybody have a way to get comps? If I walk up to the theatre can I just ask for a comp? They're not selling so it may be plausible. Do they offer rush for this?

"Home for the Holidays is unlikely to remind you much of home, unless you were raised in a department-store elevator. "
Okay, this is now officially my favourite review quote of all time.

This tweet made me laugh to no end. I was so confused when Josh Groban said he was getting out of rehearsal for Home for the Holidays https://twitter.com/kathryng/status/936477313147047936

"My question is how much did they pay Andrew Rannells and Todrick Hall to show up to the opening?"
Like Sylvia Miles, these two lower-mid-tier "celebrities" would show up to the opening of an envelope, if they had the slightest suspicion a camera would be present.

Whizzer wrote (last month): "Did you see Donny and Marie's Christmas? Dead serious, Marie looks out at the audience and says. Now I'm going to attempt to sing a genre I've never sung in public before: opera!!"
And then the adorable little clown didn't even sing opera - she sang "Pie Jesu" from Lloyd Webber's Requiem, a sort of elementary mass-lite.

and now we anxiously await how low their grosses will be? +/- from last week's grosses? Can their grosses go any lower?

I wonder how they're even going to hold on for 6 weeks. Could someone explain their comp ticket situation to me? I know usually you can be part of a club-like thing where you can pay a fee to receive them throughout the year, but with their current numbers, is it different?

Based on the fact they had a $13 average ticket price during Thanksgiving week(typically a busy weekend), I'd guess and say that out of the 3,500 that saw the show, about 2,500 had comps.Comps tend to go to larger businesses, sponsors, friends of the cast & crew. But it seems like this show is giving them out to anyone who wants them just to get some butts in the seats. Averaging just under 450 people per show can't look good, but imagine if it was only 150 per show without comps.

This was hands down the worst show I have ever seen produced on Broadway.
Thankfully we had comps but my god what pandering amateurish vanity bull**** .
The producers should be ashamed and the performers should be absolutely embarrassed to be involved
My friend turned to me at one point and said "this show has somehow made me hate Christmas"
Also can we talk about the irony that Mariah Carey wannabe Bianca Ryan doesn't get to actually sing the big Mariah number but Josh does for some inexplicable reason, one of many insane and assinine choices in this.
also dear Danny Aiello, the word Tree IS NOT PRONOUNCED AS THREE!

I saw this through comps and don't get the absolute hatred for this show, yes it is super cheesy and not something I think ever needed to be on Broadway but it was also 80 minutes of christmas songs that I (and most people) enjoy so it didn't send me running for the hills. Candice Glover was great and it was just the right length of time so it didn't feel endless. I wish there was a song list or some insert in the Playbill because I didn't recognize one or two of the songs, it could be they ran out of space since everyone's bio was two pages long. I would rather see this another ten times than the Parisian Woman or The Children ever again.

Posted: 12/10/17 at 2:09pmBut you saw it through comps. Would you have paid $50 or more to see this? There's a reason it's not selling.

Pricing is a whole separate issue, I agree that the ticket prices for this show are ridiculous- Who's Holiday (loved that show) has insane prices also.

Actually, cost CAN make a difference...in other words, a patron could easily be even MORE annoyed with a weak/disliked show by thinking about how much money they've thrown away, likewise, for many it's easy to think: meh, at least I didn't pay for it.

Posted: 12/12/17 at 7:13pmI'm going into the city Wednesday, if I can get to the city by 7 can I get a comp or rush for this mess? I truly want to see how terrible it is.

A comp? from where?
A rush ticket.....pretty sure you can.
Home For The Holidays on Broadway#124
Posted: 12/12/17 at 8:38pmI don't know why they're keeping this open still, but okay! Just doesn't make too much financial sense to me.
