Very interested

The last jukebox musical I loved was American Idiot, but I’m hoping this transfers to Broadway.

Given the raves it's gotten at ART I think it will

Wondering if anyone here can help - I’m looking for a single ticket to any remaining show - preferably the 6/14 matinee! TIA
You would need a time machine as well as a ticket to attend a performance on 6/14.

The show is at 2pm and not 3pm.

Ah, yes. The heat has gotten to my brain - I mean 7/14!

Has anyone done the cancellation line for this (if there even is one)? I waited until last minute (my bad) and don't know if I should make the trip to Cambridge from NYC if I likely won't get in. Or if anyone's selling a ticket(s), I'll take it off your hands. :)

Going to Boston on Thursday. I have been desperately searching for a ticket for this Thursday's performance. Any info on rush or cancellation tickets? Thanks.

I did standing room a few weeks ago on a Friday. I got to the theater at 10:30ish and was third in line. The first two people got there at 10. If I recall correctly, there were 11 standing room tickets. If there are any cancellations at that point in the morning, they release those as well.
It was a great view!
I saw this tonight. It definitely was enjoyable and I do hope for it to come to Broadway, but it definitely needs some work. It was just difficult with how everything was supposed to fit together and who is supposed to be the star of the show.
The cast is great though.

People have been getting there at 4am for SRO now plus they do have a cancellation line which was about 30 people on Sunday when I went again. Also no SRO available for closing matinee or evening.
I'm going to the matinee performance tomorrow. In the past have the cast done the stage door between shows? I recognize that tomorrow may be different because it's the last day.

I was there last Sunday matinee and not many came out between shows. Steven Spielberg was there though and he was backstage. I also went to the evening show and mostly everyone came out.
Saw the show for the third time at the Wednesday matinee and all of the cast came out to the lobby and were signing. Had a great picture with Elizabeth Stanley - who is phenomenal in the show. Love the show (and I am 60 years old); enough to have seen it 3 times. I believe this will be the next sensation when it hits Broadway. My recommendation is to get tickets as soon as they are available; I know I will.
Saw this last night and I went in really wanting to love it. The cast is insanely talented. The music is fantastic. The book is a complete mess. Complete disaster. I hope they work on it before Broadway.
Also, I’d love to see Laurel Harris as MJ...the entire time she was onstage I wanted to hear her.

Same, her presence is unbelievably strong.
I saw the matinee performance today.
I largely agree with what others have written: There's a lot of really well done and powerful material, but the book needs focus, both in terms of subject matter and characters. Derek Klena's character in particular was underwritten IMO. I've heard other reviews claim the same for Sean Allan Krill's Steve Healy, but I felt like he did enough with the material that I was still interested in his character.
All this being said, I was invested enough in the story that most of the time I forgot I was watching a jukebox musical. The dialogue was really sharp, and performances were excellent all around. Both my sixty-something mom and I had a great time and felt the two-hour drive to Boston was well-worth it. I'm definitely rooting for this one to continue to shape up and (hopefully) transfer to New York.
One question - during the dialogue before "Hand in My Pocket", the house projections were flickering in and out. Was that supposed to be an intentional commentary on the dysfunction of suburban life, or a technical fluke?

I agree the book needs work, especially Act I. I’m glad you mention the flickering/ out of focus projection. I saw the show on Saturday, And the flickering and blurriness we’re both in. I’m glad to hear that it was on purpose rather than a technical fluke. It was great use of the projections.

"I agree the book needs work, especially Act I."
I am worried about what might happen if they work on Act 1, as it seems like there isn't any extra "fat" they can get rid of (Except maybe the Phoenix/Frankie stuff, but how would "You Outta Know" happened?)
