Sueleen, I wish you could have been there, too!
It was a WOW!
A friend who was there tonight has purchased a ticket to see it again tomorrow.
What a great night! I'm glad I finally got to hear Victor Garber sing in person. The whole cast was great. If I could I definitely would go again tomorrow.
A (non-BWW) friend just posted:
had the privilege of seeing Knickerbocker Holiday at Alice Tully tonight with Kelli O'Hara and Victor Garber. However, the real star of the show was Weill's sublime orchestrations--September Song peeled the soul off the top of my fu*king head. Just... mind-blowingly great.
...no thanks to the weather, I'm guessing there may be cancellation tickets available.
Head over to Alice Tully to see if you can grab one!
PalJoey, the orchestrations are absolutely sublime. Gorgeous, gorgeous!
Stars on stage! Stars in the audience!
Tonight's your last chance to catch this gem!

What was the running time for last night performance? With the snow today, I wish I bought tickets for last night performance. I have to plan how to get home after the show tonight so the running time will be very helpful. Thank you.
It ended last night about 10:20.
The estimated running time was 2.5 hours, and it came in just slightly under that.

Thank you so much for the information. I hope I can make it tonight.
Do try! It will be SO worth it!
Glorious. Absolutely Glorious. Thanks, Addy. Great seeing you onstage tonight!
Kelli is so glamorous as always! Wish I coulda been at the show, but I'll definitely be buying the cd when it comes out.
Everyone should get the CD when it comes out. It was gorgeously performed concert of a fascinating score.
While you're waiting for the CD, here are some photos that capture some of the performance for you.
(and then look at them again when the CD is released!)

I received a copy at the Chorale Gala a couple of weeks ago and can't stop listening to it. Absolutely wonderful.
Those voices! Those witty words! Those magnificent melodies!
