Anyone going tonight to the show? If so post what the energy is like in the Richard Rodgers! So sad that the show is winding down to its final weeks.

Merry Christmas to all!

Forgot it's tonight. I wish I could be there. I'm sure lotto will be insane.

Lotto was crowded, not too insane though. And fyi lotto loser tickets are now $51.50, not $41.50.

Can any one who was there tell us if the stage door was crowded???

I was there, the energy was awesome. I haven't seen ITH since before Lin left, so this was special for me. The stagedoor crowd seemed pretty tame, not overly crowded and not really crazy.

Who's stepping in for Piragua Guy?

Also, I picked up a few week old, maybe two, playbill from the box office yesterday, and Noah Rivera wasn't listen. I mean, I'm sure he's in the show as he recently went on for Sonny and Usnavi. What happened to him?

Noah Rivera was injured maybe a few months ago, and I'm not sure if he's unable to finish the Broadway run.

Just another general fyi for those trying to catch Heights before it closes: they were selling standing room after the lotto tonight, and the price of sro tickets is also now $51.50

Ha, that was pretty much my reaction! I know it's the last week and all, and hey if they can get $51.50 for their sro spots then more power to 'em, it's a business, but... yeah, $51.50 for partial view standing room.

(And I completely disagree with the way the people running lotto are always "its partial view, but you don't miss *anything*" when describing those rear orch and sro views, but that's a rant for another time.)

Where are people usually "placed" when they get a SRO?

SRO at the RR is at the back of the orchestra, standing behind the last row of orch seats.

"I thought he was done when the show closed."

Until the movie is made, he is done when the show closes.

OHHH ok, thank you. I got confused, but it was Eliseo Roman that was leaving before the show actually closed. And I can't wait for the movie!
