Has anyone seen these two? I have one spot open in my schedule and am wondering if I should check it out. I love the movie (the musical), but I’ve never seen Little Shop on stage.

''Is Seymour supposed to be so...hot? wow''

Haven't most all the Seymours in this Off-Broadway revival been ''hot''? Jonathan Groff, Jeremy Jordan, Conrad Ricamora, Skylar Astin, Darren Criss, Andrew Barth Feldman, Matt Doyle, Milo Manheim ... 

Unlike the nerdier, character type, originated by Lee Wilkof. 

Crazier still, four of these Seymours - Groff, Jordan, Ricamora and Criss - were all Tony-nominated this season (plus Joy Woods as a former Audrey)!

true..... beauty is subjective, but Jeremy Jordan and Conrad Ricamora have starred as Seymour, both S.A.H!!!

Thanks!!! We’re going to do it!

 Any particular advice on seating?

To elaborate more on my question, I love sitting close, so I was leaning toward front row center tickets. However, the front row tickets are somewhat picked over. We could be on the far left (A111 and A112). Or we could do the second row and be on the right side, but slightly more center (B104, 103 — those are third and fourth from the aisle).

Any thoughts? (FYI tried to upload a screenshot but had some issues… sorry about that. Hopefully the question is clear enough!)

I don't think there's a bad seat in the theater but when you're that close I think it's better to be centered unless you want the leg room that comes with row A (the theater is quite small so you'll still feel extremely close with row B)

Thanks for your insights. We ended up moving things around in our schedule and found a performance where we could get almost front row center. Looking forward to it!

No buzz but i could pull some random casting out of my hat of dumbassery and we can see what happens next

I’m also on board for this — and she’d reunite with her good friend in the cast right now.

Oh, yes. An excellent next step for her. I hope a show for next season snaps her up quickly (Maybe Wanted?) but that girl deserves another job STAT.

Still no announcement?

If there was an announcement, it would be at the top of this page. But it is very odd that a week out, we have no idea.

At this point, I'd assume that one of two things is going to happen:

1. Announcement this week that Graham and Liz are briefly extending followed by new cast members next month

2. Graham and Liz are leaving as scheduled, understudies going into the leads for a couple weeks (as has happened before), new principals starting sometime next month

This seems correct. I agree

Oh holy sh*t!! 
Madeline was far and away my favorite Sally in this revival of “Cabaret”. I am STOKED for this.

Essentially just three weeks for Christopher. Probably just a filler for whoever is coming in in September.

Shouldn't Nicholas be working on his Chess game? ;)

Madeline Brewer is a f*cking incredible actress (love her TV work) and totally agree on her being my favorite Sally. This casting is terrific.

I might have to make a return visit to see Madeline Brewer. She has major star power.
