Michael Arden to direct musical adaptation of THE LOST BOYS, with music by The Rescues — Page 7

Any discount codes yet? ;)

I'm just tired of the $300 orchestra seats and the big chunk of all center and aisle seats that aren't even on sale yet. Most show are doing this now and it's annoying. I'll wait for a good code, or TKTS, and I'm sure I'll get something. Glad to know a code should come out next month, thanks!

Newly announced to be joining them are Ryan Behan, Grace Capeless, Mateus Leite Cardoso, Ben Crawford, Dominic Dorset, Carissa Gaughran, Ashley Jenkins, Liesie Kelly, Cameron Loyal, Pierre Marais, Mason Olshavsky, Hank Santos, Colin Trudell, DeLaney Westfall, and Pierce Wheeler.

Aisle seats tend to be held for press and VIPs, but holding back so many for such a wide range is odd.

Seat needs add up quickly. Creative team, producers, and potential investors in previews. Press and VIPs for all performances. Tony voters post-opening through early June. House seats at all performances and previews for those with a contractual allocation.

Also, considering MAYBE HAPPY ENDING's aggressive sightline issues, I don't blame them for holding a bunch of center aisle seats for the people who need to be able to have the best view of the show until they have a better sense of how it's playing.

Now, will they need 25 aisle pair per night + the others they've held just off the aisle? Probably not, but they can release some back. And if you feel the need to buy NOW for this show, have I got a bridge to sell you...

I follow my dynamic buying model now. I wait. It's simple and easy.

There aren't really any new musicals this season. The season of the play.

Beaches and Titanique count as “new” musicals? Interesting.

Very strange. Not only does he forget about Titanique and Beaches, but he doesn't seem to realize that the lack of new musicals seems to be driven by the fact that so many theaters are full, not empty.

Paul made his post on empty theaters prior to Titanique and Beaches’ announcements.

Sutton Ross said: "What a wild thing to say. The new musicals of the season are Queen of Versailles, The Lost Boys, Schmigadoon, Beaches, Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York), and Titanique. Just because it's a weak season doesn't mean they don't exist, sorry!"

"really any" = "not a lot" It's not a "wild" thing to say. It's not that they don't exist (it's obvious they do) - there aren't really any/not a lot compared to recent years. It's a "play season".

This year there are 6 new musicals. (the majority of eligible shows, in category, will be nominated for a Tony).

Last year there were - 16. The year before - 15. That's more than double the amount of this years' offerings.
