i really have nothing to say, just posting my love for movin out! so this post wasnt worthless, heres a little review of when i saw the show on tour:
the opening notes burst out, scaring me half to death. from that moment on, i was entranced. the dancing was beautiful and moving. darren holden was an amazing singer (the few songs i knew i couldve sworn it was a billy joel concert). some songs were fun, some were very moving. the dancers did an amazing job conveying their emotions. i felt everything they felt even though they did not say one word. (i felt judys emotions during the act 1 finale. she was so amazing/heartbreaking to watch.) all in all, this show was just amazing, and i would go again in a heartbeat. I LOVE MOVIN OUT! TARZAN SHOULD NOT BE KICKING IT OUT! (mini rant over)

Posted: 9/3/05 at 8:23pmi saw movin' out last night and I thought it was really good although it's not my type of show. Afterwards my parents told me that theyre goign to Billy Joels cousin's wedding which I thought was pretty cool although I doubt he'll be there. I really wanna see Tarzan the musical. I saw a Tarzan show at Disney World this summer and I really liked it, so I imagine it would be even better on broadway.

Posted: 9/3/05 at 8:47pmThe show is two hours long. It is over at a little before 10/ The leads come out very quickly. I got to the stage door at 9:58 and left at 10:06 with all the leads signatures.

Posted: 9/4/05 at 2:04amI'm a little confused! Do the actors sing the songs or are they just played in the background? Is there any talking in the show or not? I'm bringing my girlfriend to see it on broadway in October for her birthday(it's a surprise), and I was just curious about things.

Posted: 9/4/05 at 2:28amtheres a band that performs all the songs on an upper stage. the dancers act out the story through dance onstage. so all the songs are sung by a singer/band and the action is dnaced. there is NO dialoue. i will once again say its incredibly moving and beautiful, and just a good time.

Posted: 9/4/05 at 4:39amThank you YankeesFan175, I was confused by previous comments, so thanks for clearing that up for me. I normally don't like shows with no dialogue but I loved CONTACT, so I'm sure I'll like this because I already like the music and I love dancing. I can't wait to see it.

Nice to see so many positive posts lately about this show.
I always thought this show got disrespected on this board.

Posted: 9/4/05 at 7:55amI got emotional at the end of Act 1 when they present the american flag to the widow, some around me were crying.
#36re: Movin' Out
Posted: 9/4/05 at 10:49amAct 1 ending is so touching! It really is quite moving and depressing. I saw Mabel Modorino(spl) as Judy and she was amzing, I can't imagine anyone being better than her.

bostonbroadwayfan, i saw julieta gros on tour, too. i thought she was amazing! i can still remember just the look on her face and the look in her eyes. i will never forget it!
jarred03, no problem! if youve got any other questions about the show, you can post or PM me, ill do my best to answer! the show itself can get a little confusing b/c theres no dialogue. so if youve got any questions, ask away!

Posted: 9/4/05 at 3:35pmI saw Ashley Tuttle as Judy 3 times and she was amazing. Esp. her dancing en pointe...that was incredible. I was like embarassed to go back to class and put on my pointe shoes after seeing her dance...lol

I've only seen Movin' Out on tour, but I totally fell in love with the production. It's so sad to see it close on Broadway. I agree...the CD is amazing. It's one of the CDs that is constantly on the playlist in my car. :)

Posted: 9/4/05 at 10:46pmIt's so obvious that it closed for stupid Discney. It could ahve lasted much longer, I feel sorry for the cast members, they're so perfect in their roles. I wish Disney would just stop adding more shows.

Does anybody know what row the orchestra starts at? I heard row CC is first, but Ticketmaster told me row A is?
Thanks!

Posted: 9/5/05 at 2:25pmrow A is the second row, row CC is the first and usually those are the student rush tickets you buy at the theater.

Can anyone fill me in on the view from Row A? I'm concerned as the stage is pretty high. And is rush really confined to students? How does that work? Last time I saw the show the people in CC certainly were unusual for students - older middle-age.
I love the show and plan to see it again before it closes. The music is great, Michael Cavanaugh is wonderful, and the dancing is amazing. I think what impresses me most is how expressive the dancers are - whether they are expressing joy or sorrow or anger, it's all right there.

Posted: 10/7/05 at 5:52pmI know after i see this musical i'll be so jealous of ever dancer on that stage.
#48re: Movin' Out
Posted: 10/7/05 at 5:58pmI saw Ashley Tuttle a few days ago and yes, she is wonderful...easily the best female I saw--Elizabeth was out to be fair...
#49re: Movin' Out
Posted: 10/7/05 at 7:56pmOoooh, it seems like no one sees Elizabeth, everyone I know that went didn't see her lol.
