Every seat in the balcony is less than $100.

My orchestra seats were less than 300. Heck they were less than 200... Or I never would have purchased them. 

 

The show is a ridiculous romp that made us laugh and squeal in absolute delight.

think you're on the Lion King ticketing site.

Bad attempt at a joke, since The Lion King doesn't have any $300 tickets.

So is this being extended or not?

I love how many times this show gets on a roll where the laughter from one joke spills over into the next joke and the energy builds on itself into the most deliriously stupid crescendo possible. I legit couldn’t breathe at some points I was laughing so hard. It’s like if Mark Rylance had dropped acid and chewed on an adrenaline gland before going onstage as Olivia - absolutely unhinged and yet bizarrely refined and always on target. If they don’t make a pro-shot of this I may cry.

Shows advertise the number of weeks & the limited nature of their engagement allllll the time even when extensions are already built into contracts. It’s just a method of advertising to fill in the earlier performances.

Saw the 5p show today, and, for me, the show absolutely lost some of its downtown magic, mainly owing to the seemingly humorless theatregoers in my vicinity that were probably only there to see the current hot ticket. I'm guessing the 8:30p Saturday audience is more receptive, but the wet blankets around me this afternoon bummed me out.

I was also at the 5pm show and everyone around me seemed to be having a good time. I personally found this to be one of the funniest shows I’ve seen in years. Incredibly ridiculous, but I loved every second of it.

I was also at today’s 5pm show. My second time already. I was in the balcony and everyone around me loved it. It’s so silly and doesn’t take itself seriously. I’ll be back for a round 3 in August.

Extended though November 10th after a sellout limited run. Hopefully more to follow !

I'd love to see this show do a small regional tour. Put it in PTown!

How you can share the extension without the announcement video?

Yeah! Birthday present coming this October!!

I cheer this news, but as I will not be in NY until late November, I am praying for an additional extension. C'mon Cole, take us through the holidays!

What are the chances they might film this for release? I'm not familiar with the show, but is it something that would come across on screen?

Oh Mary! has broken the Lyceum's 8-performance house record, grossing $1,054,998.00 for the week ending 7/21. It's the first time any show there has reached $1 million. Go, Cole!

I'd wondered this when they announced the B'way transfer. Maybe it was being transferred with the plans/contracts already in place for a live-capture. Could see this being a streaming (Hulu or Max or Apple etc.) thing. I would be thrilled to have this insanity preserved with the current cast!

Looks like the Lyceum finally has a hit.

I won’t stress “finally” that much, as The Play That Goes Wrong hit the black at this venue just six years ago.

I haven’t heard any plans for filming- and honestly, how often do straight plays get filmed these days?- but I had heard there were plans for further extensions if it seemed viable. If it’s reliably turning in these grosses, I can’t imagine this will be its only extension. It’s also a low cost show to run, which helps immensely.

My wish has come true! Snagged two tickets for Oct. 25.

And sure looks to me that the prices have gone up....

Insanely up. No promo codes of course but it's just an entire block of $350 for any good seat. Crazy but good for them.
