David Leveaux is, by all accounts, directing the show under the title of "Creative Consultant" (the Madrids must have a great agent). A man who surely knows his way around musical comedy.......... {sarcasm}

Seems just so random. And without Spears' approval.

Britney has been very vocal on Instagram of things that have irritated or agitated her (often relating to things she was forced to do or approve of, then deleting the caption after a while, but I usually catch them) and she has never mentioned the Broadway show let alone in a negative way.
 

As a big fan and supporter, while she ‘agreed’ and attended a workshop under the conservatorship, there is still the possibility that she enjoyed how her catalogue was being used (especially since they used Glory tracks) and is still fine with the production. She also released the song with Elton John but barely promoted or mentioned it, so it seems she has just been hands-off lately. The whole concept of the show feels right up her alley, so I can’t imagine she would be against it and not say something now.

Notably, Ryann Redmond replaces MiMi Scardulla, and Nathan Levy replaces Raymond J. Lee."

Nothing against Ryann, but I'm sorry to see that MiMi isn't doing this.  I thought her performance was a highlight of the show in DC.  They've definitely added some characters too.  Will be curious to hear about the changes they are making.

According to Ashley Chui's tiktok, they shot some numbers for the press and press is invited next week.  There's a brief flash of a costume in the video and it's different from D.C.  The choreo has apparently also been revised.  Very curious to see how they'll change the set.

Say a prayer for my wallet at first preview.

I received the mailer today with the supposed promo code "MAIL," but when I try to enter it in the Credits/Promo Codes/Gift Cards field on Ticketmaster, it tells me "A minimum of 5 digits is required." Anyone have any ideas or had any luck using that one? (I'm using the app, because when I tried two different browers and my phone it said it was unable to sell me tickets. So it might just be me.)

I had to enter it using the "Unlock" option before selecting your tickets.

Thank you! (Shows how much I use Ticketmaster.)

It looks great! Got my tickets for June

This choreography looks AMAZING!  I'm definitely getting a ticket for that alone, but hopefully the rest of the show is just as good!

Wow, I had no idea what to expect with this, but that looked thrilling!

I’ve been expecting such mediocrity from this project based on what I’d heard and the oversaturation of similar projects also on Broadway.

But WOW. That footage is impressive. Count me in.

I saw this in DC and honestly had a great time. Yes, my expectations were low - but I found it very enjoyable. Curious to see how it’s evolved.

It's definitely evolved.  One of the cast posted an IG story that showed the new set and they've added a lot.  This show is flying under the radar.

That's right! The ball's new set is great, and I even love the stepmother's new look! Also today they were adding the new marquee with the princesses outside the theater
