Oscar Isaac and Rachel Brosnahan in THE SIGN IN SIDNEY BRUSTEIN’S WINDOW at BAM

It's a flawed but fascinating play. I'm glad they got big names to be in it.

Anyone know how long this is running? Couldn't find the info on the website or article. (or have an idea how long plays at BAM usually run?)
Back in the day, I used to do a monologue from this play. LOVE the whole thing so much.

They tend to be short runs. This will probably be a month give or take. I think that was the case with Cyrano. I wouldn’t sleep on it. The show I just saw at BAM was 4 performances.

For reference, 2020's Medea with Bobby Cannavale and Rose Byrne ran 8 weeks, and this year's Cyrano ran 7. Lungs, which never happened because of the pandemic, was scheduled for only 4.

Quick in and out for member tickets today. Pricing was not as bad as I anticipated, particularly with the 20% member discount.

Trying to plan ahead for the general on sale, what is the high end of the ticket price range? I tend to prefer to sit closer in orch if prices are in my budget. Or maybe I’ll get a membership if with 20% off I’d break even on 2 tickets lol.

whats the price range?
Posted: 10/15/22 at 8:04pm
Orchestra: $154.50 (rear sides) to $259.50 (front center). Rear center is $204.50.
Upper orchestra (some obstructed): $69.50-$144.50
Balcony: $44.50-$84.50
These are before 20% member discount.

I'd never thought I'd see a revival of this under-appreciated play in NYC and with a major star attached to boot. I first read this play when I was in high school and it completely gutted me and shook me to my core.
The original production didn't run very long (101 performances) and received mixed reviews. It starred Gabriel Dell in the title role and Rita Moreno as his wife Iris. Alice Ghostley and Dolph Sweet were also in the cast.
I guess it polarized audiences at the time with its frank observations on race and interracial relations, homosexuality, prostitution and prejudice.
I wonder which version of the play BAM is producing the original 3 act or the revised 2 act version.
I can't wait to see what they do with this.

In 2014, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival did a production. I thought it was strong. Two of the reasons the Broadway production failed, the audience and critics wanted another A RAISIN IN THE SUN and Ms Hasnberry offered a critique of white folx. In the video about the OSF 2014 production, the director and the dramaturg talk about it.

Anne Kaufman directed a truly radiant production at the Goodman Theatre in 2016, I wonder how similar the production will be. I'm sad I won't get to see it unless it transfers but happy this vital play continues to have life.

Anyone going to this tonight?
Posted: 2/8/23 at 12:05am
I went tonight. It’s certainly…unusual. The stars do not disappoint, but the play itself is all over the place. It’s the rare instance where leaving at intermission might have left me with a more favorable opinion.

Has anyone done the TodayTix rush and can comment on seating locations?
