Pippin to Open at the Music Box in March — Page 6

Where the #&@# is the discount code? Even Matilda has finally tossed us a meager little discount code. Is Pippin really selling so well that they aren't going to offer anything?

I'm sure there will be a discount code in the coming weeks. They literally just announced the cast and tickets went on sale like barely three weeks ago.

Really interesting interview. I'm excited to see what changes they've made to the finale. I remember thinking the finale needed a bit more excitement and paled in comparison to the end of act I. It's gonna be great!

If someone is sitting in the rear orchestra (that would be me), would that person's view of the aerialists be blocked by the mezzanine overhang? I bought the tickets already, but I'm trying to temper my expectations. I usually love the rear orchestra of the Music Box, but I've never seen a show there that used circus performers. Any opinions?

So after re-reading the article, a couple of things caught my attention:

"The basic shell of the show will remain in tact, but Diane wants to take that synthesis of styles a step further and incorporate even more dance and circus elements."

I thought the show was spectacular as it was, so I hope they don't go overboard with the circus elements.

"One of the more significant changes to the show we addressed this week will occur during the finale. Diane has a new exciting concept that adds an element of danger and will make the scene that much more potent."

I hope someone here will post what it is under a "Spoiler Alert".

Except that the old audiences in the 70s didn't even have an Act II...
