‘Proof’ Revival to Open at A Shubert theatre but not THE Shubert Theatre

TarHeelAlan said: "This is being advertised as a "strictly limited engagement." Anyone know anything about how long the run is supposed to be?"

These sort of productions are typically 12-16 weeks.


"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."

Alex Kulak2 said: "I wonder who they'll get for Hal. It could work with an actor of any race, but if Hal is a white actor, I think it'll bring in a really interesting dynamic with his relationship to Robert (and his attempts to publishhis work after his death) that isn't usually present in the show."

Will Andrew Barth Feldman be available?

Play Esq. said: "Two incredible revivals lead by outstanding actors announced on the same day…feels like Christmas."

Either I am losing it or you are thinking of Jeffrey Wright and Octavia Spencer in Death of a Salesman. Unless I am remembering incorrectly, that is a movie, not a play revival.

They're likely talking about Carrie Coon in Bug

Correct...Bug instantly became my number one show of the seasons with Proof closely behind.

Thanks. I did forget about that one. I never get to see the winter production at MTC, so I probably unconsciously chucked it from the memory bank. I would love to see Carrie Coon live, but not enough to incur the additional expense of another trip to NYC, particularly in winter.

God, I really hope they come to their senses and retain the intermission. Proof is such a classically structured, old-fashioned Broadway play. The lights-out moment after the revelation at the end of Act One can be truly thrilling. I remember people gasping and talking about it all through the interval during the original production.


"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

How is the mezz in the Booth? I know the theater is tiny, but I've only ever sat in the orchestra there and I am not paying those orchestra pricecs. From pictures on Seatplan and A View From it looks like the barrier in front of the mezz is tall and could potentially block your view if you were a few rows back. But I am also fairly tall (6'2") so it may not be an issue for me.

It’s iconic to the point of almost being cliché! I hope they keep the intermission.

I sat in the last row of the mezz for Little Bear Ridge Road yesterday and had a great view

Thanks. I meant more for the first few rows if that wall at the front is distracting. But maybe I should just go further back

Interesting that it shows the running time as two hours no intermission, Kail is pulling a Mantello
"

It's already been updated to "two hours with intermission," so they changed their minds or it was an error
