Robert Downey Jr to make Broadway debut in Ayad Akhtar's McNeal at Lincoln Center

Was weighing whether or not I should go (it's 25 mins by Subway for me). I was worried that they'd be sold out or that it would be crashed on their backend. Maybe I'll go try if it seems like of those are true...

Got through, picked up the side mezz for 114 each (incl fees).   November.  Will see Ragtime on the same trip!

LincTix queue is unpaused now... Current looking at a 43-minute wait. Here's to hoping they still have some tix. I basically just need to avoid Jewish holidays, election day, and closing weekend and I'll be able to go, so that's good.

It took forever, but I also finally got in and had no problems with picking a date and checking out.

I was able to get two tickets for Vanya as well

Does your second ticket need to be someone under the age of 35? I was never able to purchase more than 1 before but saw 2 were an option today - didn’t end up buying 2… but now am curious!

Your guest can be any age - they just check the ticket buyer's ID at the box office.  I routinely take folks with me who are not eligible for LincTix themselves.

I'm sensing a theme LCT is following (if so, I'm here for it!)... Will Ed Helms join one of their 2025 productions?

TotallyEffed said: "It's giving Matrix/Repo Man

Is the magnificent James McMullan retiring? He is totally irreplaceable, what a singular talent.
"

The theatre has never exclusively used McMullan art. A contemporary play about A.I. would make no sense for McMullan. He did Anuncia for them less than a year ago.

His work was not always great. His CAMELOT art was awful. It's always hard to make McMullan art work well in digital formats. He thrives with static images and they just don't translate to the needs of a 21st century ad campaign when the majority of spend is digital. They could probably find a happy compromise utilizing digital and painted elements, but it's tough to get dinosaurs to change.

Is this the first Broadway show to feature a Metahuman Digital Likeness? Or did FLAHOOLEY have one of those?
 

McNEAL will have sets by Michael Yeargan & Jake Barton, costumes by Jennifer Moeller, lighting by Donald Holder, sound by Justin Ellington & Beth Lake, and projections by Jake Barton. AGBO, Anthony and Joe Russo’s independent studio, together with Robert Downey Jr., is unveiling a highly realistic Metahuman Digital Likeness of the actor that will be utilized within the production of McNEAL.  This fall at Lincoln Center Theater, audiences can expect a fusion of technology and theater, featuring Robert Downey Jr. in a new, innovative form.
