Running time for HEDDA?#1

Does anyone know how long the show generally runs? Or more specifically how long this production runs?

On the official site it says TBA but I was curious if anyone had seen the dress rehearsal or anything or had a general idea based on previous productions. Thanks in advance.

It feels like a lifetime. Saw it in sydney with Cate Blanchet and it was more than 3. Glad to hear that it is shorter here.

A little known fact is that in the original screenplay, Pan's Labyrinth was Pan's FLAByrinth. Hmmmmmmm...glad they changed it.

don't quote me on that. that does seem quite long but maybe Mary Louise Parker can speed up the dialogue as fast as she deals the green plants

For anyone who didn't catch it in the other threads, it's "officially" 2 hours and 5 minutes, with one 15 minute intermission (so 2 hours and 20 minutes total).

The signs in the lobby indicated acts of 65 and 45 minutes with the 15 minute intermission, which would be 2:05 total. The show ended up being about 2:15 total last night as it started 5 minutes late and I was on the street at 10:20.
