Sara Bareilles, Rebel Wilson to lead THE LITTLE MERMAID at Hollywood Bowl — Page 2

So, it's a concert AND a screening with the Broadway songs? And Chorus Line is happening? That makes sense.

does it make sense? it seems a little strange and convoluted now that I know the whole story. they should just do the songs from the show if they're getting these big stars (even though I never became a fan of most of the new songs besides She's in Love). this whole thing is weird now.

I'm weirdly excited for this. Darren is perfect for Prince Eric! Didn't know Rebel could sing though... (Or can she?)

Also Darren is 29 for those wondering but looks quite young when he's clean shaven.

This got a whole lot less exciting

The whole thing just feels and sounds random.

I assumed that was precisely why they cast Criss.  

 

IDK Darren's voice, with its pop sensibility, should be well suited to this. 

I may be in the minority but I LOVE shows where a live orchestra and singers accompany a film. I actually think events like this one should be done more often. And as many have said, I do think the cast is delightfully inspired. This is one of the few times I wish California was close by!

Presale now on sale, use password VOICE. I snagged some box seats to this, but all sections seem to be on sale. 

Pricey concert, but I got tickets in the superseats and am looking forward to June 4.   I don't know if was mentioned, but for those wanting to see the stage version the first Los Angeles production is playing at the same time in La Mirada, Tim McCoy and Cathy Rigby's theatre, about a half hour south of downtown L.A. - June 3 - 26.

I just got mine. I love sitting in section E because it's closest to the stage without having to sit in those boxes (going alone) AND the stage door is on the left side. Yes, you can stage door. I do it every single time. Can't wait.

I got 7th row section H which I believe are super seats.  They were $105 plus service charge.  I didn't want to spring for a box seat as much as I would prefer to.  And I like section E too, but Ticketmaster didn't let you pick your seats as you know.  They picked for you and I basically just went for a decent seat in the section they kept giving me.   All of us Broadway World chat board members who are going should meet up somehow.  And can you really stagedoor performers at the Bowl?
