I have never seen anything like this commercial for Broadway! Im so many things all at once from this 30 seconds. Personally think it gets the job done of defining the show. Thoughts?

The commercial was good. Yeah, you girls were very funny. Did you like the show? I didn't hate it, but I was bored out of my mind, I hope I wasn't annoying, changing positions every 5 minutes. Oh, and I won't reveal what you told me about a show's closing.

FYI for all the BWWers, the view is a bit obstructed on the 1st row of the balcony.

BTW, I didn't even mention the show that is allegedly closing. I have no idea why you say I am starting a rumor of any kind? LOL! You need psychiatric help.

Probably the best Broadway commercial ever. Not exactly saying much, but it really is great.

I don't think it's as good as that West Side Story advert...the transition from the suspense bits to the musical performance bits isn't as seamless as it is in the WSS advertisement.

(But I still really really like it)

Great commercial for a great show. Hard to believe someone could be bored with a score and staging as strong as this.After this years collection of crappy sets it's great to see the magic that comes from some chairs and a couple of planks.

That commercial is excellent. Gorgeous. Plus it makes me curious to know more about the show.

The Chicago movie is something I've personally seen like it.

The whole jumping sideways with tamborines evokes a bumming-out newsies feel. Meh.

But otherwise, the beautiful lens flares and approach was ballsy and I'm glad to see spotco's getting back on their game.
