Love.

Posted: 9/20/21 at 11:59amInteresting they changed it so late. It's been orange and blue for literally years at this point. Right?

Maybe they are trying to create a more modern image ( the production was announced so long ago and people have held on to tickets for about 2 years now)?
Are they also thinking of some changes in the staging. Hugh posted a long dance training session with Warren Carlyle sometime ago. More recently, he showed an additional clip from that session, but he is now saying it will/can be part of the finale? Tap dance in The Music Man?

Great ensemble of singers and dancers. Still wish there was more diversity all around, principals included.

They appear to have switched ad agencies (SpotCo to RPM), which combined with Rudin’s departure is a good reason for a refresh of the campaign.
46 in the cast! Huge by modern Broadway standards. (It was also announced that Paradise Square will have 38 in the cast)
Hope that quartet will be able to blend appropriately. They’re all talented individually.

On the dates I was looking to buy the only tickets left were $714 orchestra seats (those were not resale). WOW! I am glad they are doing so well, but I'll never be able to afford this show. To the folks with the bread to buy those, enjoy! It looks like its going to be amazing.

I feel that. I’ve been waiting for the $99 seats to be released. Can’t afford anything more.

Agreed. $150 is about as high as I go these days (for something I'm dying to see). There's nothing close to that. Maybe later in the run.

$99 seats have been available since the day tickets went on sale over 2 years ago. They released more recently on the very far sides of the mezzanine, and you can find them if you look. Surprisingly, nothing they've sold so far has been marked partial view, although I find that kind of hard to believe. At this point, I think the actual partial views are the only cheap seats left to be released.

You can use the app to search by price. It's easier than going through dates, since there aren't many left.
Actually, never mind. They took away that option on the app. If you go through dates on the website, just look for the ones that have the mezzanine price starting at $99, then lower to price bar to see where they are. Pretty much all of the dates show $99 as the low price in the orchestra, but those are the wheelchair accessible seats. None of the standard $99 seats have been in the orchestra, so far.
