TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD Previews — Page 9

I saw show today
And while a good show; Ferryman still my top play of season.
But I have to say Gideon was the highlight of this production for me. He was so good as Dill.
Celia was perfection too but Gideon was my favorite and I hope tony committee doesn’t forget him

Saw this yesterday and I found it to be stunning. What a gorgeous ensemble, all on the top of their games.

Celia winning the Tony would be richly deserved. Sometime I would just look at her and get emotional. She's appears so small but so powerful onstage, the perfect representation of a young girl and a woman looking back on her life. Some of her line readings will be forever etched in my memory. Does she have a good chance at winning? The only plays coming that could conceivably give her some strong competition are Glengarry, Gary, and King Lear.

I want Celia to win, too. But she most likely will have Glenda Jackson, Laurie Metcalf, Annette Benning, Elaine May, Andrea Martin and *possibly* Keri Russell to compete with. Should be for an interesting race

Glengarry will be ineligible for this season, no?"



Oh I was assuming she was going featured. If she's lead, I don't even know if she'll get the nomination. Which is a shame.

I don't think any of the supporting women in The Ferryman are doing anything particularly Tony worthy. I think Celia's biggest competition if she goes featured will be from Joan Allen in The Waverly Gallery.

Is merchandise still not available? Also, is opening night through invite only?

Saw this last night and liked it a lot.

Absolutely avoid the rear mezz. It’s cramped and the overhang from the balcony is horrible.

Unfortunately, this was one of the worst audiences I’ve encountered in a long time. Constant cell phones and alarms going off, candies and bags being loudly opened and people talking.

I was also appalled at how loud the ushers in the mezzanine were, talking in full voice and CONSTANTLY flashing their flashlights over and over and over again. Truly obnoxious and frustrating. It really affected my enjoyment of the show.

Thank you. I go to the theatre almost every week so I’ve had to get used to the horrible behavior that seems to get worse every year.

I thought Scott Rudin was quite strict about late seating? So many people arrived late and the usher used his flashlight to seat them right in the middle of scenes at least five times. He waved it all over and then would go hang out at the top of the mezz and talk extremely loudly on and off throughout the entire three hour play.

I was also there last night, and can attest to this horrendous audience behavior. Phones and alarms were basically a constant. Some absolutely egregious candy crinkling was occurring too -- It was like someone brought in a Sun Chips bag circa 2008. I also had to tell a man to put his phone away, because in the middle of act 1 he was just scrolling absent minded-ly and completely distracted me from an entire scene. Why are you at a play if you're going to scroll on your phone? Just don't come.

I will say -- I don't recall any pre-show announcement about phones, and the way that Act II starts is very sudden, so people must have forgotten to turn then off then as well. They should at least add something to the playbill.

Ed Harris- a great choice to take over this role!
