Posted: 11/6/10 at 12:02pmThis show TRACES opened in Chicago to raves yesterday. Apparently it's a new version of a show that's played around the world...Does anyone know if its going to Broadway? I asked someone in the lobby and they said it was going to Los Angeles next, and then they would decide. I thought it was AMAZING. It was sort of like STOMP meets cirque. There also some great moments of music and visuals that were stunning.

Posted: 11/6/10 at 5:22pmI wouldn't be surprised... it got GREAT reviews, and word of mouth has been great as well. I could see this opening for a limited run in NY. Like along the lines as Soul of Shaolin... just to give the theatre a source of income between shows.

Posted: 11/6/10 at 11:13pmA few friends were invited to a preview and they absolutely RAVED about it. They described it as a mix between Cirque du Soliel, Stomp, and a Broadway Musical. Never heard of this before but I just may have to check it out...

Posted: 11/8/10 at 10:35pmIt's hitting the left coast in January. I just bought tickets yesterday since I was near Hollywood anyway and could avoid TicketBastard.

Posted: 11/9/10 at 2:04amI'm sure they'd love a stop in NY (it's more an Off-Broadway show) but my understanding is that they're trying to get a full US Tour going after their initial long runs in Chicago, LA and (I think) Denver.

It's already played Broadway. Sort of. Well, Off-Broadway I guess.
It ran at the Victory Theatre (next to Hilton/Foxwood) a few years ago (2008?). But I think there's an extra cast member in the show now. But yah, I would love to see this again. It's just amazing watching them do what they do.
