"watch your name calling wonder waiter"
He's just calling them like he sees them, Vernon, and when you post just to say you're selling your tickets based on anonymous source reports. you might be reasonably viewed as a troll. Welcome to BWW.
Why do "we" know when the first press performance is? In my experience that isn't something that is usually shared with cast members and sometimes stage management, but kept with the producers and house staff.
Your experience is certainly different from mine - everyone knows when the first press performance is on Broadway, it's never a secret (particularly when it's only a day away).

First press show is tomorrow, so it's not terribly hasty.
Doesn't that mean they reviewed something that wasn't the final product, making the review kind of meaningless?

I wouldn't be surprised to find that the opening gets pushed back. Way way back. Way way way back.
Or not. Who knows. But I can't imagine the show opening in the condition it was in last night.
"Doesn't that mean they reviewed something that wasn't the final product, making the review kind of meaningless?"
Maybe. But if you've seen the show this week (and maybe you have), you might not feel that it really matters. The writing is so flat, I can't conceive of any changes they could incorporate in a few days that would make it significantly different.
If they were not permitted to review the show at this point, maybe Lincoln Center could sue, but I can't imagine what they would hope to achieve by objecting...
According to Benanti, they're adding a "goodbye" song for Sherie.

This thread has become such a sh*t show, which is unfortunate because I REALLY am interested in this show and what changes are being made.
We were doing fine for a few days tracking the changes. But that worthless scum had to come and f*ck it up again.
Was it really necessary to post that picture that many times?
Yes. It was.

roscoe and newintown hate a new musical. Gee, this doesn't sound unfamiliar at all.

As much as I look forward to your intelligent, thoughtful and mature contributions. You've so succinctly expressed your thoughts on this show that I can hardly wait to hear your next comment.

I am hoping this post will bring us a fresh new page. Love to hear anything NEW about the show.

No? How about this one?

Maybe this one-let me help you out ghostlight :)
Someone on ATC asked about the order of the company bows and I was curious to see if anyone here knew what they were.
ETA: I thought that one might work, but I guess not.
I'm sorry if I messed up the current page.
But I would also love to know the order of the bows. I am assuming LuPone gets the second to last bow. Her role is certainly the largest after Sherie's.

I understand your frustration. But really, the only things trolls care about is being the center of attention. And the only solution to the problem is to deprive them of that attention by not addessing their posts.
True, this may not get rid of them, (and I don't think anything could get rid of this one), but at least they won't be given the attention they crave.
