Indeed I did. Next time use proper names so nobody gets confused! Sorry."



You're expecting way too much from BWW posters...

Yeah, let that be my downfall.

I was going to let bygones be bygones since you did apologize, but since the two of you are still being snarky and somehow acting like this is my fault, I shall explain that I DID use proper names in that post. The ONLY proper names within that post were the Belasco and Come From Away, and I said nothing of DEH and the Music Box. Therefore, if you decided to treat the post as if it was talking about DEH despite no mention being made of it, that is YOUR idiocy in making a false assumption and not being able to read properly, and to then backtrack and try to act as if it was my fault in being unclear when my language was perfectly clear is simply evil.

But maybe I'm the one who's expecting way too much from the two of you by expecting you to not be stupid or evil...

I'm just happy the dates have not changed. This is my most anticipated show for the upcoming trip, and am seeing it on the evening of the 16th, only a couple days after Previews start. If they had pushed back the start date, I would have been really disappointed.



Tried calling Telecharge about my seat, but they don't know much information. So, guess I will wait for the e-mail.

The Music Box is a good theatre so that's good news.

However, I'm not amused by this Dear Evan Hansen drama. First, a while back I bought a ticket for a performance (Sunday evening, December 18th) that got cancelled. So I had to scramble and get tickets exchanged for Saturday the 17th. (I'm traveling in from out of town, thankfully I had a free slot left.)

And now they're changing theatres. Egads, so I'll be receiving an email about re-ordering again. And hopefully I'll get "comparable seats" because I liked the seats I chose.

I know, first world problem, but I hope there are no more changes.

They aren't asking you to re-order tickets, so can't see how any of this is a drama. They are if possible giving you the same seat in a different theatre.

I still haven't received any e-mail from Telecharge about the situation. Has anyone else?

Well, as I said, I don't live near NYC. I'm making a special trip (flying out) to see Evan Hansen and Natasha and Pierre... that weekend. I'm sure for people living near or in NYC that such a change isn't a big deal. My time in NYC is limited and I'm so yes, being told that a performance that I bought tickets for was cancelled (and for the show I really wanted to see) was a pain. If you were traveling somewhere special to see a show and you had received word the performance was cancelled, you would have just shrugged and said "oh well, that's live theatre?" The next time, because of my work schedule, I would have been able to make it back to NYC to see Dear Evan Hansen would have been May, and it might close by then. But luckily it worked out.

Receiving word that the show was changing theatres--yes, it caused my eyes to roll. I have been going to theatre for several decades and I have not encountered the two things happening with the same show. Throw in the weirdness with ordering tickets for Natasha and Pierre..., this theatre trip just feels a bit more bumpy than usual.

But I am relieved to hear that the seats I bought for DEH will be comparable, pretty much the same. At least it's still going to happen. Hopefully. : )

If it makes you feel any better, and to dispel any potential worry on this board, it will absolutely still be open in May. The producers have very deep pockets (more so than others) and their advance is significant. Enjoy your trip.

More so than Warner brothers?

Romain2 .... I agree with you completely. I had tickets for a different DEH Sunday night show that was cancelled and my schedule did not allow me to switch to a different date. I would feel the same way you do about the theater switch if I had gotten tickets for another date and now found out the seats may or may not be the ones I selected. And I still don't know if my original Great Comet purchase was ever refunded.

Thanks! That's good to know. Oh and I will enjoy my trip. I always enjoy my Broadway excursions. Have a good one.
