Woman In Black US tour

Saw this in Chicago on Friday and just wanted to mention that I had a great time! I’m curious if the Royal George only sold the first half of the theatre to keep it intimate or if its just not selling well. Oh well, it was my first time seeing it and I thought the actors and production were great! Has anyone else seen it or will see it?
Also it’s interesting that this is the first time this production has made it to the US and the show has never played broadway. I’m curious why that is.

Jorge, I believe they didn't sell the other half because the view may have taken away some of the magic of the staging. 

 

But the Royal George production is great. I recommend it.

Get an aisle seat if you can."

There are almost always school groups, because the book is "required reading" at many schools in the UK.  The first time I saw the show, the audience in the stalls was probably 75% school groups and they were primed for the show, shrieking even before it began.  

I definitely plan on seeing this in Chicago!

That said.... it’s a great play. Does this “tour” have dates beyond Chicago?"

I know it’s not the first time show has been performed in the US. That’s why I specified that this production that has been playing on the west end for over 25 years has been in the US.

I believe they head to Seattle next.
