has anyone else seen the new broadway.com? it's SO different. the layout is crazy, and the features (q&a, fresh face, first person etc.) are all gone. everything just seems lumped together. what do you guys think? love it or hate it?

All of those features (that we enjoy) are secondary to them. Their purpose is to sell their marked up tickets, and this new design makes that very clear.

Eeeewww! They just changed the layout like 6 months ago. I loved it!
Now it looks like a pile of after birth.

Posted: 7/24/09 at 11:08pmSome of the pages won't even open for me. Are they still working on it?

Posted: 7/24/09 at 11:30pmGod Broadway.com is changing layouts more than facebook now...and this layout is more confusing than that.

Posted: 7/24/09 at 11:32pmI thought it was more aesthetically pleasing but less user-friendly.

I STILL can't find the Ask a Star videos.
The only thing I like about broadway.com is the video features, and now they're all jumbled together and hard to access.

Awww...I'm going to miss the 'search by date' feature. I just realized it existed about 2 months ago and now I've lost it. Other than that, I bare use it.
Once again I agree with AdamGreer. It's all about selling thier overpriced tix.

Posted: 7/25/09 at 1:52amThey clearly changed the layout to market their horribly overpriced tickets.

Posted: 7/25/09 at 2:16amWell in the end, they're trying to appeal less to local new yorkers who wouldn't even consider buying an overpriced ticket from broadway.com, and more to tourists who know nothing about what a ticket to a broadway show costs.

Posted: 7/25/09 at 4:28amI didn't even realize it was broadway.com at first. I thought it was just a huge overlaying add. I don't like it.

What I hate is not being able to access their old videos now of old opening nights from years ago!
Broadway.com, go suck an egg.

Posted: 7/25/09 at 12:10pmI only like the HUGE pictures. Other than that, it is way too confusing
