Does anyone know if there are updates or new codes for:

OH MARY

STEROPHONIC

ONCE UPON A MATTRESS

I thank you so much in advance for any help! Trying to buy tickets for mid August.

Have a great weekend!

That being said, Platt really did put on a beautiful show. It had a lot of heart, interaction with the audience and, of course, a lot of beautiful vocals too. He seems ver

I don’t think we are all seeing the same HK show. I’ve seen all the musicals this year, and I think HK is the best (although I do think Illinoise is very unique and revelatory, and would be very happy if it wins). 

I actually quite like the book. Most books try to cover too much superficially but this zooms in on the mother/daughter relationship in a heartwarming, believable way.

Living in Philadelphia, generally I prefer regional over touring. 

What I’ve come to realize is that some actors probably prefer to live outside of NYC. I’ve seen the same actors appearing across different regional theaters in Philly that could absolutely be on Broadway but choose to live here. The caliber of acting and overall production is really quite excellent.
