We sat Row L far right on Saturday and it was not bad at all. I noted no obstructions in the Orchestra (there's a pole at the end of row F I think) and we really didn't miss anything.

I am surprised at seeing Syracuse on several lists for theater. When I attended there (many moons ago) it was NOT known as a good program. When did it acquire this reputation?

Dracula hadn't opened Friday when I was there, but we saw Mama Mia, Caroline or Change, I am My Own Wife, and we bought Frogs.

Gee, a fair number, now that I think about it. The ones that come to mind:
Dance of the Vampires- Really liked it. Pretty funny.
Seussical- OK. A good show to take kids.
Amour- BOOOOORING! My daughter loved it, and my husband wanted to leave at intermission.
Teddy and Alice; The worst EVER! Only courtesy kept us until intermission.

The Producers--- with the original cast.
The funniest thing I ever saw on a stage.

The American Express site is showing seats well into August! Hooray!
I may take my chances and book those dates. If they close, We'll see something else.

Harvey was AWESOME in Hairspray! He deserved the Tony!
For BAD BAD BAD, I nominate the entire cast of "Teddy and Alice" (1987). The only show I ever left at intermission.

I had little luck using a vocal ripper on either Wicked, or some of Avenue Q. The lower vocals came out easily, but the higher voices were problematic.
I will get the karaoke, already done.

Count me as an old crow. I liked the show very much. Donna Murphy was fabulous, and the show was good, for what it is... a classic. If you want modern, see Avenue Q or Wicked.
We saw Anything Goes in London a few months ago. Another good classic show.

Cast is worse than bad... WAY worse than bad... If I didn't have a mesmerized 1st grader in tow, I never would have seen the curtain call.

Amazon still shows it as due in June, and available for pre-order, but the Wicked sheet music (not due until July now) is shown the same way.l

I walked out of "Teddy and Alice" and would have left "Starlight Express"(tour)and "Les Mis" (tour) if I wasn't with my kid.

You can't go wrong with either, but LSOH is just LSOH while Avenue Q is fresh, different, and the funniest thing I've seen since "The Producers".

Aren't there any OLD people here?
The first Broadway show I saw was Grease (original production). I loved it, and have loved Broadway, and been hooked on live theater ever since.
Since I regret not seeing MORE theater when I was younger, I regularly take my daughter to NY to see shows, and have since she was 3. We also see Broadway touring companies in our area, and some regional and local productions.
