Edit - Meghann Fahey from White Lotus was also in the cast. She of course understudied Next to Normal.

I was there on Friday night. There were an inordinate amount of young women in attendance. Not too hard to figure out.

Near rave from Deadline (after the Harmony review). Reviews seem mixed to positive which is better than I expected.

I Need That Seating Advice
Nov 14
2023, 11:23:55 AM
I think that boxes are a cool way to see shows. It’s a different perspective. Also, for larger people, they’re not crammed into a seat designed for people from the 1900s. I sat in the box for ‘The Price’ and almost felt I was on stage with Danny Devito. Was thinking of doing it again.

The first act of this was the best thing I saw this weekend. Sondheim, goofiness, a first-rate cast. Yes please. Okay the second act. Not the worst I’ve seen. Most musicals lose steam after intermission. And the lack of songs is a problem.
I think this is the only show I’d see again (Danny, Here Lies Love are the others).
Micaela Diamond USA is a star. Please find a show for her.

Sad that this and Sleep Mo More are both closing. These shows don’t appeal to tourists and there is too much star power and Disney to compete with. I can’t believe how many people’s first Broadway show is BOM.

I’ve been a fan of Aubrey Plaza ever since seeing her in “Safety not Guaranteed” about a decade ago. I haven’t seen any of her later films. I’ve mainly kept up with her through guest appearances on YouTube. The early one’s are gold. The later one’s ones seem more of a schtickt. I was shocked to find out she is 39 and married. Damn Covid made us all jump in time. Don’t get me wrong she is gorgeous and sti

The doors open at 10 AM. If he did 10-noon that would be cutting it close. Oaks is in the western burbs. MM is usually in Cherry Hill which would be doable. They probably didn’t realize it moved.

Snagged a $229 center Dress Circle seat Saturday. Good luck finding one now.
Have to say I concur with the reviews. I hated the Fiasco version. One of the worst things I’ve seen. This production is miraculous.

Icke's THE DOCTOR Starring Juliet Stevenson at the Park Avenue Armory

Rush tickets ($38) are ridiculously easy to get. No excuse not to see this. Thought the second act was a bit contrived but it’s always hard to stick the landing. Juliet is astonishing and incredibly fit for her age.

WldKingdomHM said: "So how long is Laurie on stage for ?"
She’s in and out. Even when she’s on stage, she’s not necessarily a focus of the action. It’s an ensemble piece. I’d say Tatiana is the female lead. Even Sophia has a smaller role than expected.
Colby Kipness stood out as “Squirrel”. She outcreeps SAC which is quite an accomplishment.

Oscar Isaac and Rachel Brosnahan in THE SIGN IN SIDNEY BRUSTEIN’S WINDOW at BAM

This is must see theater. Lorraine Hansberry turns her withering eye on the white bourgeoisie and eviscerates it. Yes it’s long and tickets are scarce and expensive but see it for your own good. Oscar Isaac may go overboard here and there. Rachel Brosnahan doesn’t really seem to be acting but seems to be playing herself (a struggling actress who has difficulty getting work). Curiously none of the actors got entrance applause. Miriam Silverman go

Hamlet @ BAM (Thomas Ostermeier)

2022, 08:49:50 PM
I didn’t know you were allowed to have this much fun at Hamlet. The people next to me were discussing parallels between this and The Lion King. My comparison might be Beetlejuice with a touch of The Damned - or maybe Rocky Horror. If you sit front orchestra there is a chance of audience participation.
They cut the gravedigger scene probably due to the layout of the set as well as brevity. Also it’s a very small cast with lots of do

I don’t think so. There might be standby. There’s a few balcony seats available at $44.

They tend to be short runs. This will probably be a month give or take. I think that was the case with Cyrano. I wouldn’t sleep on it. The show I just saw at BAM was 4 performances.

I agree. I think the show is pretty well “fixed”. Maybe they could add a nude scene ala Hair.
Expectations are the key here. I went in not expecting much and was entertained. The 2 leads here give star making performances. Solea has some tough competition from Julia Cassandra as Estrella. C

I got a rush ticket for Hamlet for $30. The seat was perfect- dead center of the orchestra row M. Since you are on Today Tix try the rush.
