By my calculations the estate only has 9 years left before the copyright expires and thus enters the public domain. Having a recent Broadway production might inspire more regional theaters to mount productions in the coming years, and get the family some more income before time runs out.

I love Jim Parsons, but with Richard Thomas in the cast... I think I'd rather see Richard Thomas as the Stage Manager.

1000%, and I feel like Parsons and Holmes would be a much better match as the Webb's too. Odd choices there.

Definitely agree - would love to see Richard Thomas as the Stage Manager

Yes, my thought, too! Thomas seems to old for Webb, at nearly 73, he seems far better suited for the SM.
I truly adored Cromer's version (however many years ago now) and have my doubts that this can live up to my my very visceral experience with that.....but I'll let them try!
Oh, I didn't realize Mother Play was a limited run!
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

To this day, seeing Cromer’s “Our Town” at The Hypocrits in Chicago is one of my favorite experiences inside a theatre I’ve ever had. And every so often the smell of Bacon brings me back to that very specific moment in time and in my life. I was actually in rehearsals for a Cromer directed WSS as a Jett when it was annnounced it would be transferring to NY. Crazy to think what has become of his career since then. Not at all unexpected from us who “knew him when” but glad the rest of the world got to witness his Genius.

When you're a Jet, you're a Jet from your first strip of bacon, to you're last dying day?

That "artwork" is pretty darn awful. Also, is Katie Holmes not a draw anymore? Where is her name?

Jim Parsons is prominently featured, but he still isn't above the title. If I was seeing this for any particular actor I'd maybe wait until closer to a performance date to buy tickets since there's no guarantee no one gets the flu etc through the Autumn.

It’s the “for our time” part that’s nauseating. Reminds me of the “Their time, Our time, Ragtime” revival artwork.

No, Katie is not a draw. Also I would imagine that if they bill her, it would trigger the need to bill some of the other actors, as well.

A newfound appreciation of the beauty of the mundane details of life?

Don't care for any gift, no matter how "exclusive". Should've been a long overdue discount code or a box office opening in person sale, similar to what Gatsby did with their $50 promo tickets. Helped to build a very positive WOM.

And whatever the gift is, in keeping with the show, it's entirely pantomimed.

Onstage seating is usually partial view, so I’m not sure what’s going to be different to justify this price tag

I'm sympathetic with this view, but I have mixed feelings about it. Most shows lose money for their investors. In particular, a lot of the shows that I love lose every penny the investors put up. 
Considering Broadway investors as a group (and I know that's an oversimplification), it's really hard to characterize them as greedy. I imagine there are, on average, much more profitable ways for multi-millionaires to use their money. And maybe some of these investors have to make a ton of money on star-driven plays so that they can afford to lose their shirts on Days of Wine and Roses or American Psycho.

They'll be some light interaction with the cast. So, if people want Jim, Katie, Zoey, etc to look at them or people want to see them really up close, these are the seats for you.
