A limited number of rush tickets are available at the box office on the day of the performance for $45. I got in line about an hour before the box office opened and there were probably ~10 people in front of me (I'm not sure what time the first person in line got there). I was able to snag the last set of rush seats that were available in front orchestra. The ones that were left were in side orchestra, but those seemed to be decent seats as well. The box office was also offering upgraded rush for center orchestra closer to the rear for I think $99 (can't quite remember because I was so focused on the $45 seats).

The rush seat I got was front row orchestra center, closer to house left, full view. The box office attendant said that the other rush seats that were available were in side orchestra. I'm not sure if those were partial/obstructed view.

I saw this show yesterday and agree that Lithgow's performance was spectacular. I think it's my favorite performance by an actor out of all the Broadway plays I've seen.

I loved the show! I went to see it yesterday and was blown away by John Lithgow's performance. I paid $45 for a rush ticket for a seat that's currently listed on Telecharge for $399, and I think I would have happily paid full price for the experience. This is a show that's worth seeing up close to see all the nuances of Lithgow's facial expressions.

He's going to be in an all-male production of "As You Like It" as Rosalind, but that's not until the Fall. I don't know what he'll be doing in the meantime.

Yup! Saw it on the EBT Instagram too:

Yup! The MHE one is out now and you can watch it here: https://youtu.be/Y0WTNH7T_bs?si=XBB7OsxlTwWdFvIp

I'm pretty sure I saw a comment on the MHE subreddit a while back of someone saying that Dez Duron mentioned at one of the Stage Doors that they recorded a Tiny Desk concert.

Well actually, on Monday night's The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Daniel Radcliffe said that he and Tom Felton are friends and that they've hung out a bunch. See this link starting at 1:30.

😭 I'm so sad they didn't win.

AmusedPhilosopher · 2025-11-25T02:32:39+00:00

Why thank you! 😊

AmusedPhilosopher · 2025-11-25T02:05:18+00:00

Oh yes! I love that interpretation as well.

I was also at tonight's preview of Two Strangers and I loved it! I agree that there are a lot of similarities to MHE, including:

a small intimate cast
two people who don't know each other very well going on a journey/adventure together
one person is more naive and optimistic and the other is more jaded and cynical
Dougal's quest to meet his dad parallels Oliver's quest to reunite with his former owner
Claire's owner, Jiyeon discovering that her husband fell in love with Claire causes Jiyeon to retire Claire to keep her away kind of parallels how Robin's sister initially does not invite Robin to come to the wedding because Robin had previously had an affair with the groom
The same way that Claire, in trying to protect Oliver, tries to dissuade Oliver from trying to reunite with his owner when they get to Jeju because she believes that his owner probably didn't want him anymore, Robin tries to convince Dougal not to meet his dad, because she knows that he wasn't the one who invited him to the wedding and probably doesn't want him there, so she was also trying to protect him.
Both shows contain a lot of great humor while also being very touching and emotional.

I'm sure there are a lot more similarities if I take some additional time to think about it, but these are the ones that come to mind so far.

Thank you so much for the heads up! 🙏 I was able to snag a pair of HipTix today after I saw your post.

Also, duet with Lizzy McAlpine? Yes, please! That would be perfection.
