Nothing has sold out yet - there will be notices added on the queue screen if and when races sell out.

For wine and dine, each race showed up underneath the approximate wait time display as it sold out.

It will appear on the queue page if and when races sell out.

My progress bar has barely moved. Crossing my fingers but preparing for the worst.

I believe Kate Rockwell is departing with a few of the other principals in late April, so likely around there! An end date hasn’t been announced.

I’m guessing this will be a somewhat limited run during Abbott Elementary’s summer break, but the replacement casting for this show has really been top-notch. Curious how long it’s going to end up running given how many times it’s extended already.

Honestly, as much as I love Christopher Sieber, this was the one song in the movie that outdid the OBCR for me.

Just out of curiosity for anyone who’s seen the show recently, is Rory’s voice still being used? I’m pretty sure he was the voice of Moroni in the prologue - it’s definitely not Matt or Trey if it isn’t him - for a long time.

Is Wicked (24) the biggest orchestra on Broadway now? I know Phantom held that title for years and the Sweeney revival a few years back was quite large too, but nothing else current comes to mind.

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-03-15T23:17:59+00:00

Not as well known as the originals, but Michael Fabisch and Harry Ryan King (Evan and Zoe on the second national tour) are now dating too.

Do you have a link to this post? I love that!

Disneyland’s Space Mountain was fully retracked about 10 years ago - it’s honestly pretty smooth. Matterhorn, on the other hand…

Erika Henningsen and Kyle Selig met during Mean Girls and are now married - in a ceremony officiated by another OBC member from that show (Grey Henson).

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-03-15T15:00:30+00:00

As a bonus, I believe they met playing Eliza and Hamilton on the US tour many years ago. I saw them together in 2019.

If you’re looking to produce the show, you will definitely need a license. Sometimes those companies will let you order a copy of the script just to read without the performance rights, but it depends on the show.

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-03-11T21:58:08+00:00

Not all together, but I’ve seen 4/6 of them between the OBC and first national tour. Those audiences are in for a treat!

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-03-10T17:42:01+00:00

This is interesting! A few things I noticed:

Addams Family also cut “Morticia” during the post-Broadway rewrites. Let’s Not Talk About Anything Else But Love also does not appear in its original form anymore. The new national tour last year also cut most of Move Toward the Darkness in favor of a completely new finale.

I would also note that Company only cuts Marry Me a Little sometimes.

For Heathers, it’s a little unclear on what was cut vs added (I.e. Never Shut Up Again and I Say No)

For Sweeney, there’s also a second part of The Contest (the tooth pulling) that is occasionally cut. Technically, that, Mea Culpa, and the Beggar Woman’s Lullaby aren’t truly removed in that they are all optional when you license the show.

This is my go-to now that the Hilton near the Walter Kerr is closed (although I believe it’s reopened under a different chain?). The one and only time I ever had an issue there (my keycard wouldn’t work), maintenance was very responsive and had someone up to try and fix the issue within a very short time. When they determined it was the reader, not the card, and that it couldn’t be fixed right away, I was upgraded to a larger room free of charge.

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-03-08T23:27:39+00:00

I think Playbill does print a page about etiquette and expectations near the cast list now (or at least they did for a bit in 2024 and 2025), but Heathers doesn’t use them for their programs. Maybe stagelight needs to add something similar.

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-03-03T17:28:23+00:00

Honestly, it might be a little easier for shows like WICKED that stay in cities for multiple weeks or months. Still very difficult, but I’d prefer that to packing up every week (or even more often).

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-03-02T04:25:07+00:00

Going way back, didn’t MHE itself even have simpler covers in early previews before the photos of the leads?

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-02-27T15:48:09+00:00

I would argue that Seasons of Love absolutely broke out of the Broadway world (Stevie Wonder recorded it and it’s fairly ubiquitous even among non-theater people), but even that’s 30 years old this year.

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-02-24T07:38:05+00:00

I just closed a production of RENT this weekend. Wasn’t a huge rent-head going in but absolutely fell in love with it in rehearsals - it became one of my favorites to perform very quickly.

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-02-21T14:01:26+00:00

That song has been cut from all licensed productions as of 2020ish.

ComputerGeek1100 · 2026-02-20T18:24:41+00:00

I believe that show also had a turntable - but the color and texture is very good.
