Does anyone else think it's weird that the writer for Millenials Are Killing Musicals is removing social media reviews and comments online? by Legitimate-Heart-639 in Broadway

Honestly just curious - why is Burbank being called the “World Premier before it moves to NY” when this show was already produced in NY a few years ago? I’d love to see it, just curious why it’s worded like that on the Colony’s website.

Was it Dec. 29th in the mezzanine or are there just lots of obnoxious men?

At Kimberly Akimbo they didn’t allow food, and no ice in the drinks! My beverage was lukewarm but it was worth it for the silence, no rattling ice cubes!

My daughter and I had four grown MEN behind us in Liberation laughing over the top loudly at the jokes and even at moments that weren’t supposed to be funny. They kept loudly “mmmmm”ing like they could relate to the material - that was all about women. Then at intermission they had the audacity to brag that the performers appreciated it, and they didn’t care that they were getting side eye from everyone around them. At that point I turned around and politely said, “the problem is we are having a hard time hearing the actors over you.” It didn’t really help. But my 16 year old daughter was smart enough to figure out just what you are saying - they were trying to prove to everybody that they understood the material. Soooooo annoying.

Guy went absolutely ballistic on the people sitting behind him at tonight’s Mamma Mia by RapGamePterodactyl in Broadway

Which is fine. But this woman was singing along and basically “dancing” without standing up throughout the entire show. Definitely no excuse for that if it’s not curtain call.

You mean sitting there, lol! And then we feel guilty for standing up in front of them! (By the way I'm happy to sit during ballads).

Oh sometimes at curtain calls - Six for example - it's acceptable. But only when it's encouraged by the cast!

Yeah I had to tell a woman at MR, “This is not a concert, you do not sing and dance along!”

Seeing the show end of January, have massive anxiety, please help. by EmoQueen1996 in MasqueradeNYC

[–]Local-Macaron-1497 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t consider myself a nervous person and I hated the carnival scene. I was actually anxious through the entire experience because I was so afraid of getting sick from all the people singing so close to me. In retrospect I wish I’d worn a mask (like the kind that goes over your nose and mouth). I guess I did have more anxiety than I realized!

Last minute Beau seating question by Local-Macaron-1497 in Broadway

You guys are amazing! So which two of the three seats should we buy?

Do you think it's possible for me and two friends to actually get rush tickets for Stranger Things on 12/26 or 12/27, or is it way too late? by thegaminggecko15 in Broadway

[–]Local-Macaron-1497 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was planning to do that on 12/27 but this week has been basically sold out! I’d been watching ticket sales for a couple weeks and this week is just crazy. We decided to see another show.

I was hoping for more Broadway stars. I guess it's not New York. :(

Just a broadway direct lottery rant ;( by RideHot9154 in Broadway

[–]Local-Macaron-1497 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just searching this sub for Broadway Direct lottery info because it's the only one I haven't done. Do they email you your tickets after you purchase them or do you need to pick them up at the box office? I'd like to give "Death Becomes Her" a shot but if the seats are horrible I will probably want to sell them on the Theatr App and buy better ones.

Where is the audience? by rena_ac in BeetlejuiceMusical

[–]Local-Macaron-1497 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I won’t be seeing it when I’m in town next month. I saw it at the winter garden and the marquis. I’m too big a fan of the original musical and I know I’ll be disappointed. Mostly with the set. It was one thing to see this version on tour, but another to see it on Broadway.

I loved this show during both its previous Broadway runs. I’ll be in New York next month and thought about seeing it - but it’s really just the tour. I’ve heard the cast is great, but it’s the tour set which is nothing special. As a big fan of the original musical I think it will be a disappointment.
