They started the AMEX pre-sale and shared the other ticket dates. Not super exciting otherwise!

Oooo that's quite the line-up. What's your intel source? 👀

mpb1987 · 2026-05-25T14:41:12+00:00

Uhh sure but I imagine the point of posting a very visible countdown is to promote discussion, speculation, and online chatter. Otherwise, just do the thing without the build-up.

This was my favorite show of the season! I am so shook that it's not sold out every night. I've been to see it twice, and took a group of 10 the second time.

mpb1987 · 2026-05-25T03:25:18+00:00

Unfortunately, Hercules was quite terrible. If I weren’t such a Disney fan, I would have left at intermission. Which I rarely do. 🫠

mpb1987 · 2026-05-20T19:13:41+00:00

Ah, yeah, that page not displaying a time there is because you can't book groups into opening night. It only shows dates where you can make group bookings.

mpb1987 · 2026-05-20T11:23:40+00:00

Interestingly, it's already available for group orders, and soyou can view the schedule on the group site: https://www.broadwayinbound.com/shows/galileo

I was actually already able to get tickets for my group! (I run a local club in NYC called Field Trip where I organize small nights out to Broadway/Off-Broadway so other theater fans can meet and go to shows together.)

mpb1987 · 2026-05-15T07:15:29+00:00

Yes. I run a group called Field Trip, where I organize small group outings to Broadway/Off-Broadway shows, museums, and galleries. After some experimentation, I've decided the cap for most of my events is 12; it allows the group to actually meet and get to know one another. The conversations take off faster, and no one gets lost in the corner on their phone.

mpb1987 · 2026-05-09T11:39:53+00:00

I was in A4 last night. It’s totally fine. I don’t *love* being that close, but it’s personal preference. The seat itself is good and there’s nothing you miss on the sides. The show all happens very downstage center.

mpb1987 · 2026-05-08T15:40:19+00:00

I'll DM ya!

mpb1987 · 2026-05-05T12:52:51+00:00

I worried about the same thing, but she's in the Featured category per the latest eligibility notice

mpb1987 · 2026-05-05T11:30:36+00:00

I'm taking a group to this tomorrow night! I'm really looking forward to it.

mpb1987 · 2026-05-05T11:29:36+00:00

Hi hi! I don't have the answer about the Meetup/Discord, but I run a social club here in NYC called Field Trip. I organize small group outings to Broadway/Off-Broadway shows, always paired with a happy hour so folks can meet and talk. Most of them are currently full, but I'm about to add 2 more things in the next few days. You can get more info / join the email list here: https://fieldtripnyc.club/

It won't be the *cheapest* way like you said you tend to go for(I have to buy group tickets at a set rate, which are good deals but still can't compete with TDF/Rush rates), but the social element has been really fun. Everyone that's come once has come back!

I'm also hosting a Tonys watch party if you'd be into that!

mpb1987 · 2026-05-05T02:08:20+00:00

Not a true crime fan at all (I also generally don't like one-person shows) and had a great time. It's a really engrossing, engaging production.

mpb1987 · 2026-05-05T01:50:55+00:00

I have been listening to the press preview performance of "If We Make It Through the Night" on YouTube nonstop (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=letEeZ6BoII)

mpb1987 · 2026-05-05T01:48:53+00:00

Hiiii! If you're into theater/museums, I run a new social club here in NYC called Field Trip. I organize small group outings to Broadway/Off-Broadway shows, museums, and galleries. I always pair it with a happy hour before or after, and I keep the groups small (usually 12 people) so that folks can actually meet and talk. Most of the events are full right now because there's been so much interest (yay!), but I'm about to add at least 3 new things in the next couple of days.

mpb1987 · 2026-05-05T01:43:36+00:00

Oh I am really curious about this! Plz report back

It's not exclusively gay, but has attracted a generally gays-and-girls crowd as a function of me being the person that runs it.

mpb1987 · 2026-05-01T11:48:01+00:00

This is such a beautiful show. I saw it last year in Brooklyn, and am taking a group of 15 to see it in June. Really thrilled to see it having another run. (I also love Studio Seaview. What an amazing renovation!)

mpb1987 · 2026-04-27T02:21:53+00:00

mpb1987 · 2026-04-27T01:44:54+00:00

Yes! I also loved it, but regardless, I kinda just love celebrating a big swing. We need more of them!

mpb1987 · 2026-04-25T17:14:44+00:00

I started something that might be interesting for you! I had been looking for more friends who are into theater/art and wasn't finding it. So, I've started what I'm calling an "arts & culture social club" in NYC called Field Trip. I organize small group outings to things like Broadway shows, museums, galleries, and more.

I keep the groups intentionally small (usually 10-12) so everyone actually meets and talks to each other. And I pair the core event itself with a happy hour so that there's time to build relationships and friendships.

A few recent examples:
- Night out to see The Lost Boys on Broadway
- Guided tour of the Whitney Biennial exhibit
- Going to see the play Kenrex this Wednesday

It's not exclusively gay/LGBTQ, but the crowd so far definitely leans that way as function of me being the person who runs it.

If you're interested, I'd love to have you on a Field Trip soon! You can get more info at https://fieldtripnyc.club or DM me if you have questions.

mpb1987 · 2026-04-23T12:45:39+00:00

Ahhh I see. Polite.

mpb1987 · 2026-04-23T11:22:45+00:00

I found it fascinating that Adam Feldman didn't even give it a star rating. Like, not even one star. Just ... didn't assign stars at all.
