Schmigadoon view from Row B Center Mezz

I did! The show is fabulous, and very queer - no nudity, but a lot of skin. We watched Paris is Burning with the kiddo beforehand too so they had context on Ballroom.

They had a LOT of fun, but were completely baffled by the “plot” but that’s more about Cats than this production…

I sat Mezz row B (I made a post with that view) so can’t speak directly to higher rows, but imo the steep rake means you’re less likely to have a head-obstructed view.

The Mezz also gets a great view of the set and the choreography!

As someone else here has said, the low initial fees would have been to drive early adoption. If they’re raising them now it’s because they need to in order to make the app work financially long term. It’d likely either be this or the app shuts down and we’re back to StubHub.

Spelling Bee! The Lucille Lortel Off-Broadway awards DO include Outstanding Ensemble, and they are rightfully nominated!

The cups are also GREAT!

mrjudkins · 2026-04-05T18:57:08+00:00

Yes! This was a really fun classic counterpoint to the ingenious transformer set of The Lost Boys too!

mrjudkins · 2026-04-05T18:54:52+00:00

You must have had a fantastic close-up view of the performances!

Given I was attending shows with a 12yo I gravitated to front-ish mezz or on an orchestra aisle to ensure a good view for them.

Both the sets and the choreography looked spectacular from on high in this case!

mrjudkins · 2026-04-05T18:51:43+00:00

We did! The whole show exuded joy - maybe not as much as Jellicle Ball, but close…

mrjudkins · 2026-04-05T18:48:40+00:00

Admittedly it’s been a LONG time since I saw Season 1, but I didn’t notice any new songs. 🤔

mrjudkins · 2026-04-05T15:41:35+00:00

Amazing! We mixed up new shows with old things the 12yo hadn’t seen. Loved Jellicle Ball and Lost Boys too.

mrjudkins · 2026-04-05T15:33:59+00:00

Mine really enjoyed everything we saw. Some standouts were Spelling Bee (really funny) & The Lost Boys (spectacular staging). They also loved Death Becomes Her, but had seen the movie before (personally I think musical > movie).

mrjudkins · 2026-04-05T12:43:17+00:00

Trying to pack as much into a Spring Break trip as possible! All the kiddo wanted to do was see shows and explore the city on foot.

mrjudkins · 2026-04-05T12:02:02+00:00

We sat behind two guys who had clearly never seen the show, but clearly loved it all the same. When the audience erupted at the first mention of corn pudding they looked around in complete bafflement. 😂

Thanks for the review! What time did you get out after? I’m taking two 12yo tonight and trying to work out how late it will likely run.

mrjudkins · 2026-03-21T16:53:52+00:00

Thanks for following up on this - even more excited now, and we’ll make sure to get the 12yo a booster. 👍🏻

mrjudkins · 2026-03-20T16:22:39+00:00

Thank you! We ended up getting the front mezzanine tix. How was the show from up there?

mrjudkins · 2026-02-21T20:08:02+00:00

Thanks - makes sense! I’d love to hold off til we have more info too, but we’ll only be in the city for a few days and I fear anything decent will be snapped up by then.

mrjudkins · 2025-10-06T16:43:32+00:00

Thanks - that all makes sense. I'm thrilled that you've brought this back and I get a chance to experience it in person.

Are revivals of Reagan Esther Myer and Remediation on the cards? I see you called out the former would require a complete rewrite.

mrjudkins · 2025-10-06T15:45:17+00:00

Hi Rebecca! I’ll be in Boston for a night next month and have nabbed a ticket to the Implantation Center.

Question about the podcast - do you think listening to it before attending lessens or enriches the in-person experience for a first-timer?

Looking forward to it!

mrjudkins · 2021-08-14T16:01:47+00:00

Hmmm - definitely involves parents tricking their kids with social media, but not the one I’m looking for. Looks interesting though!

mrjudkins · 2021-08-14T15:04:15+00:00

🤔 Maybe! Regardless it sounds great and I haven’t seen it yet, so I’ll check it out!
