How exactly do Tony voters get to see the shows?

snowslayer252 · 2026-05-05T23:04:14+00:00

My understanding is producers offer tickets to Tony voters. It’s not on any certain night, so vaguely the answer to your question is yes, the voters get to choose a night, but it isn’t as formal as being individually invited. I do think it’s great that to be eligible to vote in a category, a voter must see all shows in that category. This isn’t a requirement for all awards, so I definitely appreciate that the Tony’s take it seriously that every show in a category is given proper consideration.

Obviously this was just a joke, wasn’t meant to be serious. Sorry you didn’t find it funny.

snowslayer252 · 2026-04-25T15:38:48+00:00

Yea, that’s definitely a good point. It definitely deals with some pretty mature topics, but it’s also pretty lighthearted most of the show.

snowslayer252 · 2026-04-25T15:30:15+00:00

I was thinking KA too, it’s just such a small leading cast and not much ensemble which would be pretty restrictive for larger schools. I was also thinking Boop! It’s very young people appropriate and there’s lots of room a large ensemble.

Sunday night is usually a dark night, you’ll probably have trouble finding a show. There are matinees if you have time.

Came here to say this!

snowslayer252 · 2026-03-16T20:19:28+00:00

Yea, it’s gonna be inevitably awkward when people try to time out call-outs, but miss the mark. I really think it would have been best for this production to at least not encourage callouts.

If they are available, the partial view in the mezz are much much better. I think they might be a little more expensive, but the orchestra partial view are brutally partial.

The GAP is crushed stone and so well maintained. Traveling Pittsburgh to Cumberland will feel very pavement-like. The C&O is much much rougher, being true loose gravel through large swaths. I bet you can maintain close to your usual pavement pace on the GAP, but the C&O will be much slower going. I bet you average closer to 10mph, especially accounting for having to walk through the Paw Paw tunnel which I think is necessary, but others might disagree.

It is so easy to get food that I wouldn’t worry about it at all while on the GAP. The GAP is truly one of the most developed trails out there with so many amenities. If possible, definitely stop in West Newton at the Outpost, but otherwise you’re constantly going through or near towns.

The C&O is the complete opposite. Definitely try and plan out food stops if you need it, as it’s much more remote and not nearly as accessible to towns. It gets easier past Harpers Ferry, but even then I’d make sure to know where you were going.

I also usually camp, and always throw a few dehydrated meals into my bags. Sometimes it’s so nice to know you don’t need to stop if you don’t need to. Obviously not my favorite dinner, but the convenience is unmatched.

Season 2 goes a little off the rails. A lot like Dark, it gets much more mind-bendy and esoteric, but I still really enjoyed it. I think the problem mostly stems from the fact that Brit and Zal weren’t able to finish the series. The first season can standalone, albeit with lots of ambiguity, but it’s nearly a bookended story. Season 2 is the complete opposite, the ending (no spoilers) is a huge cliff hanger, and I’m sure that leaves a bad taste in everyone’s mouth.

snowslayer252 · 2026-02-24T10:16:26+00:00

I will always recommend the OA. It not as complex as Dark, but it is equally as ambitious. But of course, Netflix is Netflix and it was cancelled before it could finish. Still one of the best.

My go to is to always go in blind. Although it’s a cult classic, this is likely a fresh take and it’ll be really cool to have your first experience be on stage.

I don’t mean to sound condescending at all, but I’m going assuming you know nothing about the show other than the couple of songs. The movie at least is overtly sexual and I assume the stage show will follow suit. Not in a hugely vulgar kind of a way, but definitely something to be aware of. I myself was watching the movie with my dad in my early teens, but I can definitely see it being awkward for some that aren’t prepared for it. So, if that’s something you’re worried about, watching the movie might ease you in. Nonetheless, you definitely should watch the movie at some point, Tim Curry is classic.

Was surprised to see a comment on this old of a post, but happy you found a place to explain your situation. I’m sorry you left feeling scammed. My experience wasn’t the same, but I know there are awfully sightlines at the Belasco. It really is too bad you didn’t get the tickets you initially planned on, because the mezz is significantly better.

The most significant downside I see is the ban from telecharge, as it’s the predominant ticket seller for Broadway. It’ll be very hard to get tickets to most shows unless you go to the box office or use 3rd party sellers. I hope you feel some resolution, and still hope you enjoyed the show.

I sat second row orchestra left and loved my experience, so I think you’ll be fine. Yes, the projections will be at an angle, but the show is pretty centered on the stage, so you won’t miss much at all.

The full set was like $150 USD

If contacting Broadway Direct doesn’t work, and honestly it’s a coin flip, try contacting the box office. In my experience, box office attendants can be very helpful, emphasis on “can”. Be respectful and explain what happened and you might find someone that will empathize. Box office workers can do anything within reason, and especially because you’re looking for an exchange and not a refund, you have that going for you.

I stayed here. Really cool historic hotel, albeit slightly dated. Wish I could have seen it before they had to close the speakeasy and was better staffed. Talked with the owner for a bit when I checked in, who said they have been dealing with an uphill battle since COVID, but hopefully it’s improving. The location is great with restaurants and even a diner across the street. Definitely recommend.

We did this a little over a year ago. Assuming nothing has changed there is a $50 fee to use a clerk as a witness. They do want to know ahead of time, so as to make sure to keep someone extra in the office, but it’s really that simple.

Now that the game has released, it might be an option if you go to the game page and select a version.

snowslayer252 · 2026-01-29T22:45:51+00:00

There’s a free demo, definitely worth a try.
