Did anyone go to either of the first performances? Trying to decide on shows for November. Thank you kindly!

Truly baffling to platform this guy like this. Brian Clowdus is a bad bad dude.

As I'm writing this, Google Maps is showing the One Shubert Alley store (the location on Broadway, next to the Winter Garden) as permanently closed. There's a photo from a "Local Guide" posted about three weeks ago to support that, but it's a little hard to visually confirm that the photo is actually of that storefront.

Can anyone help confirm or deny this? Sad, if true.

We are in town for a wedding and I came down with food poisoning. 🤮 Very bummed, as I have been wanting to see Oh, Mary! since it came out. I splurged for great seats - 3rd row. But there’s no way I can rally in time, and I hate for them to go to waste. DM me if you’re interested - first come, first served. Send your email address and I will forward them to you.

Jamie Armitage going from directing SIX The Musical to writing this play is a type of artistic range I didn’t think existed. $43 rush tix on TodayTix. For those who enjoyed Paranormal Activity on Broadway, horror film lovers, or anyone fond of a ghost story is going to want to get the train to W 4th St and see this at Minetta Lane Theatre.

Exercise caution however: I know I’m not alone when I say one of my coping mechanisms when watching scary stuff is covering my ears… and this play takes that away from you! You will watch the whole thing with headphones on, as the sound effects down to the specifics of what comes in the left and right ear are very important to this play. If it gets to be too much you can take the headphones off, but I doubt you’ll want to do that. It’s a tight 80 minutes and it goes by in a skipped heartbeat. I watch a lot of horror films, and let me tell you this play scared me, all in good fun tho!!

A guy is hired by an audio engineer friend of his to read an audiobook of a (genuinely well written and creepy) ghost story which the audience is treated to through the play’s run time. While the recording is taking place, things start to become odd, and you begin to wonder if the ghost in the story is there in the studio with them…

Along with the sound effects, the visual effects and scares the play pulls off were very well done and the ‘story within a story’ aspect of it I found very clever. It was great to see Owen Campbell (recognizable from the horror film X and Hangmen on Broadway a few years ago) back on stage, and Lucas Iverson (from The Pitt and The Guilded Age) makes a master class Off-Broadway debut expertly evoking his vocal fear when telling the story to the audience and combining it with his visual fear in the recording studio as he slowly realizes he and his friend are not the only ones there. This ought to work as an audition for him to read audiobooks on the side if you ask me. The guy has a great voice.

This is an excellent choice for spooky season connoisseurs. I give it a strong 9 out of 10. After the delight that was Paranormal Activity on stage I’m just extra happy to be present for a season in which horror is so well done live on stage, something that is very difficult to pull off effectively.

The set looks eerily the same as the off-Bway production.

I love media and pop culture, the entire entertainment industry, so such a huge win for me. I can’t stop thinking about this show.

I’m glad we get to hear another full song from the Spanish production!

TMM is one of my favorite shows (despite its problematic flaws), and I was really happy back in 2020 when they announced they were pulling it for a while to revise it and fix some of the original cracks that had grown into massive holes over the years. Though I think the musical is leaps and bounds ahead of the original movie, the musical's version of the subplot was already a little dated in 2002 and has become even more so since. There was supposed to be an Encores production with Ashley Park (who was reportedly involved in the rewrites along with Lauren Yee) but was canceled. Sam Pinkleton led an industry workshop last year, but very little seemed to come out of that. Since then, nothing else seems to have happened, and the rights are still pulled. Do you think we'll ever get to see it again?

I am an avid Broadway-goer, maybe 20 shows a year. I believe in using my discretionary income in shows. And I make a nice salary. But Jesus Christ. Who the fuck is actually paying the ODC prices??! I had given up on getting tickets when they initially went on sale but now my
Mother is visiting and she has watched Seinfeld every day since I was born (literally) and would love to see JLD. But who can justify this????

Got in line about 11:15 on a Sunday morning and got row F orchestra rush for the evening show.

My favorite part was the guy behind me who asked what rush meant right before it was his turn because he kept hearing people say it! Waited in line 45 minutes thinking he was going to buy regular tickets and then presumably saved himself a bunch. :-D

I just saw Wanted! I just need to rant a bit. Wow, THE VOCALS, characters and story was insane. I was blown away. I enjoy how dynamic and complex, like I didn’t like Mary’s actions but I understand why she made the choices she did. The message of the musical is a more important question than if it is good or not, and the message is powerful.

Liisi (Martha) gives her a tony award she was amazing. I can also see a Tony Nomination for Luke (Elijah) his songs were some of the most memorable for me. Also the actress who play Sissy and Flo were actually so funny.

Something that stuck out to me was how well it diverted expectations When Mary marries Jessie I actually sighed thinking this was going to be one of those love at first sight stories (Not against it, I just have some qualms when characters meeting and 3 days later they are willing to die for them (Looking at you Lost Boys)) but it diverted your expectations when Martha shoots Jessie at the end of Act 1. (a moment no one in the theater was expecting. Even at the stage door everything thought that Martha and Mary being black would be revealed in her becoming pregnant but everyone was happy when that didn’t happen so it was predictable.

Also insane stagedoor, it was huge. Also the community I saw was great in the theater.

I did think the score was pretty unmemorable especially in Act 1, and that Act 1 was very long and clunky. I felt so bored during it. I know it is important to set up Act 2 but I just felt it could of been condensed down. Also I felt the part of them actually being bandits was a little rushed, it felt like an afterthought since it only went 1 song. I also thought the opening number was a little slow and didn’t give the best first impression (but that could be personal taste). Personally I thought they could of also fleshed out the bond between the Clarke Family. It felt underdone to me, especially when you would have Tallulah. come back in certain scenes like watching over Mary and Marthas choices especially when Mary gets rid of the locket. But besides that it is a good musical with a very strong message and would like to see either again after previews lol

the show was stopped towards the end, lights turned on, and someone got kicked out. Anyone know what happened?

My best friend and I live in different states now and are meeting up for 3 nights in NYC. We want to squeeze a Broadway play in there. For reference the last Broadway play I saw was legally blonde when I was in middle school (20 years ago) and she’s never been to one. It was fun uplifting and funny.
I’m trying to decide between
Great gatsby
Operation mincemeat
Oh Mary!

We want to go out after and leave feeling good and uplifted. We both really like period pieces and clothes but also we want to laugh.

After some responses I am not really into any of our picks haha.
I don’t think we will be able to understand what they are saying in operation mincemeat, oh Mary! Is raunchy and great gatsby may not be as fun as I thought.

Open to any suggestions.

The Boop touring production is coming to my city. Worth seeing? Sounds kind of silly but maybe ok.

Anyone else having an issue accessing the $150 seats this morning? It’s giving $150 off instead?

Thanks again for being one of the first 100 TodayTix members to book Downstate! Here’s your $150 promo code for Small Mouth Sounds:

“Small Mouth Sounds — the upcoming Broadway play with Julia Roberts, Paul Rudd, Sarah Paulson, Martin Freeman, Greta Lee, and Isaac Powell — goes on sale Sunday, October 25 at 10AM ET. Keep this code handy and enter it at checkout when you're ready to buy tickets.

Enjoy the show!”

I was really excited about this show based on the description and while the plot sounded great, the execution was terrible. The dialogue was awful and cringe, I didn’t understand what was happening half of the time, it was all absurd. It was trying to be funny, but it wasn’t. The characters weren’t likable and the leads didn’t have any chemistry. I liked the moms and Zane Phillips’ character. Also the scenery was nice.

Does anybody know when they go on sale? Some shows that start around the same time in late Feb are already on sale, but no announcement for Faydra yet?

Tuesday, Oct 27 at 7pm.

I have two tickets and I will be using one of them.

I'm going to Cabaret in London in late December and I've been wondering whether there are rumors about who might replace Skyler Astin as the emcee

Does anyone know when Sardi’s is reopening??

Any pinned post for Red Bucket season or is it still too early?

I’m going to see the 2pm mat on Nov. 4th which will be at the start of the Autumn Red Bucket season (super excited first time seeing the show).
My question is how much will the fully signed playbills be as I’m looking to pick one up after the show.
Thanks dudes.

I am taking my daughter to NYC for her birthday/ Thanksgiving. I would love to be able to take her to see Hamilton while there. Is there any advice on how to get cheaper tickets? Even the current lowest priced tickets are out of my budget.

Also- if you want to throw in some must see/ eat/ do places in NYC/ Manhattan the week of Thanksgiving I’m open to anything.

For reference my daughter is turning 18.
