If/Then Reviews

That's right theatre fans. If/Then, the new musical starring Tony Award winner Idina Menzel made it's Broadway debut last night at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. Having written and produced my own musical last month I am always excited to see an original musical on Broadway. Now don't get me wrong. Some of my favorite shows of the past few years were either based on a movie (Billy Elliot, Once) or were built around some of my favorite music (Rock of Ages, Motown) That's the great thing about Broadway. There is so much variety. So what did the critic's have to say about If/Then? Let's find out. Enjoy!

If/Then Starring Tony Award Winner Idina Menzel To Open On Broadway This Sunday

Or should I say If/Then starring Adele Dazeem? Sorry. I just couldn't resist. The show which began previews on March 5 will officially open this Sunday at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway. Now to be honest I don't know a lot about the show except it is an original musical which as we all know is pretty rare these days and it stars Idina Menzel and was created by the creators of Next To Normal. I mean isn't that all you really need to know? Well that and if it is any good of course. After all theatre tickets ain't cheap folks. They don't have to be though. Thank goodness for "Insider Prices" right? Unfortunately If/Then is not one of those shows that have a deal like that. Doesn't mean that couldn't change. It really depends on the reviews and of course how well it is selling. As of right now it is selling pretty well so I think we may have to wait awhile until they lower the prices. Keep checking back here in the future for lower rates. Also I will be sure to post the reviews for the show on Monday morning. Let's hope their good. We shall see. Get your tickets to see If/Then at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway. Until next time theatre fans.

Broadway Production Of Violet Starring Tony Winner Sutton Foster To Begin Previews This Friday

That's right theatre fans. One of Broadway's most beloved stars is coming home to star in a new musical. O.K. technically Violet is not a new musical as it first premiered Off-Broadway back in 1997. However this time will mark the shows first time on the Great White Way. Now I know you didn't come here to get a history of the show.


You came here because Sutton Foster is going to be on Broadway again right? Right. Ms. Foster who was last seen on Broadway in her Tony Award winning performance in Anything Goes will begin performances in Violet at the American Airlines Theatre this Friday. Opening night is set for April 20. Now to be honest I know nothing about the show. So for those of you like me here is a brief synopsis about Violet. Enjoy!


Violet tells the story of a young woman's quest for beauty amidst the image-obsessed landscape of the 1960s. Facially disfigured in a childhood accident, Violet dreams of a miraculous transformation through the power of faith. Convinced that a televangelist in Oklahoma can heal her, she hops a Greyhound bus and starts the journey of a lifetime. Along the way, Violet forms unlikely friendships with her fellow riders, who teach her about beauty, love, courage and what it means to be an outsider.


Sounds kind of interesting don't you think? By the way for those of you looking to purchase tickets to see Violet you have come to the right place. Not only that but if you call now you can purchase tickets to see the show at prices that can't be beat. Be advised that this "Special Offer" is only good thru April 20 and as always is subject to availability. Get your tickets to see Violet at the American Airlines Theatre on Broadway. Expect the show to be a big contender at this year's Tony Awards.

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from the great state of Oregon. Bend to be exact. Last week I received a call from a travel agent who's client was planning a trip to London next month and wanted to see a couple of shows while they were there. I take that back. They wanted to see three shows. Their choices were Billy Elliot, Wicked and Blithe Spirit. Three good choices don't you think? Not only that but I have actually seen two out of three of them.


Care to guess which one I didn't see? Don't worry. I won't hold you in suspense. It was Blithe Spirit. So anyway after finding out what they wanted to see I asked the agent when they wanted to go. Because they were going to be there for a almost a week they decided to take a day or two between shows. That way they would have more time to explore London. I know that's what I would do if I ever got the chance to visit there.


Now since they were on a budget they wanted to get good seats but not spend an arm and a leg. Makes sense to me. After all theatre tickets aren't cheap. Anyway after a little research I was able to find them some very nice but affordable seats for all three shows. Oh sure they were in the Balcony but still a full view. After all the theatres in London are not very big. Just like New York. So there you have it folks. Three great shows with great prices to boot. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Les Miserables Reviews

Now believe it or not but in all the years that I have lived in New York I have never seen Les Miserables. Wait a minute. I take that back. I did see Act One twice. Does that count? I did see the movie which I enjoyed for the most part. When I saw it the first time it had been playing for over fifteen years by that point so understandably it came off it a little tired and boring, In fact the day after I walked out of it the show announced it's closing. Look I'm not saying I had anything to do with it. The truth is it had a good run and it was just it's time. Cut to almost four years later and I saw it again. The funny thing is I was actually starting to enjoy it but to be honest I was about ninety pounds heavier than I am now and trying to fit in to one of those chairs was not fun. About 30 minutes into the show I decided to stand in the back but I just wasn't digging it. Don't get me wrong. I stood over a half a dozen times to see Rent but that was my favorite show. Now here we are again and Les Miserables has returned to it's former home the Imperial Theatre in a new production. So what did the critic's have to say? Let's find out.

Revival Of Cabaret To Begin Performances Tonight On Broadway

Finally a show that I am looking forward to this season. Actually there are quiet a few shows that I want to see. This one just happens to be at the top of my list. Having worked in the Box Office at Studio 54 I must have seen Cabaret over a half a dozen times. It was probably more than that if I count all the times peeking in on the show on my way to the Company Managers office to drop off that evenings reports. Now the show which won four 1998 Tony Awards including Best Revival of the Year is set to begin previews tonight, at you guessed it, Studio 54. I guess you can go home again. Reprising his Tony winning role as the Emcee is one Mr. Alan Cumming.


Joining him as Sally Bowles is none other than three-time Academy Award nominee Michelle Williams who is making her Broadway debut. I have not doubt that she will be amazing. Now because of it's previous success at the Tony Awards it will be ineligible in several categories. In fact Michael Riedel of the New York Post speculated in his column today that not only does he think it won't be nominated for Best Revival but that Michelle Williams will be snubbed too. Now look I know that there is a lot of competition this year in the Leading Actress category but she is sure to be a contender. We shall see. Tickets for the show are selling like crazy so don't miss your chance to see what I'm sure will be one of the big highlights of this season. Until next time theatre fans.

Aladdin Reviews

Well the reviews for Disney's latest creation are in and without going into to much detail they are pretty complimentary for the most part. Oh sure there are some things that the critic's didn't like but that is the case with most shows. After all every show can't be a rave right? Regardless of what the critic's have to say Aladdin is her to stay my friends. Now on to the reviews. Enjoy!

New Play The Realistic Joneses A Realistic Look At Life

Now when I first moved to New York twenty-two years ago the only thing I usually went to see were musicals. Now I would rather see a play. Maybe it's because I'm sick of every movie or cartoon being turned into big splashy Broadway musical. Yes I know that they do make original musicals too. It's just that they are few and far between as far as I am concerned. Fortunately I had the chance to see a great new play last night on Broadway. The Realistic Joneses which marks the Broadway debut of Will Enos is one interesting night in the theatre to say the least. Now going into the show I had heard it was a comedy. Well a dark comedy I should say. Plus you know going in the acting was sure to be good considering it's stars.


For those of you that don't know The Realistic Joneses stars Toni Collette Michael C. Hall. Tracy Letts and Marisa Tomei. Now if that is isn't enough to make you want to see the show then I don't know what will. As you can tell I loved the play. Is it for everybody? Probably not I'm afraid. That's the great thing about Broadway. There is something for everyone. By the way for those of you who want to see The Realistic Joneses you have come to the right place. Not only that but we can get you tickets to see it at prices that can't be beat. Be advised that while this "Special Offer" is good thru May 4 is for select seats and as always subject to availability. Get your tickets to see The Realistic Joneses at the Lyceum Theatre on Broadway. Until next time theatre fans.

Broadway To Introduce Thursday Matinees

Oh come on now.  You knew it was bound to happen eventually right? I mean who doesn't want to sit in a crowded theatre on a Thursday afternoon with a bunch of total strangers? Sounds like fun to me. Beginning on April 3 three of Broadway's most popular shows will now be playing at 2pm. Care to guess which ones? Well don't worry. I won't hold you in suspense. They are Cinderella, Mamma Mia and The Phantom of the Opera. Now I don't know about you but I think another weekday matinee is a great idea. I can't tell you how many people over the years have called asking if there were any afternoon shows during the week besides Wednesdays. Well good things come to those who wait because now there are. Who knows if sales go well then maybe more shows will follow suit. We shall see. Until next time theatre fans.

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from the great state of Florida. Maitland to be exact. Yesterday I received a call from a travel agent who's client was planning a last minute trip to New York and wanted tickets to a few shows while they were here. Yes that's right. We are open on Sundays. Saturday's too. Anyway after finding out when they would be here I asked what they wanted to see and when. Well since they were only going to be here for a small amount of time they knew they would probably have to go to two shows in one day. They were right. The shows they wanted to see were Motown, A Raisin in the Sun and the New York Knicks.


Yes I know the last one is not a show but I have no doubt it will be just as exciting. I can say that because I am huge Knicks fan not too mention that they are on a six game winning streak. So know that I knew what they wanted to see I needed to find out when they were available. Like I said they only had a couple of days plus A Raisin in the Sun is one of Broadway's hottest shows. After a little research I was able to find two tickets in the last row of the Orchestra in the Center. I know what you're thinking. The last row? Are they even going to be able to see? Of course they are. It's not a very big theatre. Either are most of the other theatres in New York for that matter.


Plus by sitting a little further back I was able to get them for a rate that was lower than normal. Who doesn't love a bargain right? One show down. Two to go. Now for Motown I suggested he sit in the Front Mezzanine as the viewing is better. Luckily he agreed with me and I got him great seats right on the aisle. Last but not least were the tickets to the New York Knicks. Because they recently renovated the Garden all the viewing is even better than before. Plus once again the price was lower than they had seen anywhere else. So there you have it folks. Three great events with excellent seats and low prices too. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Spring Is Almost Here

That's right theatre fans. It's time to put away your winter coats and gloves and get ready for Spring. Well almost. I'm guessing we probably have another week or two of cold weather. Now I don't know about you but I am ready for a little sunshine. This past Winter has been insane. Spring can not come soon enough my friends. Not only that but with Spring comes some incredible savings as well. Just think about it. Over thirty Broadway and Off-Broadway shows that you can see for less. Sounds to good to be true now doesn't it? Well it's not. In fact right now is the perfect time to come to New York and take in a show. So why not save a little money at the same time? Use that extra money to go shopping or better yet treat yourself to a nice meal. I mean it's not like there is a shortage of great restaurants or place to shop. We're not called "The Capitol of the World" for nothing folks. Call now and see what one of the friendly ticket experts at Applause can do for you. See you at the theatre.

Rocky Reviews

Well the reviews for Rocky are in and for the most part they aren't too bad. Oh sure the New York Times wasn't exactly a rave but the truth is a review from them doesn't have as much punch as it did years ago when Frank Rich was still writing for them. Boy do I miss him.

Rocky To Open Tonight On Broadway

You've seen the movie. Now see the show. I have to admit that when they first announced that they were turning Rocky into a musical I wasn't too surprised. After all they've turned almost every other movie into a musical right? Well maybe not all but it sure feels like it. The show which is of course based on the 1976 Academy Award winning movie is set to open tonight on Broadway at the Winter Garden Theatre. Now believe it or not but I have never been to that theatre.


Yes that's right. In all the years that I have lived here I somehow managed to avoid both Cats and Mamma Mia. Well not anymore because next week theatre fans I am seeing Rocky. That means I have now been in every theatre on Broadway. Well except for the ones like the Times Square Theatre which is empty and the Liberty Theatre which is home to the Liberty Diner. Who knows? Maybe I'll grab a bite to eat after the show and check another theatre off my list.


Now I'm not going to bore you with a synopsis of the show since anybody that is going to see it has already seen the movie. Several times I am guessing. Now as  much as I loved the first one I will admit that I am a little partial towards the fourth one. It does have the best soundtrack after all. Maybe if this is a success they will turn the other ones into musicals too. Well except for the fifth one. I don't think anybody wants to sit thru that again. No matter how good the songs are.


Anyway for those of you who are looking to purchase tickets to the show there is no better time than right now. Good seats are now available for all performances and at prices that can't be beat. Just call now and ask for the Rocky "Insider Price" and we will take care of the rest. Watch for tomorrow's blog when I will post the reviews of the show. Let's hope their good. Until next time theatre fans.

Tony Award Winner Audra McDonald To Return To Broadway This Spring

Is it just me or does it feel like Audra McDonald was just on Broadway? Maybe it's because she has been a Broadway fixture for the better part of two decades. Plus she's won five Tony Awards since she made her Broadway debut in Carousel in 1994. For that role she won her first Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Musical. Now following her first Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical she is set to return to the Great White Way since 2012. Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill is set to begin previews at the Circle in the Square Theatre on Broadway on March 25 with opening night set for April 13.


As of now the show is scheduled to run thru June 1. The show which played a limited run last year Off-Broadway is set in Philadelphia in 1959 and tells the story of legendary jazz singer Billy Holiday and the songs that made her famous. Audra McDonald as Billy Holiday? I don't know. However if anyone can pull it off it would be her. I mean you don't win five Tony Awards for nothing right? Now for those of you looking for tickets to see this show you have come to the right place. We sell it. Well that and every other show in New York. Get your tickets to see Audra McDonald in Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill on Broadway at the Circle in the Square Theatre. Until next time theatre fans.

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from the great state of Maryland. This past Saturday we received a web order from a customer who was planning a last minute trip to New York with his family and wanted to see a show while he was here. Now while Applause may be open seven days a week we do take orders thru our website too. Care to guess what he wanted to see? Why none other than one of Broadway's most beloved shows of all time. That's right. I am talking about Les Miserables. 


So anyway know that I knew what he wanted to see I asked him when he wanted to go. Now since it was a last minute trip he knew seats might be difficult to come by.He was right. Not only that but trying to get four seats together might be tough as well. Luckily for them they didn't care if they sat together. Makes sense right? I mean it's not like they can talk during the show right? When all is said and done I was able to get Center Orchestra and Center Front Mezzanine. Plus I got them for a rate that was lower than they has seen on other sites. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

See Broadway's Motown The Musical For Less This Spring

Still haven't seen one of Broadway's hottest shows? Well what are you waiting for people? Now is the best time to get tickets to see Motown The Musical. Not only that but at prices that can't be beat. I saw the show last year before it opened and absolutely loved it. Of course being a big fan of the music certainly helped for sure. In fact The Temptations are one of my favorite groups of all times. Throw in the Jackson Five, Diana Ross, Smokey Robinson and Marvin Gaye and you have one incredible night in the theatre my friends. Now for those of you who want to see the show you have come to the right place. In fact not only do we sell this show but every show both On and Off-Broadway. Be advised that while this "Insider Price" is good thru May 22 it is not good for Saturday and Sunday matinees and as always subject to availability. Get your tickets to see Motown The Musical at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre on Broadway. Until next time theatre fans.

Customer Story

What? Has it really been over two and a half months since my last customer story blog? Now that doesn't mean we haven't had any customers since then. If that was true we would be out of business. No it's just between the holidays when we are more hectic and writing about all the new shows I have been a little busy. Not too mention I was on vacation last week. Now enough about me. Let's talk about one of our amazing customers.


Last Friday I received a call from a travel agent who's client was planning a trip to New York in April and wanted to see a couple of shows while they were here. Their choices were Matilda The Musical and After Midnight. Now while I have seen Matilda and loved it I have never seen After Midnight. It did however get amazing reviews. I'm guessing that's why they wanted to see it. So anyway after finding out what they wanted to see and when they wanted to see it I asked the agent how many tickets they needed and of course where they wanted to sit.


Well as it turns out they needed twenty-two tickets to Matilda and twenty-four tickets to After Midnight. Now that's what I call a big order. When all was said and done I was able to get them excellent seats in the Front Mezzanine for both shows and at a price that was lower than they were expecting. Plus I was able to get them seats right in front of each other that way they had the best view. Sounds like a win-win don't you think? Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Broadway Revival Of A Raisin In The Sun Starring Denzel Washington To Begin Previews This Week

Well would you look at that? Another show that I am looking forward to seeing. No real surprise as Denzel Washington is my favorite actor. Now here he is back on Broadway once again. Not only that but he is starring in one of Broadway's most beloved plays of all time. Now when the show was first announced last year there was understandably a bit of disbelief among the theatre community. Myself included. After all the character of Walter Younger is supposed to be in his mid thirties. Don't get me wrong. I love Denzel but the man is going to be sixty at the end of this year. The truth is you can get  away with it more on stage than on film. Plus he's DENZEL FREAKIN WASHINGTON!


So who cares if he's a little older right? After all theatre has always been about suspending belief anyway. Previews for A Raisin In The Sun are scheduled to begin previews at the Barrymore Theatre on March 8 with opening set for April 3. As of now it is scheduled to run thru June 15. Now in most cases of reviews are good the show will extend. However with star vehicles like that the run is pretty much set in stone before it even begins. Either way I sure don't want to miss it. Get your tickets to see A Raisin In The Sun starring Denzel Washington at the Barrymore Theatre on Broadway. Until next time theatre fans.

Tony Award Winning Musical Cabaret To Return To Broadway Later This Month

I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am that Cabaret is coming back to Broadway. Yes I know. You're excited too right? One of my favorite theatrical experiences of all time was seeing Cabaret back in 1998. At the time I was working as an intern in the casting department at the Roundabout Theatre Company which meant that not only did I get the chance to meet tons of stars and directors but also got to see all the shows. In fact I actually got to attend the final dress rehearsal of the show prior to it's first preview. I will never forget sitting at a table next to the stage as the Kit Kat Girls made their first appearance.


Now I'll admit that I was a little taken aback when one of them started flirting with me. Not that I minded. What a great night at the theatre. Not only that but Liam Neeson and Vanessa Redgrave were sitting right behind me. It doesn't get any better than that my friends. After my internship was over I ended up working in the box office at the theatre and shortly after that I was transferred to Studio 54. Care to guess what show was playing there? That's right. Cabaret. Over the next few years I must have seen the show twenty or thirty times. I guess you could say I liked it. In fact even after I left the company I was invited back to see the final performance.


Now here we are ten years later and the show is coming back home to Studio 54. Not only that but Alan Cumming is recreating his Tony Award winning role. Joining him as Sally Bowles is three-time Academy Award nominee Michelle Williams. Now if that doesn't make you want to see it than I don't know what will. Previews are set to begin on March 21 with opening night scheduled for April 24. As of now the show is only on sale thru August 31 but I'm sure it will extend. After all the last revival was only supposed to run for a few months and instead played for almost six years. Will lighting strike twice? We will soon find out. Get your tickets to see Cabaret on Broadway at Studio 54. Who knows? You might just see me there. Until next time theatre fans.

Les Miserables Is Back On Broadway Where It Belongs

Believe it or not but I have never seen Les Miserables. I take that back. I did see the movie. Does that still count? Now while I never got around to seeing the stage production I have been a fan of the music for as long as I can remember. Who knows? Maybe I will finally get around to seeing this time. After all I'm sure it will be playing for a long time. This new production in honor of it's twenty-fifth anniversary began previews this past Saturday at the Imperial Theatre where the original production played for over twelve years. Let's hope this one is just as successful. Now for those of you like me who have never seen the show you are in luck. We sell it. Well that and every other show both On and Off-Broadway. Get your tickets to see Les Miserables at the Imperial Theatre on Broadway. Until next time theatre fans.

Daniel Radcliffe To Return To Broadway This Spring In The Cripple Of Inishmaan

Let me just say that I am not a Harry Potter fan. As a matter of fact the only thing that I have ever seen Daniel Radcliffe is when he hosted SNL a couple of years ago. Look I am sure he is a great actor. Plus you have to respect the fact that he continues to return to Broadway despite the fact that he has never been nominated for a Tony Award for any of his performances. The Cripple of Inishmaan, which first premiered in London in 1996 opened Off-Broadway at the Public Theatre in 1998 where it opened to critical acclaim.


This new production which played a recent engagement in London also starring Mr. Radcliffe will make it's official Broadway debut when it begins performances at the Cort Theatre on April 12. Opening night is set for April 20. Now I don't know about you but that just may be the shortest preview period that I can ever recall. Good thing they've done the show already right?As of now the show is scheduled to run thru July 20 but as we all know if reviews are good it could stick around a little longer. I mean it's not like he's rushing off to make another Harry Potter movie after all. Get your tickets to see Daniel Radcliffe in The Cripple of Inishmaan at the Cort Theatre on Broadway. Until next time theatre fans.
