Right now I’m in Bristol staying with friends. In a few days we’ll be seeing one of the touring companies performing Hamilton which has received excellent reviews. I’ve never seen a live production just the filmed Disney production.
However in a few days I’ll be in London and hoping to see some theater. I’d rather not see something I can see at home on Broadway.
Any recommendations would be appreciated. I like both straight plays and musicals so open to just about anything. I’ll most likely be getting tickets at the last minute. Many thanks.- Cooper and Marc in Calif

This did not get a very good review in The NY Times. Still it might be interesting to see it. I can’t help thinking there’s some connection to the Gaiety male burlesque theater which was run by a Greek woman who disappeared after the theater closed in 2005.

Opera is also visual. At one point Pavarotti weighed 396 pounds. He was 71 when he died.

The opera hadn’t started. They were adjusting the set before it started. By the time the curtain rose it was a full house, at least in the orchestra where I was sitting. I was impressed how much of the audience was in formal attire. Nice to see some NY audiences still dress up. Makes for an attractive evening.

I have a ticket for Saturday, May 11, evening performance. It looks visually stunning and all the artists get fine reviews. I’m looking forward to seeing it

I saw Appropriate. It’s good but not my favorite show this season. Cooper really liked The Outsiders. I haven’t seen it yet. But of all the shows I’ve seen this season Stereophonic is the clear winner.

It’s a brilliant piece of theater. Hard to believe none of the actors are professional musicians. They are now. It’s also quite funny and the pauses in conversation are as riveting as the dialogue. I think this will be the standout when the Tony’s are handed out. Highly recommended.

You’ve read the book. Probably have seen the movie(s) and now, ta dah, the musical. Both the leads, Jeremy Jordan and Eva Noblezada have powerful voices and used them full throttle in today’s performance. There were lots of 20’s inspired dance numbers performed by a really talented ensemble. Suitably sumptuous sets and costumes made the stage dazzle.

I saw a terrific show today called Dead Outlaw. From the musical team who created The Band’s Visit this is a totally different and wonderfully weird story of a real not very accomplished outlaw named Elmer McCurdy. Shot and killed in a 1911 shootout, his mummified corpse spends the next 60 years as a sideshow exhibit traveling the country. Eventually his red-painted corpse is discovered hanging from a noose inside a California amusement park ride.
With a rousing 6 piece band it stars Andrew Durand as McCurdy who blows the roof off the Minetta Lane Theater. The whole cast is great especially Thom Sesma as the corona Thomas Noguchi.
The show has to close April 14 but I’m hoping it will transfer to Broadway. Still I’m glad I saw it in a smaller theater .https://deadoutlawmusical.com/

Yes on the 7th floor. There’s more on the walls that I’ve left out.
Right now the Whitney is getting ready for the Biennial opening March 20.
