    And we're back! Only this time for a completely different production with another one of my favs. Every Brilliant Thing was a moving play focused on mental health. Mariska Hargitay stared in the one person show and being that she is our idol/role model, we booked a mom's day out to see our Queen shine. Once again, the theater ran like a well oiled machine. The staff gave great direction on how to find our seats and the intimate setting made the show that much more immersive.

    We had the pleasure of seeing a very good play here in this historic and one of New York's oldest theaters. The theater was built in 1902-1903. It has 970 seats on three levels. We sat on the main floor and we had a great view. Our play was titled "Burn This" and starred Adam Driver and Keri Russell and a it took place in the 1980's. My daughter and I really enjoyed the play and getting a meet and greet with both stars after the show. We both were able to have our playbooks signed by Adam and Keri and they were very friendly and accommodating. What I found interesting is that Henri B. Harris was the original operator of this theater but he perished in the sinking of the Titanic. His widow Renee Harris survived and a continued to operate the theater until the Great Depression. There was a lot of Titanic themed pictures on the wall in the lobby area. I loved learning this fact as I am a huge fan of the history and story of The Titanic. A great theater to see a show in NYC.

    Seating is comfortable, and the sightlines are excellent from most sections. The theater is cozy but elegant, making it great for both musicals and plays. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the location in the Theater District is very convenient for a night out. Overall, it's a lovely space to enjoy live theater, with a great atmosphere and excellent acoustics.

    Fun fact- this theater was Built in 1902 and it's one of Broadways oldest Surviving Venues. The history of it is quite interesting, the man who originally owned it passed away in the sinking of the Titanic in 1912 and then was taken over by his wife. Over the years it's went through many transitions, it was once a nightclub, a movie theater, radio studio and television studio and was not used for Broadway shows until 2017. I came here last week to watch Every Brilliant Thing with Daniel Radcliffe as the performer- he himself was absolutely outstanding as a single man performer. There is a bar in the lobby once you enter, we had front row tickets on the dress circle level that also had its own bar and bathroom area- the bathrooms are pretty small here with only two stalls. I found the seats to also be pretty comfortable and mg back was not throbbing by the end of the show which it usually does when watching shows at these venues. There isn't much glitz and glam within the theater itself but it's still a pretty nice place to go watch a show. The stage door is on the next street over where there is a lobby area you can cross through to get over there.

    Came to see Waiting For Godot, starring Keanu Reeves and Alex Winters, at 7pm on December 30, 2025. It was a great performance, and the theater staff have been wonderful! Even though I have a QR code, I went to the box office to get a physical ticket. I sat in Orchestra D 104, and bought my ticket over a month in advance to avoid the price increases. Chatted with a really sweet gal who worked at the merch booth when I was buying a magnet before the show started, and she complimented my Samurai Jack jacket and said she hoped I would approach her because she loves Samurai Jack and that era of Cartoon Network. We geeked over Samurai Jack, Teen Titans, Cartoon Network, and of course, she talked about the cast and how everyone is amazing. Keanu and Alex haven't been stage dooring, but if one is lucky, they MIGHT catch a glimpse of them walking out the theater. Apparently, they stopped stage-dooring because Keanu has had stalkers who ruined it for everyone. If you search Reddit, you'll find links to the video of the crazy lady who calls herself Keanu's "divine wife" and chased after his car and tried to open the car door AS IT WAS PULLING AWAY, to the point that 3 security guards had to force her off the door and throw her to the ground. I don't blame Keanu one bit for not coming out to interact with fans afterwards. Regardless of his celebrity status, that must have been a terrifying incident! I'm so grateful I got to see Keanu and Alex perform live from such amazing seats!

    The Hudson Theatre impressed us from the moment we arrived. The entrance staff was incredibly organized, making the crowds move smoothly and stress-free. Inside, the theater staff went above and beyond--they even helped me track down my lost cell phone, which I was sure was gone forever. Truly outstanding service. Our end-row seats were easy to access, which made getting in and out a breeze, and the acoustics were excellent--every line was crystal clear. We came to see Waiting for Godot and absolutely loved Keanu Reeves' performance. A fantastic experience all around!

    Came here to see "Every Brilliant Thing" in late February. Friday evening show. It was cold outside and unfortunately they didn't open the doors as scheduled. Normally it's 1 hour/50 minutes before showtime, but they opened 30 minutesIt felt rushed. I had access to the "platinum lounge" and I wouldn't recommend it. The drinks were cheaply made. Pure water. I even watched him dilute the cosmo with water. The staff in the theater were helpful and the show was "brilliant". I personally didn't think the seats were too smushed together, but I had an aisle seat.

    Amazing classic Broadway venue. Located right at Times Square on 44th. This historic theater has been home to many A-list stars and top performances. It's a medium sized auditorium where it feels intimate and close to the stage. I was in row D on the Dress Circle (middle balcony) and had an excellent view. It was an absolute blast to see Keanu on stage with Bill&Ted pal Alex Winter performing Waiting for Godot. They even sneaked in an air guitar reference, which had the entire audience burst out in laughter. Highly recommend theater and play. Got tickets at the box office 2 hours before showtime and paid less than online portals. Got really lucky that there were a few seats left at that point.

    Don't recall when I was at this theater last, though it's not a huge theater. The theater entrance is on W. 44 St between 6th and Broadway. We went to see the show "Waiting for Godot" starring Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter directed by Jamie Lloyd. Had tickets to the last rows, even though the seats are comfortable and there was enough room to let someone past while standing up, I was grateful that I got to semi-stand when I got tired of sitting. The staircase to the balcony is a hike up marble staircase. The women's restrooms were located in the basement (couldn't tell you how many stalls; when I saw the line I immediately turned around and was heading toward my seat) and 1 level below the balcony (2 stalls, which didn't game the really line long). The only merchandise stand is next to the bar on the main entrance. There are various bars located throughout the theater. After the show, we exited at W. 44 St. If you are looking for autographs, you have to go to the W. 45 St. Enjoy.

    My first time going to a performance at Hudson Theatre and it was wonderful! Entry, merch, and drinks are pretty quick and easy. Staff was friendly and helpful. The theatre is small and even though we were at the seats near the top the view was still really good. The theatre is beautiful and I recommend seeing a show here.

    First time coming to this theatre. I sat on the third floor balcony up front, where myself and those beside me were told they'd have to use the restroom before the show as we wouldn't be able to get up once the show started. Very little leg room, a tight fit. The view was great even from up high though.

    Despite being placed in the balcony for the musical "The Last Five Years," the seat was actually very cushiony and comfortable with the more spacious legroom compared to other theaters in Times Square/Hell's Kitchen. My legs didn't hurt sitting there for 1.5 to 2 hours. Several flights of stairs (like 3-4) to get to the balcony though, so beware of the hike upstairs if you're not a walking person. Was placed in the second row on the rear corner of the right side. The view wasn't the greatest and a bit distorted since I wasn't seated in the middle, so I saw more of the overhead and side views. Wasn't too bad overall. The rounded theater itself was shaped as a sphere/dome instead of a rectangular venue. It was more of a traditional theatre.

    The Last Five Years, with Nick Jonas.

    Came to the Hudson Theatre, in order to see The Last Five Years. The theatre is a sight to behold. The architecture is gorgeous and even the box office window is ornate. I spoke to an Usher and she explained how they have maintained Tiffany tiles, from 1913, intact and beautiful, along the mezzanine seating facade. The play deals with a couple's breakup. She begins at the breakup and he begins at the first kiss. Both sides of a 5 year relationship play out in 90 minutes. The performers were Nick Jonas and Tony Award winner, Adrienne Warren. The play will run until June 22nd and I would give it a 70% out of 100%, which is higher than the current show-score.com rating. The theatre receives 4 stars. The play....3.

    I can write many reasons to see Hamilton, the Broadway musical…read more 1. The lyrics resonates depth with meaning. 2. The music is a blend that draws heavily of hip-hop, rap, R&B, soul, pop, and traditional Broadway show tunes. Modernized to 2015 era. Theatre patrons will not fall asleep. Theatre patrons will not be bored. Your ticket price paid is worth the theatrical experience. 3. It is based on the biography Alexander Hamilton, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States who was an instrumental supporter of the U.S. Constitution who fought alongside President George Washington in the Revolutionary War. His work laid the foundation of America whose face is worthy to be depicted on the U.S. $10.00 bill. 4. It depicts history of Hamilton's journey beginning as a Caribbean immigrant rising to America's first Secretary of the Treasury. It is deeply rooted in New York City history. It depicts American history of the opposition fight for independence and creation Independence of United States of America. He is buried in Trinity Church, Financial District, Lower Manhattan, NYC. It also narrates Aaron Burr's rivalry and jealously Hamilton's strong ambition, brilliance, and determination to rise. "Hamilton wrote the other 51!" Running time: about 2 hours and 45 minutes including a 15 minute intermission. I went to the room where it happens. I write this review like I was running out of time. Yesterday is a memory. Today is an opportunity. Tomorrow is not promised. Non-stop. Keep writing! I tell my story of my experience. It was exciting, lively and upbeat which does takes you back in time of Revolutionary America in 18th century period clothing with modern language and modern music. Ticket prices are highly extortionate! Tickets starts $127.00 to $155.00 for upper balcony or standard face-value seats. My rear orchestra center ticket was an astonishing extortionate $228.00! Hamilton, the Broadway musical makes use of the Richard Rodgers Theatre's double-nested rotating stage (turntables) prominently to create a dynamic, continuous movement and cinematic flow. I wish I saw the 2015 original cast Alexander Hamilton (Lin-Manuel Miranda) and Aaron Burr (Leslie Odom Jr.). Wait for it. Forward, eleven (11) years later I am now seeing it in 2026. I now have another Playbill and Broadway show ticket to add to my growing Playbill collection. Casting is non-white actors as the Founding Fathers of the United States and other historical figures for inclusion and equality. As per Lin-Manuel Miranda, songwriter, actor, and producer who described Hamilton: "America then, as told by America now." There is no traditional stage curtain for this Broadway show, but it did start and end on time - on point. There are 34 musical numbers total (17 musical numbers in each Act). The narrative is almost entirely sung and rapped through, thus, the numbers flow directly into each other without the traditional pause to segue in-between numbers. There is very little dialogue for spoken word as I would like a mix. There are occasional expletive explicit laden lyrical lines/ verses depicting strong explicit language "goddamnit." This includes uncensored F-word during the indiscretion of Hamilton's affair. "Cabinet Battle #1" & "Cabinet Battle #2" feature insults and harsher colloquial terms as "pain in the ass" and "shit." There are other numbers where expletive explicit laden lyrical embedded are "bastard" and "whore." Surely, my teddy bears speak more eloquently than thee! The costumes replicate 18th century Revolutionary era including U.S. founding fathers in white linen or lace cravats. My predilection for Hamilton musical numbers are: Satisfied Wait For It That Would Be Enough Yorktown (The World Turned Upside Down) Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story Live with intention. My passions and interests entice me to pursue more to look around. "When everyone who loves me has died" this I can absolutely relate. "Death does not discriminate. It takes and it takes and it takes. I am the one thing in life I can control. I am an original." These versus resonate depth for meaning. Rise Up!

Not Slytherin. Not Slytherin. I have been a Harry Potter fan since the early 2000s when the first book by J.K. Rowling was printed and released. I absolutely refused to see a double-day / two-part play show format 5+ hours to be left hanging and return another day/time as it was originally produced, but this has changed which prompt as my reason to see it years later in 2026. This Broadway play does not play John Williams' film score "Hedwig's Theme" as I had desirable hoped. I do believe in magic. I saw Tom Felton perform his originated role as Draco Malfoy from the film franchise. As per "New York Theatre Guide" Tom Felton reprise his role as adult Draco Malfoy now through January 3, 2027! Run time: 2 hours and 55 minutes, with one intermission. One word: WOW! The narrative was at first somewhat difficult to follow especially the Time-Turner Effect scenes of what exactly did Albus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy changed or prevent from occurring? The set design, staging for quickly moving set, props by swirling long robes without revealing stage hands' faces, costumes are great and resonantly brought the viewer into J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter world as an adult nineteen (19) years after J.K. Rowling's final novel, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" of Harry, Ron and Hermione. The special effects including character swap Polyjuice Potion, including Dementors menacing floating near the audience and aerialist stunts in duels were amazing. I particularly like the special effects from Time-Turner for use of projection mapping high-powered projectors cast warping, liquid-like visual distortions; acoustic design low-frequency sound waves and the entire set appear to bend, stretch, and ripple effect like a disturbed puddle reverberating into the auditorium. The clocks placed in the corners of the stage spun recklessly rapidly. WOW. Voldemort's half-daughter leaves "invisible" scribbles on a bookshelf to be decoded by a black light above the audience visible on the ceiling and balcony facade projected throughout the auditorium walls in an eerie shade of green which garnered a lot of oohs from the audience including myself. Oh! Hot air emitting from Scorpius' ears after he eats candy is very comically humorous. The narrative does include and bring back old characters as the cruel villain, apathetic Dolores Umbridge and the wailing angst Moaning Myrtle and ill-fated Cedric Diggory. Moaning Myrtle's costume was not true to the book as her hair is not in pigtails and she is not wearing the Hogwarts uniform. Moaning Myrtle is depicted as grayed out who is a ghost. Draco Malfoy's iconic film line: "Scared, Potter?" and Harry Potter's response "you wish" are spoken resonate an echo in this Broadway play from the film. I purchased jelly beans and one chocolate frog. My chocolate frog contains Albus Dumbledore card. Yes, there is contained fire, and water tank underneath the stage.

    Date: Monday, March 2nd, 2026 Time: around 3:15pm…read moreParty of: 4 GUESTS THAT DAY - *Nicole Kidman *Luke Thompson *Jack Hughes, Quinn Hughes & Hilary Knight *Chef Mario Carbone One of my friends has been wanting to go to a Fallon show for the past few years. We take a yearly trip to NYC, so he always signs up. This year, we scored and got tickets. We actually signed up for two days and got into both. Mon had the better guest lists (at least in our opinion) so we gave up the other tix. It's a process to get in, so nothing too surprising. The earlier you get there, the more of a chance you will sit closer. All in all, we were out by around 6:30pm. Tho they did add a game that was going to air on a another day with I believe the One Piece cast? A good experience if you are into talk shows. It's free, and we got a jar of carbone sauce due to mario carbone being a guest. What's there to complain about? REVIEW #4000

    This was a fine experience. I'm not really a Fallon fan but the experience of watching a 'live to…read moretape' recording was pretty interested. We didn't have tickets, so we went to the gift shop at 30 rock through the 6th ave entrance to score some stand-by tickets. We arrived what I would call late, at about 11am. If you want to get these stand-by tickets I'd recommend arriving as close to 8am as you can, because every ticket is numbered and they can only fit so many people into the studio (they will always try to fill it). If I recall correctly the tickets said to come back to 30 rock at 3:15 but note - if you arrive a bit later, say 3:30, it won't effect your chances of getting in - the most you can do to increase your chances to see a show that day by walking in is to get there at 8am when they first start giving out the numbered stand-by tickets. Also, while they say you cant bring in bags, I had a smaller sized north face backpack and my friend had a large plastic bag and a small purse. If your number gets you in to see the show that day, you will pass through security like at an airport. Everything is extremely orderly and organized, the only stressful part is 'am I going to get in to see the show or did I just spend an hour and a half of my day for nothing.' My friend and I just got in under the wire, with the guy behind us being the very last person to stand-by for this day's show (there were about 56 stand-by visitors accepted that day). You will have an opportunity to use a bathroom before you sit for the filming, so don't be concerned about that. If you're a fan of TV or of Fallon you might prepare a question or two to ask him, he took a number of questions from the audience. The funniest one was 'are you going to use that entire bit you just did' because Jimmy and Drew Brees spitting pumpkin seeds went on far, far, FAR too long, about 3? minutes, which was about 2:45 longer than it needed to be. Jimmy was quick with the 'no, that's going to be edited down.'

    Come From Away is one of the best shows I've seen on Broadway…read more The show is amazing! 90 minutes of pure entertainment. It's a musical about the 911 flights that had to land in Newfoundland. It hits all the emotions in a short time. I found myself laughing, falling in love with the characters and even felt a tear here and there. There's no intermission, so before you know it the shows over. I paid full price through American Express but when my husband came to join me a week later, we were able to get tickets at the TKS booth in Times Square for $75 a piece ( which was more than half off what I paid the first time!) and for both shows I was able to sit center orchestra 6 rows back. Totally enjoyable both times. The music was great and the actors were even better. I highly recommend this show. If you're in NYC between 1/18 - 2/13/22 check out NYC Broadway Week -they're offering 2 for 1 tickets on some great shows and this is one of them.

    So after the 9/11 Attack the US Airspace was immediately closed. And airplanes already in the air…read morewere instructed to land at the nearest airports. About 38 planes and a total of 6,000 passengers from all over the world landed in a small airport called Gander, Newfoundland in Canada. Gander is this tiny town in Canada so the locals there had to quickly figure out how to accommodate all these people. Come From Away tells such a warm - hearted and inspiring story about how the folks in Gander welcomed these travelers into their homes for about 4 days. It's such an emotional yet powerful play about humans helping humans from all over the world . Our lives gets interrupted, but at some point we must continue living no matter how tough things get. Highly recommend going to see this show when in NYC if you are a history kinda person. Had a great time blogging on Friday, January 14, 2022 at 7PM EST. I'd sat in Row J - Seat 116. FYI, no matter where you sit in the theater you'll have an incredible view of the stage. This play was about 100 minutes with no intermission.
