Oh, we also got to listen to a hilarious little talk by the usher telling us a bunch of stuff, but most importantly that there were no bathrooms on that level and “remember the 67 stairs you just climbed to get here? There are that many down to the bathrooms, and then back up”
Also, in today’s listening of a Hamilcast someone said it’s
basically faster to leave the theater and run to the Marriott Marquis to pee
during intermission.
Anyhow, toward the end of History Has Its Eyes On You, Cort
leaned over and was like – let me out I’m not gonna make it to
intermission. I’ll let her tell the
whole story, but she ran down those stairs with ushers pointing the way, ripped
a broken heel clean off a boot, and ran back up those stairs for the very end
of Yorktown.
Also, I was a little worried about the rear mezz seats, but
they turned out to be awesome. All the
seating at that level has at least 1 step between levels, so nobody’s head was
blocking my view, and because my seat was so high up in the theater I could see
the whole surround, which meant I saw (or at least noticed) a bunch of new
stuff about the lighting design, and what was happening on the surround.
Again, I highly, highly recommend seeing it whenever the opportunity presents. It was magical in a whole different way, although I’ve now only seen Daniel Breaker as Burr because he moved from the Chicago Company to the Broadway Company in the last year.
