A Catered Affair Is Broadway's Must See Show-Applause Has Amazing Seats

I love everything Faith Prince has done on Broadway. From Jerome Robbins Broadway to Guys and Dolls (my favorite of all), to Bells Are Ringing and so many others. She is a true Broadway star in my opinion.

Now Faith teams up with Harvey Fierstein (Torch Song Trilogy, La Cage aux Folles and most recently in Hairspray) as well as with television and Broadway veteran Tom Wopat (best known for his starring role as Luke Duke in The Dukes of Hazzard and on Broadway in Chicago and Annie Get Your Gun).

A Catered Affair is a new musical with Book by Harvey Fierstein, Music and Lyrics by John Bucchino and Direction by John Doyle. The original screenplay was written in 1956 by Gore Vidal based on Paddy Cayefsky's teleplay about a Bronx couple in 1953 that has the toughest decision to make-whether to spend the entire family savings on their family business or to give their only daughter the most lavish wedding reception of the times.

The show will portray the couple's love for each other since they were married as well as the newly awakened feelings they still have for one another. Not to mention the usual family problems in family relationships with one another.

This show will begin previews at the Walter Kerr Theatre in New York City on March 25,2008. To place an order for great seats you may want to contact the Applause Theatre Service staff at 212-307-7050 or 1-800-451-9930. They have an informative web site and also welcome the opportunity to speak with you when you have a chance.

Enjoy A Catered Affair. It will be one of the great Broadway shows of the season.

Get Spamalot Tickets on Broadway-Applause Theatre Service Has Amazing Seats

If you want to see a great Broadway show, get yourself tickets to the 2005 Best Musical Tony Award-winning show Monty Python's Spamalot. This show www.applause-tickets.com/monty-python.asp has been lovingly ripped off from the 1975 classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail. SPAMALOT is a new musical directed by Mike Nichols, with a book by Eric Idle and an entirely new score created by Eric Idle and John Du Prez.

SPAMALOT tells the legendary story of King Arthur and his knights of the Round Table. There are several beautiful show girls as well as cows, killer rabbits and French people. The Sunday Times said that Monty Python's Spamalot "raises silliness to an art form" and The New Yorker said that the show has been hailed as a "no-holds-barred smash hit".

Right now, you can call the Broadway Ticket Experts at Applause Theatre Service, right in the heart of New York City, and ask for the "insider's price" they have for most performances to this superb show. In fact, beginning on January 18,2008, the former American Idol star Clay Aiken will join this talented cast of Spamalot.

Broadway regular's Jonathan Hadary and Marin Mazzie continue to perform in SPAMALOT and please audiences of all ages. Don't miss out on one of Broadway's funniest musical comedies in recent years.

You can contact Applause at 212-307-7050 or at 1-800-451-9930 7 days a week to secure seats for this show. Don't forget to ask for any "insider's pricing" that should still be available when you call Applause http://www.applause-tickets.com/

The Little Mermaid on Broadway-An Amazing New Show

I recently had the pleasure of seeing Walt Disney Theatrical's newest Broadway show, The Little Mermaid, in previews at New York City's Lunt Fontanne Theatre two times in the last month. I really enjoyed this latest Disney Broadway creation very much, maybe even a little more the second time. I sat within ten rows of the stage the first time and in the rear orchestra the second time. The excellent staging of this production made both close and far away seating a great night at the theatre.

The Little Mermaid is based on Disney's very successful movie of 1989 and is very capably directed by Francesca Zambello, who is known for her fantastic work in theatre and opera. The show will feature many of the songs originally written by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman (Mr. Ashman died in 1981). Ten new songs were added for this show with the help of Glen Slater.

The Little Mermaid is a great story about Ariel, a beautiful young mermaid who falls in love with Prince Eric (a human). Ariel's father is King Triton (played by Norm Lewis) has forbidden Ariel and her "sea pals" to keep going up to the water's surface as he is afraid the humans will cause harm to them. After ignoring her father's warnings, Ariel and her friends, Flounder and Sebastian the crab keep making their trips. Ariel wants more than ever to become human so she can win the heart of Prince Eric. With this in mind, Ariel pays a visit to her wicked Aunt Ursula, the Sea Witch. Ursula agrees to transform Ariel into a human for 3 days with the agreement that Ariel has to get Prince Eric to kiss her by the end of the third day or give her soul to the wicked Ursula forever.

Ariel is played by lead actress Sierra Boggess, a bright, beautiful and energetic young actress who is sure to have a very successful carreer on Broadway. Since part of the arrangement to become human for the 3 days was that she had to give up her voice, I thought she did a phenomenal job on stage with a gorgeous singing voice and ballet like dance movements.

Prince Eric was played by Sean Palmer, playing opposite Ms. Boggess in a very professianal mannner as her hero. Sherie Rene Scott plays Ursula, The Sea Witch and does an outstanding job whenever she's on satge. Her singing voice is one of the finest ever to be heard on Broadway, in fact, I could swear Ms. Scott has a giant fan club of her own each night I saw her. She brings a "fun like" quality to this role that shows she can take her "wicked" character and add just the right amount of comedy to please everyone in the audience.

Sebastian the crab is played by Tituss Burgess, one of the hardest working and most talented actors on Broadway these days. He aims to please as Ariel's closest friend and his "Under The Sea" brings down the house to thunderous applause. Scuttle the seagull is played by Eddie Korbich and Flounder was played by J.J. Singleton both nights I saw the show. They also od an excellent job.

One of the coolest things I noticed was that most of the cast wore "healy's", which are roller skates that are built into their shoes. This clearly gave you the impression that the "sea people" were swimming. All the actors did a great job on the skates, sort of reminds me of the uniqueness of Starlight Express, which played on Broadway many years ago.

I have had the pleasure of seeing all of Disney's shows on Broadway since they came to New York more than 10 years a go. The Little Mermaid is another beautifully orchestrated show which has all the elements of great theatre- an extremely talented cast, great music, a book that is easy to follow, unique costumes, some very good choreography, but most of all...it has heart.

Sometimes people think that they aren't interested in seeing a particular show because they might not like the story line, or the actors or maybe even because they hear it is a show by Disney. Let me tell you now, do yourself a favor and buy some tickets to The Little Mermaid. You very well could see the show that becomes the "hit Broadway show" of the season.

If you need tickets, you can call the friendly people at Applause Theatre Service in New York City at 212-307-7050 or 1-800-451-9930 or go to www.applause-tickets.com/little-mermaid.asp . Just mention my name, maybe they'll give you a discount if you ask.

It's Thursday night, November 29,2007, and it is a little after 8pm. Every Broadway show is performing tonight live in New York City. The 19 day long Stagehands union strike is finally over. Our lives as ticket agents are getting back to normal.

Having been a licensed ticket seller for Broadway, Off Broadway and family event shows like the Radio City Christmas Spectacular for over 30 years now, I can say I have never experienced a time this long when the shows weren't playing. I walked through the theatre district tonight and saw the Broadway neon lights brighter than ever, not to mention the fantastic "electricity like feeling" throughout the cool night air.

Broadway is back. If you want to feel the excitement too, need some information or a description of a top Broadway or Off Broadway show you've been thinking about catching one day-give us a call at 212-307-7050 or at 1-800-451-9930.
