  1. (onstage seating) “lowered the potential box office—only 120 patrons can squeeze onto the stage, versus 360 in the house” — rather than uncomfortable seats, you could just give a bums rush to the paying customers by taking their tickets and tossing them into a back alley with the trash bins for an hour.

  2. The seats actually aren’t uncomfortable at all. I’ve been sitting in them for 10 times as long as the audience will be for the past several days & I’ve been perfectly fine. There’s absolutely no need to whine about it.

  3. I saw the preview last night and all I can say is that this show was fantastic! Matkosky has done a great job directing as usual, and the designers did a brilliant job. Everything about it was great, from the actors to the set. I highly recommend that everyone go see it.

    Also, the seats were quite comfortable. No complaints from the group I went with.
