Also I particularly enjoyed the parts of the exhibit that contrasted Broadway with the West End. I hadn't realized, for example, that the West End has a larger percentage of non-musicals than Broadway, that West End shows are much less expensive to produce, or that some West End theatres have as few as 250 seats.... Read more Read less

Also It was very generous of Show-Score to sponsor this event, which was well organized and provided a friendly welcome.

We were encouraged to provide feedback about shows we want to see and new features we might want.

I would have liked to meet the people I follow so maybe next time, the badges could show our user name - and I will try to socialize more next time.... Read more Read less

Don't see it if There's no good reason NOT to see the exhibit if you love theater. The event was a great way to meet the folks behind the show-score curtain

Also Minor suggestion. Rather than asking people to note the (high end) shows they still haven't seen, ask them to note the show they saw with shows-score that they liked the most. I enjoy all the off and off off Broadway shows I never would have seen without show score and it would have been fun to talk about them.... Read more Read less
