Farinelli and the King

I wanted to combine this show with my trip to NY but couldn’t leave it to the mercy of theatre crowds. So I booked the ticket online and had a convenient experience.

The show is worth all the critical acclaim. It’s a brilliantly executed show and takes you back to the era of Shakespear. I bought the tickets on headout after searching for the cheapest option.

I always choose headout, I end up lot of discounts and also accumulate cashback points. Serves well for a theatre regular like me.

Farinelli had been running full house shows over the weekends since the premiere and I wanted to make sure I had confirmed tickets. Which is why I chose to book them online and it turned out to be great because I also chose my tickets and didn’t have to bother with waiting in lines.

Fantastic show. If you are a theatre buff then you will love to see the treatment of the play, it’s authentic and really interesting. The imagery harks back to an older time and makes the play a great experience.

See it if you want to see a masterful performance, as usual, from Rylance. The setting is absolutely gorgeous, as are the costumes. Great singing.
