    Thanks! I just checked and looks like some go on sale the 20th as well. I wonder if that's just a typo. Also AEG doesn't list any info on ticket prices or anything.

    I'll have to keep my eye on them. I've already got a reminder set for when they go on sale. Either Boston or Providence isn't too far for me.

    I went directly to Warner Theatre web page and see ticket price ranges between $52 and $96 (which includes stupid add-on fees of $12.50 to $16.50)!

    They want over $100 a ticket for "fair" seats at the San Francisco event.
    For those who have seen it; is it worth that price?

    Phoenix, St Louis and others seem to be in similar range of over $100 - 300-$400 for prime seats.

    However:

    We paid about $185 for the pair to see it in Atlanta. It was really great, and even my non-reading boyfriend enjoyed it. My only hesitation is that it won't be as good as the original run, but if you didn't see it...

    Just saw the show in Boston on Friday, November 21st. Mixed review from me. The music and the singing were phenomenal. Sorry Stephen, but the book/dialog, not so phenomenal. I was trying to figure out why, and the best I can figure is that King's unique style of dialog comes off the page so well because we, the readers, have the benefits of exposition, of inner thoughts, of motivations, etc. A two hour musical does not have the time to invest in the same kind on characterization as a novel, or even a short story. In the end, much of the dialog came off flat and often contrived. The story itself reminds me, thematically, of Roland's journey in The Dark Tower books, but this time, with some resolution. The sparse staging was reminiscent of the musical Once. Overall, well worth my time, and yours. I would love to hear the thoughts from others who have seen it.

    I thought this was a funny quote about SK from JCM.

    You worked extensively with Stephen King on the musical Ghost Brothers of Darkland County. What did you guys have in common?
    I'm a hypochondriac. Steve's a hypochondriac. "Steve, I can't possibly have sickle cell anemia. But I think I do." And he's always got some kind of ankle disease or some shit. But he explained it to me. He said, "Here's the thing, John. You and I make shit up for a living. When we have idle time on our hands, we turn it on ourselves and make shit up. You don't have sickle cell!"

    Stephen King and John Mellencamp Will Redevelop GHOST BROTHERS OF DARKLAND COUNTY for Licensing

    Broadway Licensing is working with Stephen King and John Mellencamp to redevelop their haunting musical for worldwide licensing.

    The Gothic southern musical about a decades-old tragedy that haunts the population of a small town has a roots rock score by Grammy winner Mellencamp, ("Pink Houses", "Jack and Diane", "Small Town") and a book by "Carrie," "Misery" and "The Shining" Master of Horror novelist King. It premiered in a full stage production in 2012 at the ALLIANCE THEATRE in Atlanta, GA. The production also played a limited concert tour.

    "We are humbled and honored to have been entrusted by Steve and John to redevelop their thrilling and innovative musical," says Broadway Licensing president Sean Cercone. "The newly revised version will be available for worldwide licensing in 2019."

    Author Stephen King says "This is terrific news. I loved working with John Mellencamp, and the ghostly result is one of my most proud accomplishments."

    John Mellencamp added, "When Steve and I decided to mount a musical ... neither of us knew what we were doing... we learned on the job.. I have never had so much fun or laughed so hard in my life...."

    A studio album of Ghost Brothers of Darkland County, recorded in 2010, was released from Hear Records/Concord Records Group. A standard, single-disc version includes the complete songs, dialogue excerpts and digital libretto; while a two-disc format features complete songs (with and without dialogue), deluxe artwork, "handwritten lyrics," a libretto and a DVD with a "Making of Ghost Brothers" documentary including interviews with King, Mellencamp and album producer T Bone Burnett along with other bonus material.

    For more information about Broadway Licensing, call (866) 639-7529 or email info@broadwaylicensing.com.

    Broadway Licensing (www.broadwaylicensing.com) is a full service theatrical partner specializing in the development, production, and worldwide distribution of new and established theatrical properties.
