Me too! We're seeing the show May 18 so if the recordings come out my husband and I are back and forth about whether we listen beforehand or wait lol

I wouldn't, honestly. Let Josh Groban's soaring voice be a surprise. I have been listening to the OBC on repeat since seeing the show and the music is similar enough that it won't be a rude awakening. The style of singing is also very close for many characters, really honors the original cast. (It isn't like with Hadestown where I am glad I listened to the OBC in advance so the big changes from the original recording weren't so jarring).

But also since they didn't announce a release date when they first broke the news a week or so ago I suspect it will be after May 18.

What impressed me most while seeing it is that it honestly felt like I was listening to a studio recording, their voices were so pitch perfect. Compared to Parade where it was all a bit rougher and not as strong singing as the OBC.

I don't know if it will be different with the Broadway crowds, but when I saw it in Brooklyn he was incredibly patient and willing to go around to everyone and take selfish and hang out, so fingers crossed for you!

Omg that is great to hear! Thank you ❤️
I’ve never done a stage door before so this will be fun.

Aw good luck! You are going to want to book it outside after the show (don't go to the bathroom or anything first) if you want to ensure you have a good position by the railing, the stage door area can often fill up fast.
