leftyloveshuskies, to answer your question, an article about the show on NPR says:
"Bob Banghart says that bluegrass sound may seem more Southern than Alaskan, but "there was a long tradition of these types of instruments being up north and then it really solidified in the '20s with record players. And then the radio came in, forget about it, all you hear is country music," he says. "I like it, we're building an interesting stew — but it is music

I’m also crossing my fingers for a NT Live recording. It would be amazing. What are the odds? Do they record all their shows?

TheActr97J, your Hamilton from the Public run and your ITW are fabulous! Also, I love the idea of having them all over the place.
This thread inspired me to finally put together my Broadway wall! I only started attending shows like 18 months ago, so I hope to catch up with everyone's walls.

Do we know if / is it possible this will be available later? How has it worked with previous NBC productions? It's hard seeing this from the outside the US. Overall I think I've gotten like, 10 minutes of the show* from snippets on social media and other sites.
*But I'm so in love with what I've seen!

I was at a local production of The Last 5 Years tonight and there was a drunk man next to me. Not kidding. He smelled like booze. Spent the first half making comments to his wife (you know when people think they are speaking quietly but they aren’t?), elbowing me, eating candy loudly, and checking his phoneuntil thank jeebus he fell asleep. I felt like calling the ushers but I was in the middle of the row with 8 people on each side so I thought that was going to be worse. What is it to be do
Your favourite Broadway books Feb 22

Hi there. I know there are lists of Broadway books out there but I’m actively looking for a personal recommendation. Can you share your favourites? Right now I only own Sondheim’s Finishing the hat, the Great Comet book, and the Hamilton one.
Hi there! I recently inherited a record player. I only had a few albums since I didn't have a place to play them and decided to start my Broadway collection with the new Hello Dolly one, but I come to you for inspiration.
What cast recordings do you own on vinyl? If you have a lot, what are some of your favourites?
Also, Is the Ahmanson stage door still on Temple and Grand? That's the most recent info I could find so I wanted to double check. Would love to meet Carmen!
@ACL2006 I apologize. From what I read on what I think was the LA Times, at the moment Carmen is only contracted to do LA, SF and Salt Lake City, if that helps.
