Ma Rainey's Black Bottom Dec 21
2020, 10:07:11 AM
So powerful. We saw the 2003 revival and weren't overly impressed. In fact, as we watched the film we realized the only specific thing we really remembered was the nephew's stuttering issue.

NBC Broadway Special? Dec 14

We enjoyed it. Far from perfect, but fun to see Broadway and performers singing and dancing.
Thought is was interesting that they blurred out the larger "Scientology" sign on that marquee

Assume you are ok paying higher prices and higher taxes then?&qu

Watched it yesterday, after we both fell asleep watching 1 Man, 2 Guvs. Not a dry eye in the room. Don't see that either Boston PBS station is showing it again in the next 2 weeks

Broadway Profiles, TV show with Tamsen Fadal Oct 21
2020, 09:08:29 AM
Bumped into this when looking for something else on my tv's program guide. 30 minute Broadway.com produced show. Seems to be a monthly show, but the episode this past weekend covered relatively recent Broadway and Broadway adjacent stories, like Boys in the Band on Netflix, and short interviews with a chorus member of Moulin Rouge and a cast member of JLP
Not groundbreaking, but it at least fed our Broadway jones for a bit

We felt it was lacking in energy.

THE MUSIC MAN Will Now Start Previews 12/20/21 Oct 16
2020, 02:51:13 PM
Ours were moved from a holiday weekend originally to a non-holiday weekend, so we called and they moved us to a holiday when we will be in NYC
Now they moved us again to a week before a holiday weekend. I'll call them on Monday and hopefully they will move us to the holiday again. We've got the cheapest seats in the house ($99) so hoping we can get those again

Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth
What did they pay Iron Mike?
or Shatner's World. Or one of the Birbiglia shows that didn't have all that stuff falling from the "rafters"

Need help...trying to sell my uncle's Playbills Oct 5
2020, 07:56:44 AM
When I was selling my Playbills on eBay I started them at approx half the highest recent sold price of the same item. This might be more difficult for older Playbills (mine were all under 20 years old), but I'd look for similarly dated ones that have sold that are similarly well known

Refunds for American Utopia at Hudson Theater? Sep 9
2020, 09:39:57 AM
Called that number yesterday afternoon. On hold 5-7 minutes then a representative picked up. Told me they had moved me to similar day/date/time in late 2021. I asked if a refund was possible and she said "yes".
Confirmed the last 4 digits of my card, told me 5-7 business days for full refund including fees. Saw the credit hit my card about an hour ago.

We thought it was a whole lot of fun. Saw it at a matinee and then saw most of the cast at Southern Hospitality having dinner before the evening performance a couple hours later.
