Damn I would've loved to have read the original post.

Finally watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on TiVo and it never fails to make me emotional to watch them cut the ribbon - to me that's the beginning of the holiday season. But I was definitely extra emotional how they pulled it off this year, incorporating so many elements from NYC celebrations cancelled earlier this year.

It was also a nice change to not have to watch all the Macy's VIPs sitting in the stands on 34th Street, bored parents and distracted kids squis

Not for anything, but I'm pretty sure it won't be running at any real loss. I'm willing to bet they'll be trying and largely succeeding in getting those ridiculously priced seats right up as soon as they go on sale, especially if there's so few of them. Imagine the bragging rights again?

Screw it. Im done seeing Broadway powers protect Broadway predators.

We all know about The NY Times story that was squashed.

Were picking up where they left off and will publish what they wouldnt.

"we definitely want to bring" is not the same as "coming"

 

Only thing I'll mention is before Phantom he did a couple of years on ABC's "Quantico" opposite Priyanka Chopra.

I honestly don't care. The world is literally burning and we're gonna die soon anyway, so if a C-Lister donates a couple of bucks, so what. I'm tired of trying to keep track of what we're supposed to boycott and/or cancel anymore and most people easily forget anyway.

I think his apology is kinda of lame, but whatever. I'm so far beyond it now, the world is ending.

Do tell. Immediately.

Wait, but if you look at the eight main characters, aren't at least 50% of them LGBT and get a ton of onstage time? Sure the gays don't get the A storyline, but it's not like they're marginalized or sidelined at all. In fact I'd argue they get the best songs and best lines in the thing.

Literally none of this has any impact on our lives. And yet here we are.

Great to see a musical adaptation in the works actually moving along, I feel like it's been awhile since we've had such a thing. While I'm still annoyed Erivo could nab an EGOT based on one role, her profile has certainly risen since this was originally announced years ago so it seems a given. But more timely, current events and recent more high-profile POC projects have risen the stock of black actors besides the "expected choices" like Bey and J-Hud, so I'

I for one am thrilled. I can't imagine it'll be no more than award presentations and montages  of the season a la the PBS hour back in the day, along with special virtual solo numbers and special guests.

The fact they're doing this now is a truly a celebration of the season, not a traditional showcase/commercial for Broadway. (I mean, it's going to be digital, so it'll likely be for those looking for it.) But it gives some sort of closure to the season for the

I don't care about cancelling him, or anyone really. At this point we've cancelled so many people I can't keep track of who and what's left.

But he does need to respond somehow, but not in one of those gaslighting "I'm sorry if some people were offended" semi-apologies.

Hopefully he can just issue the apology and we can move on. I don't have the energy anymore. 

One of the weirdest nights in the theatre. I was at a late preview and Kathie Lee came in to sit in the orchestra, shaking hands and taking pictures. Then the show started and for the first time in forever, numerous people were leaving during Act One, walking right past her as they left. I don't know about Act Two because like a good number of people behind me, a lot of people were leaving at intermission and not coming back. 

It was a lot of fun, saw it a couple of times. Just too "Off-Broadway" for most audiences I guess because I guess it has to have a certain cache.

This is a mammoth closing announcement. Back in May, the plan to reopen Le Rêve was going to be the model everyone else was copying. Now, after 15 years and more than 6,000 performances, it's not reopening at all, with 275 cast and crew are out of work, and it's likely only the beginning. 

"As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent physical distancing requirements for which an end-date cannot be predicted, but are necessary to keep our guests

Working with just an oral agreement is one pretty dumb thing. Averaging one million dollars worth of unpaid labor every year for six years straight? That's just stupid.

Spotify definitely gets the most attention, but I think it pays artists the least among the major streaming services. I use Amazon Unlimited and rarely have an issue finding album releases. I did try a trial of Tidal and while there are some cool things there, including some Hi-Fi masters, it's not worth the cost and their user interface is terrible.
