Nope. I noticed it but it really didn't seem ridiculous. Happens everyday.

Just watched it and overall really enjoyed it.
I saw it on Broadway. I will say that I am glad that they retained the choreography from the stage version. I know some people were not crazy about it. I actually first saw it at a press preview and was like "well, ok". After realizing that this takes place in a small rural town it made sense. I remember moving west and people not knowing the latest music or dances. That is what I think he was going for so I really enjoyed t

I can easily see that happening with me. I have already planned to watch it again.

Bill Snibson said: "Ummmm. I loved the Diana song! Maybe i’ve just been deprived for too long but girl can sing and she sold me a ticket."
Enjoyed her also. The lyrics to the song caught my attention. Especially the line about Charles stepping aside and letting William reign. It made me wonder what happens in the show to prompt that song lyric. Looking forward to seeing it. I was planning to see it the week after the shutdown.

Didn't he mention earlier in the show that they were planning to bring it to Broadway? Maybe they are hoping it still comes.

I got an announcement/ad that Jersey Boys tickets are now on sale for performances starting May 31st 20201 through early January 2022. It popped up right after they finished their opening number.

He is a popular country singer. I like him. A really nice surprise to see him. I saw an interview with him where he expressed his love for Broadway. And he's cute to boot!

Yeah, a bit of a let down. I mean she could have at least performed a song from her home or something like that.

Faucci Says By Beginning of April, Everyone Could Get Vaccine Dec 8

Well employers kind of can't mandate someone get a vaccine for an airborne illness. It's going to be just like any other hospital if someone doesn't get the flu shot. You're just going to be required to wear a mask which we're all doing anyway, but in work settings you'll be doing so

Metropolitan Opera to Lock Out Stagehands as Contract Talks Stall Dec 8

Part of the contract is that they would get part of it back after ticket sales picked up and members came back.
Agreed isjustme, I think this was to be expected. Didn't the symphony accept a contract something like this one?

Sutton Ross said: "Trump administration officials passed when Pfizer offered in late summer to sell the U.S. government additional doses of its Covid-19 vaccine, according to people familiar with the matter. Now Pfizer may not be able provide more of its vaccine to the United States until next June because of its commitments to other countries, they said.
So, there's that."
Ok, that was just too weird. David Muir was was speaking those exact w

I heard a doctor say today that he expects there will also be those "you first" people who will wait until a friend of family member gets it and waits to see if they have a bad reaction before they make a decision.

I didn't know until this afternoon that Madelen Mills was a replacement in "School of Rock" on Broadway. She did an interview on What You Need to Know earlier today. They said she has done Broadway so looked her up.

This should not be like a flu shot. They are not seeing a seasonal mutation the way we do with the flu.
It might require a booster at some point, but it should not be yearly shot."
What I have been hearing is that they are not sure right now about a mutation. And they aren'

Will it even stop for the next few years? I suspect that if all goes well with these vaccines, there will be those who get it and are fine and those who don
