No I thought the same exact thing and don’t remember it at The Public either. But I could be forgetting too."
There was a beat about 10 minutes from the end of the show, "oh, btw, here's Catt walking off with her girlfriend" blink and you'd m

I got an email last night (read: a couple of hours after reading the news everywhere else), and then an automated robocall this morning.

WGA strike impact on the 2023 Tonys May 16
2023, 01:18:19 AM
bear88 said: "It seems like there are plenty of unknowns at this point. I don’t know if part of the ‘deal’ is live performances, which doesn’t feel necessary to me but might seem necessary for a network audience. To the extent there is a pre-written script, what happens if any changes are made - even the most minor of tweaks? Wouldn’t that be tricky for Ariana DeBose or anyone else presenting anything? HogansHero, you raised the issue of whether that would make DeBose a writer. What will the atmosphere be like, and will the agreement hold?
I don’t know the answers to any of these questions. It seems like this whole thing is going to be tough to pull off in semi-entertaining form - but perhaps that is the WGA’s point."
SAG-AFTRA covers this on its website:
Can I take WGA writing work while the WGA is on strike?
No. SAG-AFTRA members should not perform the duties covered by WGA contracts. Simply stated, you should not write anything normally written by striking WGA writers.

AFI Life Achievement Award Tribute to Nicole Kidman Postponed
Due to the division in our community at this time, AFI has decided to postpone this year’s event with the goal to offer a celebratory environment worthy of our recipient. A new date will be announced soon.
This was supposed to happen on June 10, which feels like quite the early cancellation.

ErmengardeStopSniveling said: "Drew Barrymore has just withdrawn from hosting the MTV Movie & TV Awards in solidarity with the strike, which is something that I could 100% see DeBose doing. That show will now be hostless and will not have a red carpet or interviews beforehand either.

Update: the MTV Movie & TV Awards will no longer be live on Sunday, it is now a pre-taped ceremony with pre-taped acceptance speeches.

Park in the Theatre District Apr 8
2023, 08:52:50 PM
Dollypop said: "During the administration of Mayor John Lindsay, there was a move to have "vest pocket" parks throughout NYC. These were tiny little parks where workers could bring their lunches to or just relax. Some of them were quite charming with fountains and small waterfalls. All of them had drinking fountains. I recall one in the theater district had a walk-through waterfall. (Sortta like a short tunnel).I guess they all disappeared."
McGraw-Hill Waterfall? It as far as I know still exists.

1776 Tour Jan 9

The Distinctive Baritone said: "Anyway, there was an entire article in the L.A. Times or something about the massive walkouts, boo's, etc. around the country regarding the Oklahoma tour. I can't find it now, but it had interviews with the cast members asking them how they get through the hostility, etc. It was pretty bleak..."
Loud boos. Audible vomiting. How Broadway’s edgy ‘Oklahoma!’ fared across America

Portia: I Chose to Walk Away From Violence Oct 23

Impeach2017 said: "Wouldn't someone with severe asthma have a rescue inhaler on hand at all times?"
Oh, I can weigh in on this! Like PipingHotPiccolo said, everyone's asthma is different, so I can only speak to mine:
I have a daily inhaler, and a rescue inhaler. So knowing what my asthma triggers are, those are the times when I have my rescue inhaler on me. It's not like being allergic to bee stings, I'm not going to suddenly find my

I'M REVOLTING at Atlantic Theater Company Sep 24
2022, 03:42:21 PM
Folks who saw the first preview of I’M REVOLTING: was Portia in the cast?
The role of Denise is now played by Patrice Johnson Chevannes - new title page insert in the Playbill and all - who was still on book during today’s matinee, so I’m curious when this switch happened.

FYI the runtime is three hours, 15 minutes. Including two intermissions. There is more than one person at this 7pm first preview who thought this was a 90 minute play, and that they were going to be going to dinner after.

Fish’s OKLAHOMA! To Be Filmed At The Young Vic For Broadcast Jan 11
2022, 05:10:57 PM
Jordan Catalano said: "I’m curious to check this out and see if they’d made any changes since it was on Broadway a couple years ago.
Link"
According to the Young Vic’s official website, the performances on 23rd – 25th are set to be filmed for broadcast. No more details have been revealed.
Isn't this just the Young Vic's "best seat in your house" digital broadcast? Which they do for every production? It's the last four performances of Oklahoma!, which would follow the way they streamed the last four performances of Hamlet, will be streaming the last four Best of Enemies, etc.

The Public Theater To Now Require Negative Test Along With Vaccination Dec 22

Anakela said: "Still an absolute inconvenience for attending the Under the Radar festival. I'm looking at at least three tests in January just for The Public alone, which also feels unfair to testing facilities...
Besides the fact that I have been waiting since Friday (it's now Tuesday) for my current PCR test, so 72 hours isn't that feasible right now either, but hopefully some of that delay will die down after holiday travels."
