I only have about 500 tracks downloaded, and listen to many of the OBCR albums repeatedly even after I’ve seen the show. I started listening to DEAR EVAN HANSEN this morning. Can’t wait for my 2019/2020 season to get closer so I can start listening to a dozen more OBCR. There’s always something new and wonderful to discover for every new show I see.

I was thinking the same. what does a couple of chairs cost? :-p

Have you seen the show in Toronto?

I loved the simplicity of the show’s set and how they kept rearranging the same tables and chairs to represent everything from a bar to an airplane. 

I can still hear the reactions of the audience to some of the key sad moments. I listened to the OBCR last night with the show still fresh in my head as I was getting ready for bed and smiled, got teary eyed, and laughed all over again.

But at the same time, what is a couch and a few screens for other shows when you compare that to chairs
