An hour ago, Dave Malloy posted a vague tweet about a show at 7pm. Does anyone know what this is? I'm assuming it'll be something streamed in response to the coronavirus and the theatre shutdown.

Oooh, no idea, but thank you for the heads up! 

Somewhat related, but Brittain Ashford did a livestream a few nights ago where she played some songs and talked to followers. It was really soothing.

That was a really lovely walk down memory lane. Obviously it can't live up to the live performance (I was lucky enough to see the Seattle production), but I really, *really* appreciate Dave releasing it right now. I've listened to the cast recording constantly, but I had forgotten so many of the little things the cast did. 

Bravo.

not directly related to this video of Ghost Quartet but thought this would be a good place to ask: anyone know why Dave Malloy has left twitter?

I don't want to make any assumptions, but it seems to me that the themes in "Octet" came from a very personal place. I imagine he struggles with social media addiction and anxiety. And Twitter is one of the worst places to be when dealing with those things.
