If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

Each daily vault notes a particular show that opened on that day in x year. Also, some notable birthdays are included as well. Plus, if you click on the playbill for "on this day", you'll get the Playbill with information about that production.

So, no - nothing specific.
I wouldn't bother as your links are identical, it will only bring you to the current day.

Although the link is the same, each day brings in different shows and individuals who also happen to have a birthday on that day. It is a source of some interesting information. There are people who like theatre trivia.

It only shows you the current day. Your link for the 20th and 21st brings one to the exact same info. I think what people were asking was: did you just want them to know this existed (they probably already did) or was there a particular thing that happened referenced on the page you linked (you've made it clear now there wasn't)

No one is interested in your wildly ignorant statements you make on here but that hasn't stopped you from opining. Quit being an a**."
How unsurprising: you're wrong. Actually got two or three compliments in the Lucy thread just the other day, and others on other forums.
No one has voiced an interest in a daily updates on the Playbill site. Somehow, PLPF seems to think people are eager for it. Alerting the community it exists: great. Daily post on it: not so much.

Oh man, I saw Celebration at the 14th St Theatre a long time ago and loved it! It was wonderfully weird. Thanks so much!
Have a Dionne Warwick moment and "walk on by."
HAHA. Right? Imagine clicking on a thread you don't care about and complain that the thread exists.
