Worth noting that
@StrangeLoopBway
broke the Lyceum Theatre house record for a musical this past week, previously set by BE MORE CHILL in 2019.
Onward and upward to greatness it continues.
Sarah Paulson in the audience of Jessica Lange’s MOTHER PLAY tonight is undoubtedly the first shots fired in the Tony race for Leading Actress In A Play

It does actually make quite a bit of sense. I heard from a friend today that apparently they are also getting a lot of vaccines out to Fire Island as well to protect the affluent. He likened it to the early AIDS crisis, which I see the parallel.
@MeghanMcCain
Doubt this is actually genuine and instead of a red meat Hail Mary. The Trumps only seem to promote values that they would consider to be politically expedient to them.
Also curious how being pro-life doesn’t carry over to this administration's piss-poor handling of COVID-19

@levarburton
He was really not up to the task. His excitement very much got in the way of his handling of the gameplay.
I’m glad Mayim Bialik will get this at least partially because she was probably the best of the non-show affiliated guest hosts.
Fun Fact:

is currently tied with
@RickFox
(Season 11) as the most successful basketball player in

history (making the Top 6) and the FIRST to qualify for a semi-finals in 30 seasons.

A cousin of mine who worked at a restaurant in The Grove and a close friend who worked at a Beverly Hills bar both strongly confirm that he is a sweetheart and a very generous tipper.
Part of why he loves doing TPIR is because he can just give away great stuff to regular people
Special matinee performance of

“PRIMA FACIE” starring
@danielle999
. With this, I have now completed the ENTIRE 2022-23 Broadway Season. (I’ll be back to see Jodie Comer next week).
Thank you to everyone who made my lifelong dream of winning

possible.

I’m a frequent user of these boards but this actually makes me sick. Mental health days could actually preserve the mind in the long term if taken as needed. (I’m a psych nurse, I should know.) I love that you are an advocate for your and others mental health. Bless you.
So, he gave one to James, James had given one to Sam, and now Sam was giving one to me! Now that I know I think it's a nice tradition. But now I guess at some point I'll have to figure out how one makes a customized championship belt!

Merle Oberon, of Eurasian/Sri Lankan (Ceylon) descent, was nominated in 1935 for “The Dark Angel”, but she went out of her way to obfuscate her parentage and said she was born in Australia
Tonight is kind of a major milestone for me:
1) To the shock of many you, out of HUNDREDS of shows I’ve seen, this is my first time seeing
@wicked_musical
2) As of tonight, and just 22 days shy of my 30th Birthday, I have now seen a show in ALL 41 BROADWAY THEATRES! 🎉
lion king on broadway review: 1pm sunday matinee full of kids absolutely losing their minds, puppets fucking rule, solid performances, one kid in the theater got so scared during Be Prepared that they were still audibly crying in the next scene, A+ would lion king again
@GrossmanMax
Based on her current résumé, though, they will need to build a way to include baked goods into the roles
Oh, I secretly want her and Raul Esparza to take over the leads in Sweeney Todd in January
@AyannaPrescod
(My last one)
The black-centered plays and playwrights on Broadway this past season deserves SO much better. I would kill to see Chicken & Biscuits, Thoughts of a Colored Man, and ESPECIALLY For Colored Girls… still running
Forgot to mention last night how
@olreid
, Tracy Letts, Austin Pendleton, and Jessie Mueller are putting in the WORK to make
@minutesbway
a biting and searing look at the dark underbelly of rewriting the past to make a comfortable present and future. Bravo!

@SebArcelus
That’s funny because I was walking next to someone earlier this afternoon by P.A I later realized to be
@SebArcelus
- BUT I COULDN’T REMEMBER HIS NAME and all my brain could muster was “Mr J. Block”
I JUST MET JENNIFER COOLIDGE AT “CABARET” AND NOBODY CAN TELL ME SHIIIIIIITTTTT!!!! (Again, my face is masking a total internal loss of chill)

Ben Platt is reopening the world famous Palace Theatre on Broadway…the same one that Judy, Liza, and the SpongeBob musical all played…with a three-week residency 🥴
This is for a Saturday NIGHT. Clearly, the sales are going GREAT
Honestly, of the three so far, Jason’s is the only one that felt like a true freestyle and reflected his growth as a dancer…because the man DIDN’T STOP MOVING.
The others seemed to swerve actual dance as much as they possibly could.

@AlmostFamousBwy
was FANTASTIC. I definitely have to go back! Oh, and
@justcaseylikes
and Solea Pfeiffer are STARS!
In lieu of a cast recording, I would pay
@SimardJennifer
to record a voicemail that says either “Do you always ask a lot of questions or just collect trivia like some old game show host?” or “I’M NOT! I’M JUST SMELLING IT!”
I just met
@HillaryClinton
at
@potusbway
and I’m shaking and crying - She thanked me for all my hard work as a nurse during the pandemic. WHAT IS MY LIFE?!?!
I hope she’s enjoying the play.
Oscar Isaac and
@rachelbrosnahan
DID. THAT. Two world-weary, fully lived-in performances that made a 60 year old play feel fresh of the page. Go see
@thesignonbway
or live in regret…
I know there is literally no room in the theatre, but part of me wishes
@WhosTommyShow
had actual pinball machines in the lobby to play during intermission.
@brosninja
I actually was looking into trying to get an appointment myself, because
@NJDeptofHealth
isn’t even paying this any attention and there is a LARGE crossover between NY and NJ’s queer communities, especially in summer
Please pray for your theatre gay friends today because the sheer power of
@StephanieJBlock
playing both Norma Desmond AND The Baker’s Wife in the SAME SEASON has us shook to our very cores.

It was comical and subversive in 2011 - but has not aged that well at all. Also, it’s main competition that year was “The Scottsboro Boys” (which had long since closed and ended up 0 for 12 that night)
