It took five hours on hold for me to get a refund on Two Strangers tickets, so (justifiably) angry performers aren’t the only people staying home
Lot of OPEN anger from Bway actors today about shows going on. Fascinating to observe. Complaining out loud was inconceivable pre-Covid.

How do Democrats frame their arguments? For this piece, we interviewed a man who covered up a murder.
Trump is unpopular, but how do Democrats frame their arguments for a comeback?
Two veteran politicos, Rahm Emanuel and Gretchen Whitmer, have thoughts
In NPR video interviews. Worth watching on a snowy day.

A Bud Light-style boycott of a Broadway musical is not going to work. The demographic going to see Six the musical is going to show up more to see Dylan Mulvaney in response to transphobic hate, not less. Signed, someone who has seen Six on Broadway twice and has never drank a Bud Light

Thanks MZS for banging the drum on this one! My mom was shocked there was no Oscar buzz for Bill Skarsgard
Please see Gus van Sant's Dead Man's Wire, a hostage film & social tapestry that is "unabashedly inspired by the best crime dramas from the 1970s, including Dog Day Afternoon,The Sugarland Express, Network and Badlands, and can stand proudly alongside any of them." www.rogerebert.com/reviews/dead...
Dead Man's Wire review: Gus Van Sant tackles true-crime intrigue
A thoughtful, bleakly funny 1970s drama that speaks to the current moment, and is equal to the many classics that inspired it.

Just purely in terms of phrasing, “it was reportable because of the reporting and the reporters” is an embarrassingly inept explanation, like something Ron Burgundy would yell.

Les Miz and Hello Dolly are the two I’ve seen the most. The fact I saw them both with my beloved grandpa also impacts the memory significantly
Is the first musical that you like always your favorite?
I think Grease is still my favorite.
