I am. Haven’t missed an inauguration day since Jinkx’s first one. What I am hearing inside is to expect a performance that is very serpentine, with venom. Judging by that assessment, I’m going to guess they are going to be very similar to Mason, peppered with Jinkx.

NYC Theater and Broadway Figures found in Epstein Schedules & Correspondences Feb 2
2026, 11:50:05 AM
Yeah, reading these emails actually hurts my brain because I just remember the rise of texting and how Millenials got their whipping for shorthand and yet there is this.
It’s like when I write a well articulated email at work and an upper manager responds like it’s a text message.

MJ The Musical Feb 2
2026, 11:46:32 AM
Colman Domingo is coming for his Oscar nomination. I heard him channeling some of his “Mister” (from TCP) in there and gave me a little chill.
The movie, much like the musical, definitely looks like it’s polished within an inch of its life. It’s really exhausting how much has gone into sanitizing the last 15 years of his life to the point of erasure. At least on Broadway right now, Matté Martinez is giving a very lived-in and emotionally mature perfo

Theatre supplies 'mental health first aiders' for audience members upset by harrowing play Feb 2
2026, 06:22:33 AM
Oftentimes, I usually just tell people that a trigger warning is no different than a movie rating. Movie ratings started adding/being more elaborate with description boxes around 1990 with regard to a film’s content, and there hasn’t been that much of a cultural hackle about it. In the case of trigger warnings, it just takes a mental health-forward framing.

Buena Vista wins the Grammy for MT Album Feb 1

pmensky said: "It strikes me as unusual that the Buena Vista Social Club cast album was Grammy eligible when 8 of its 20 tracks are the same compositions from the already Grammy winning 1997 album, and the remaining 12 tracks are also pre existing Cuban songs with no original material written for the musical, so even understanding that the Grammys judge the recording rather than the composition, it still feels fair to ask how a cast album built entirely from previously released reper

2026, 02:28:02 PM
I’m not sure if the intention of the article is to rage-bait or not, but as a mental health professional, this doesn’t seem entirely beyond the pale. Am I more inclined to tell someone to avoid a show that, given the trigger warnings, may cause an issue? Yeah. But everyone has a different threshold for triggers and also someone who may think that they are in a good space to see the show may not be once the show starts.
To me, this is no different than when they have the sen

Billy Porter on Nicki Minaj Jan 31

BenjaminNicholas2 said: "It's not hate for Porter. It's his unwavering inability to read a room and make better choices.
It's also him, as always, thinking he's an A or B lister when he's not.
He's clinging onto remaining a 'personality' with his antics."
This. He’s lovely one-on-one, but when there’s an audience, he’s “on”, and that’s when he tends to turn into the more exhaust

Telecharge: Exchanging tickets Jan 30
2026, 05:20:42 PM
You would have to talk to a Telecharge agent because this sounds like a unique case that is handled person-by-person.
Technically, you are requesting a refund in that they would have to charge back your card for the ticket amount before you buy at the new price. While the system may be able to handle a 1:1 exchange (like during COVID), it’s also so archaic and creaky that anything else would be a problem.
Call them up and good luck.
Side Note: I’m really upset

I know many theatres in NYC have official landmark status that roadblocks renovations, but the Lortel isn’t one of them. However, I&r

I wanted Domingo for Frank because Lord knows the man has the range, theatrical chops, and now the heightened celebrity. Plus, the man looks DAMN good in his 50s and no doubt he in wearing a pair of fishnets would absolutely become some tenderqueer’s theatre a

This thread is a messssssss.
I will personally attest to the fact that I was not a believer of Ensemble1711 for the same reason Kad cited - the generic username created relatively recently (compared to most of us old guard who’ve been here since dial-up and DSL) at a time where there is a particular user who continues to regenerate with different usernames, creating inane threads and making comments that are meant to inflame as oppose to contribute to the conversation.

THE MONSTERS at City Center (MTC)? Jan 28
2026, 12:00:27 PM
I posted briefly about this in the snowstorm thread. I saw the second preview on Saturday and all I can say is WOW. This is already a contender for one of my favorite plays of the year, if ever.
The play is staged with the audience on 3 sides and there isn’t a bad view at all regardless of your seat. The premise of the play is, essentially, an estranged pair of siblings, separated by time, age, and traumatic life events, reunite at an MMA match and attempt to embark on rediscover
