2024, 08:56:37 PM
So one of my favorite traditions around this time of year is finding out what shows will be performing during NBC's broadcast of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, what shows do we think will be performing this year?
Personally I'm thinking The Outsiders, Tammy Faye, Death Becomes Her, Hell's Kitchen, and Gypsy (and a special appearance by Rachel Zegler and Kit Connor for Romeo + Juliet similar to Gad & Rannells did last year)
