I regret not seeing... Nov 8
2020, 09:11:07 PM
I regret not seeing... a variety of shows.
As often as I go to NYC, I’ve only seen a handful of different shows. I often repeat shows because 1. I enjoyed it the first time enough to see it a second, third, or more times, and 2. I don’t want to waste money for a show I might not like (plus the $100 round trip train fare hurts more especially if I disliked the show).
That said, at the end of 2019 (say Oct - Dec), I was able to get to NYC 8 times to see 9 shows. 4 of those 9 w

I had planned to see Little Shop last year with Groff but for some reason didn’t make it. Most likely a train issue. I did see Little Shop this Feb with Gideon Glick who was phenomenal, as was the entire production. I do regret not seeing Groff though.

Waitress Jar Pie Recipes Sep 27
2020, 02:02:24 AM
Not a recipe, but I found the baker who made the Waitress pie jars. She does have a shop but nothing listed (could be just because of Covid19 but who knows). She has the pie in a jar and dessert in a jar tabs too. And a few recipes listed too.

I don’t either. But, Beanie Feldstein and Jonah Hill are siblings. And Beanie and Ben Platt are best friends from school age years. She didn’t just meet the two last week and is now famous. She very well could be in a positio

Who Have You Gotten Stuff Back From? Sep 4

AndreyIsntHere said: "Has anyone heard back from Anaïs Mitchell and/or Rachel Chavkin? I sent them letters, both addressed to the Kerr, about a month after the Tonys...I wouldn't expect a response this soon anyway, especially considering that Anaïs has been on tour/vacation outside the US...I'm mostly worried that the letters might've gotten lost somewhere due to the fact that I sent them by the time they stopped frequenting the theatre."

What is your Most loved Episode from any TV show Aug 29
2020, 08:04:14 PM
The Vampire Diaries - specifically 4x15 to 4x21 when Elena turns off her emotions. For some reason these episodes are my favorite parts of the series. There’s a few other standalone episodes I do love but I don’t remember the numbers.
I’ve been watching a lot of Modern Family. No specific episode but every episode I have seen I’ve loved.
I also have been watching a lot of NatGeo and Smithsonian channel shows.

Thoughts on Theater 5 months into The Shutdown Aug 29
2020, 07:59:23 PM
I haven’t necessarily been missing theatre but I have been missing the alone time when I take the train to NYC. Between grad school and my job, I’m constantly busy and have almost no time to myself. When I take the train to NYC, I’m alone and have time to relax, reflect, and enjoy the few hours to myself before coming back to reality.
I did go through a phase that I listened to the Little Shop of Horrors recording over and over and over but stopped because I was sad I couldn’t go to NY

Probably the best final episode I’ve ever seen of a series. Parenthood is a very close second. Maybe I just like Peter Krause shows...?

2020, 02:31:34 AM
The virus itself would not stop me from seeing a Broadway show if Broadway reopened tomorrow. What IS stopping me is the reported rising crime rates. It is concerning and often I ask myself is going to NYC worth the risk?
I could be very wrong on this but I do not think the news media is properly reporting on the rising crime rates. I’m not from NYC so I’m relying on whatever the national news stations report on. And from what I’m seeing is that they are just reporting a very broad sta

How much will you be willing to spend on theatre post closure Jun 29
2020, 07:27:48 PM
I probably will spend more money on a good orchestra seat and see a show once. Not in the premium section but maybe a few rows back from there.

Esther2 said: "First show on Broadway was Chicago in March 1976 from the first row of the mezzanine (I believe the tickets cost $15.50)."
That’s what I paid for Chicago in 2010! But was a significantly discounted bus trip and show through my college. If I paid full price, it would have been closer to $200 for the bus and show ticket.

My first Broadway show was Chicago in 2010. I hated it. To this day I still have trouble explaining why I hated it so much.

According to the Junior’s website, the Shubert Alley/45th St location opened in 2006. It doesn’t provide an opening date. Just the year. Beauty and the Beast closed July 2007.

Tickets Refunds Apr 20
2020, 07:55:09 AM
My refund for American Buffalo posted to my account yesterday. This was for 6/7 performance and was cancelled with the most recent announcement. I do plan on purchasing another ticket but I’m waiting to see their plans for this show (cancel, move to fall, short run this summer).

Tickets only on sale for American Buffalo thru mid-July when it was supposed to end. Wonder if they'll postpone or just dump it."
I had the option to exchange instead of refund. But idk if it will even open. If it does and doesn’t extend, it will only be a 6 week run. I opted for a refund and I’ll buy a new ticket when it does open.
