The Inheritance Part 1. I have a ticket for Company on April 18, but I'm sure any decisions to re-open will be handled on a day-by-day basis. (Godspell reference not intentional)

The Inheritance or Slave Play?

So I saw Part 1 yesterday. For the first 15 minutes or so, I saw "another bunch of bitchy queens" trading zingers. It took me awhile to get into it. I DO agree with many of you that the play tries to be very self-important, and that some scenes are amazing, and the end of Part 1 is wonderful. The theater was filled with guys like myself "of a certain age" who lived - survived - from the beginnings of the AIDS crisis through today. I DID have to sleep on it, as t

When I was a kid, seeing her on TV game shows and commercials, I thought she epitomized all that is "New York" I still do. RIP.

I just took a tour at Pace last month with my niece who desires to attend next fall in the stage mgmt/costume design area. What impressed me the most is that a great percentage of the faculty are currently active in Broadway theater, and of course, the proximity to Braodway itself is a plus.

What was your first time in New York City like?

My grandmother took me in 1971 on a bus for the day from central PA. I was 13. We were great travelling buddies and planned our day in advance...A Gray Line tour which took us to Chinatown and the Statue of Liberty, saw Rockefeller Center and St. Patrick's Cathedral, had dinner at Mamma Leone's, and saw my first Broadway show--Fiddler On The Roof--at the Broadway Theater. A fun filled 12 hours. Thanks Gram.

I remember seeing a TV special on PBS back in the early 70s--around Thanksgiving---of the Godpsell cast singing songs from the show--at Plymouth Rock--and I believe they were dressed as pilgrims. I'd love to see it again..any help?
