TLDR means "too long, didn't read" and is a way to "cut to the chase" of the message.

I haven't and won't be seeing this, but I'm seeing several of my theatre-avid friends going via their Instagram and most are saying they enjoyed it/it made them cry (positive). That said, if they have negative thoughts, they don't usually put them out there.

Can't think of any time KC has ever been criticized for a performance....????

The Get Off My Lawn crowd doesn't like it when the anthem is sung too fast, too slowly, or if any vocalist gets "inventive" with it. Kristin sang it slowly and unnecessarily sang a high note. Double whammy on Kristin.

Haven't been, but saw Eden showed up at the last one and sang a bunch of Wicked and Lempicka songs.

Got the vibe that it's a bit like a very focused Con - cosplay and superfans. 

Oh, good, you're back.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish here?

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the biggest hater of them all?"

settled in and ready!

my friend won one of the lottery tickets; she's on cloud nine, and observing her experience from afar is fun.

Is Jasmine the only Best Actor/Actress in a Musical performer NOT performing? I haven't cross-checked. If she's not the only one, this argument is COMPLETELY moot.

If she is the only one, it makes it feel icky and unfair, but again, that's the way the cookie crumbles. Sometimes there are great performances in subpar shows. It's not deeper than that.

In Playbill's article with the Open Letter, they linked to a live, unlocked Google Doc "for any artist who wishes to add their name, and it's just a free-for-all. At a glance, I saw Glee's Rachel Berry and our Civil War President, Abe Lincoln, have also signed the letter.

Seems that could have been moderated a bit better. lolz

Dude can you stop

There's so much other stuff going on press-wise on Opening Nights that I think press teams are just not trying to force press into that moment and letting it be more for the people involved.

Some shows have shared their own content from it. I know Redwood something on Opening Night, and Old Friends just shared theirs today: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIubZdNNlEM/

Since this info has still not made it into this thread:

The duet (being on stage with them for it, meeting them etc) was auctioned for the BC/EFA red bucket fundraising campaign, and they raised $16,000.

Since your separating by sex, where's your list of female suggestions?

Saw this tonight and looooooooooooved it!

I don't know the band/songs, but I love Cuban and Latin American music and while I only know basic Spanish, I didn't feel I needed to understand every lyric to understand the songs.

This is picking up steam on theatre twitter (general disdain).

Suspect even more laughter will be present at future shows...

Death Becomes Her is fiiiiinally up!

By definition (and law) a lottery must be random and cannot be dependent upon such a thing.
