Because it’s staged. It is his home but AD has decorators remove clutter and have spaces visually minimalistic for photos. Even in maximalistic homes, decorators organize and stage the clutter to look tidier than in its lived-in state.
Also of note, these photos are staged and rarely resemble the homes as they are lived in. All appliances are removed from kitchens (everything off the counter - jars, personal decor, etc.), living rooms (coffee tables have staged decor), and bedrooms are also entirely cleared and redecorated. Years ago I assisted a photographer friend who photographed for AD and celebrities and luxury homes took hours to clear up the clutter and restage and redecorated for the photos. Even artwork was sometim

As said upthread, that set was breathtaking.
And this was a shot infinitely better that the Merrily movie. :)"
Director Maria Friedman has addressed this and stated that she deliberately avoided wide shots and full-body choreography. The tight close-ups allowed the camera to capture every subtle muscle twitch, fleeting glance, and tear. It w

I can’t even get the app to load on AppleTV. I hope they do an encore."
An encore is already available on BroadwayHD to stream.
With all due respect, I still don’t know who Bob the Drag Queen is or what they do. I don’t watch nor follow RuPaul’s Drag Race so based on his name I’m assuming they were part of that at some time and may be trying to inject themselves onto the Broadway bubble of sorts. I’m familiar with and admire Jinkx Monsoon, Peppermint, and Bianca Del Rio so yes, I’m aware of their RuPaul’s Drag Race connection so I’d say they definitely crossed
First off, this is in August and not in NYC and not a major big event ON Broadway - its a 3 day festival in Kingston, NY. I think it’s safe to assume this October concert at the Richard Rodgers Theatre will have the full original Broadway cast in attendance as it’s THE official celebration anniversary event for RENT with major Broadway luminaries attending. Red Carpet - the whole sheebang.

Well, when I saw LuPone twice at the Broadway in EVITA back in 1980, she did the entire show with that angry lip curl so I’d say this is somewhat of an homage by Zegler. Kudos.
Definitely confused how any one was able to get tickets if the website was fully crashed.
As clearly stated on their Instagram post (scroll above for my screenshot of it) they imply there was an in-person sale as well which obviously helped them sell out since no one was able to access tickets online due to their server crash.
Yeah, this is definitely going to be a sh*t show. Their servers are nowhere equipped to handle a remotely high level of traffic so of course their site crashed. It’ll be a bit before things get fixed to deal with this unexpected madness. They should have factored this scenario days ago to avoid this unexpected situation.
