I was also there last night and Andy was amazing. Comfortable as if he'd always been there doing that role.

Dear averagebwaynut, I am anything but naive when it comes to being a Shomer Shabbos Actor (SAG-AFTRA/AEA Card holder here) living in a non Shomer Shabbos world. The challenges are great and sometimes difficult to understand.
Friday night is indeed THE night for Entertainment for Americans and yes, sadly there are Jews among those who go out. I still think that this could be pulled off. I do realize that mounting a show on Broadway is a multimillion dollar undertaking these days and ye

True and sad that Jewish performers do not all observe Shabbos. What a wonderful world it would be if everyone always did what they could be doing.
The point I was making is that the Rabbis wouldn't allow the 'sale of the show' that I spoke about IF it would cause another Jew to NOT keep Shabbos.

One day, it will happen. T

Since the producers and the director are Observant Jews, this would have been a great opportunity. If it opened on a Sunday you'd have a full week before taking Shabbos off.

While that was the original intent, to be the first Broadway show to not to perform on Shabbos & Yom Tov, the powers that be have somehow justified letting it go on like any other show. Not sure how they pulled that off. What a wasted opportunity. History and precedent could have been made.

Perhaps if I knew what you plan to use it for, the context, it might be easier to make a suggestion.

People, chill out.
There is nothing wrong with promoting something for a good cause. I am sure you all delete these type of emails without even reading them.
What comes to mind is that you HAVE to click and open a message board thread.
If the subject doesn't interest you, simply pass it by!
No reason to put more hate in the world!
