Good luck, everyone!


"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.

It is a far, far better thing I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest I go to, than I have ever known.

True, they don't tell you where they are located? But I'm sure it would be a blast. I don't think I have any "black tie" clothes, ha.

that would be totally sweet. and if I was getting Tony tickets for $40, I don't think I'd care where they were. are they over $100 cheaper than the cheapest tickets?

I wonder how many students have access to black tie wear on three hours notice.

frogs_fan, the lotto is on Thursday, not Sunday. so they have several days to find something.

If they're only going to let 200 people total put their names in the lotto on Thursday morning then I'd actually place money on people lining up starting Wed night sometime.

I'm so tempted to go, but I would not get there Wednesday night just to rush the Tonys. I'm not that eager... But what fun it would be to attend!

I'd much rather see everyone camping out in their black tie gear anyway.

"I wonder how many students have access to black tie wear on three hours notice."

The lotto is Thursday. Three days before the Tony Awards.


EDIT: givesmevoice beat me to it!

I literally screamed when I heard about this. I'm wondering if I should be there on Wednesday night. I probably will be just in case.

Anybody want to vote for rush for the downsized? We can't afford $200 for a ticket either.

This is very inviting but I can just imagine the chaos.
