"But Broderick has no excuse to be shouting out "Line?" in a performance."

Actually, he has a very good excuse. According to the article, the play "has been undergoing rewrites amid preview performances."

If she was using one during DEUCE, it didn't help enough - and if she wasn't, she should have.

"Kelsy Grammar did MACBETH? Ugg. Who's awful idea was that?"

Same director as CARRIE, Terry Hands, in his triumphant Broadway return.

If you thought CARRIE was unintentionally scary and awful...

I saw Kelsey Grammar's MACBETH. I was sitting up close, too. I don't remember any teleprompters. I DO remember a dreadful production.

Dollypop is BACK!

We had a seance, did you miss it, love?

TheatreFan4 and I recited the monologue preceding "Before The Parade Passes By" JUST for you (and Ephram).

Welcome back!

Everything on stage is an illusion anyway, what does it matter if a few other things go on behind the scenes to help the performance along? As long as it isn't obvious to the audience, which clearly it wasn't, all it does is help the show run smoothly.

Thanks for missing me! I was off in Europe, enjoying the cheap airfares, the lack of crowds and the balmy weather.

Had a great time, too!
