Why is this sad? Theater people have lives and go do things in the city. You know they're just like other people, right? Would an actor going to a Daily Show taping be sad?
"Does she have anything going for her?" Did you mean that the way you wrote it or did you mean to ask if she has any upcoming projects and you just aren't the most eloquent writer? Cause that would be, well, kind of sad.
If the audience could do better, they'd be up here on stage and I'd be out there watching them. - Ethel Merman
