I feel bad for them. Seems like Raul's microphone on his laptop or tablet/phone device was muted since we obviously couldn't hear him but who knows. Hopefully they'll fix this soon!

Since it's so close to 9pm I'll just watch the series finale of Homeland and watch Mandy Patinkin!

Happy belated birthday Stephen Sondheim!

He managed to get some of the biggest theater performers sitting in front of a laptop just wondering WTF.

YIKES, Broadway.com really f*cked this up. Now a 10pm start?

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Gorlois said: "Is it actually live? I assumed Raul’s segments would be but everybody else would be pre-recorded...?"

Lin-Manuel tweeted something along the lines of "Raul, why didn't you prerecord like the rest of us?" which leads me to believe you're correct. I thought this was going to be akin to the Disney on Broadway concert for BC/EFA, where the recorded performance was woven in with Ryan McCartan's live hosting and interviews with some of the participants. Who knows, though.

"Video unavailable. This video has been removed by the uploader."

Sooooo... I'm guessing that all performances were to be like Schwartz' "All Things Bright and Beautiful" (which was really lovely), in that all performances were to be streamed from the individual performers' homes?

So calling it quits is pretty much minimal unplugging/packing up lighting and cords from performers' homes?

It’s wrong and disrespectful in many ways, but it must also be a crushing disappointment for ASTEP. They had to be expecting some serious donations.
