I just watched an Actors on Actors episode between Mescal and Ariana Grande.  A nice convo.  He seems like a humble, very self-aware, and centered individual.

God's Creatures is good. Emily Watson as his suffering mother. Normal People too, of course.

Enjoy the play.

During pandemic October 2020, Paul Mescal, alongside Lucas Hedges and Grace Van Patten, did a livestream of Kenneth Lonergan's play "This is Our Youth."  Not sure if there's a full recording available for viewing but there are snippets out there.

Not sure when it happened, but BAM added three Wednesday matinees (3/19, 3/26, and 4/2). Decent availability, but tickets are at the new higher prices.

EDIT: There's also an added Thursday matinee (3/13), which actually has a balcony seat available (as of 12/29).

I haven't been out to BAM in a while. I'm seeing a 3pm Sunday matinee of STREETCAR. About how long does it take to get back to the Times Square area by subway from that part of Brooklyn? I'd like to see a Sunday evening show, if possible. Most productions of STREETCAR that I've seen are around 3 hours long. The BAM website lists the running time here as 2:45. Is it possible to get back to midtown with enough time for a 7pm show?


"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

There are a lot of subway options from BAM to Times Square. So even though you are going on a Sunday when trains run less frequently and there is often track work on weekends that ends up complicating subway travel, the trip is very unlikely to be more than an hour.

Good for them!  I'm glad I ended up joining BAM....which really worked in my favor price wise (both by getting to obtain my tix sooner and rec'd a discount for being a member)   Still payed less than I was expecting.

 

Interesting that Othello with HUGE star power has not met with the same results, while not identical (similar length of run, only 200 seat [ish] difference, both costly) they have plenty of seats left  especiall after the first month.   And while I'm sure Shakespeare is scary to some, I would thing Gyllenhaal and Washington's names were easily overcome that.   I'm sure that come performance time, the show will, inded, end up selling out - just an interesting comparison.
