Did anyone see that they played a scene from "Bernadette And The Butcher Of Broadway" at the end of Friday night's Theater Talk on PBS? I'm suprised that Michael Riedel allowed that, seeing as how the play tore him to shreds.

How could Reidel stop it, even if he was preturbed by it? (Which he probably isn't.)

Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium's
Liable to walk upon the scene

It was probably his idea to put it into the show. Either that or Susan Haskins idea.
It was very funny and made me laugh.

Can someone please describe what happened? Which scene did they show, and what did they say about it? I forgot to watch it.

the clip appeared at the end of the show. susan haskins announced it (in a tone indicating that she really liked the show). they showed about 3 minutes from the THEATER CHATTER scene that is a spoof of THEATER TALK ("My co-host susan haskins is dead.... she's just dead") haha!!
I hear that Bernadette and The Butcher Of Broadway has extended again. It's gonna be playing Wed nights at the Duplex in November.
