Thematically it's about how authority figures, peers and social media can imprint who you are onto you before you discover yourself. I've never seen what is essentially a gross out faux documentary with an underlying serious theme before. But before we get all artsy phartzy it's funny as hell as we try to learn whether Dylan painted the dicks on the teachers cars. And if not Dylan who? And did Alex get the hand job or not? And, and, and...

This is a great show that I can't convince any of my friends to watch. Kevin - when the movie Columbus is available make sure to see it.

Sounds like it will share the fate of On Your Feet (Gloria Estefan) and Motown, The Musical. A couple of years on Broadway and tour like hell for the next 20. They've got a couple of months to work on the book. The Temptations musical was just in San Francisco and may be on it's way as well. Escape From Margaritaville opens in the spring. (Jimmy Buffet) Four hits so far this fall 1) The Band's Visit 2) Once On This Island 3) SpongeBob SquarePants The Musical and 4) The Children. Frozen and Harry Potter in the spring - it's going to be one helluva year.

Saw the National Theater's Follies in a movie theater today as part of the National Theater Live series. It's a great production of a show I like more and more each time I see it. Well worth catching. http://ntlive.nationaltheatre.org.uk/productions/63102-follies

Lucas Hedges is in both Three Billboards and Lady Bird. He also was the son who lost his father in last years Manchester By The Sea. I saw The Disaster Artist last week and it's a very well done fun ride. James Franco will probably get a Best Actor nod.

You will not be disappointed.

So you do come to the East side...hmmmm.

Not germane but - I have a friend who was an original investor in this show, the royalty checks continue to pour in.

A Talkin' Broadway review about the production in La Jolla. https://www.talkinbroadway.com/page/regional/sandiego/sd213.html

+1 - a very good production of this play, well worth a visit.

Just binge watched this new series on Netflix and really enjoyed it. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/American_Vandal/s01 It's a humorous faux documentary trying to get to the bottom of who painted the dicks on the cars of 27 teachers.

Enjoy (I hope) The only one of yours I haven't seen is Buffalo 66 so I'm adding that.

1) Dogtooth 2) 4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days 3) Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring 4) The White Ribbon 5) La Strada

And then again Love & Kisses needs to be remembered as well.

Souvenirs by Voyage is one of the best.

And the winner is You Make Me Feel by Air.

I marched in the first NYC Gay Pride Parade in 1970 and, happily, saw Bette Midler perform in Washington Square after the third. Haven't done much lately. In 1970 I was working in a very gay friendly business and knew there would be no repercussions so I figured, if not me, who?

If biTopKris is advertising he would make a wonderful choice.

I believe Bette Midler's contract is up in January.

http://www.talkinbroadway.com/allthatchat_new/d.php?id=2378776 This show was done at the Atlantic this past year and has incredible buzz. Could very well be the next "hard ticket" on Broadway.

Of course how can any of us forget Bobby Marchan's There's Something On Your Mind Part 2 Listen to the end, it's worth it.

I saw Come From Away yesterday and it looks to me like another big hit is on the way. Believe it opens 3/12. It's the story of the people of Gander, Newfoundland who found themselves with 38 planes of stranded passengers on September 11. It's a musical and I believe will be a hard ticket after it opens. It's the feel good about humanity story we all need right now.

A bit out of left field but the soundtrack to Cirque du Soleil's Saltimbanco works wonders.

Back in the 70's I worked in a 5 star very exclusive hotel so I've met many: 1) Paul Newman 2) Steve McQueen 3) Julia Child 4) Mick Jagger 5) Warren Beatty, etc. etc. etc.
