I don't see steroid use with this kid at all. He's 5'6 and 135. Those are small stats. I mean, if anything, a little winstrol, but highly doubtful. Perhaps he's just figuring out that he's bipolar or having an incredibly shitty few weeks. These things happen.

What. The. Fuck.

I'll just leave this right here... https://nypost.com/2018/04/21/broadways-box-office-is-wasting-away-in-margaritaville/amp/

It's nearly as rich as people getting bent out of shape over Sierra Boggess doing West Side Story (in concert) in London. SHE'S NOT A LATINA! SHE DOESN'T HAVE THE RIGHT! Oh, for fuck's sake...

Sher did a wonderful job of dusting off another classic and making it feel modern: A cliche, yes, but there's no other way to describe it. Paton as Higgins was revelatory. He created his own character, veering away from the Rex Harrison stamp and- for me- stole the show. Ambrose, while charming, did not bring an ease to Eliza that I would have liked to see. Until 'The Rain in Spain,' she missed a lot of the timing to really bring the laughs out of the script. It feels as if she's the kind of actress who needs ample time to warm up the engine before really delivering a blast-off performance. With a character like Eliza, you've got to grab the audience right away... She didn't. However, her singing voice was unexpectedly enjoyable and the sound board operator did her a great justice with some volume/dynamic sweetening in all the right places. Supporting cast: Just hand the TONY to Butz now. It's so satisfying to watch a true showman sell a song like that. Heading back to see it in early May

I was really hoping they would cycle through some more interesting Dollys. Midler seemed fully over it by the end of her first run, much in the same way she performed during the last few months of her Vegas stint.

Agree completely. I rarely see HS productions stick to the book, the staging or the music as intended. Legally, that's a dicey move if you don't have permission... And that's rarely granted. I really dislike HS theater teachers who butcher a production simply because they think they can. It happens a lot. In this age of internet, it's getting tougher for them to get away with it without having their hand slapped by MTI or Tams-Wit (or whomever is licensing out the show). As for the HS versions of shows, I would agree that some shows just aren't suitable for those audiences. Then again, if you can get the writers to agree to butcher their own show in the name of extra income, I suppose that's their prerogative. It is, after all, their baby. I just find it a bit sad.

And a little pre-show cocktail never hurt anyone

I really dislike 'school editions' of any show. Do it as written or don't do it at all.

If you're around the city and want a full-on cotton candy, feel good show, this one can't be beat. It's basically a musical that was custom built around one showstopper after another, with a paper-thin book to (just barely) get you from hit to hit. It's not Chaucer, but the tap is jaw dropping. This London production went all-out and clearly they spent a ton of money on costumes, sets, etc. It's a really beautiful production. Oh, and Lulu is Dorothy Brock... And not terrible. She gave a good performance. Until we get Stro's Crazy For You back on Broadway, this is a nice place holder.

The Parker is beautiful. Then again, I love Adler's design aesthetic. I still think the best bang for your buck is renting a private home. The inventory of beautifully kept mid-century mod houses in PS is likely the best in the world. My two favorites are the Skyfall house and the Twin Palms estate (aka, the Frank Sinatra house): https://www.luxuryretreats.com/vacation-rentals/united-states/california-desert-cities/palm-springs/skyfall-114593 http://www.sinatrahouse.com/

No, subtitles are necessary for some films and in other parts of the world

Orlando has less than nothing going for it in terms of gay life. It's a barren landscape. As for culture, even less.

If a cop wants to arrest you, he's going to arrest you. Don't fool yourself.

So, you're saying that a chorus member doesn't deserve recognition? On many shows, the chorus are the kids doing the heavy lifting.

I'm going for the opening preview. The cast can't be beat. Got lucky to find a couple of orchestra seats (and perhaps had a little help from Amex)

I've always felt that a TONY for a lead replacement actor would be great. There have been many performances by replacements that were far better than the original cast.

It's a brilliant piece of theatre. Money well spent. Not only is it well-acted, but the stagecraft is unlike anything I've ever seen before. Enjoy!

Start slowly and work your body back into the movement. I can't personally vouch for Crossfit, but would recommend any HIIT workout: https://dailyburn.com/life/fitness/high-intensity-hiit-workout/ As you age, you want to remain not only strong, but flexible. That's something that Crossfit doesn't stress, leading it to be a major cause of new sports-related injuries. https://www.evolvemyfitness.com/blog/2017/8/30/crossfits-injury-rates-revealed I agree to 'Just Do it,' but more importantly do it well, in control and with proper form.

I saw Garfield in London and would agree. It's not a fully-realized gay character. It feels.... Insincere. The British audiences didn't laugh when I saw it. Whether they understood the gravity of the situation or not, it was deathly silent during that scene.

It's a Higgins quote from My Fair Lady

She has strict instructions as to her behavior. She's to keep to two subjects: The weather and everybody's health. 'Fine day' and 'How do you do.'

Lane for an Emmy? Do you mean TONY?

I love it when you talk dirty
