This was more a discussion of the current West End and incoming Broadway production. The ministry series- while not terrible by any means- is very different from seeing it live. I thought that Pacino did a fair amount of Pacino-esque mugging in his role, but Thompson and Streep just nailed it.
I can't imagine as an actor trying to climb that mountain, live, every night. I have so much respect for those who can do it.
I get that The Skivvies are selling the skin, but in seeing their stuff a few times in NYC, the shows always feel... Meh.
If I want go-go boys, I don't want to go to 54 Below

Truly forgettable music. Very little set, mostly screens and projections.
Sadly (or bitterly, even), if I was ever that thin in my teens and early 20s, I'd have been able to rock a mean pair of Diesel jeans.
Compliment taken, but the celeb I'm compared to on a very, very regular basis is Macklemore...

She's one of the most underrated actors out there: Comedy, drama, television, stage. She can do it all.
Fine, fine.

You have every right, but my story comes direct from a pal who was in the cast of the Bill Irwin/Kathleen Turner Virginia Woolf
This 2005 New Yorker article gives a similar view of what was described to me:

These are the fascinating things we uncover when we travel. It's why I love seeing the world: There's so much more out there than what we're accustomed to in the States.
