from last year but I missed it LOL www.askamanager.org/2025/08/the-...
I’m a semi-professional theater actor and I once did a show where I had to eat what looked like old moldy food from a garbage dump. It was really just some marshmallows with black food coloring.

The theater world is not too large, so when my director told us her friend was coming, and that her friend just finished her originating role on Broadway as the wife of a certain founding father, we were excited.

So after the show, we meet her. She’s so kind and professional, and everyone does all the normal stage door pleasantries. She says, “Great show! I can’t believe you had to eat that moldy garbage!” Rather than responding like a human, I say, “Thanks! those marshmallows make my poop turn green.”

I guess I threw away my shot.

Still, the name above the title on the marquee counts for an awful lot here. Jordan’s last performance is on Oct. 18, after which Matthew Morrison, who played the role this spring, returns on Oct. 20-Nov. 8. After that comes a decidedly intriguing casting move as Nicholas Christopher, a Tony Award nominee for “Chess,” steps into Darin’s fitted costume on Nov. 10. I might just have to go back for that.

Goodbye, Spelling Bee off-Broadway! I was at the first preview and went back tonight because I won't be able to go to closing. What a fun show full of heart that I'm so glad was easy to access for the past almost-year.

We had ASL interpreters! I watched them occasionally, but when I really wanted to pay attention to the action (esp Bowen), if I moved my head a fraction of an inch, I could block them with the railing. What I saw was hilarious.

So what the heck happened with Houston Broadway Theatre's Falsettos? (From the director's IG story)
On the first day of rehearsal | texted Bill's partner Arthur to let him know I was starting rehearsals for Falsettos. He responded how glad he was and that he knew Bill was there in the room with us, which is why after 6 bewildering days ending in the cancellation of the production, I'm choosing to focus on care and love especially for the folks below, the creative team, and all who were helping to make what I know would have been a beautiful production. Some day I will finally get to direct this gorgeous show which has lived in me for so long.
3rd times the charm.

There was a cute, short curtain speech and Q & A by Dez Duron, and a group photo of all the standbys! And everyone sang "this is where you belong." Chris Tamayo (standby Oliver) had entered with a guitar and said, "Now we do Hadestown!" and I may have accidentally yelp-laughed

Maybe Happy Ending tonight was so special! To celebrate being the longest-running show at the Belasco, we all got an Oliver tote bag that contained a glow stick, along with instructions. This could've gone badly, but didn't! The soft clicking for like 30 seconds was kinda funny, though.

All three agreed that their protest blew up more than they expected. They were surprised and aware that Vice President JD Vance tweeted about MLB's warnings
and politicians such as Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie and state Sen. Scott Wiener have traded jabs on social media and penned letters about it.
"I think it's gotten a lot bigger because of social media and media and because everyone has access to it," Hentges said, asked if he expected the protest to reach the political sphere. "It's become bigger than I anticipated."

“I think that you have the right as a player to believe and say whatever you want,” said the team’s beloved broadcaster Mike Krukow. “But you have to take a broader look at the city you’re playing in. What makes San Francisco so great is the acceptance of others — ethnicities, opinions, cultures — and that extends to the gay community.
“I would just hope they would understand the demographic of San Francisco and respect people for who they are. What you do to your uniform, that has weight to it. You can offend people. And why would you do that?”
Pride is an issue close to Krukow’s heart. His son Wes is gay and is married to his partner, Ted. Wes, a dancer, is currently performing in Phantom of the Opera at the Orpheum.
“I’m so proud of him,” Krukow said. “I’ve seen gay life through my son’s eyes. The culture and the community is so beautiful.”

When it comes time to vote in the midterms, Tarek Hussein plans to support his party where he feels it’s deserved.

“I will vote Republican for the good Republican candidate,” he said.

Mohamed Hussein, said the convention left himself asking questions.

“How can I possibly get behind a party that tells me to leave, that says convert or leave?” he asked. “How do they think that is going to be some kind of winning strategy?”
