I see a Broadway show and condense it into abridged script form; you get to add another notch to your list of shows you have an opinion of but have never seen.

Dave Itzkoff and Erik Piepenburg are Assholes

Update: Gil
Wednesday, June 24, 2009
Link to this post.

Piepenburg is an asshole for running his mouth about how Lupone should grin and bear it when theatergoers are being assholes.

Itzkoff is an asshole for avoiding the fact that 3 out of 4 NYTimes.com commenters agreed with Lupone about Piebenburg being an asshole.

Assholes.

[By the way, it was a concert. This wasn't stopping a musical during a pivotal scene. She stopped her own concert! Who cares?]

Oscar-winning songwriter Joseph Brooks indicted on sex assault charges

Yeah, that Joseph Brooks. The one who wrote In My Life.
  • "accused of luring the aspiring models and actresses to Brooks' E. 63rd St. apartment with promises of parts in his next movie. "
  • "82 counts of sex-related charges, including rape"
  • "The women, ages 18 to 30, were "incapacitated" by the drinks, prosecutors said. Toxicology tests have been inconclusive."
Wow.

Blithe Spirit: Tweeted

Update: Gil

Link to this post.

Recently, a number of shows have joined twitter as a marketing tool. They occasionally tweet from backstage, or answer fan questions, or they even let the audience tweet at the show! Because they know that you'll look at it and say, "OMG I Twitter! So I should see this play!"

Now that I'm using @BwayAbridged to let people know of script updates on twitter, I felt bad that Blithe Spirit hasn't jumped on the tweetwagon. So I did for them...

I'd like to apologize to anybody who sent me e-mail via my BroadwayAbridged address since late March. Apparently when my webhost accidentally deleted my settings, I FAILed on setting up my BroadwayAbridged forwarding. Surry! I'll be going through these to try to get back to everybody...
