Broadway is Expensive. Times Square is a pain to walk through. Intermission isn't enough time to scarf down that $12 Watered-Down-Mojito which you can't bring to your seat. And that jerk in front of you is going to give a standing ovation to a reading of the telephone book. Why bother? We give you each of your (not so)
favorite Broadway shows, ten minutes at a time.

How to be shitty at marketing...

"This new Broadway musical tells the tale of a young, black bohemian on a journey of escape and exploration who leaves the confines of his middle-class, church-reared youth in South-Central L.A. The further he travels, the more he discovers that the journey within is the one that counts."

- Marketing blurb for Passing Strange

I don't believe for a minute that this acclaimed off-Broadway musical could be as bad as they're trying to make me believe it is.

"...The further he travels, the more he discovers that the journey within is the one that counts."I just saw a "Power Puffs" cartoon where the girls learned the same lesson in the end. :pNick

I'm going to write a song called "The Journey within is the one that counts."
