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.

CONTEST: Win a free copy of the "Broadway Abridged Live" CD!

Like everybody else, I've decided to celebrate Christmas without waiting for this holiday to end first. So as your gift, I'll be giving away two iTunes copies of the new BROADWAY ABRIDGED LIVE VOLUME 1: EVEN MORE MUSICALS album, which comes out tomorrow on Amazon and iTunes.

How do you win? Simple. In 125 characters or less, abridge any Broadway Show. You can enter in one of two ways: tweet it with a #bwayabridged tag (still under 140 characters) or e-mail it to gil [at] broadwayabridged.com with subjectline CONTEST. Contest ends December 1st, one week from tomorrow.

BROADWAY ABRIDGED LIVE VOLUME 1: EVEN MORE MUSICALS features ~10 minute versions of Wicked, West Side Story, Spring Awakening, Les Miserables, Little Mermaid and A Chorus Line. Put it on your ipod, and act like a theater jerk in your car or subway platform!

Can you only enter once, or are multiple entries acceptable?

Multiple entries without going crazy. Let's say... 3. No more than 3.
