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.

Broadway Abridged Live: Spring Awakening

It's up! Wow, this one was tons of fun to do. My favorite Radio Version of an Abridged script yet. The bonus is that Ron picked up the guitar after the recording and "scored" it... and if you listen closely at about 42:00 in, he breaks into "I am barely breathing".

Check it out at Broadway Bullet.

Thanks again to Michael Gilboe, Jake Friedman, Rachel Pincus, and Ron Varod !

The narrator calls Wendla "whiny-haired girl" at the very end. I thought that was kind of funny.

Eh, I kind of liked it when the three leads were referred to by their actors' names, but it is very nice, particularly the off key wailing of the Les Miz Epilogue.And I loved the addendum to the bit about differentiating between the adult characters.
