For Your Theatrical Viewing Pleasure...


For all you theatre-starved folks out there in the world, allow me to say...the world of Live Theatre has got your back!  A number of Companies from around the world have begun posting links to live and recorded streams of some of their very best work, including Disney, England's National Theatre and Andrew Lloyd Webber's personal catalog.

I'll be posting on a reasonably frequent basis how to get to some of these online viewing opportunities.  If you're in one of my classes, then viewing theatre will be an available learning opportunity (as I mentioned in the class announcements earlier this week); if you're not in one of my classes (but why wouldn't you be...really?), then consider these as some interesting options to see some live theatre...but not really live.  Anyway...

Here are a few links for this week:

National Theatre Live - This Week: Treasure Island (April 16-22)

The Shows Must Go On!/Lloyd Webber - This Week: The Phantom Of The Opera (April 17-18)

Disney On Broadway - Celebrating 25 Magical Years (April 17)

Other Listings (from Filmed Onstage): LINK

...And from the Geek Files: A reunion table read with the cast of the TV show Chuck -
Chuck vs. COVID-19 (April 17)

Enjoy!

A Statement Of Our Principles

In This Time... Words matter.  Anyone who knows me, and has had to endure a long-winded in-person or multi-character typewritten spiel on anything from breakfast that morning, to the minutiae of a Marvel movie, to the justification for an assignment (see below this post), knows that words matter to me greatly, and that it can take me a long time to find the right ones...especially on something as big as the things we are experiencing right now.  And yet...they're failing me in my desire to find what feels like the 'right thing' to say about this moment where the myth of equal rights and protections in our country have been laid bare in a way that has resonated bigger and more intensely than it has in a very long time. Ultimately I'm a small person in a small corner of the country's whitest major city.  I have been, and remain, phenomenally privileged in my life in every way.  I have had little to no practical exposure to bias, to bigotry, to hatred, or to violen...
