Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from March 11, 2022 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

Hello, darlings! Is anyone else hearing both the show and stream simultaneously? The effect is a bit unnerving.

One night *seems* like kind of a short run. But in the 18th century, the company recouped its costs in two nights, and if people still wanted to see the play, it would run for a third and pay the author (some of) the proceeds.

I've been to Brattleboro a few times (rented a house in that area for a week during the summer for a few seasons-used to mountain bike at Mount Snow. I used to be much braver). Beautiful area! The drive from Joisey was just too much, though.
