@zachraffio I’ve got something in the works for you very soon…

[Chad Kaydo @ChadKaydo]

From someone who gave one of the funniest performances I’ve ever seen, in “As Bees in Honey Drown,” at the same theater. The reveal of the iconic broads JS-C—and her character—had used to build her persona…ah, queer goosebumps.

@bmluse @roundaboutnyc Agreed, it's a gorgeous play and a gorgeous production.

@ScottGorenstein @roundaboutnyc Booked my second visit today.

The Under the Radar Festival will no longer be? Break, break my heart. That was where I saw perspective-altering shows from the Belarus Free Theater, and Manual Cinema, and Back to Back, for starters. NYC is feeling increasingly less hospitable to the adventurous theatermaker.

@westratenick So sad

@mischabreslin Can one read it? (One meaning me)

[Katie Mack @AstroKatie]

“Both sides are crazy” isn’t a neutral or impartial position when one side is arguing for the oppression and elimination of marginalized people and the other side is arguing for letting people live their lives in peace. It’s just a callous attempt to evade moral integrity.

@RachelShukert My mantra. When you arrive, before you leave. Always.

[Chad Kaydo @ChadKaydo]

@BethanyJarmul @Georgia85485397 I second this suggestion!

[Chad Kaydo @ChadKaydo]

@GrantGinder Just did that this week.

[Chad Kaydo @ChadKaydo]

@westratenick Need that too!

[Chad Kaydo @ChadKaydo]

Yes, THIS was the moment my tears started.

when Willem dances for Jude to “Wake Up” by Arcade Fire, I experienced catharsis for the first time in my entire life
