@TheCinesthetic The best part is being able to experience the entire text. Not all the performances are fantastic, but some are. When you hear and see the whole shebang, you DO follow the plot.

@ShaggyTheTyke I like him, but he hasn’t the range.

@theater_lovers His lip-syncing in Muppet Caper is. EPIC.

[Shawna Tucker Monson @ShawnaTucker]

@For_Film_Fans I saw him in Long Day’s Journey. Yup. The hype was correct. Also, my daughter waited on him at Borders in Chicago. He reports he was very nice. Double kudos.

To lose one king under a car park may be regarded as a misfortune. To lose two looks like carelessness.

Always go to the funeral.

Always go to the hospital.

You don't need to know what to say.

In times of profound crisis, people don't remember your words, they only remember whether you showed up for them at their lowest moment.

@EndWokeness Or a good tailor?

I think everyone should know that Nick Offerman has learned the name of every backstage crew member on this production and calls us all by our names every time he sees any of us - and even sometimes by full names and work titles if he knows them.

He’s a delight.

I'm just going to say it:

America has been going downhill since Saturday morning cartoons were taken off the air.

@rcbl I think the haircut is lovely.

What's frustrating is knowing Curiosity and Empathy are cornerstones of great acting, then watching great actors completely abandon both when it comes to politics.
