@patkiernan! @UnitedAirlines_ Epic fail. Traveling for mom’s funeral. 8.5 hours delayed, I’m a million miler and 1k. Customer service broken, pilot broken (he did his best). Flight attendenents, broken. We spent 3 hours on a plane that’s temperature was over 96 degrees.

@BilldeBlasio @NY1 I live in Washington Heights, since you initiated the safe injection sites, our neighborhood has experienced a massive rise of crime. Plus overdoses at the A train 181 station. #notworking.

@lesliebricusse I'll never forget our time together writing Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka. You were so patient with this young and very green writer. Here's to eating the dishes in a world of pure imagination. #LeslieBricusse #willywonka #MusicTheatreInternational

[Lin-Manuel Miranda @Lin_Manuel]

I’ll let this clip speak for itself, except to say, “JIM, STOP.” has become the new family catchphrase in the Miranda household:

[Tim McDonald @TimiTheatrics]

Not sure what’s better, having done the show or @Lin_Manuel’s comments!

[Lin-Manuel Miranda @Lin_Manuel]

Last week they did Oklahoma! and in this clip, this lady recounts how the director, her MOTHER (!) told her to practice kissing in a closet with her co-star until they were good at it (the zoom is mine, not the show’s)

[Tim McDonald @TimiTheatrics]

Pinch me. Nah, punch me! @BTLMusical will be treading the same boards that launched @DearEvanHansen! @jodipicoult @thejeffcalhoun @KateOBoyle @benjpasek and @heyitsjustin thanks for the good mojo!

I read this article because I was curious about the evolution of language. I’m posting it because its conclusion kinda blew my mind. #moralindignationporn

This guy at last night’s debate! Dude, you’re on national TV... try to look engaged. 🤗

[Tim McDonald @TimiTheatrics]

@rrokicks Musicals are way harder to make than babies, and not nearly as much fun... so I’ve been told. 🤪

[Tim McDonald @TimiTheatrics]
