Hyperliterate Care Bear/Edward Gorey crossbreed.
Your intrepid narrator of @knowtheatre and also @CincyFringe (my opinions are not theirs).

HAUNTED drops tonight. This gorgeous, chilling ghost play is available for download at https://t.co/ZyhESqDjFf; the $5 purchase price supports the artists and the Know Theatre. I am so proud of this gorgeous piece, and I really hope you enjoy it.

In my era where “doing drugs and chilling” just means Advil and ice packs. Which is to say my solo show is going GREAT; you’ve got two chances left to catch what audiences are calling “a medically inadvisable quantity of Liz.”

@crut @stratfest VERY excited to subject you to all of my opinions after you see it (including my deeply-held belief that B&B are a duo of same-sex-preferring bisexuals who are stunned to find themselves in love with each other but that’s about the text generally, not this specific production).

In January of 2020 I bought a ticket to see Much Ado at @stratfest. I finally got to use that ticket tonight and, on god, it was worth every single heartbeat of the wait. (And now I’m crying in my car, like one does.)

[Liz Carman 🐀 @UppityBroad]

@TheRBuckle I just want you to know that everyone I spoke to in town told me how badly I fucked up by missing Casey & Diana. Apparently you were mad brilliant in it. I hope you got to feel all that love during the run.

Delighted to see that the corrupt @CityOfCincy weasels are up to their usual nonsense of sabotaging their parking app so they can ticket us. Great job on the dystopia, guys!

@IWantMyPony @legroff I’m immediately googling because I too want to be a reverse-aging she-Merlin. I also realize this is how cults get started but I could do worse than joining a Groffian youth cult, surely?

@stratfest @acimolino_sf I DO remember that Cymbeline! I was so verklempt I stood in the parking lot afterwards and sobbed. And then took my shoes off, hoping it would help somehow? It didn't. So I was barefoot and crying in public. Anyway. 100000/10; one of my most-cherished theatrical memories.

@macwrites Is she eating pasta and watching me sleep? Because if that’s the case we all know I’m not the one at a disadvantage here. She’s the weirdo.

[Liz Carman 🐀 @UppityBroad]

@VeryBadLlama Ahoy, paging @BadMedicalTakes!

My Hebrew is rusty but I THINK it means Camel of God. Meanwhile, the name Ariel definitely means Lion of God.

I was working as a dorm parent when there was a lice outbreak. I asked the school nurse to check me for them and she said “okay but you’re probably too old and your skin is too tough for them to want you.” (I was 28.) Like, did my mom put you up to this or —

@angela_hui Oh this sounds fantastic. I've already ordered it from my local independent bookshop! <3

[Liz Carman 🐀 @UppityBroad]

It’s one banana, Michael! What could it cost, a hundred thousand dollars?

[Liz Carman 🐀 @UppityBroad]

@macwrites Do you need to talk this through as a crew, Mac?

[Liz Carman 🐀 @UppityBroad]

@sparklyjew Also "no Jesus here"? Gosh, tell me you've never been to an art museum or taken a Western art history class without telling me.

[Liz Carman 🐀 @UppityBroad]

@akaGhostBird @jamesholod I co-sign this! It’s one of my favorite films of all time because I absolutely believe the immediate mutual infatuation.

[Liz Carman 🐀 @UppityBroad]

I’m not particularly good at Hebrew but fuck, I love it so much.

[Rishus Cold Yetzer @JustSayXtian]

HEBREW: B and V are the same letter
ME: I get that
HEBREW: F and P are the same letter
ME: Ok, sure
HEBREW: Either TH and T are the same letter or TH and S are the same letter, depending on where your great-grandparents lived, so T and S are the same letter
ME: Now hold on ...

Hey @BroadwayInCincy — understudies and swings are the backbone of our industry and it would be great if you acknowledged them when they went onstage. Kudos to the @hadestown swings, who are CRUSHING IT up there.

[Liz Carman 🐀 @UppityBroad]

@tamaraneo Also this blows my mind! I have a mood disorder; I'm slightly sadder generally than is justified. What does that have to do with my ability to choose who represents me in government?
