I have never been more convinced of the power of theatre

TFW you paid $1400 to see Beckett’s most famous work without knowing anything about it

One Star Review of Waiting for Godot on Broadway
I recently attended Waiting for Godot on Broadway and spent over $1,400 for two Row C seats (103 and 104). I'm a longtime admirer of Broadway productions and even hold a season pass for Shea's Performing Arts Theatre, so I came in with genuine enthusiasm and high expectations. Unfortunately, this show was unlike anything ! have ever experienced —and not in a good way.
What I encountered was not the artistry, music, or emotional storytelling I usually associate with Broadway, but instead what felt like an endless cycle of nonsensical conversation between characters who seemed trapped in their own madness. I tried-truly tried-to find meaning, symbolism, or even a thread of emotional resonance. I stayed through the first half hoping the second would offer clarity. But by intermission, it was clear: this was a waste of both time and money.
Keanu Reeves is an actor I respect greatly, but I cannot fathom why he would agree to participate in such a disjointed, inaccessible production. His talent was lost in a performance that defied reason rather than provoked insight.
To anyone considering attending: unless you are drawn to highly abstract, nearly incomprehensible theater, I strongly caution you against this show. For the average, educated, thoughtful theatergoer, it is far more frustrating than fulfilling. In my opinion, this was the single most disappointing Broadway experience I've ever had - an unfortunate waste of money and, more importantly, of time.

huffing paint on the bus is antisocial but less antisocial than the guy who played a saxophone.

Tylenol’s link to autism is unproven, despite President Trump's warning based on inconclusive studies. But hundreds of Americans accidentally overdose on the drug each year, suffering liver damage that can require a transplant or even be fatal.

Taking Too Much Tylenol Has Proven Risks. Trump Didn’t Talk About Those.

this MLM having a convention a block away and the street is overrun with women who look EXACTLY like this wearing the leaf crowns. HBO doc drops when

A faux magazine cover photo shoot of 25 woman who are mostly extremely extremely extremely white. All have long hair in Mormon waves. No one is heavier that maybe 125 lbs. Everyone is botoxed and fillered but not overly so. Everyone is wearing neutral colored dresses spanning from girlboss to cocktail waitress. All of them are wearing crowns of olive branches because the company is called Olive Tree People. Below, it says “our legendary women of the year” I cannot stress how creepy this is.
