@yay molly go see her show!
@bishop allen is playing at music hall of williamsburg tomorrow, not bowery ballroom
@lol well done switching computers 2 and 3!
@Nice try being a speculative asshole, but we’re not the same person.
Anyway, I (#2) once did a show under Molly’s direction, and I’m just glad for her success.
(Plus, I don’t think Little Shop of Horrors – to which #1 was referring – was unimpressive, but that’s beside the point.)
@What's up with not posting about a Columbia senior directing an off-Broadway show?? Unimpressive on-campus shows I can understand, but seriously?
Unexpectedly Dancing in Boise at the Producer’s Club (44th btw 8th and 9th) is almost sold out for Friday and Saturday, so buy your ticket online (before 5PM either day) or show up at 6 when the box office opens downtown.
@That's really awesome. Good job for her!
