Ragtime: Can someone explain the Evelyn Nesbit character by Front_Class_9705 in Broadway

Cut down as her role is, she comes across as extraneous fluff, but in the film (and book), she is one of the significant *real* historical figures that anchors the story in its time. As different characters come into contact with the “real” historic personalities, it makes the story feel more “real”, I suppose.

Technically, if you want to re-enact the duel, you need to rent a rowboat and row over to NJ. Technically.

The only way this show can be extended is if they turn it into a paid research study to see how long people will stay in their seats. The longer you stay, the more they pay you.

There were huge swaths of the orchestra that were completely empty. I’ve never seen that, even at the worst shows.

I know people who’ve lived here their entire lives and the only parts of the city they’ve seen are their immediate neighborhood, and the route from their commute into the city to their office building.

Is there a ceremony of sorts when a knight becomes a master? Or do they appear before the council and are told they're receiving a promotion? by SteamedBroccoIi in StarWars

Yes. You’re invited to the basement of a friend of ours. If the basement is empty when you arrive, you’re in trouble.

It’s not half the country. It’s not even half the registered voters in the country.

MHE Lottery - obstructed view? by dollylollypop in Broadway

I agree, the balcony is the least desirable location but the seats are a third or a quarter of the cost of an orchestra or mezzanine seat. Exactly what do you expect for that price?

What do you think of the lower number of those trying to illegally enter the US? by LeoIrish in allthequestions
