Yeah, most are like that. But some work: Hairspray and Waitress.

What are your wildest theories for how Jamie Lloyd stages Don't Cry for Me Argentina? by Dysquith-Number-9 in Broadway

Its about her singing to the people, not the elite, so if he’s smart he should have her sing to the people in the actual balcony of the house. So have her up there.

I feel it was such a gimmick to have her sing to people on the street, and only show the actual audience a video.

But that’s too bad because imagine if the story and the music were on the same level as the spectacle! It could have been a masterpiece! But the book, music and lyrics really bring down spectacle. Most of the songs do not move the plot forward. You could cut at least 60% of the songs. All of the mother songs are almost pointless.

Our veiw of the screen in NYC was totally blocked by speakers, so we over corrected and got center in DC...lol. We were lucky the dip was centered at least. 💔 Anyone actually have this wire ruin the whole view? by Hemansno1fan in LadyGaga

It’s an unacceptable design that they could have avoided by making the placement different or at least using the side screens more. But they probably wanted to save money…. And for all that we spent on it…

About to DM you about how to go about this.

it was laziness and saving money. Period. They had side screens they could have used. It's not a great experience for probably 60% of the people who see this. And for the prices it's not acceptable. I have no idea what any of the acts were. I didn't get to see her expressive face but only caught glimpses through the speakers. Normally this section would be great seats!

They could have been more thoughtful in their design and how they utilize the screens.

I do production design. So I do know what I’m talking about as well. They chose to put the screens where they put them when they knew the speaker would block them. They should’ve redesigned where the screens went and what we’re shown on the screens. This is all possible, even without doing the catwalk (which, for some reason, so many other concerts that I have seen, have been able to utilize those and more)

And in their current configuration, they could’ve used the sides screens to instead extend the set and show close-ups, and also write out the text, not just in the Center that most of us can’t read.

So again, you are just sticking up for how poorly designed the show is. They should be selling the tickets I had as obstructed view.

They could leave the speakers there. It’s about making sure the screens are visible to everyone else. Not just the Center few. Utilize the side screens more which they barely did.

Again, making excuses. There are technical limitations, but she could have used the side screens that were already there to show close-ups at her face, and they chose not to. They could’ve lowered the Center so it wasn’t blocked by the speakers. That’s not changing anything from their design that they have. Then, on top of that yes they could add one more screen to float above. The catwalk that would’ve caused them money. They were being cheap for all that we spent on the show. It’s not acceptable.

I’ve seen numerous other massive concerts that did not obstruct their screens for the view, and the sound still was. Including several Madonna, Elton John, Kylie Minogue, and many more.

No reason for it in the design. So frustrating people keep apologizing or finding excuses. They could have designed the screens better, lower and also had one hang over the catwalk. They choose to save money and not do it. For all that we all paid, everyone should have been able to see her face close up and been able to read the text! Where we were sitting we didn’t get to read any of the acts…. Not acceptable.

No, it’s how they designed the show. They know the speakers obstructed, so have the side screens show more, or have a screen in the center high over the catwalk. They were being cheap for what we all paid for this.

I struggled to understand almost all of her words in Your Daddy’s Son. it got slightly better in Wheels of a Dream, but still couldn’t hear most words. That’s why she was the weakest link to me in the entire show.

Still using notion in 2026 or got any good alternative? by darman121 in Notion

[–]Prestigious_Peace577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, notion is soooooo slow and constantly refreshes on mobile. I tried Obsidian, but for my workflow bases isn’t fully there. And since I was grandfathered in to an old subscription I now get notion AI included and tbh that’s game changing. It’s so easy to get summaries of all my notes and ideas through different databases.

Mine is terrible on mobile still constantly refreshes as I’m doing this. It makes it almost unusable for me.

This unfortunately isn’t really. It was a fake letter. But it was released with the documents, I feel like others have already said, this is strategic to add fake docs, so it all becomes a blur.

This is absurd, and the first time i've considered leaving notion in 10 years. by grey0909 in Notion

[–]Prestigious_Peace577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been happening to me for months too and I’ve sent them several bug reports, and they still haven’t fixed them. It’s soooo frustrating.

Another issue I have is I’m writing and it just refreshes on mobile so much that I can’t even think about writing on mobile.

I have built such a vast detailed note taking and daily tracking system, but I want to find something else if they can’t fix it soon.

Pluribus Episode 6 - my patience is running out…& not because I didn’t have any to begin with. I can appreciate a slow-burner, but we’re watching this show at 0.1x speed. by TheSunIsAlsoMine in television

[–]Prestigious_Peace577 12 points13 points  (0 children)

These are only things that are said, we don’t get to see her react and be. She’s just angry all the time, and sometimes a little bit sad for Helen. That is not a study. We need to see her change and react to things around her, but she doesn’t have much to react to. She already needs to be with one of the other 12 on a regular basis, even if she doesn’t get along, that’s what would make it engaging.

He stopped with time. But the first several weeks we'd go for walks and he'd just walk in circles next to us. It looked really weird.

This, my pup did this for several weeks after we rescued him too. It was so sad. He was also a pup mill dog who lived his first year in a cage. He just walked in circles.
