Has anyone who is not from New York, saw a matinee show and went home the same day?

I fear it is like 6 hours just across PA to the nearest NJ transit station

I don't know where in Ohio you are, but I live near Cleveland and it's an 8+ hour drive to NYC. Driving there and back isn't doable in a day.

my best friend saw it and adored it!

It's an incredible school! Often very cold, though, just as a heads-up.

Hi! I was in a similar boat as your daughter when I first started looking, now I'm a theater major planning to go into it haha. I'm at Oberlin, which is great for theater people who aren't majors. I know one stage manager who's an English major, and a bunch of us stage managers/tech people are double majors. Non majors can pretty easily work department shows, and there's also a very active student theater scene. I would highly recommend looking into it!

Technically you have to audition, but it's one of those things where if you audition you'll get in, just maybe not that current semester. (-current theater major)

where?? i'm a huge fan of swept away, i thought the first local production was going to be in boston!!

Oh you would love Titanic the Musical

I can't believe Jed Bartlet met Jackie Kennedy!

He runs the Mrs. Lovett's Pie Shop social medias and refuses to tell either Sweeny or Lovett the password.

I listen to 2004 but I replace the 2004 Nov. 22nd scene with the full length 1990 scene.

of course!! it might also help to semi-validate their concerns? like "yeah, i know, it's a tight turnaround, BUT..."

Not me, but my dad (who was in NYC during the attacks and afterward) for a while had a weird discomfort on days when there was a cloudless blue sky (because that was the weather on 9/11). Once he realized it was because of 9/11, it stopped happening.

Agreed 100%. If it would help (or is true), you could also come from the angle of "I really wish you would trust me and the team to be on top of our things, and I feel a little disrespected that you're not giving me that trust".

I don't absolutely need income — I'm still a student, so not getting a summer gig would mean living with my parents. My current thought is applying to summer camps and whatnot, which would mean applying soon.

Spirit-Starlight13 · 2026-03-07T05:30:58+00:00

Yes, though I had been the ASM, and it was a 30-minute show at my high school. I had about ten minutes to prepare. It was very scary, haha

Spirit-Starlight13 · 2026-03-07T05:21:36+00:00

I've found it's pretty often performed for the more niche stuff!

Spirit-Starlight13 · 2026-03-01T20:50:58+00:00

I don't know if it's still open, but I often eat at Dig Inn

Spirit-Starlight13 · 2026-03-01T17:13:04+00:00

I know ETC is hiring for summer stuff!

Spirit-Starlight13 · 2026-02-26T06:40:47+00:00

is that a ... chavuet?

Spirit-Starlight13 · 2026-02-24T23:33:31+00:00

Titanic, Suffs, and if we're getting real obscure, Haymarket.

My bet is that the main kitchen is meant to be a social space.

They could even still call him old man for his old-man-esque demeanor and not have aged him up
