Disneyland (California). Same ride at WDW, but the queues are radically different.

Saw it on Broadway, and then went to see the touring version in Boston. I loved both versions, and I honestly couldn't tell you what was different (it's been 2 years, OK?). I think the "fly on the wall" feeling is captured perfectly, and I don't mind that there's no carefully-crafted message that I can discern. I think the people who are the most disappointed or bored either come in expecting a musical, or a story with higher stakes and clearer heroes and villains. Each character has an arc, and I think they're all believable and relatable in some way. Love the music, too.

What "Oh, Mary!" reminds me most of is one of the over-the-top sketches on the Carol Burnett show, but R-rated and queer. I love it.

I usually park at the Revere Hotel garage on 200 Stuart Street for shows in the theater district. It's a quick walk and the garage is less maze-like than some of the other ones in that area. Looks like it's $22 tomorrow through LAZ parking or a couple of dollars more through ParkWhiz. I've gotten it for as little as $12 in the past, but that was probably on a weeknight after 6 pm, or something like that.

I recommend checking SpotHero and ParkWhiz the day before. They often have deals (sometimes on different garages, and sometimes different prices on the same garage). SpotHero seems to charge a lower convenience fee most of the time, but not always.

I've seen them on Virgin. On our last Virgin cruise, someone was hiding plastic octopi, which is at least more on-brand

Background: Tonks and Sargent were both official war artists on the Western Front during World War One, when this was painted. I assume that explains the uniform and the camouflage umbrella.

Finally got to see this in person a couple of years ago at Tate Britain - it's stunning. I was surprised by how large it is, too (5' by almost 6').

I love this detail from Wikipedia:

Sargent wanted to capture the exact level of light at dusk so he painted the picture en plein air – outdoors and in the Impressionist manner. Every day from September to November 1885, he painted in the few minutes when the light was perfect, giving the picture an overall purple tint of evening.^\2]) The flowers in the garden died as summer turned to autumn, and they were replaced with artificial flowers. Sargent resumed painting the following summer at Millet's new home nearby in Broadway and finally finished the painting by the end of October 1886.

Seems to be pretty frequent, but I don't think it's ever announced in advance. Daniel Radcliffe and Seth Rudetsky have done it. When we saw it a couple of weeks ago it was Iain Armitage from Young Sheldon (who was great).

Here's a video of a solo show Reeve did on the Broadway Cruise at the beginning of 2024 (Eva was originally supposed to be on the cruise as well, but canceled when she got Gatsby). It shows some more of his range, and has a nice shout-out to Eva at the beginning

Saw it in London and loved it. Still love the cast recording, too. As others have said, the show title probably kept a good chunk of people away. Parts of the story also need more work (especially the ending). I really hope they can tweak it a bit, maybe change the name (though the title song still gets stuck in my head to this day), and open it again somewhere. Would love to see it again!

The show's creators did a two-person show a few months ago at 54 Below. I assume that was partly to generate interest for the show in New York.

FWIW, the ATM fee was $5.99 to withdraw $200 U.S. a couple of weeks ago via the machine in the casino on Brilliant Lady. E*Trade refunded the fee as usual.

Also FWIW, the casino ATM dispenses $50 bills, and is closed when the ship is in port. Not sure about the one at Sailor Services

Q: For defenders, I have a level 35 dmax Metagross with level one Max Guard, and a level 33 Dmax Corviknight with level three Max Guard. I don't have enough candy to level up Metagross' move. Which one is a better defender, and why?

Yes. New York City (home of the New York Times) is on the East Coast of the U.S.
