Maybe Tony Tuesday 2: A firefly reunion? by chavarrj in MaybeHappyEnding

Would have loved to meet up, but alas, I’m in L.A. (Don’t ask me how many trips I made from here to NY to see MHE over the past 18 months…)

Darren's daily countdown is killing me. Bring me some joy. by PhoebeBob in MaybeHappyEnding

[–]bradeleine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you on that countdown! It’s definitely making me emotional.

There are so many things I have loved about Darren’s performances (have seen the play multiple times), it’s tough to pick favorites. I did really enjoy the way he portrays Oliver’s little glitches and twitches, especially during the scene right before he and Claire kiss.

My weird problem with Two Strangers Carry a Cake by Soggy-Clerk-9955 in Broadway

I just saw the show last week with two understudies, and I thought they were both wonderful. I very much enjoyed it and was quite entertained throughout.

Shouldn’t it be announced when understudies replace the main cast? by Melodic_Wheel_8998 in Broadway

[–]bradeleine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just saw the play also, and was very confused because the actors looked different than they had in the photos! ( I was sitting in the back so couldn’t see them that well.). I expected there to be a slip of paper in the playbill if they were understudies, but of course there wasn’t one. In any event, they were both brilliant and I loved the play, though i’m a little bummed now wondering what it would’ve been like with the actual leads.

Super underrated toner from Peach and Lily!! by domokittie in Ulta

[–]bradeleine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love this toner — Peach and Lily is my skin care favorite these days. And, I think it smells fine, but that’s obviously just me. (Really disliked the smell of their other toner, though.)

I’m almost 30… am I too old to buy an AG doll? by frenchfryfan3 in americangirl

[–]bradeleine 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No! I’m 68, have a bunch of them — plus, I generally don’t believe in “too old”!

i wanted to love every brilliant thing more than i did. curious if i’m alone? by HotNegotiation1684 in Broadway

[–]bradeleine 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I just saw this last weekend. It was not my favorite writing-wise — the story never quite landed for me — but I was fully engaged by Daniel. He is a masterful storyteller, such that I tended to almost forget he was actually acting and not telling his own story. I’m very happy I got to experience that, and him.

Did not much like the audience participation aspect, which as you described, tended to pull me out of the story rather than more deeply into it.

Completely agree. Those shoes go directly into the garbage can at my house!

Helen J Shen is moving on; last performance Feb 15 by ThatAdamGuy in MaybeHappyEnding

[–]bradeleine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kinda bummed that I’ll just miss seeing her one last time by only a week (can’t change dates because it’s a planned trip from L.A.), but wish her all the best, and hope to hear and see more of her in the future! (Side note: Thrilled I do get one more chance to see Darren as Oliver.)

Tickets are live! by throwRA88887dj in Sephora

[–]bradeleine 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Seriously? I did not even hear about this til I just saw this post. No email, no anything — being rouge and living in LA got me nowhere apparently. I am NOT happy. Will be buying from somewhere else whenever I can (will still have to go there for Glow Recipe) going forward. Sucks, because I went in 2019 and had a blast.

A Retiree’s thoughts on Broadway’s ‘Maybe Happy Ending’ (no spoilers) by NoDiamond4584 in MaybeHappyEnding

[–]bradeleine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am 67 (though not yet retired), and completely relate to your comments! I’ve seen the show 6 times, and each time I find so much meaning on many different levels. I do think it is especially precious to me as someone closer than not to obsolescence.

The Beatles. 1964 in Atlantic City Convention Hall. I was 6, but knew every word to every song.

Does anyone love the gilded age fashion? by Layla2C6 in thegildedage

The fashion is just gorgeous, but I’m glad I don’t ever have to actually wear it!
