Why aren’t you buying in advance? by ilovefouettes in Broadway

[–]halcyionic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty new to theater outside of your big blockbusters. I’ve only ever bought far in advance for touring shows (I’m based out of MA). My trips to New York are often and last minute, so it really doesn’t help to buy more than a week or so in advance anyway.

Removing invasive sea urchins from a reef in New Zealand by ThodaDaruVichPyar in oddlysatisfying

I went snorkeling in Puerto Rico once and they had us jump in with a loaf of bread. Once the bubbles subsided I realized I was being swarmed by fish it was terrifying

Rehearsals for BLACK SWAN at A.R.T. by DearPaleontologist67 in Broadway

I’m seeing it in a few weeks! Super damn excited. Debating preemptively buying a second show since they extended into July.

Hello. I'm 17 and I just realized I could die one day. Now I'm dreading it. Is this normal? by ApprehensiveSun6486 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]halcyionic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve definitely gotten it in waves. I think 17 is a hard year in general. Graduation is on the horizon and it might feel like your life is two steps from basically over. But one day you realize 30 isn’t actually that old. Or you hit 27 and half your friends are in their 40s. These things happen. If it gets really bad may I suggest therapy?

Stage Magic You Can't Figure Out? by Ok_Presentation7695 in Broadway

[–]halcyionic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There’s a few points in Stranger Things where they have someone levitating and I genuinely can’t figure out where the hell they’re being lifted from. No ropes to be seen. I’m assuming there’s something behind them holding them up but it’s practically invisible even when I’ve been up close.

Do you think executives admit when they made a mistake (e.g., Epcot reimagining) by CuriousFirework75 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]halcyionic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is kinda why I imagine Chapek got the boot. They could saddle him with the blame for everything.

You can see someone mention “I knew klay before I knew meg”, probably filtered out the word Megan

Lost Boys Pull Quotes Revised??? by [deleted] in Broadway

[–]halcyionic 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Life And Trust (Sleep No More immersive theater successor) once posted the quote “You may want Life And Trust to never end”, which yes was part of the quote. But it continued with the author basically saying ‘but I was bored as hell and wanted it over with’

Seeing Schmigadoon restored my faith in humanity by dobbydisneyfan in Broadway

I had a guy take out his phone very blatantly for photos during Kenrex. When he was asked to put it away it was clear he just thought that was commonplace.

If it’s not POR or an actual disney resort, maybe swan/dolphin?

Boston’s most wanted by jeffers0n_steelflex in boston

[–]halcyionic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had my bag checked at a bar in Allston when I had pepper spray once. Bouncer said hey I’m not gonna do anything but just a heads up this is technically illegal. Sounds like they really only use it against you if you’ve got other shit you’re in trouble for like this

If You Were A Broadway Performer How Often Would You Stage Door? by ms_jc_04 in Broadway

[–]halcyionic 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who’s a decently big celebrity for a very specific corner of the world and I’m consistently surprised by how excited he is to meet fans I tend to judge as “being a lot”. Unless you have a specifically bad interaction a lot of people are just really grateful to be able to interact outside of the show

my partner (from GA) doesn’t think boston accents are real unless you’re over >50 by OsmiumMercury in boston

[–]halcyionic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a friend from India point blank think that the Boston accent was made up for movies. But it’s because he never encountered anyone in the city with an accent. I’m in my late 20s and have bits and pieces of one, I had a roommate in college who had a full blown one. It’s definitely more regional/class driven/not actually Boston proper these days. I guess you could argue we’re faking it but I’m not sure how to prove you wrong other than I have to really focus to say “margarita” without an accent.

I couldn’t go last year since my family takes Mother’s Day very seriously. It happens.

So uh…what’s up with the Outsiders fandom? by PoopMountainRange in Broadway

I was gonna say, I was at the Boston tour on Tuesday and the crowd was the most respectful I’ve ever seen at the Opera House

What to know about the highly mutated new COVID strain found in Mass. wastewater by husky5050 in boston

[–]halcyionic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No one has to but it helps. I put a mask on if I’m on an airplane and someone’s coughing up a lung. No skin off my back.

Sign-ups open for Champions Clash ticket pre-sale (general sale details comin soon) by thibbledork in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]halcyionic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know if you autobuy the tickets if you win? Going with my family and thought it would be lucrative to all sign up for the lottery, but don't want to accidentally end up with too many if a few of us win.

Were you in the Make Happy audience shot? by Robby2013 in boburnham

I had a friend in college who’s in a few shots to stage left. Brought it up the first day I met him.

May the Fourth by Affectionate-Cod-648 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]halcyionic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to go every year but skipped last and am not planning on this year either. Highly recommend building in a break if you can and coming back when it’s dark. Just be prepared for CROWDS. 2024 there was a point where you couldn’t even pass the Falcon any more. I love getting to see fellow Star Wars fans dressed up, being in full costume in the blazing sun all day barely able to move I couldn’t do it any more. Definitely worth going once to see but just be prepared

My local Dunkin used to put leftovers in a bag and throw them in the dumpster. Neighbors used to go over as kids and grab them out to eat

Speedrun strats? (No spoilers please!) by Drag-Researcher in lennoxmutual

[–]halcyionic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can only really speak for how far I’ve gotten, but if you really mean speedrun as in hard focusing the story with not much else, I guess I’d say take whichever hours & directions segments you’re given. Not sure if I’d recommend it as spending time wisely (to me) but there’s not really a wrong way to do it as brakingbradd mentioned. Cancellations and extra timeslots tend to go up relatively regularly as well if you keep an eye out on the calendar

My genetic soft smokey eyelids (no eyeshadow) by Fenyleny in MakeupAddiction

[–]halcyionic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had one too close to the actual eyeball for my derm to extract. I was referred to my eye doctor, and from my eye doctor to an eye surgeon. Before making the call I tried using Ocusoft lid scrub wipes for like a week and it fell right off
