Thankful for Theater

As we theater fans prepare for the Broadway numbers on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, I'd like to take a moment to give thanks.

Thank you...

...to all of those television programs that feature Broadway shows. While I am so fortunate to see most of these shows in their entirety, and appreciate getting to revisit them in this way, it makes me happy to know that these appearances might some how satisfy and nurture the love of live theater for those who don't get the opportunity to see much of it.

...to those who use Twitter and other social media to celebrate all that theater can do. Lifting up and supporting, rather than dragging down and tearing apart.

...to understudies, stand-bys and alternates. You work hard, are rarely seen, and when you are, people may be disappointed that the "star" isn't on. But I (and many others) appreciate you very much. Just this past weekend, I was reminded of this twice!

...finally, to all of you who come to this site regularly or once in awhile. You make working on it worthwhile.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING
