The L Magazine

OK, so let's do a little bit of advertising fun, shall we?

Here's how the most recent issue of The L Magazine looks under the eye of advertisements:

  • "A Bloody Riot!"
    - Raven Snook, The L Magazine

And here's what she really said:

  • The third annual New York Musical Theatre Festival.
    Here's my completely biased, mostly rumor-based roundup of the shows you want to see.


    Oedipus For Kids!
    No, this show isn't appropriate for tots and yes, titles with exclamation points are really tired. But this musical about a children’s troupe that ill-advisedly attempts to musicalize Sophocles' masterpiece with numbers like 'Be Kind to the Blind' and 'My Lover is My Husband is My Son' sounds like a bloody riot.

I saw another "sold out" NYMF show yesterday. The seat next to me was empty because of more unused press/VIP seats that went onsale, even though nobody knew about it.
As nice as it is to brag that a show is sold out, there's a level of ingenuinenessness when you show up to a sold out performance to find that you can put your smuggled-in puppy onto the empty seat next to you.

Our extension dates are now entirely sold out. The only way to see the show now is getting tickets 7PM the night before any performance, or at the show a half an hour before.

Well, that's not the only way to see the show. I also accept favors.
