PSA. If you were considering buying a US National Parks pass (for you a a gift for a traveling loved one), I'd strongly recommend you do so before January.

If you buy now, it's good through next November (or December if you buy next month.

Not to make anyone jealous.. but I'm now in possession of these shirts worn in the Shirt Brothers sketch from season 3 of I Think You Should Leave. #ITYSL

I've been neglecting my nightly send offs. I blame time change and being tired

That being said. One of favorites of this young Canadian artist. I'll see her show tomorrow in LA

I've found quite a few great artists via @woj.bsky.social 🙏

As a theatre geek.. I'm most looking forward to this weekend. Hands down the best movie adaptation of a musical in decades

Still can't get over how good Cynthia Erivo was as Jesus in JC Superstar @ the Hollywood Bowl

I digress. Happy #Wicked week for those that partake🧹💚
