E.g., the donkey-boys from Pinocchio are hotboxing in the parking lot; Park-Elsa (Maggie Hoffman) has a lover who can’t let it go & the secret hero is the (titular) cat (Jess Barbagallo). It’s ~2.5 hours, exactly the time you’d spend waiting for Space Mountain. Also: there are intermission waffles.🪤
The Clubbed Thumb people just added a Fri matinee for Derangements, which is the first show to reduce me to helpless gasping laughter this year. When I say playwright Nadja Leonhard-Hooper has EXACTLY matched Danny Wolohan’s freak, I know some of you understand what’s at stake. Get on the waitlist
