Broadway Lives ... via Toronto

A musical that started out as a one night event at one of my favorite (favourite) places on Earth (Toronto's legendary Rivoli) is nominated for six Tony Awards. My fondest memory of the Rivoli is watching Kevin McDonald try out new material there while Scott Thompson and friends sat at the next table.

The Rivoli also introduced me to Pad Thai. That's enough for one venue, right?

Good luck to The Drowsy Chaperone!

Makes Me Wish I Had The Dish

Dish Network's Artstar looks like an interesting show if Voom does it up like Project Runway. Museum of The Moving Image (NYC) offers a preview on May 12. But is art-reality somehow an oxymoron? Or is "reality tv" the true oxymoron? And if it were 1980, would Basquiat have auditioned? Too many questions ... just watch.

The Rise of Rachael Ray

I've been pondering what makes Rachael Ray so popular. Time has named her one of the 100 "People Who Shape Our World"

And all I can come up with is, she is what Ellen Degeneres and Oprah Winfrey ain't. She's white, hetero, suburban, NASCAR friendly and appears to be able to cook. She's who you would like to see hopping out of the SUV to pick up the kids. That's good comforting TV in regular America.
