Other than Pearl Jam, who else is there?

Yours is a complicated question with a deserved long and nuanced answer. I'll get to that tomorrow. But I'm tired now and so I'll say... yes the production is aware of all of it, there are conflicting thoughts within the production about this. The audience has varied expectations but so far it's been largely copessetic. There have been serious outliers.

Sam (the director) is a genius and an angel and he's taking all of this seriously as an artist and a fan and he's very thoughtful about the whole thing. So far, what he's done to address it has been encouraging.

So, it's like most of his other performances?

Just saw the touring Gatsby musical. None of the songs are earworms, but the sets and costumes are awesome. I also love the story so it was a winner for me. I need to go to more shows, not just my school’s performances.

We just announced Juliette Lewis's replacement in Rocky Horror and so far people seem really pumped. Honestly, the show itself is the star, but it's till really rewarding to see folks excited for the next gen cast.

There are a couple of others that I've heard we are considering for other roles that I think could also get folks fired up! We'll see what happens...
