Does anyone else find it Ironic that the Nederlander theatre has hosted two hits both with characters dreaming about heading out west to Santa Fe. Rent and Newsies.

Only if Nederlander means "Shows that have Santa Fe in them won't play here."

It's "ironic" in that "rain on your wedding day" way.

It's not ironic it's just a coincidence.

Ironically, somebody told me Oliver Platt actually did go to Santa Fe after Guys & Dolls closed.

I'm really enjoying reading this thread - so useful, entertaining, and not annoyingly pedantic at all.

Ironically, "moving on" is a lyric from a Sondheim show that play the Booth Theatre, which is nowhere near Santa Fe

I don't see what's pedantic about disagreeing with someone misuse of a word. Would it be a pedantic if someone thought tuba meant great performer and we disagreed with them for saying something like "Does anyone else think Orefeh is a tuba?"

But I said it wasn't pedantic. Wait, do you think I'm trying to convey a message different from the literal meaning of my words?
