BWW Review: WAITRESS at The Hippodrome is Two Parts Love Story and One Part Comedy with a Dash of Heart Sprinkled Throughout
The National Tour of WAITRESS - playing at the Hippodrome until February 4, 2018 - is the best version of this particular show I've seen. I originally saw the show on Broadway last summer, but I just didn't get it. It seemed a little disjointed to me. The first act is all fun, while the second act gets dark. However, after seeing last evening's performance of this story played out by this fantastic cast, I'm fully on board with what the writers had in mind. These cast members are supremely talented and perfectly suited for their particular roles - able to bring the comedy, as well as the heart and every emotion in between.
STAGE TUBE: Artistic Musical Candle Lighting Vigil Event Helps Fight Domestic Violence: by The RACHEL COALITION
The Rachel Coalition: Domestic violence touches such a wide array of people and rears its ugly head in various shapes and forms in many of our lives.
Child abuse, elder abuse, spousal abuse all come under the heading of Domestic Violence. Neither physical nor emotional violence or both are to be tolerated by any of us. Burying our heads in the sand of silence is not the answer.
Bringing this topic into the forefront is important to us all. Important for us to have our eyes and ears open to those that touch our lives and need help.
