I’m not sure of the “bar”-ometer regarding drinks being served, as last night was my 1st time back in a Broadway house since the pandemic began.
The ushers were amazingly watchful and had scheduled “parades” down the aisles for quick spot checks.
But at intermission the bar was open and people were partying like it was 1999! Mostly loud cackling and several mask drops until an usher swung by.
A bit jarring for my first time back. And while i appreciated everyone’s enthusiasm at being at COMPANY, I kinda stood off alone to the side of the theatre just to be cautious.
I wasn’t sold on Lenk, but damn, the solid supporting cast was terrific. A pretty full house for a Tuesday evening, and they played the show as if it were opening night. Just joyous! |
