| When I first read dramedy's post, I thought he meant the paying audience, who had bought a ticket for a McNally play, was offered $500K to see the play in a different theater. I was trying to make sense of that statement until I realized he was referring to the play about Queen Elizabeth The Audience, which I did actually see. I was pretty sure no one had ever made that generous offer to me. Anyway, the confusion gave me a good laugh on this nondescript Tuesday morning. | |

| Yes. Teaching assistants are woefully underpaid. I am glad to hear they got a half million extra. | |

| I suppose you're joking, but the misunderstanding began when you didn't capitalize "audience" in this sentence: "The audience was offered $500k to move to a different theater to allow McNally play to stay put." A simple typo, no doubt, but it took me a minute to figure it out. |

| No problem. It was fine that you spelled it out. It only took me a minute to understand your meaning. | |

| LOL I read it that way too. My mind went to theaters now operating like airlines, offering money to change flights. | |
