Note
I just put two and two together. The Higgins' son the priest? His name is Lindsay and he's very liberal.
Jason's sister the former nun turned mystic/spiritual teacher ? Her name is Lindsay.
A lot of characters are named after loved ones of show members! Off the top of my head (some I just assume based on the names):
Keeley Jones -> Keeley Hazell (Bex and writer)
Ms. (Leann) Bowen -> Leann Bowen (writer/producer)
Phoebe O’Sullivan -> Phoebe Walsh (Jane and writer)
Jamie Tartt -> Jamie Lee (writer)
Declan Cockburn -> Olivia (Cockburn) Wilde
Jan Maas -> Saskia Mass CEO of Boom Chicago
Sam Obisanya -> Sam Richardson (Edwin Akufo)
Jane Payne -> Jane Becker (producer)
Henry Lasso -> Henry Lawrence (co-creator Joe Lawrence's son)
Will Kitman -> William Lawrence (co-creator Joe Lawrence's son)
O’Brien, De Maat, Goodman, Kukoc are also named after family and friends or as tributes.
Bonus HC: Ms. Bowen is played by Ruth Bradley, so it keeps alive my thought of Roy’s sister being named Ruth.

deranged ship ideas which will never come to fruition but if they do I will give JSuds my firstborn
Nate x Bex: Bex deserves someone to value her for herself, rather than as a pathway to a greater goal. Nate deserves one relationship in his life which doesn’t bring with it all the baggage from Richmond. Rupert deserves to be cheated on.
Also: they’re both cute as a button; the smol guy x tall girl thing is always hot; Nate gets on with little girls and thus could be the perfect stepfather for li’l Diana; Bex can be a little awkward and quirky at times; and Bex is proven to have a thing for the evil silver fox type. 
(I actually do think the show could pull this off, so I may have been a bit rash with the future of my hypothetical firstborn already.)
Thierry x Richard: Thierry is Quebecois, Richard is European French. Richard is a sophisticate who knows a fine wine does not have to be an expensive wine, Thierry thinks wearing bright red Yeezys to a funeral is a solid life choice. They’re like star-crossed lovers. The only similarity is that they got red-carded reeaal quick at the West Ham match, and neither of them get to hold the team braincell very often.
Colin x Lindsay Higgins: I’ll say this until I’m blue in the face: ‘appreciates life’s little grey areas’ is code for queer person of faith. I don’t make the rules, this is just a fact. Also, please consider that Lindsay Higgins is an absolute fox and Colin ‘thirsty much?’ Hughes totally deserves to sleep with a hot vicar. 
And ‘my body’s like a church in an airport’. Lindsay is a vicar. I’ve connected the dots. (You haven’t connected shit.)
Bumbercatch x Jan: Smolandtolsmolandtol. 
Beard x Ms Bowen: She’s a bit quirky and snarky enough for Beard; Beard has that same slightly gruff but charmingly enigmatic vibe that Ms Bowen seemed to appreciate in Roy. Also, and this is the most important part, Ms Bowen is not Jane.
Sharon x Trent Crimm: Yes, I know they haven’t even interacted once, but that much swag combined would create a power couple literally too fabulous for us to witness. Their child would probably end up ruling the world.
Nate x Colin: (I must be the only person in fandom to whom Nate gives off an awkward late-bloomer queer vibe, but there you go.) I am an absolute freaking sucker for a ship where two people have genuinely hurt each other and still manage to come out the other side. Colin would absolutely encourage Nate to loosen up more and have fun; Nate would use his somewhat fighty nature to protect Colin. And, as I have said before, if I wasn’t supposed to ship Colin and Nate then why the fuck did they have a shirtless Billy Harris getting all close and personal with Nate while smooshing his face and going ‘look at your face, look at your face’ in the first episode?! Just what acting and directorial choices were going on there?!
Plus, for my newer followers, I am 100% convinced that Colin would go full Dark Side for an evil silver fox at the drop of a hat.
I know it’s not gonna happen but on the other hand, I really really think it could happen. JSuds, my firstborn could be all yours for the low, low price of going absolutely batshit this season.

🌹🌹🌹🥰🥰🥰
Hoarding these for a rainy day and despite it being uncharacteristically warm today THE TIME HAS COME!
This is because God Forbid You Leave Me is now fully plotted out! The masterpiece is going to be 15 chapters so I have decided I am not going to start posting until I have at least 6 chapters of it written to try and contain myself. I currently have 1 chapter written and a lot of bits. Some chapters are better plotted than others and some have highlights like this
Tumblr media
and
Tumblr media
So here's a little snippet of what I actually have written ...
“I’m not being an idiot,” Jamie pouted. “Yes you are,” Terry chimed in from a couple of pews away. “Shut up, you’re supposed to be playing your game,” Jamie huffed. “And you’re supposed to be babysitting,” Terry crossed his arms, looking less than pleased at the detour. “I am babysitting, now play your game and be quiet and then we can go get burgers.” That seemed to appease his charge and Terry returned to playing on his switch quietly. Jamie turned back to Lindsay who was smirking with his arms crossed in the exact same pose has his younger sibling had just been sporting. “What?” Jamie frowned. “You’ve taken to this whole older brother thing like a duck to water,” Lindsay chuckled. Jamie’s brain short circuited and he was sure he was looking like a goldfish and not in the good Ted Lasso way. “Really?” Jamie whispered, his cheeks flushing as he grinned. “Ten out of ten Tartt,” Lindsay rolled his eyes.

Moments I loved in Newsies London
UKsies is a fansie's dream, every member of the cast is so in character even after the show ends and it leads to brilliant moments and interactions such as these:
*spoilers under the cut*
During 'Santa Fe (prologue)' there is fully a newsie undressing on the side of the stage, if you're sitting in the Bronx you'll get a lovely view
Zipline
Specs breaks up a fight between Race and Albert before 'Carrying the Banner' even starts
Crutchie has his own slingshot and shoots various members of the cast with varying degrees of accuracy
*steals apples from fruit cart, celebrates, gives one to a newsie sat alone*
Splasher jumps a skipping rope, he then proceeds to do a back flip in said skipping rope. You'll be hearing more about Splasher (Ross Dorrington) he is Something Else
Race actually smokes his cigar and blows the smoke in Morris' face
Splasher gets yeeted, cheerleader style
Oscar deliberately takes the paper from Davey's stack
Les makes sure to show his sad face to each side of the audience
Newsie fully asleep on the stairs on the side of the stage during 'The Bottom Line'
'Football? VIOLENT'
Davey tries to sell his last paper to the audience 'paper for you? Nope? Okay then :(
Les blows a bowery beauty a kiss and she gives him a feather, adorable
Couple of newsies watch Medda's show ('she's talking to me!' 'Nah, she's talking to me')
One of the newsies (?Race) nods his head along to all the knocks in 'Don't Come a-Knocking'
Bowery beauty kick line punctuated with 'woo!'s
Flirting 101 with Jack: 'the new york sun? I work for the world :D' *swings his legs and shows off his newsie bag proudly*
There is so much hugging in this show, this cast is so affectionate, its adorable
'AiNt wE tHe HoI PoLlOi'
'We got a ton of rotten fruit and perfect aim' *slingshots newspapers everywhere*
References to bway seize the day choreo in world will know
'Who wants Brooklyn?' (?race or tommy boy, couldn't see) *puts cap over face and plays dead*
Jack stays to talk to Katherine instead of going with the boys, Crutchie tries to get his attention - 'Jack come on! Oh for God's sake' and walks off. From where I was sat it sounded like ffs
The newsie wheeling Katherine's chair on stage for 'Watch What Happens' rides on it and goes 'woo!', she thanks them
side note: Matthew Duckett's Crutchie uses his crutch on the (technically) correct side, i.e. opposite side to injury, random but we love to see some medical accuracy in our shows lol
Crutchie initiates fighting the scabs and looks disappointed when he's stopped
Splasher doing no less than 10 box jumps in a row, possibly more
Splasher gets yeeted pt2
Les ascending
Crutchie using his crutch as a jousting pole
'They're slaughtering us!' *Splasher gets yeeted pt3*
Act 2
Cup clinkage
Driving the tables like cars around in kony - 'Zyoom!!!"
Ascension
Katherine's fork crown, apple orb and paper scepter
Crutchie breaking the forth wall and grinning conspiratorially at the audience in 'Letter from the Refuge'
Specs coming to get the letter from Crutchie and a refuge newsie helping him offstage
Jack putting les on his shoulders in 'Watch What Happens (reprise)'
Jack dusting himself off a seat in Pulitzer's office
The general reaction to Brooklyn
Jack hurriedly taking down his drawings when Katherine's there and hesitating before taking down a pic of (who I assume to be) Crutchie
'These kids put out a pretty good papeeerrrr' *runs away from pulitzer*
Roosevelt handshake fangirling
Spot intimidating Pulitzer
Crutchie wearing a police hat when he comes back in ('aint been the same without ya man!')
Crutchie holding his character and wincing to himself after getting his papers in the finale
'You already work for my father' - cue Crutchie breaking the 4th wall again to look directly at me and call Jack a numbnuts
Race greeting Wiesel with 'hey beautiful'
Spot to other newsies 'im not scary!' *hugs*
*standing ovation*

I just want to write out all the little details I noticed about newsies because they played a big part in what made the show amazing. I tried not to mention stuff I’ve seen in other posts and focus on more specific moments and interactions I liked but also I liked it all so there are a lot. Enter at your own risk I suppose? also this is a conglomerate of the three shows I saw (I sat in Manhattan, Flushing, and Brooklyn)
Act One!
These boys genuinely appear OUT OF NOWHERE?? I was sitting in Manhattan watching Race and suddenly SPECS IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME SINGING IN MY FACE
HENRY SWINGING IN?? people have called it a zipline but it’s more like he’s doing a Tarzan swing in
throughout the entire show there are boys sleeping every where between numbers
Santa Fe (Prologue)
Jack has drawings pinned up all over the penthouse!! a few of them were close ups of faces or full body portraits (I couldn’t see them all)
Crutchies “No I wanna go down” line is so much sassier (let’s be honest Matthew Duckett’s Crutchie is 10x more chaotic than any I’ve ever seen) instead of rushing through it it’s more like “No. I want to go down” *points at ladder to emphasize*
“Hop a palomino you’re ridin’ in style!” :DD
Crutchie whistles to wake up the newsies and it was so loud 
Things I noticed in Carrying the Banner (and there is a lot)
when it’s first starting and a few of the boys are still up in Brooklyn Jojo dropped his hat so Mike picked it up and put it on top of his hat then shared a laugh with me and saluted before Jojo ran by and stole his hat back
“ Hey look! It’s bath time at the zoo!” *cue Henry really aggressively scratching his crotch then cleaning his face with same towel* 
“Who asked you!?” Someone slingshots a newspaper at Albert and it’s supposed to hit him but one night it flew into the audience so Albert turned around and said something like “I’m so sorry about him”
“Any banker bum or barber!” I couldn’t tell who but one newsies goes behind Specs and accidentally chokes him with a towel (pretending to be  a barber)
When they’re all just being boys!!! Henry and a few other newsies play cards, Tommy Boy plays soccer with a wad of newspapers as a ball and Jojo, Splasher and one other newsie play jump rope (Splasher does a backflip while doing so, Ross Dorrington supremacy)
At one point Tommy Boy sits on the front of the stage and lights a match just to watch it burn? he was very entranced by the fire I will say
“waitin’ makes me antsy” line is actually directed at the nuns which I never realized until watching this
“Though you wander lost and afraid” idk if Jamie D-C’s newsie has a name but he nods and says “I am always wandering” while Tommy Boy very proudly shows his cross to the nuns 
“All I can catch is fleas” then proceeds to pick one off say “Ooo!! A juicy one!” and throw it at another newsie
While Crutchie is handing out papers he is an absolute menace “PAPER PAPER WHO WANTS ONE?!!!!” then proceeds to throw it on people in Brooklyn who aren’t even looking at him (they were very confused, by the time they looked back to see where it had come from he was gone) He threw his paper at everyone and then saw me (in Crutchie cosplay) and very politely handed it to me “here you go! :)” LMAO
While Jack’s running from the Delancey’s Crutchie yells “Run Jackie!!”
wheeee slide
DAVEY!!! 
Ryan Kopel his embodiment of Davey is *chefs kiss* very fidgety: tapping thumbs together, wringing hands, rubbing fingers together, wiping hands on pants/balling the fabric of his pants up in his hands. His hands are always either tensed or moving no matter where they are. has a habit of putting his hands behind his back (and looking collected) but that boy is still fidgeting
Crutchie death stares Davey which makes him look back (to make sure Crutchie isn’t looking at someone else) and then awkwardly shuffle around him (keeping eye contact at all times) as he and Les try to get into line
Morris takes Davey’s 20th pape and hides it behind his back before handing it back to Oscar
Race blows smoke into Davey’s face and I wish I had a video of Davey’s reaction cause oh my god
As everyone is trying to convince Davey to sell with Jack Davey is hugging his newspapers to his chest like his life depends on keeping them safe 
the way Davey says “that’s dizz-guhsting”
After Specs and Splasher get their papes they run off stage to the stairs between Woodside and Flushing “Hiya Splasher! anything good?” “Hey Specs!” then they read the paper together and it’s very sweet
Bottom Line
Pulitzer is scary I will build on this for act two but that man can yell
also his office is held up by newspapers and I really loved that detail (also newsies push it onto the stage very  ✨symbolic ✨)
“Football. VIOLENT?!”
Bottom Line has never been one of my top songs (and still isn’t) but I really liked it in this production Cameron Blakely has an amazing voice (they all do) and I just really loved the way this song sounded 
Also Bobbie’s Hannah is very much anti-Pulitzer and it makes the character very funny. like she realizes he’s a man with power and is intimidated by him but she definitely sides with the newsies more it’s very funny
Davey tries selling papes to the audience “buy a paper? anyone want a paper? oh- no not for you.” sir you can’t be picky with your customers
“Buy a pape from a poor orphan boy?” Davey rushes forward saying “Oh, no! he’s not a-” and Jack runs up and turns Davey around and walks him away from Les
Les and Davey interactions overall are so pure and sweet. Davey constantly has his himself wrapped around Les from behind, hugging him or holding onto his shoulders. He also looks absolutely astounded by Les, 200% of the time it’s just Davey watching Les like :O
“Come home with us? Uh- I mean- for dinner!” Davey. Why else would Jack have gone home with you  🤔🤔🤔🤔
Medda’s theater
When Davey notice’s Les looking at the Bowery beauties he’s so embarrassed good lord. He’s so jumpy and he gives the beauties a very quick apologetic look (very hesitant to look at them) and says “thatstheircostume!!” turning Les around away from them. 
The beauties put a feather in Les’ hat. 
Specs is helping set up the theater and completely drops the backdrop on Medda’s theater worker 
“Take it easy it’s a bunch of trees” Davey jumps in very quickly and eagerly “NO you’re really!!... I mean- uh... you’re really good” Ryan Kopel was successful in making Davey the gayest boy on this planet
While Les and Davey watch the show Ryan did not even try to sit like a straight person. First show he was sitting side-saddle with his hands laying on top of one another on his thigh like a freaking disney princess, second show he was crisscross with his hands clasped together, last show he was on his knees with his palms together like praying hands in between his knees 
boys at the front of the stage fight over which one Medda’s referring to (”she was talking to me!!” “no she was talking to me!!”) Tommy Boy then turns around and high fives another newsie
I never planned on you Jack literally crawls over Katherine’s lap, basically sitting on her for a brief moment to get to the other side of the box
Strike
“they got a mother? I was gonna get me one of those” the way Race says it is much more resentful rather than playful and he actually glares at Davey
during the formation of the strike Davey tries to hold back Les from joining the other boys when Les runs of Davey tries to grab him but obviously doesn’t succeed and instead he takes a few steps back, turning away from the strike and is very tense/fidgety as he hears them talk about what to do
when Jack asks Davey who tells Pulitzer there’s a really long pause and he clearly doesn’t want to give in to the strike “I- I guess... you do... Mr. President” almost annoyed that he’s letting himself give in
“Who wants Brooklyn?” Crutchie hides in his hat and holds his cross up towards Jack to ward him off
when Katherine enters and her and Jack have their little back-and-forth all the newsies are jeering and oohing and awing but Davey doesn’t have reactions like that he’s really carefully watching Katherine like he’s trying to figure her out (or maybe he’s just jealous about Jack ._.)
“me thinks the lady needs to be handled by a” snaps suspenders “real man”
When Davey says “I’d say we save any exclusive for a real reporter” it’s actually off to the side with Jack and he’s clearly trying to make it so that Katherine can’t hear (he looks at Katherine then back to Jack and kind of whispers ‘real reporter’)
End of Act One
unfortunately Crutchie does not say fuck he says folks 
Newsies zoom in on Katherine’s swivel chair and she thanks them :)
while Jack is tryng to persuade the scabs one of the is fully crying with tears running down his cheeks and you can’t tell because he’s staring at the ground hiding under his hat until the last second he looks up to the sky and then decides to throw his paper down(I couldn’t tell who it was but it wasn’t Splasher and it wasn’t Tommy Boy so if anyone knows who the third scab is, it was them... It might’ve been Buttons??)
Crutchie also starts tearing up a this point and pulls out his rosary to say a prayer
I haven’t really seen anyone talk about this but there’s a part in Seize the Day (I think.... it might’ve been in the world will know I forget) where all the newsies run up and form a triangle and yell out their names. It starts with Jack and Davey, Jack is very sure of himself and yells out his name at center stage then Davey looks around, runs up to join Jack, looks at Jack to see what to do then takes off his hat, does a little straightening tie motion and sheepishly says “Davey”
Les ascends
Matthew Duckett really loves ripping your heart out. Coughing as he’s dragged off. He calls out to Finch and another newsie to help but when he realizes it’s futile and hears Jack call his name he yells for Jack to run instead of save him
SANTA FE GOOD LORD the windows behind Jack light up yellow to make the moon of Santa Fe and it has an amazing effect especially if you’re in the middle aisle of the theater.
Act Two!!
before act two even began when I was in Flushing I could hear them tapping backstage and it made me very happy
King Of New York
The energy of KoNY is so insane that every single time I saw it by then end I was grinning and giggling so much so that I completely forgot letter to the refuge until Crutchie is sat on stage and I went from :D to o_o in a split second
“In the pape and you ain’t even dead!”
I’m sure everyone knows by now that they swing on the lamps and pretend the tables are cars but I don’t know if you’ve been told how terrifying it is to be front row during KoNY because one wrong move and you will get a tap foot in the face. Where I was sat for two performances I had Damon and Matt swinging over me and it is exhilarating but all I could think is if I stand up rn I would get knocked out. 
Race goes over to Davey and turns his hat sideways
when everyone’s clearing the chairs and tables at the end Race yelled “‘Ey Specs!” and pointed to a chair and Specs replied “The numbers over I can do what I want!” and I just thought that fourth wall break was funny 
Letter From the Refuge
“Cause so far they ain’t brung us no food” there was particularly loud laughter from Woodside so Crutchie turned towards them and said “heh, thanks,” then wrote down “ha. ha.”
Mike sleeping with his head in Jojo’s lap
Specs comes to take the letter from Crutchie and then Mike helps Crutchie off stage (he falls on his way off and has a coughing fit why does Matthew insist on destroying me)
Watch What happens (Reprise)
Davey is so bouncy and so much looser and just like you can really tell he has been fully accepted into the newsies inner circle it’s so cute I love it so much oh my god
“there’s no escaping us pal! we. are.” punches air “inevitable!”
when Davey tells everyone that Jack’s painting is of Santa Fe Jack looks like he doesn’t want Davey to tell anyone which I think is really interesting. Like Jack has almost reserved this dream of Santa Fe to those closest and he doesn’t want anyone else getting too close?? idk it was just a really interesting look 
Bottom Line (Reprise)
Pulitzer’s “Sit” isn’t directed towards Katherine and instead is directed towards Snyder, Katherine actually runs off behind the scaffolding and watches the scene unfold while she’s hidden away
JACK IS SO COCKY I LOVE HIM
*sing songy* “He’s asked to see you” with funky lil’ finger pointing
Jack dusting off Pulitzers steps to sit down
“And if they know me. THEY KNOW I DON’T CARE!!!! MARK MY WORDS BOY” like I said,,,,, Pulitzer is very scary.
Brooklyn’s Here/Strike Rally
BROOKLYN GIRLSIESSS!!!!
I love them so much
when Davey goes up to speak after everyone’s chanting for Jack he gulps and looks around and says “ohmygod” quietly to himself and lets out a little nervous laugh as he realizes how many boys are staring at him
As Jack tries to persuade the newsies to disband the union Davey tries to stop him multiple times “Jack please- Jack. Stop-” and while everyone gets mad at Jack, Davey is almost trying to defend him and talk him out of it. that is until Jack pushes Les to the floor and Davey grabs him, turning Jack around by the shoulder “What are you doing Jack??” and points at Les on the ground before helping him up and running off away from Jack
Mack holds Spot back from probably killing Jack
The rest of the show because I don’t have enough notes to separate by song at this point
Jack and Katherine’s hug during something to believe in enough to make me start shipping Jatherine
During once and for all Katherine and Jack hold hands and Jack puts a hand on Davey’s shoulder while they sing the first little part and at one point Jack grabs Davey’s arm and pulls him in but on the last performance Michael missed Ryan’s arm completely and instead succeeded in pulling him in by the waist (the Javey shipper in me was screaming)
when they’re throwing the banners to each other Romeo fumbled and almost dropped a stack and when I tell you I nearly had a heart attack watching him try to keep it going 
“These kids put out a pretty good paper!” Hannah goes over to Pulitzer and see’s he’s not impressed so quickly changes route to hide by Bunsen 
“Guys like Joe don’t talk to nobodies like us” they’re sitting on the desk together very close to each other jack has an arm around Davey and Davey tilts his head and gives Pulitzer the sweetest smile
When jack shakes hands with Roosevelt Davey’s eyes go wide and he puffs up his cheeks, restraining himself from rushing over but when Jack turns around he runs up and Jack has to push him back a little as they both try to act normal 
“Oh please your highness!” small group of newsies at the front of the stage giggle to each other
“What’s Santa Fe got that New York Ain’t? Sandstorms?”
a small interaction I loved was at the end while Katherine and Jack are talking about Jack’s next plans: Crutchie, Davey and Les are all reading a newspaper together and they all look so confused, pointing at a certain article and talking amongst themselves trying to figure out what it means. Crutchie’s holding the paper too high so Les stands on his tip toes to see it which prompts Crutchie to tilt it down for him
Katherine gets a newsies cap!

I don't want Colin and Michael to break up but it would open up the opportunity for Colin to come out to the himbos and for them to insist on going to a gay bar to help find him a new boyfriend.
Likewise! Michael seems lovely, but I would pay good money to see the himbos matchmaking because that's the perfect blend of supportive allies and absolute chaos.
I'm also deludedly clinging to the fantasy of Colin ending up with Lindsay Higgins at the end of the season, for various totally well-thought out reasons:
the man is fit as fuck. Colin, as we've seen in the last episode, can actually be a randy little sod, and I can only imagine that he would definitely appreciate a hot priest
the Higginses would make amazing in-laws and love Colin no matter what
I want the Higginses to have been super loving and supportive of their queer vicar son since day one; that's just who they are
'he's a cool priest...he has an appreciation of life's little grey areas' listen as someone who grew up in the church if 'little grey areas' isn't code for queer folk of faith I don't know what is
queer practicing Christians/clergy are a group that desperately need representation as much as queer footballers
'my body is a church at an airport'. Lindsay is a vicar. I've connected the dots (you haven't connected shit)
in conclusion: if Michael isn't longterm, give Colin a hot vicar boyfriend with a lovely family attached. thank you and good night.

Six (or actually Seven) Sentence Sunday
From God Forbid You Leave Me (Like All The Rest Did) aka. The Dad!Higgins fic
“Oh come on Jamie you must be fucking kidding me,” Linday sighed. Jamie startled, straightening up and turning to stare at Lindsay. “Mate can priests even swear? I also don’t think priests are supposed to swear at their congregation,” Jamie frowned with a little exhale of displeasure. “You are not part of my congregation Jamie,” Lindsay scoffed. “You’ve been to an actual service once and you kept looking like if you stayed too long you would set alight. I’m talking to you now as basically your older brother and you are being an idiot,” Lindsay explained.

It's surprisingly not how he got his name but one time on a dare from Ike, Splasher got on the roof and did a box jump which kicked Jack's paint pot off of the railing, down the scaffold and directly onto Race's head. He hid for 3 days but Race did not forget

Legally Blonde Review: Whipped Into Shape by a Sublime Cast
★★★☆☆ Open Air Theatre's #legallyblonde undeniably has a world class cast, but they are dramatically hampered by a production that does not make an effort to reinvent or adapt itself to the unique space
Lucy Moss’ production for Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre clearly demonstrates that even the most phenomenal casting can only take you so far ★★★☆☆ (more…)
