Broadway is Expensive. Times Square is a pain to walk through. Intermission isn't enough time to scarf down that $12 Watered-Down-Mojito which you can't bring to your seat. And that jerk in front of you is going to give a standing ovation to a reading of the telephone book. Why bother? We give you each of your (not so)
favorite Broadway shows, ten minutes at a time.

Just Laughter: Episode 1

By Gil on Tuesday, Oct 16, 2007 | 4 Comments

Inspired by a friend's medieval blog's regular Monday feature, I thought it might be a good idea to create an new irregular feature here at Broadway Abridged called "Just Laughter".
The premise is simple: I find a new piece of theatre-related news, and then I type out the phonetic soundings of me laughing at it. Here we go!

Clay Aiken, who became a music superstar following his success on the "American Idol" television series, will join Monty Python's Spamalot, making his Broadway debut in the role of Sir Robin.

Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Bwah ha ha ha ha ha!

AH HA HA HA HA HAAAA HAAAAA HAAAAAAA.

Cough.
