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.

Welcome to Broadway Abridged... um... 2.0?

By Gil on Friday, Apr 30, 2010

Maybe 2010 is a little late for 2.0. How about 3.0? 4.0? 3.5? Okay. Broadway Abridged version 3.5.

The new site design includes the following features:

Slightly less annoying shade of yellow
Wasn't designed in 2003.
A twitter feed which yes, I know, you had in 2008.
A blogroll that will show up eventually.
The ability to read abridged scripts right in your RSS Reader
A "coming soon" list on the sidebar.
A listing of All Abridged Scripts. Holy shit did I actually write all of those?

More abridged scripts are coming very soon because I've been seeing a sushi boatload of shows at once, like I tend do every end-of-April. But before we get too ahead of ourselves, it's time to do one last thing, and say adieu to the old website.

Oh older website. You were an ugly, ugly beast.

But not as ugly as Broadwayworld.com.
