WOW we have a lot of Broadway News to catch up on - but first, can we talk about The Outsiders just real quick?! Because I saw it for the tenth time and yes - I still have more to say!! I also saw Our Town starring Jim Parsons, Zoey Deutch, and Katie Holmes, and I've gotta tell y'all my two cents. 

In Broadway News, we get into the unfortunate and premature closing of a beloved show, Suffs (i'm not okay) and we FINALLY have the highly anticipated new Lin Manuel Miranda musical concept album, Warriors!! To round out the Broadway news, there is a new Dirty Dancing musical in development?? Hear all about it and who I think they should cast as Baby and.... Patrick Swayze!
