Shut Everything Down: Sandy Edition
Well, besides closing nearly all manners of transportation in and out of Manhattan, Sandy has also put a downer on one of the city’s greatest tourist attractions: Broadway shows. All Sunday matinees went on as planned (with lots of swings taking the roles of actors too scared to leave their apartments). However, Sunday night shows…

Five Things You’ll Be Glad Newsies the Musical Changed From the Movie
In fifth grade, on a particularly slow day at school, our teacher showed us an entertaining movie on the Newsboys Strike of 1899. This movie was Newsies, and from then on, that movie became a part of my life. I knew Christian Bale as a song and dance man before I knew him as Batman…

Up and Coming: Macklemore
To say Macklemore is an up and coming artist is almost a discredit to his decade long career, and yet, it’s really the best way to describe him. Just a few weeks ago, the names “Macklemore & Ryan Lewis” would have not been recognized by the average person outside of Seattle, WA. But, due…

Muse Saves Studio 8H
The show that the cast and crew of Saturday Night Live put on this past weekend was sub-par, to say the least (save one hilarious Bond girl skit).

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Theodore Roosevelt have been running competitively since 2006. Good old Teddy Roosevelt has lost the last 534 races, but remarkably, yesterday afternoon, he finally won one. In the past,…

Billie Joe Armstrong, the lead singer, was reportedly going cold turkey in the past few years. On the set of American Idiot, the Broadway musical based on the album of the same name,…
