{Out and About: Waitress, Take Four}

February 5, 2019 by kelerr

My current favorite Broadway obsession is Waitress, and it has been for quite some time. Long time blog readers may remember my posts about seeing it three other times. I first saw it about two years ago, when Jessie Mueller was starring in the lead role of Jenna Hunterson. She was brilliant, as was the whole rest of the cast. I was immediately hooked. The second time I saw it because Sara Bareilles, who wrote the music and lyrics, was […]

{Out and About: Dear Evan Hansen}

January 22, 2019 by kelerr

I swear I don’t go out as much as this recent string of out and about posts would imply. Normally I’m just home binge-watching Netflix and working on sewing projects, but for whatever reason the next couple of weeks are full of shows. Currently, I’m in the middle of a six show Friday night streak, and I’m outlining them all here. This past Friday’s show was Dear Evan Hansen, the Tony-award winning Broadway musical. A co-worker of mine was nice […]

{Out and About: Clueless the Musical}

January 15, 2019 by kelerr

I know what you’re thinking. There’s a Clueless musical? As, if! But there is… and Friday evening my friend Sarah and I headed on over to check it out. We first learned about it when we saw Puffs (the unofficial Harry Potter-based show which focuses on the life of the members of Hufflepuff House). In the program a little ad for Clueless caught my eye, and by the time the show ended, we had tickets in hand! The evening began […]

{Out and About: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child}

July 19, 2018 by kelerr

Ten months ago tickets were released for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child; the smash hit from London was finally coming to Broadway!  Ten months ago I bought inordinately expensive tickets to see this spectacular.  For ten months I waited.  And waited.  And waited.  Until the day finally arrived.  I finally got to see the next installment in the Harry Potter series! I put on my new Vintage Shirt Dress (made by me!) and headed into the city. I wanted […]

{Out and About: Mean Girls}

June 15, 2018 by kelerr

Last night I finally got to see Mean Girls on Broadway!  Note how I say finally like it’s been out for four years instead of four months… but when it comes to Tina Fey projects, three months is a long time for me to wait and believe me, it took a lot of self control not to buy tickets the minute they were released.    However, I waited.  I joined lotteries to win free tickets until finally they released the […]

{Out and About: Waitress, Take Three}

January 22, 2018 by kelerr

I wrote a review of Waitress the Musical last June after I had seen it for the second time (access it here), and my opinions of the overall show are more or less the same.  However, this third time around was really something special. Thursday night I headed into Manhattan again to see Waitress for the third time.  I believe there is only one other musical I can say I saw more than twice, and that’s Spamalot.  Waitress is in […]

{Out and About: Anastasia}

January 15, 2018 by kelerr

Thursday night I sat in the front row of Anastasia on Broadway, and confirmed the reason I love costume design.  Sitting that close to the action, I could see every seam and every details – right down to some of the structures under the dresses – and I loved every minute of it.  I always get a thrill from live theater, but it’s the costumes that get me every time.   I love how atmosphere, character and setting can change […]

{Theater Review: Waitress}

June 14, 2017 by kelerr

This past Saturday night, I saw Waitress for the second time.  I saw it first back in February, and I’ve had a post waiting in the wings that I never finished.  Long story short: I LOVED it.  I figured after the second go-round it was time I actually polished it off and posted my review. I’m trying to get better at blogging, and figuring out what it is exactly that I talk about here… I’ll get there eventually. After reading […]

{Theater Review: Amelie on Broadway}

April 27, 2017 by kelerr

It’s been a long time since I did a theater review.  Even though I’ve been “in theater” for the last ten years as the costume designer for my school, I’ve never actually studied the theory, which I suppose has made me feel unqualified to make a critique.  However, I am a person who forms opinions rather easily, even if they are relatively simple at times.  In the case of Amelie on Broadway, however, it’s a little more complicated. Frankly, I’m […]
