Some of my favorite watches of June ☀️

Second watch of Two Strangers!! Last time I was here was the first preview, but I sat in the same seat both times :)

(Balcony A-12 at the Longacre is unofficially my seat now)

Finally saw Death of a Salesman the other day… certainly a choice for father’s day lol

Incredible show, though. Standout lighting & sound design for me. Also I love a car on stage!
