Broadway ticket prices have officially crossed the line between obscene
and ghoulish.

Broadway’s The Lieutenant of Inishmore will host a blood drive for the New York Blood Center.

The first 50 donors starting at 10 AM will get a free $25 ticket to the lauded satire by Martin McDonagh at the Lyceum, 149 West 45th Street. The blood drive will last to 3:30 PM.

If you think that’s bad, just think of what they do to people trying to see Spamalot.

Remember when I promised twenty new minutes of Menage a Sartre? That was a month ago. In that time my pages of notes have resulted in only six and a half minutes of new material.

It’s a talky six minutes, too, which demands further chopping. Perhaps Menage is not meant to be any longer than it already is.

It’s a shame; Chanel was very close to being named winner of the “Naomi Watts Crying While Masturbating Award.”
