Best Laugh On Broadway (Abridged)

Best Laugh On Broadway (Abridged)

Folks, seriously, if you're not reading Broadway Abridged, you need to start now.

Gil Varod is a genius. He now takes aim at Blithe Spirit via Twitter -- well, as if the show's stars were tweeting. I laughed so hard I started crying.

You can follow Gil Varod on Twitter @DidYouSayGil and Broadway Abridged @BwayAbridged; if you'd like to follow me, I'm @SteveOnBroadway.

Enjoy!

This is Steve On Broadway (SOB).

As someone who has been involved in both politics and public relations, it's no wonder I love watching theatre. Good or bad, it's the raw energy of seeing a live performance that gets my adrenaline pumping. From the moment I saw my very first Broadway show ("Annie" in London in 1979), I was hooked. Now I see as many as 70 shows each year ranging from soaring musicals to two-hander plays. And these eyes just may be in an audience near you!
