Hadestown…A Hell of a Good Time
Hadestown at the Walter Kerr Theatre in NYC The Most Nominated Show of the Year – 14 Tony Award Nominations Including Best Musical By Emma DeFrancesco Hi, my name is Emma and I’m a 14-year-old 8th grader at Oceanside Middle School. My mom loves to tell the story that while she was pregnant with me…
I’m Not Being Pushy, I Just Love my Tushy
So, if you’re like me you are a huge Samuel L. Jackson fan. In virtually every movie he’s in it’s Mother Fuckin’ this and Mother Fuckin’ that, a man after my own filthy heart. From Avengers to Zambezia he’s brought his own unique style to every movie he’s been in. And today my dedicated readers,…
