Well! I found my first three Sondheim playbills. Thank you, Youngstown, Ohio, for some early Sondheim in my life. (Although I’m apparently missing one Assassins playbill from Youngstown in 1996, if my brain is still working. And I guess I saw the second ITW in 1996 on a break?)
Then, some collegiate Sondheim — from American, Georgetown, and Youngstown State — from ’96 to ’01.
And, finally, that amazing Sondheim Celebration performance of Sweeney at the Kennedy Center in 2002.
@nickblaemire You might recognize one of these! Apparently I saw you in one of your early roles!

The Senate voted for Rahm after 1 in the morning on a Saturday. Only three Democrats — Merkley, Markey, and Warren — voted against Rahm, who covered up the police killing of Laquan McDonald.
I mean, technically speaking, some Dems forced some Republicans to support his nomination to get him confirmed, but, yeah, a whole lotta Dems out there — @SenBooker? — who were big on police reform last year nonetheless just voted to confirm Rahm to end this year.
I highlight Booker because he was literally the lead sponsor of the Justice in Policing Act of 2020: congress.gov/bill/116th-con…

“Once upon a time …”
Joanna and Chip! Are so perfect! The number of times I listened to this OBC recording — on CD! — long before I truly understand how incredible this all was. 🥺 But, I was learning. And loving it.
I was in high school in Ohio and it was the early ’90s — he has charm for a prince, I guess — and I was just beginning to fall in love with musical theater — a bean can begin an adventure — and Into the Woods was my introduction to Sondheim. It was unlike anything else.

So unbelievably sad. Incredibly privileged to have gotten to see him at Company last Monday. My heart goes out to his family and friends and everyone in the theater community. nytimes.com/2021/11/26/the…
He created so much of my world of musical theater, which has provided me with one of the most comfortable spaces in my life. I am forever grateful to Sondheim for the worlds he has created for us.
A clip from last Monday, and some more sentiments, over on Instagram:
