- “They come from far-off lands like New York, LA, and Toronto, singly and in groups, a surprisingly large number of them wearing thin, gold nose rings,” writes Tony Adler of the Chicago Women’s Funny Festival, which “may be a canny move or a big mistake,” placed right before Just for Laughs.

Death of a Salesman on Broadway “has set a record of $499 for the highest ticket price ever charged by a Broadway musical or play, slightly more than the previous record price of $480 that the 2001 musical The Producers charged,” reports the New York Times. This prompted Howard Sherman to tweet a variety of ways you could also spend your money to see theater; one example gives a plane ticket to Chicago, plus a ticket to Iceman Cometh. Except it’s sold out Howard!
