Probably some more small gigs there at some point but saving up for a big splurge in 27 with x4 festivals and 6 weeks traveling Norway/Sweeden again.

Giant is one of the greatest things I've ever seen on stage. Will you be in New York for Death of a Salesman?

I don't think so, but I saw the 2018 revival with Wendell pierce and I can't see anything touching that.

EDIT: I am there, I'll check out prices, Laurie Metcalf dragging Bruce Willis to a semi decent performance was a miracle, intrigued to see her opposite someone talented.
