I just want to thank this Reddit fam for all of the recommendations. I picked pulse 6 months ago for Ryan and Addie, but I didn’t even realize until the end when they gave us a playbill that Jeremy was our phantom.

I remember reading several times that there’s not a bad pulse, and all of the cast members are fantastic. This is absolutely true. I felt so blessed to be in the room with Jeremy and Addie. I was brought to tears several times during the night. And the highlight of the night was getting to go outside to the rooftop. I wasn’t expecting that at all based on several of the posts I had seen.

Last night was just magical, unexpected, surreal. As I type this, I’m still processing everything. I’m forever grateful for it all.

I want to buy my tickets for early October based on Pulse suggestions on Reddit. But wondering when should I wait to know who will be in each pulse for October 4th?

I just saw the touring group last night in Columbus and was blown away by this cast!

I saw Hadestown on Broadway in January with Jack Wolfe as Orpheus, Morgan Dudley as Eurydice, Kurt Elling as Hermes, Allison Russell as Persephone, and Paulo Szot as Hades. This touring cast was every bit as amazing as the cast I saw on Broadway. I’ve been to so many Broadway shows in Columbus and I’ve never seen an audience as electric and loud as last nights audience. I was on the edge of my seat the entire show and was regretting not going to see the show every night that it played this past weekend.

Nickolaus Colón played Hades - he stole the show for me. I want to see him again and again. That deep soulful voice is pure perfection.

Hawa Kamara played Eurydice - they really tapped into the emotions and brought me to tears many times. Such a perfect role for them!

Bryan Chan was our Orpheus and this was the best surprise. His voice sounded so much like Reeve Carney’s in the OBC soundtrack. He sang the songs the way they are in my brain from my AirPods playing the soundtrack on continuous loop. I hope we get to see a lot more of Bryan.

Rudy Foster was our Hermes- OMG what a punkin. My cheeks still hurt from smiling. He was having a blast on stage we all knew it.

Namisa Mdlalose Bizana played Persephone. She had incredible chemistry with our Hades. She owned this role and the stage. I loved her energy and sweet voice!

And the Fates - holy moly - these ladies may be the best Fates ever. Their harmonies were insane. I was with my aunt and uncle who had never seen Hadestown and the Fates are what they talked about the entire way home in the car.

As I’m writing this, I am looking to see when I can catch them on tour again in another city close to home. I’ve never wanted to rush the stage and hug a Broadway cast so much in my entire life. What a gift last night was.

I stopped by Brassica in Upper Arlington for curbside pick up this evening and got my usual Salad Bowl with Chicken and all the veggies. I haven’t ordered Brassica for at least 6 months. Something has definitely changed with their menu items and their recipes seem to have really changed…

- The chicken was shredded. Like pulverized. Used to be chunky roasted chicken
- The cauliflower flavor was totally off. Bland with zero flavor. Used to be spicy.
- The Z’hug was light green and really thick. Used to be legit Z’hug. This was more like pesto.

They’ve always been so consistent. There were too many items that were different this time for it to be unintentional. Did they get bought out?

I’m patiently waiting to see if Masquerade gets extended past September so that I can see it when I come to NYC in October.

Are the sales still good enough that we think
It will get extended?
