Regarding what's on Broadway these days
I've barely paid attention
I came across this story of current musicals and plays
Was something I wanted to mention
I did a double take
Didn't know what to think
Read the headline, what am I to make
Of Tony nominated George Clooney, Sarah Snook and Sadie Sink?
They could be a law firm, a popular one too
'Clooney, Snook, and Sink, how may I help you?'
George Clooney takes on the role of Edward R Murrow
A man who warned us yesterday what could happen by tomorrow
Sara Snook, there a Snook, everywhere a Snook, look
Audra McDonald, she will win, everybody knows
But it's not the same category as Sara Snook
That's the way it goes
Speaking of the way it goes
What to do about Sadie Sink?
Everything else at her we throws
It's not a good idea, it stink
I'd recommend seeing a show, but omg, the price
If the tickets were lower, that would be nice
If you see a good show, you'll remember, so
If you can, I'd say go

One additional thought..
One additional thought regarding Sadie Sink receiving a Tony nomination:
I really don't know what to think
About the nomination of Sadie Sink
Should I cry? Should there be tears?
I understand Sadie Sink has been
A fixture in her life for years
Sadie Sink was just installed
And by the way the plumber called
He'll try to see you by next week
To do something about that leak
I understand, so I've been told
Sadie Sink runs hot and cold
Could say some more, I think I'll toss it
Don't want you to think I faucet
Now the train switched to
Now the train switched to Farrah Fawcett, so much for Christopher Plummer.

Broadway shifts, stars step
Broadway shifts, stars step in, names that once lit screens now flicker on marquees.
The price climbs, but the stage still hums— if you can, go!

I agree 100%. Don’t get..
I agree 100%. Don't get me started about the ticket prices. Along with a ballgame or a concert, the cost is a major factor when and if I want to go to one. But seeing a live performance can be a memorable experience. Thanks for your comment.
