@stressmuffin2 years agoI want to say congratulations to Broadway Bares for their 30 years of successful shows raising money for AIDS research and those in need. As of tomorrow, I too will celebrate my 30th anniversary of graduating from Eagle Rock High School. I have no regret in choosing nursing as my profession. However, instead of becoming the star of stage, TV and movies I wanted to become since childhood, I instead, went from church choir member to a rising You Tube star in the making with 165 subscribers so far. So cheers to us on our 30 years of success in your show, and me living my childhood and teenage dreams come true! 🥂🤩😍🎭🎊🎉 ...36

@Olivia-co8pg2 years agoIs this necessary? It looks like choreography hasn't changed for forty years or so. I don't mind people jumping around and acting like they invented sex, but I cannot imagine paying for it.
