No barrier between fans and Hugh?

I guess that was the implication. I don’t see it though. I think the additional barricade at the curb might have confused the perspective.

Yeah, I was just guessing since Jo didn’t answer you.

Immortalized in butter ( temporarily, before it melts) -- the man without much of a "con-science"

Be sure to play the background music!

Come to think of it -- I was introduced to "76 Trombones" by the Boston Pops Orchestra

The production was dark for the week. Back tonight."

They are not selling tickets again for the week Sept 5-12. Early during the run ,this was announced as one of the Jackman leaves of absence. Will it be dark again?

Hugh Jackman is expected to be attending the world premiere on September 7 of his new movie THE SON which will be in competition at the Venice film festival and is also scheduled at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) after its Venice screening. The film is shaping up to be one of the awards season major hopefuls, including acting honors for Jackman. Co-stars are Laura Dern, Vanessa Kirby, newcomer Zen McGrath & a role for Anthony Hopkins. It is a film adaptation of a celebrated play by Florian Zeller ( Oscar winner for Adapted Screenplay for The Father, same film which won Best Actor Oscar for Hopkins). Zeller's co-winner for The Father and collaborating with him again on The Son , is Christopher Hampton of Sunset Boulevard fame. Hampton is a a major presence in both the film and theatrical worlds'
