I was informed earlier today that it is #NationalTheaterDay, and, upon further looking into the matter, it actually is #WorldTheatreDay. It got me thinking about how important a role theater has played in my life.pic.twitter.com/bx7pdZED8s

So many amazing memories — from a high school Into the Woods production to a guy I had a crush on at AU who was in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum to Sweeney Todd with Christine Baranski and Brian Stokes Mitchell (and so much more). But, Sondheim, basically. 
Then, I moved back to DC in 2009, and I was blessed through my job at @metroweekly and through how awesome a theater world DC has become to get so much more involved in that world. Since returning to DC, I’ve seen, well, this many shows at more than a dozen theaters in the area.pic.twitter.com/QGx8fUJHzT
I got to talk with @HollandTaylor — https://www.metroweekly.com/2011/12/the-obsession-of-holland-taylo/ … — and @AnnaDeavereS — https://www.metroweekly.com/2011/01/voice-of-america/ … — and Moises Kaufman — https://www.metroweekly.com/2010/11/storied-lives/ … — and others in my time at @metroweekly. I learned so much.
Of course, there also has been NYC theater (and a trip to Chicago!), which has brought me such unimaginable joy over these past years. I have seen so many amazing shows and met so many unbelievably talented performers (and others in theater). It warms my heart.pic.twitter.com/aQKr2aAsnn
Over the past six months, I’ve been privileged to see still more incredible shows—in DC and NYC—and I just can’t believe how amazing my life is that this world and that all of you who make this world are such a big part of my life. (Yes, the music and the shroud are from Hedwig!)pic.twitter.com/Kbwndxdplq
It’s been 25 years since I saw Phantom. Since then, I have connected with so many people I never would have known—and shared further connections with many people I already knew—and learned new and very real perspectives, as well as almost unimaginable worlds, through theater.
Thank you, my theater friends — and all of the people who bring theater into our world — for all that you do. You’re amazing.

You helped a closeted gay boy find a world of out gay people in the plays he read in high school, a young man figuring out his place a way to see a world beyond his, and a guy who got sober and had his evenings much more open countless hours of art to be seen and enjoyed. Thanks.
Night, all, and let us be good to one another — and ourselves. (And support the arts.)
I was the fiddler in "Fiddler on the Roof" when I was in high school. I also performed in the musical "The Me Nobody Knows." I still love musical theatre, just saw a friend in "9 to 5" at a local show. #WorldTheatreDay
So great!!!
I was a MAJOR drama jock in high school. It taught me 1) to improvise in screwy situations, 2) to have no fear of public speaking, and 3) that I did NOT want to spend my professional life in that field.
