Why I Don't Appreciate @BroadwayGirlNYC

If you love Broadway, if you have a Twitter, if you're basically ALIVE, then you've probably heard of @BroadwayGirlNYC. She has an anonymous twitter account, and all she does is tweet about Broadway. Sounds like a good idea, right? So WHY don't I like her?

First of all, she's about a half-step below @BroadwaySpotted, stalking Broadway stars and tweeting at the same people over and over, practically begging them for a response. Second of all, she's generally biased. Now she has her own blog on www.Broadwayworld.com. I am wtfing.

Cathryn's Quotes

"Life is a mistake that only art can correct."
-Stew

"Other people's success is not your failure."
-Christian Borle

"Unless the theatre can ennoble you, make you a better person, you should flee from it."

"I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being."
-Thorton Wilder

"Just laugh it off, like I've always done. Lord knows they've all laughed at me before. Shouldn't surprise me much anymore; shouldn't still hurt, but it does. I thought someday you'd believe in me. Maybe that proves that I'm not too bright. Not if one word from you sets me right back where I was. Back to the sun, back to the shore, back to what I was before. Back where I'm known, back in my own, very small pond. Why am I here? Why did I leave? What did I hope to achieve? Stupid of me. Trying to be...legally blonde."
