I must say that I’ve been terrible at seeing plays this season. The latest casualty is Jitney at Manhattan Theatre Club, which has been selling out for weeks now. While I’m happy that so many people want to see August Wilson’s new piece on Broadway, I’m selfishly mad that I couldn’t get in and digital lottery tickets were snatched up the minute they went on sale. But kudos to you, New York theatergoers, for proving yet again that a show featuring actors of color can be a commercial success!
