Laughter is good medicine.
Good Sci-Fi & Fantasy makes my PN go away, too.
(if I'm not stuck in too small, cramped seats -
give me these new luxurious multi-plex relax,
tilt-back, plenty of leg room, & cup holder seats).
And a cash bar is something we never had in the movies
when I was a youngster. There's even one 'art' cinema near me, that has a 'Tapas' room entrance in the lobby. Gourmet Dinner, drinks & a movie - in one stop.

When I go to a Broadway show, its a labor of love, to sit in jammed-in seats at $150^ a pop (I pay 1/2 to 1/3 price- on one-day, discount, junkets).
But I simply love a Broadway show, musicals especially,
but a good drama or mystery will have me in another world, too.
Guess I'm an escapist at heart.
