Con Girl

Cons are a relatively new thing in the world of geekdom.  I mean, they've always been around, but they've gotten HUGE in the last few years.  Some television shows have their very own cons.  Then, there is the insanity revolving around ComicCon.  Basically, there's all sorts of fun to be had at cons.  It was only a matter of time before the theatre got in on the goods.  

Enter, BroadwayCon of 2016.  I was skeptical about it at first.  I mean, Broadway people are crazy busy - 8 shows a week certainly takes its toll.  And, honestly, would a bunch of theatre people really want to join with other theatre people, dress up like characters from musicals, and geek out over how amazing Broadway is?  In short, the answer was yes.  Based on what I've read and what I stalked on Twitter, it was a resounding success.  So of course, I really needed to see it for myself, which is why I added it to my 29 + 3 year bucket list.  

Luckily, they were smart and released WAY more tickets than last year and I'm pretty quick at the computer.  Woohoo!  Of course I have to wait 9 more months until I get to have all the fun.  Also, seeing as the event was very nearly snowed out this year, I'm fairly worried, that the blizzard of the century will ruin my weekend.  Of course, being snowed in, in a beautiful city on vacation can never be a bad thing...
