Also majority male.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But I saw Gats.

Have you ever heard of Gats?

I don't know if it ever came here, but it's only been in New York twice for a limited run, kind of almost 15 years apart or something.

And it is a

six hour production you go for eight hours and you have three breaks one is everything you're saying is my worst no it is amazing i am not kidding yeah this this show is maybe the best thing i've ever seen on stage oh wow and and all it is is a guy in the 80s like on an old computer that's glitching at his insurance office and because he can't work on his computer and he's bored he reaches into his desk and he pulls out the great gatsby and he starts reading it out loud

And there are office people working in his office.

And, you know, it's just a classic 80s, you know, steel file cabinets and like some sort of like window with almost like a dispatcher like person.

And.

And people, first they're like, what is he doing?

And then they sit around him occasionally and listen.

And then they slowly turn into the characters.

The guy reads the entire novel for six hours.

So you hear the entire Great Gatsby and it's acted out

I can't even tell you how clever it is in terms of theater because sometimes they're doing things just a little bit ahead of the narration.

It's just this exchange between acting and the reading that is electrifying sometimes.

I just loved it, and it made me love that book in a way that I had never experienced it before.

And yeah, there's so much in there that,

I mean, you know, I mean, I'm a big fan of reading.
