Good morning, Brew Daily Show. I'm Neil Freiman. And I'm Toby Howell. Today, tariffs go heavy metal as the U.S. hits trading partners with a 25% steel and aluminum tax.
Then remember when bags flew free on Southwest? Well, now it's bags fly for a fee. Yep, free baggage is gonzo. It's Wednesday, March 12th. Let's ride.
A hot new play is setting fire to Broadway. Well, it's actually a very old play. Shakespeare's Othello, starring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal, brought in $2.8 million last week over eight performances, making it the highest weekly gross for a Broadway play in history.
The average ticket price was $338, but hearing Denzel recite, excellent wretch, perdition, catch my soul, but I do love thee, and when I love thee not, chaos is come again. Seems worth it.
Watch out, Denzel. That was well done. Very expensive ticket prices. I mean, you mentioned the average ticket price, but you can get tickets upwards of $800 to see these two on stage. There's a lot of movie star action on Broadway right now and also coming down the pipeline. This spring, you can come see a picture of Dorian Gray starring Sarah Snook, a.k.a. Shiv from Succession.
Maybe Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross starring Kieran Culkin, Bob Odenkirk, and Bill Burr.
I have tickets to that. All right, that is your thing. That looks amazing.
