Broadway Remembers 9/11?

The Broadway musical Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark placed this ad on the cover of the New York Times on the 

weekend of the terrorist attacks. 

Perhaps they had good intentions, 

but I wouldn't consider this type of promotion "rising above."

Here are some similar ads from current and past shows

that were rejected as being "tasteless"

Wicked Swag

In addition to T-shirts, towels, hoodies, pajama sets, yoga pants, mugs, golf balls, wands, pins, umbrellas, glasses, keychains, water bottles, necklaces, charms and condoms, the international smash WICKED is now selling "Wicked Cars" ...

But, does it fly?

Kristin Celebrates Gay Pride!

Ms. Chenoweth shows the world how much she supports the gays ... and her flexibility, on Live with Regis & Kelly.

You go girl!

How Very Green

The folks behind the smash Broadway musical "Wicked" pride themselves on their wonderful commitment to the environment by placing ads on "green" buses, selling eco-friendly T-shirts, and doing "green" events around the country.

Why, oh why then, did they hire a small plane to buzz around the quiet beaches of Fire Island this past weekend to advertise the popular show? Certainly, there's alot of fuel being wasted on that little plane.

And quite frankly, the folks trying to enjoy some quiet time at the very gay beach certainly already know about the show; most have already memorized the entire cast album!

Green my ass.
