Lights, Camera, Action!

Happy Thursday! As we settle back in after some downtime over spring break, we dive into Clairo's short but influential time at Syracuse University where she worked to bring bedroom pop to the mainstream. Campus sports made headlines following a series of huge contracts, wins, and awards. Pageant season is in full swing as we look at this year's Pride Union Drag Show and Miss Central New York's winner. Check out the latest Reel Talk podcast as we approach the Academy Awards. If you're like us and have been dying to see Hamilton live, read our review of one of Broadway's biggest shows currently playing at The Landmark.
