Saturday July 14th marked the 15th annual Broadway Barks!, a star-studded pet adoption event benefiting NYC animal shelters and adoption agencies. Hosted by Bernadette Peters and Harvey Fierstein and produced by Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, the event spilled out of Schubert Alley onto 45th street, drawing the likes of Sigourney Weaver, Jane Lynch, David Hyde Pierce and other stars from this season's hottest Broadway shows along with theater geeks and animal lovers hoping to catch a glimpse of them. Starting ninety minutes late, my camera battery and my patience were both running out by the end of the event thanks to a lady next to me who kept going on and on about every Broadway, regional, high school or America's Got Talent version of any show she'd ever seen in her entire life to this poor wide-eyed kid, fresh from the farm, who kept looking at me with pleading eyes because he didn't know how to tell her to shut the fuck up!
