MayAudraBlessYou2 said: "This also apparently indicates that All Out isn’t eligible? I heard a rumor they didnt invite nominators but this seems to confirm it"
They would’ve likely explicitly said if they were ineligible. I can’t imagine it will garner any awards though. It’s something that would be considered if they had a “Special Event” category.
In a year flush with great plays and revivals - ALL OUT deserves the trash b

Also, Tutty/Pitts for Leading (Musical), which sounds like a given - but they also could’ve tried to bump one of them down to Featured as category fraud (like MHE tried last year)

I just did also. Has anyone been to the church ? Me thinking it would be at Signature on 42nd"
I was there for CEREMONIES FOR DARK OLD MEN. It’s definitely an old theatre. The seats are a bit worn down (bring a butt pad) and the HVAC is hit or miss, but there isn’t a bad seat in the house to my memory. Also, there are MANY stairs to get

Rose is a young adult role. So, Leslie Grace or Melissa Barrera. Not that any of these names makes a difference, honestly."

This is what was posted officially on Playbill Vault which, to my understanding, is going to be their design, at least initially until the monthly cycle comes around and it can be changed

I saw this image floating around online yesterday and was kinda hoping it wasn’t real…and apparently it is. (Confirmed via Playbill Vault) This is probably one the most artistically confusing/baffling Playbills I’ve ever seen. Thoughts?

As someone who literally just had that surgery on my neck, can confirm. (Although I had a disc replacement and that has a much faster healing time than spinal fusion.)

I did not enjoy this. The entire thing felt stale and strangely lifeless. Yes, the material is undeniably dated, but strong direction can often make even the oldest and dustiestof shows worth reviving. That is not the case here.
Aside from the illustrious Katrina Lenk, the performances across the board were a mess. Most of the cast appeared bored out of their mi

ClydeBarrow said: "The set design was so ugly and multiple times the actors couldn't find the slit in the curtains to exit the stage. I wanted to stop having to look at it."
Yeah. What fresh hell was that set design? I wanna guess it has something to do with that water/fluid metaphor that the playwright was keen on shoving down our throats, but all I could think of was hospital curtains.
Also, see below re: Matthew Saldivar’s character.

Lead Actress in a Play 2026 Feb 15
2026, 08:14:30 AM
I think they might petition Squibb up to leading so she doesn’t compete against Nixon for Featured. Also, Taraji P. Henson might also be in the mix for JOE TURNER (based on billing).
I have such a soft spot for LBRR and Laurie, but I think Manville (deservedly) has it locked down.

I just got out and I echo the thumbs down chorus.
This was a play that said a LOT…without actually saying anything meaningful. It spends the first half of the play attempting to reconcile a gay man crashing out from alcoholism to the mental decline of his older relatives (padded with psychoblather and sitcom schtick) and, while there might have been potential in that thread of thought, it essentially abandons it by the end of the first act for a basic Lifetime movie of
