J.K. Rowling uses Harry Potter wealth to fund anti-transgender organization
 Jun 3 2025, 01:40:16 PM

There should be an open letter from the theater community demanding that any actor who has been in Cursed Child be disinvited from any industry event due to their support of Rowling.

LuPone on McDonald

Assuming you're referencing me here. No, it's not elitist to call out the fact that this letter purports to be "From the Broadway Theater Community" and many of the signatories ha

I wonder how many of them even have a Broadway credit. Courtney Love certainly doesn't.

And referencing Dan Snyder's behavior in the workplace or Will Smith's physical violence is absolutely not the same as an individual being rude in an interview.

Truly ridiculous. Sounds cliche, but this is cancel culture at its absolute worst.
"

And it's clear that the demand of "Individuals, including Patti Lupone, who use their platform to publicly demean, harass, or disparage fellow artists— particularly with racial, gendered, or otherwise violent language—should not be welcomed at industry events, including the Tony Awards, fundraisers, and public programs." doesn't apply to all of those people in the Broadway "community" who publicly demeaned, harassed, and disparaged Laura Osnes, Bailey Hanks, Clifton Duncan, and Chad Kimball. 


Trump takeover of Kennedy Center
 May 30 2025, 12:12:54 PM

For many of those who have been complaining about the Trump takeover at the Kennedy Center, I think it's appropriate that we at least applaud Grenell's firing of Floyd Brown for his anti-LGBT rhetoric. Perhaps the "new" Kennedy Center won't be as bad as some have speculated.


Les MIs tour cast to Boycott Trump performance
 May 8 2025, 01:37:39 PM

It's important to remember this is not a command performance for the President. It's not a political event. It's a single performance of a national tour that the President just happens to be attending. The vast majority of people at the performance besides the President and his entourage will have voted against him. I would say absolutely the actors should boycott a performance in the White House or performing at a rally, but that's not what this is.


Trumpers on Broadway

If you really want to know in the most verified concrete manner, you're free to download the list of all of Trump's donors from the FEC website. It includes employer & occupation information and you can search for specific names / industries.


Trump Wants to Host Awards, include businessmen and politicians as winners

MasterThespian 2 said: "Agree. He only wants to break it down and sell it for parts…just like he’s doing to the country. He’s never attended a cultural event in his life. He’s strictly MMA and pro wrestling. He’s as tacky and uncultured as a person can be—perfect for America in 2025."

I hate Trump as much as anybody, but the assertion that "he's never attended a cultural event in his life" is patently false. He regul


Bedwetter Broadway Transfer?

spicemonkey said: "I certainly hope not. This show has nothing new. The messages it sends out are something I’ve heard / seen millions of times."

Really? What are the other musicals that attempt to reduce the stigma of bedwetting? As someone who struggled with that throughout childhood and adolescence this show was one of the first times I heard it being talked about in a way that gave comfort and identification. This is as revolutionary and necessary for kids


Modern directors with the best track record of “discovering” talent
 Feb 17 2025, 10:50:59 AM

I think Jeremy Sams has to be under consideration if only for the cast of 13 including Ariana, Liz, and Allie. But he also did Noises Off which was huge for TR Knight and Amour which was Christopher Fitzgerald's Broadway debut, 


Missing Michael Riedel

I appreciated that he really did love theatre, even as he reveled in the gossip. When he left, he took the last reporting that wasn't afraid to be critical. Yes, he went too far when he a delicious bit he could run with (Bernadette's attendance record in Gypsy) but more often than not, I found him to beaccurate i


Donald Trump Takes Over the Kennedy Center

Well I imagine this means they’ll be scheduling a production of Evita (his favorite musical) and we might finally see that musical adaptation of The Apprentice the Weisslers announced a long time ago. 


The Outsiders Tour Contract - Where is the outrage?
 Jan 23 2025, 03:10:04 PM

If actors feel that a tour isn't paying them enough for the work they're doing they're free to turn down the job. It's a producer's job to maximize revenue returned to their investors and part of that is keeping costs as low as possible. Actors have the fuzzy end of the supply & demand lollipop which makes low wages possible.


Boy George Returning To Moulin Rouge…Why ???

The ratio of tickets sold to cost to hire must have been favorable enough for producers to want to do it again.

Broadway’s Sexiest Man Alive

Oh remember the days of the Mr. Broadway competition which ended up getting sued by that guy who trademarked that as a descriptor of himself? It's why I still won't subscribe to BroadwayHD


Nicole Scherzinger
 Nov 8 2024, 03:58:43 PM

Hey Mods... So if Nicole's publicly available political likes and such are fair game for such conversation can I post every Trump / GOP supporting person in the industry's political donation history? Trust me there's a lot!

Oh come on. 1) Change.org petitions don't do anything ever. 2) Everyone has the right to vote and campaign for the candidate they want, 3) this is just childish

And you can even see it on a Tuesday night where you'll be supporting Mandy Gonzalez AND Tom in his boxer briefs. And producers might see demand increased on those nights, and the moment having Nicole Make "Jesus" Great Again Scherzinger in the cast harms their wallets but
