Of course he is standing by the show he directed, it’s still running.


Jeremy O Harris’ Yell at the Majestic with Lakeith Stanfield?
 Nov 13 2025, 01:04:06 PM

Was attempting to add this to my previous post but my god, this site is glitchy.
 

JOH was not the first and won’t be the last student to express concerns about their experience in higher education. JOH always took it too far. Not sure how much the script to YELL has evolved over the years, but the original version that was circulated also (allegedly) included verbatim conversations between JOH, the professor who had concerns with the SA content in Slave Play and how it

 Nov 13 2025, 12:02:20 PM

Oh here we go again. This is a (not very good) play that JOH wrote during their time in the MFA program at Yale, which was fully funded and they paid zero dollars. Could be a reading of some sort? Who knows, but the script is essentially JOH’s revenge fantasy on the dean and a member of faculty who disagreed with JOH during a rehearsal process for Slave Play it’s early stages at the school. The topic they disagreed on was related to sexual assault. One scene had the dean eati

What show(s) did she have spotty attendance post-opening? This isn’t true of Wicked, Promises, or Twentieth Century…

Categorically false.
 

Example: She was in Wicked for 9 months. Laura Bell Bundy was her original standby, and by her own


THE QUEEN OF VERSAILLES NYT review

I’m sure that NYT critic’s pick will keep this turkey open for longer than originally thought. What happens when KC starts missing shows? Her attendance gets spotty after the flash of opening night is in the rear view.

Oh, good. KC will have something to do when this closes by January.

Cannot speak to KC being over it or low energy, but I will say I am surprised she returned to the stage with an open-ended run. Maybe SRS will end up doing one or two scheduled performances each week, if the show runs long enough? Chenoweth struggles with the Broadway schedule, and with no concrete end date, well let’s just say her standby will get plenty of opportunities to perform. 


DREAMGIRLS is finally returning to Broadway

If Brown’s re-working some of the material here the way she did in AUDRAGYPSY, woof.

Responding only to the thread’s title — no, not happening. Even if the stats are eventually on Foster’s side.

It’s giving Anne Hathaway like derision for everything she says and does, which I feel started with the ill-advised Affleck celebration album/movie. And even if that project was truly terrible it feels it also cause the “she ever got her due”, und

This was supposed to be Lopez’s comeback to the Oscar conversations, but I think she’s been skunked.

Again.

THE QUEEN OF VERSAILLES with Kristin Chenoweth

The final moments of Jackie standing in the completed foyer of the house, alone is impactful. It shows that the money can't buy everything, and it reminds me of the great lyric in "Thank Goodness" from Wicked: "Because getting your dreams, it's strange but it seems a little com

That’s what I thought.

The Bandstand said: "I don’t understand how anyone can take what Chenoweth said and now think that somehow she is a maga conspiracy theorist anti woke freedom fighter. Literally, this is someone who just wants to love and be loved by everyone. It’s Kristin Chenoweth for godsake, she has a long history of supporting democrats and advocating for the queer community. This whole “controversy” is just more people wanting to be outraged by something."
