TERF - Joshua Kaplan-penned play about JK Rowling to premiere at Edinburgh Fringe
 Jul 11 2024, 07:40:48 PM

Kad said: "If the author's note is any indication of what the quality of the play will be, then... oof."

Protesters at Suffs tonight
 Jul 3 2024, 05:34:31 PM

The points they make are solid, but I don't understand people protesting Broadway.  People stop seeing Suffs and...racism is solved!  Broadway is so niche at this point they might as well be protesting the Citrus Golf Trail Ladies Invitational.

TAMMY FAYE will transfer to Broadway in 2024-2025 Season
 Jun 29 2024, 09:29:32 AM

Question for those who saw it in London:  How big is this show?  Could it financially survive with no stars like Fun Home or Kimberly Akimbo?

It's not about the impossible bar of "historical accuracy", it's about being truthful to a very specific time and place in American history.  I can't tell you how many TV shows I've seen where actors of color play characters that move through historically racially fraught spaces with no mention of what a real person of color would experience in that situation.  Perhaps TV, where lazy anachronism is rife (Amazon's excellent Shogun series almost had me th

I'm with him for most of the op-ed, although in typical NYTimes fashion, it's sort of milquetoast and meanders to a non-ending.

The push for colorblind/inclusive casting is admirable and, when done well, brilliant. However, it's becoming studied, disingenuous and sometimes comes across as the casting version of that old, delusional liberal chestnut "I don't see color."
