Per usual, I don't know most of the reality show or competition gamers in this cast, but thrilled to see Bianca Del Rio there. Hopefully she bucks the trend of Drag Race stars getting sent home early.

Obviously they can’t be made for a wide release or anything, but how would digitizing cause rights issues if kept within the archive and barriers currently in place?"Per the NYTimes article: "The library’s popular Theater on Film and Tape Archive will not be included in the digitization effort, [Roberta Pereira, the research library’s executive...

The main reason a lot of those more elaborate spectacles stopped appearing on stages was because they were done in ways that were unsafe or at least extremely unsustainable. We could've had the chandelier falling in the 1930s... it just may have eventually actually killed somebody.

Shocking and all the more tragic for happening on the eve of what was looking like to be a major season for him.

I think people are really starting to realize the limits of the limited run star vehicle model. There’s no guarantee for prestige, there’s no guarantee for success, and most of the time the best outcome is to just barely recoup.

What an incredible act of generosity for an incredibly worthy institution!

Bottom line is this - individuals do have freedom of speech in this country - you can say whatever you want, but the people who employ you see you as a representative of their company/show/film and if they believe what you say will have negative consequences for them financially, etc they have the right to discipline or even potentially fire/replace you. Freedom of speech does not equal freedom from cons...

Producers certainly have a right to hire whomever they like for whatever reason they like. But once somebody is employed and on contract, it is wildly inappropriate to attempt to censor them outside of the workplace as an ongoing condition of their employment. And Trimm seems to be implying she was told that a reason would be created to terminate her, which flies in the face of the conditions for termination under Equity's contracts which generally only allow termination for cause.

She is not circumventing any rules. You cannot be forced to join AEA. She will be working on an Equity contract, she will have working dues deducted and benefit trust contributions made on her behalf. She will just not, herself, be a member. Her quitting the union was extremely performative and really only saved her the twice annual membership dues, which is a negligible amount for her.

I much preferred the last key art, featuring both women with shadowed faces. These character portraits are far less dynamic and really lack style.

The fact that Sadie Sink was announced for two upcoming Marvel films should’ve killed the rumor of her involvement.

Two performers were cast from the call, Jack Bateman as Georg and Antonio Porciello as Hanschen. Two out of 11 cast members coming from an open call that saw well over 2k auditioners is pretty darn good, imo.

RUkiddingme said: "There aren't 20 comments calling for 20 shows to close immediately!?!? Is everyone ok?"Well... the shows that have generally been discussed as potential closures in the last few months have basically all announced that they are, in fact, closing in the near future.

I gasped when I saw. Another true genius and icon gone.

Here is a gift article from the NYTimes about the developmentBasically, the Trump crony-packed board is drafting a resolution ahead of a meeting on Tuesday to say that the Center is at risk of insolvency but that Trump has offered financial support to the institution... but will not do so unless he is honored in an inscription on the building. Effectively, they are attempting to hold i

Having not seen Lewis, I can't really comment on what the dynamic between her and Amber was like, but Sherie and Amber have fantastic chemistry and I often found myself watching them getting up to all sorts of weird, funny business together. They definitely were a pair in cahoots, totally in sync and feeding off each other. It's really delightful to watch.

The production did cast performers from that open call; at least two, from what I have heard. Nobody is “scorned.” They saw, what, over 1000 kids? They can’t give them all tickets or cast even 1% of them.

Unfortunately, those remakes have generally proven incredibly lucrative even if they fade immediately from cultural memory.

I mean, reception to all versions of the show hasn’t been particularly great, so it makes sense Disney would skip a potentially risky major investment on Broadway and go right to the safer bet of regional licensing. The show could be a total mess and it’ll still be produced across the country at every level.

I was there last night for Shears’ debut. It was also my first time seeing this production.Overall, I had a very fun time; the audience was super into it, lots of callbacks and lots of dressing up. The production itself is a surprisingly mixed bag. When things work, they really work, but when they don’t, the production just sort of sits there, awkwardly staged and inert. The whole production feels conceived for a much smaller house and it would probably work like gangbusters in a 200-seat dow...
