To be fair, he does hedge his bets quite a bit on a number of these predictions, including with Burstein. 

Until we get the fairly reliable NYTimes survey of Tony voters, everything is just sort of based on vibes. 

It says a lot about a regional theater when top-level NYC-area talent regularly goes to work there. DC is just a great theater city, regardless. 

Kind of surprising, considering the rights were just released last November so it's being widely produced nationwide. 

Brunson is a great choice for this, to be honest.

ok that's funny!"

Lane's quick wit is always so razor sharp and impressive. It managed to both acknowledge and defuse the moment and let him move on.

I think the most likely scenario is that in the likely event of Salesman winning, Rudin will take the stage but not speak. 

Another project that’s been kicking around for an absurd amount of time (apparently since 2010?!). These zombie shows need to stay dead. 

Glad you worked out a schedule that wouldn't stress you out! Hope you enjoy everything! 

I agree in re: Kail, but he wasn't attached to the recent workshop nor was he named in that Broadway Journal piece. Jenny Koons is the attached director. 

Don't really love the design in those production photos- it has a sort of austere, cold quality.  Not a lot of that bohemian or grunge feel at all. While we shouldn't be pining for a duplicate of the original production, I do think the vibrant eclecticism is needed. Everything here looks ready for a Vanity Fair photoshoot. 

If only they had kids who wanted to be on Broadway, maybe they could've been up for hosting the main show. 

The Newman is a deceptively large and well-equipped space that has housed larger technical productions than Hamilton. I doubt it limited Hamilton in any real way- its design makes perfect sense for the production and material. 

I was surprised that it recouped faster than Every Brilliant Thing and cost slightly less to capitalize. 

It certainly has the ingredients of an event and I imagine investors will be falling over themselves to get in on it.

It was rumored but never announced. 

This really will go down as an example of bafflingly inept producing. Just poor judgment all around. 

I have high hopes for this and I’m glad ART has given an artist like Malloy and his collaborators the space and resources for larger scale works. How I wish his Moby Dick that was produced there was seen by more people- it was truly a one of kind piece of genius. 

The link doesn't work- it looks like http is included twice. The link embedder automatically includes http so you don't need to include it in the url when you paste it in.

I mean, it's air conditioned and they get pay and another benefit week.
