The Unknown - Off Broadway

We see it next month, I’m pretty excited (minus the actual theater, which I loathe).

Yeah, it's kind of telling that when Seaview took over, they redid the bar and created a VIP lounge but left the actual theater with its dingy seats untouched. 


Trump takeover of DC

It's an assumption given what he's done to the East Wing and the country. 


NYC Theater and Broadway Figures found in Epstein Schedules & Correspondences
 Feb 2 2026, 11:14:02 AM

Epstein was a monster of historic scope and I think everyone who knew of, enabled, and participated in his crimes should be exposed and punished.

That being said- he was also an enormously wealthy and well-connected socialite, so of course he had innumerable interactions with notable people, most of them innocuous. I really don't think listing every single person who had a documented interaction with him is particularly helpful. 


Theatre supplies 'mental health first aiders' for audience members upset by harrowing play
 Feb 2 2026, 09:26:49 AM

Movie ratings can be silly or arbitrary, but they’re also more generalized for a wide audience. There are smaller, independent movie rating groups that are even more focused and strict on content and tailored to specific audience groups (ie religious groups, people more sensitive to the wellbeing of animals, etc). Any information or accommodation for audiences is fine with me, as long as it does not impede either my viewing or the creation of art. It’s like providing ingredie


Trump takeover of DC
 Feb 1 2026, 08:40:19 PM

While the KC was bleeding audiences and artists faster than one of Sweeney Todd's victims, after what became of the East Wing, I am extremely wary of any of Trump's "renovations." 

Trump and co's insistence that the Kennedy Center was dilapidated, poorly maintained, and in need of major work is one of the weirder lies the administration has foisted upon the public.

That photo that was shared of Rivera upthread was when he bulked up quite a bit to play Aaron Hernandez. 


Billy Porter on Nicki Minaj

CoffeeBreak said: "Billy has said his own mess. It's cut and dry to you."

It’s only not cut and dry if you’re either somebody who supports Trump or knows absolutely nothing about Minaj and her actions in recent months. 


Billy Porter on Nicki Minaj
 Feb 1 2026, 11:26:53 AM

Minaj is now a full-throated MAGA defender while Porter is just merely annoying, so kinda think the issue of who is worse is cut and dry. 


Catherine O'Hara has passed away at 71
 Jan 31 2026, 03:58:37 PM

This is the most devastating celebrity death for me since maybe Carrie Fisher. O’Hara seemed like somebody who had another two decades left of inedible work ahead of her and she was enjoying such a remarkable career high in recent years. We are so fortunate to have so many incredible and iconic performances as her legacy. 


What happened to Julie Taymor?

I mean her resume is basically The Lion King. How much re-examination can there be? How much of her work has been filmed so that it can be re-evaluated?
"

I mean this less in the sense of her being canonized and more looking at how she was publicly raked across the coals and

Liza Minnelli, AI project
 Jan 30 2026, 06:14:47 PM

AI can create a facsimile of how Judy Garland might sing "Another Winter in a Summer Town" and it would likely be pretty convincing to most people, but we would never know how she would actually do it. She would be drawing on her lifetime of experiences, most of which will never be known to anybody. An AI could take in every piece of writing about her, every recorded performance and interview, and would never know her or match her interior life. Just as Jinkx Monsoon c


Maya Rudolph Next in Oh, Mary!?
 Jan 29 2026, 01:27:07 PM

Colbert strikes me as being much more of a Lincoln- and he'd be pretty brilliant one, at that. 


Liza Minnelli, AI project
 Jan 29 2026, 01:23:03 PM

It's pretty clear Liza is not running her social media and the recent posts/statements on there are really not what we'd expect from her. It's becoming disconcerting.  


Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 1/25/26
 Jan 29 2026, 01:19:13 PM

Those attendance figures that are showing -100% etc are clearly an error (looks like some are total attendance percentage rather than difference in attendance percentage)  and not reflected in the actual table.

I'm a big fan of the show and my initial reaction to the cast line up is that it looks pretty stellar. For me, in terms of vibes it's through the roof... As long as everybody is up to the task vocally, I think we're in for a real treat."

I don't doubt the cast is capable, it's just not overly unique. This same cast could also easily d


Spelling Bee - Celeb Spellers?
 Jan 29 2026, 10:38:22 AM

They put teasers up on their Instagram but generally these appearances are hard to publicize because they’re often confirmed last minute or, just as often, fall through at the last minute.

Yeah, both she and Columbia are almost glorified cameos- though Columbia has slightly more to do with her involvement with Eddie.

This is a pretty delightful cast. Certainly very varied in backgrounds but all delightful and idiosyncratic. Luke Evans is the most conventional one there.

Yes, Andrew Durand just posted an IG story that more or less confirms he’s Brad.
