Originally announced as part of the 2019/20 season, the production was initially delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the intervening three years, we’ve worked

I was there last night and liked it, but didn't love it - and I went in wanting to love it, so I can't help but feel a bit let down. I don't have much to add that hasn't been said here already, but here are a few thoughts.

The omission of the factory whistle is a huge, huge misstep. I missed it at so many points throughout the night - at the very top of the show, throughout "City on Fire," during many of the killings. It does so much to help set the tone of th

I saw my final performance of the year this past Thursday; I was lucky enough to see 49 shows throughout the year. Looking back, here are some of my favorites of 2022 (in no particular order):

The Minutes (Broadway)

Cost of Living (Broadway)
