No one's denying the strong work on stage, but the social media content (driven by the show's creator) has been completely undermining the satire, and incinerating any good faith the show might have built.

And Slam Frank has decided to steer into the skid.

For the good of the show, someone needs to take away Andrew Fox's phone.

The performances are great across the board (Joshua Henry is one of the best things to happen to musical theatre in a long time), but I'm really disappointed in how the orchestra sounds. It sounds so much thinner and reedier compared to the original cast album, even though I'm pretty sure it's the same instrumentation.

I like the idea of doing the show as a gay love story, but something feels deeply wrong about doing The Fantasticks in a Broadway house. It's a show meant to be done with 2 musicians and a box of props in a playing space the size of a living room.

The Oracle commented on the lawsuit.

 

May no one ever come for me as ferociously as Sweaty came for Kevin Lynch.

Very happy to hear he's recovering.

I used to watch him on YouTube. He's a very talented musician, and some of his videos were pretty funny before he started trying to become the Ben Shapiro of Broadway. It's a shame he decided to throw that all away to become a provocateur.

Kad said: "It's certainly odd that he's leaving abruptly mid-season, particularly when he's the breakout star from the last several years. I know he was rumored to have been approached for Oh Mary but turned it down- I certainly wouldn't be surprised if he ended up doing it at some point."

It's uncommon, but not unheard of. Both Cecily Strong and Seth Meyers left the show mid-season.

I thought the same thing. After the week we've had, I don't think my heart could have taken it.

Loved Patrick Ball on The Pitt, excited he's getting more work.

It's still live when I checked

I sent this message to Kampfire, their PR firm. Will update if I get a response.

Is Jason Gotay Asian? He could be a great Oliver.

I saw Midnight in The Garden in Chicago, and while it certainly wasn't perfect (there are some serious plotting issues with Act 1), it felt like something that had a path to Broadway. For all that JRB had to say about this being a Taylor Mac show, and wanting to lean into Taylor Mac's style, it felt like one of JRB's more accessible shows.

From Google:

Japan can hold you for up to 23 days without a charge, during which time they'll try to force a confession. They can interrogate you without a lawyer present, and their conviction rate is 99%.

I don't know what the odds are that he'll actually spend the next 7 years in Japanese prison, but he is most likely cooked.

Yes. Just more AI clickbait. For one, Brits don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, so there’s that."

and the part about being "under a Petri dish" since she was a teenager. Cynthia Erivo didn't make her acting debut until she was 23.

As people in the replies have said, what probably happened was that a ghostwriter was hired to write the book, and the ghostwriter asked a chatbot for things Erivo said about body image in interviews, and it grabbed something by Grande by mistake.

The fact that something this lazy, cynical, and obvious went through multiple levels of copy-editing and fact-checking, and ended up printed on the page is deeply hilarious.
