Profile for Alex Kulak2

Speak for yourself, I see Anthony Rapp and I'm sat.

In addition to the stage work, he was also the Oscar-winning co-writer of Manhattan and Annie Hall. What a career.

Lanie J said: "I'd love to see Cecily Strong on Broadway someday. I think she would have been an excellent choice to lead Once Upon A Mattress."

If they do a return engagement after LA (haven't heard anything of the sort, just dreaming), I hope they give Cecily a call

binau said: "John kander was in the audience tonight and bebe neuwirth introduced him at the end. He then came on stage and gave a speech as well as raved about Adam Lambert and was given a special Olivier award. Love these little New York theatre moments. Very special to be there."

Just saw the video of his speech. It blows my mind every time how he's still so sharp and so full of life at NINETY-SEVEN years old. We are so blessed to have John Kander.

Offering a hundred bucks to whoever can successfully explain non-binary people to the Tony Eligibility Committee.

The worst part is that, given the state of the Supreme Court, he's got a shot.

Best case scenario: public funding for the arts will continue to be a pittance.

The house was on fire, JRB clapped lightly."



Did you see any of the show? Or did you just stare at JRB the entire 3 hours?

I can't judge, I would have done the same

I ask this question in all sincerity and good faith, in search of a genuine answer:

What would we lose if The Broadway League ceased to exist? What service or value do they provide to theatre artists or audiences? Because it seems like every time they're in the news, it's for cocking something up.

Kokandy always puts on really strong, interesting work. Their American Psycho was what finally changed my mind about that show. I will definitely be checking this out before they close.

I am begging Robert Zemeckis to make another good movie.

MrsSallyAdams said: "Neil Patrick Harris is the age and look of Arthur Less. But he's a bit too savvy and sharp for such a meek, oblivious character. The role is more of a David Hyde Pierce type, from his Curtainsera.



EDIT: Jonathan Groff could play it in about 10 years."

I heard that Gavin Creel had done some readings prior to his passing.

At his Carnegie Hall concert on October 25, Jason Robert Brown announced that his newest project is an adaptation of Andrew Sean Greer's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel Less, in collaboration with Doug Wright, and previewed a few songs from the show.

I've never read the book before. Anyone familiar? Maybe someone was at Carnegie and heard some of the new material?

That artwork looks like AI

Kad said: "Chris Terrio is an odd choice for bookwriter. He has an Oscar for writing Argo, but since then he's only got some really bad franchise films to his name (Batman v Superman, Rise of Skywalker, Justice League)."

Not going to argue with you on the quality, but those three films collectively grossed almost $2.5 billion. That's a pretty nice number to have on a resume.

So many goodies in this album. I don't know if JRB did the arrangement himself on Franklin Shepard Inc., but this version is so fresh and jazzy, I love it.

Lin took a huge artistic risk with making this sound as un-Broadway as he did, and it really worked. There are sounds and genres in this album that I've never heard in a theatre recording before. Can't wait to listen again!
