Dance of Death. We haven’t had a revival in ages and what perfect parts for these two.

^ I believe the Sher (remarkable, revelatory) was LCT so selling of tickets was less of an issue. God, I’d see that agin in a New York minute. Maybe my top play revival of all time.

Thank you! This would be heaven on earth 🙏 and anyone who saw Julia on stage knows: never ever again!

No one is bashing the show: they're just saying there is little buzz about it. I'd say the Tony nominations solidified that opinion. As I said earlier in this thread: it's a fine revival, just not great. I have no clue how well this is selling, but generalizing here, I&#

Was curious as well…probably would have gone out of pure curiosity had she been in it.
Not sure if it’s still open, but Windfall at Steppenwolf was an epic mess and to be avoided.

Considering how bad the **** Cat Dolls tour is selling, wouldn't be shocked if she agreed provided she was all but guaranteed a Broadway offer and transfer.

Finally saw a production of Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, at the Goodman no less, and damn was it worth the wait. This is my fourth production of a Wilson play at the Goodman, and I’ve never been disappointed (argue that their production of The Piano Lesson was far superior to the recent Broadway revival), and this production added to the list of damn near perfect Wilson revivals.
Al’Jaleel McGhee is rightly getting much of the well deserved accolades, but&

Seaview Planning Cat on a Hot Tin Roof Broadway Revival Directed by Sam Gold
Apr 21 2026, 01:41:59 PM
Jordan Catalano said: "I can’t imagine Gold would agree to do this play unless he has a “vision” for it and that terrifies me. After Rebecca Frecknall’s ridiculous production at the Almeida in 2024, the most radical thing a director could do is to just give us a good version of the play - no gimmicks in casting or set design. Just give us a good Tennessee Williams revival."
While I agree with this sentiment, a thoughtful reimagining of William

Sergio Trujillo to direct Broadway revival of DAMN YANKEES for Spring 2027l

But sure, next time I'll be sure to say "If I could please direct your attention to the EPA notice...""
Why thank you. That would be much more polite. I appreciate your attention to civility moving forward.

If you read the EPA notice, offers are out for the majority of the leads -- I'd assume they're ironing out the details to transfer the cast."
Don’t be an asshole: some of us don’t know what EPA notices are, much less read them when they’re linked to a story. There are so many less rude ways to make your point.

"La Cage" at City Center

….not for this cast.
Also, considering how much this is produced regionally (I recall a really good production in the Berkshires a couple of years ago), is there really much interest?

This was an exceptional production of a very good musical, but it’s gonna need a star to succeed. Donica was excellent in DC, would love to see him come in with the production.

Why no Nick Jonas L5Y album... JRB answers...

I swear, am I the only one her who actually liked that production? It had a lot of flaws (mostly in direction) but Adrienne was great and Joe…had some very very good moments!
With that said, I’m glad we’re getting this pairing recorded. Zegler was glorious and Ben…had some very very good moments!

Paddington at the Al Hirschfeld
Apr 13 2026, 09:32:46 PM
If she says it’s coming in, it’s coming in.
Look, this show may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s damn entertaining and visually stunning. Thanks to many of you expressing your excitement, even before the first preview, I risked one of my London Christmas slots. It was so incredibly worth it: I have no shame in admitting that I had streams of joy cascading down my face throughout.
Paddington is not just some person in a b

Easily my least favorite ITW production. While it’s a better musical, Evita was a much better production.

Surprised there wasn’t a post for this…happy to see a landslide for Paddington and a win for Zegler’s Evita! Hopefully we see both productions in the next season!

Saw this yesterday. I consider it my favorite of all Wilson’s plays and saw the Sher production at least 5 times. This production is very very good…not great. The performances are all well formed, a great ensemble indeed. It did reinforce that this is an ensemble piece, so the fact that there are two big name leads makes the appeal factor less relevant (but, they were indeed, quite good!).
What the production lacks is the magical realism of the
