Playbill: RENT Will Get a Majority Neurodiverse, Disabled Revival Off-Broadway
Apr 18 2026, 05:57:20 AM
And look at who started this thread...
I've clicked on Instagram links posted by "malcs98", and because I'm not signed into my own Instagram account, and it's shared from their own, it has the pop-up "Join malcs_creative on Instagram..." Very interesting.

By the way, is this the first time some folks have seena Sardi's portrait? These drawings seldom look like their subjects. It's not just Lea."
I've seen them before and I know they have neither been very similar nor proper caricatures for quite some time now. But Lea's is literally more similar to Idina than to herself. Whoever drew it must have realized that.

New musical UNORTHODOX from Pasek and Taub to premiere at The Huntington during 26-27 season
Apr 16 2026, 10:20:29 PM
Pasek, and Harmon, and Taub -- oh my!
I'm curious of which style -- or styles -- Pasek will use in his music. But quite an intriguing team they've assembled, along with Fein directing.

Play Esq. said: "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."
Play Esq, dahling -- I think your reading of my original message comes from one of the big issues I have with a lot of written communication -- the lack of tone and inflection. My apologies in advance, but I

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 waysto make your point."

Anything could...I just wouldn't want to see Herbie in the obligatory ending tableau in just his undies.

CATS: THE JELLICLE BALL Review - 1 Minute Critic
Apr 11 2026, 06:09:40 AM
Yes but...hasn't that always been the case? ALW has always been the more mainstream, popular creator when compared to Sondheim -- especially in a commercial aspect. And so much of this "reevaluation" of ALW's work stems from pretty radical reinterpretations of his work -- and his work itself has barely been altered. It's the production around it that has changed, and hit a nerve with the times. I don't think anyone is seriously analyzing the scores with new eyes -- a

Any opportunity to watch JRB tickle the ivories live is always a special experience -- and I'm thrilled about the upcoming recording. But I really hope they don't use the current, super awkward photo of the two as their album cover...

Interesting to note that Mexodus is included in Atlanta's Alliance Theatre 2026/2027 season! It doesn't specify if it's an in-house presentation or part of a tour. But I'm super interested in seeing this.

What Show is David Eggers Talking About?

darquegk said: "Also, it took me a minute to realize David Eggers was not Robert Eggers, and I was trying to conceive of a Robert Eggers Brigadoon..."
💯!!! For a minute, all I could picture was:
"From the Director of The VVitch, The Lighthouse, and Nosferatu...comes Brigadoon."

So wait...with all this praise for Luke Evans, we were wrong to completely damn a performance and performer based on a 20-second clip of a music rehearsal, before he had even gone on once?!

"Follies" coming to DC

I would say Signature Theatre and Shakespeare Theatre Company are more than just mere "regional theaters" -- they routinely produce top-notch shows, with top-notch talent. This very well may get me up there for a weekend!

I had a similar odd experience last week -- when I clicked on "View Sent Messages" I was looking at someone else's sent messages! I couldn't read them, but I definitely wasn't in my own account at that time. It resolved after a couple of days, but didn't give me a good feeling.
