Super stoked Vogel is getting her long awaited Broadway debut. And, sure, it may not seem very commercial, but given the success of The Humans, commercial theater seems to be changing. I mean, I'd say Hamilton and Curious Incident are all very intellectual and were successful. Maybe the tides are changing? I'm sure this will be an uphill battle, but if they open right before the Tonys, and have enough cash to keep them running through the Tonys, they might stand a great chance. I don't see Significant Other taking the Tony at all.
Fantastic news. A worthy addition to a season that's light on new plays- and the fact that this will be Vogel's Broadway debut is somewhat mind boggling.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."
Here's hoping that the transfer the extraordinary cast from the Vineyard production intact.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
