This is this dude's whole MO. Outrage, outrage, outrage. Certainly a lot of things deserve our outrage these days... but I've grown suspicious of folks who just jump from one outrage to the next.
Also. If this story was this awful... why are we teasing it and not just releasing it? He's trying to drum up views not change the world.
The wording is incredibly vague. Is it a story he’s publishing? If so… prepare for a nothingburger. If it’s from a legit publication, then that’s different.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."

My guess is something he is publishing? How else would he have access to something a larger publication, like say, the Times was publishing tomorrow? This guy is always too much with the clickbait and trying to make everyone think he's an insider.

A Times exposé would have dozens of sources; you wouldn’t even need to be particularly well-connected to find out about it.

Considering his typically reporting, I’m sure this will be about a semi-professional regional production of BEAUTY & THE BEAST in South Dakota.

“A lot of heads will roll” makes it sound like a bunch of people are culpable. That phrase has me thinking along the lines of fraud or the like - as opposed to “the usual” of one person doing inappropriate things
If it is supposed to as disturbing as he is implying this is, you'd think he'd have the sensitivity to not "tease" about it like it's a show announcement. Just ugly stuff for twitter clout of all things and all the dweebs speculating about it, yikes.
Predictions: Sophia Ann Caruso actually did summon a demon during Beetlejuice, leading to her removal from the show. The demon is now understudying a supporting lead on Broadway and you’ll never guess which one!
Stephen Sondheim was straight all along, and his gay identity was an elaborate hoax he designed as part of the “immersive gaming” scenarios he and Anthony Perkins pioneered.
One of the biggest hokes in the peripheral of the industry (and I’m being kind here), but the rabid, terminally online Broadway stan with zero concept of the real world eats it up every time.
The Barbour situation is messy. The simple thing is of course not to hire him. A TALE OF TWO CITIES was produced by amateurs and it’s unlikely that many other producers would have hired him back so quickly. But we are taught that the US prison system is supposed to be a place for rehabilitation, and that the formerly incarcerated deserve a second chance. But some believe that’s only true for certain crimes — and certain races.
Some also believe that pleading guilty is the only way to atone for a crime…but that’s what Barbour did here, and it resulted in a shorter sentence.
