I agree. When I got the email yesterday, I scrolled through the choices several times thinking I must have misses something.

What I'm shocked at, however, is that Diane Paulus is not directing anything. Anyone that can speak to that?

I'm sure there will be interesting things and that I'll still subscribe....but maybe with a little less excitement.

Shows I'm considering:

Notes from the Field

Trans Scripts

Iguana

Arrabal

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

I was a little surprised to see nothing that plainly appears to be Broadway bound. It feels like the first time that's happened in a few years.

"a little surprised to see nothing that plainly appears to be Broadway bound"

Sometimes a breath of the freshest air whenever regional theatres make their season announcements.

Considering the shift in demographics that ART has seen since Diane Paulus has been at the helm, I don't know that their subscribers would agree. I imagine many of the newer patrons are going to be turned off by this announcement.

Iguana could lead to Broadway-caliber casting.
