"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

Biltmore/Friedman is owned by MTC and will house The American Plan and Accent on Youth.

The O'Neill has a show, but not the one I thought previously.

Word is that THE 33 VARIATIONS may be eyeing The Jacobs.

Isn't FELA! rumored for The O'Neill?

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Some of the posters here actually work in the field, others have friends in high places, others are performers themselves...
