Does anyone have any information on the Broadway Production of QUILLS....specifically Rocco Sisto who played the Marquis...I can't find much google-ing...I know he founded a Shakespeare theater in Massachusetts...he was nominated for the Drama Desk for Quills...but thats all.
Any info is greatly appreciated!

QUILLS never played on Broadway. It had a limited Off-Broadway run at New York Theatre Workshop about a decade ago with Sisto, Jefferson Mays (who went on to win a Tony for I AM MY OWN WIFE several years later), Lola Pashalinski and Kirk Jackson.

They definitely carry off-Broadway. Sisto did QUILLS in Seattle and was very, very good.

I don't think the library has Quills. They only get a certain amount of money and it usually goes towards filming the Broadway shows. When off-Broadway shows are recorded, it is usually because the producers put up the money to have it recorded.

I saw Quills at NYTW. It was a very intense show and very well acted.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
