loved this show, glad it is returning mcctheater.org/cold-war-cho...

A few fave quotes from new pieces of mine. First, on NYU Skirball (so hot right now) for TDF Stages: www.tdf.org/on-stage/tdf...

Disney has Tron: Ares, Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere, Rental Family, Zootopia 2, Ella McCay, Avatar: Fire and Ash, and Is This Thing On? opening this year. I hope the talent involved in these movies curtails all planned publicity until the company reverses its decision about Kimmel.

alright let's pack it up www.theatermania.com/news/taika-w...

My latest for The Brooklyn Rail: talkin’ Tennessee Williams, THE WHOLE OF TIME and weighty legacies with Tony Torn brooklynrail.org/2025/09/thea...

Featured in the "Finding Beauty" series, Robert writes about the loss experienced when trees — young & old, small & large — are felled in a prison yard. The work reminds us of the meaning each of us can make, & the harm any of us can do, as we choose to honor or ignore what is precious around us.

Today, the New York Times published this exceptional opinion piece by Robert Lee Williams. Incarcerated at Eastern NY Correctional Facility, Robert — in addition to his work as an essayist — is a full-time Bard student enrolled through BPI.

Four journalists were killed by an Israeli strike on a Gaza hospital today, including Mariam Dagga, a freelancer with the @apnews.com. She has a 12-year-old son, who was evacuated from Gaza earlier in the war. She was a true hero, like all of our Palestinian colleagues in Gaza. tinyurl.com/3cn5c9vb

My @nytimes.com piece on ARBORLOGUES at the cell theater is looking cute in print today. Read it here! www.nytimes.com/2025/08/20/t...

hell yeah @joeysims.bsky.social in the new york times www.nytimes.com/2025/08/20/t...

Just gutted. www.sfchronicle.com/entertainmen...

you should

Common themes in my summer theater: Max Friedlich's THE HOLES (Powerhouse) and Jeremy O. Harris' SPIRIT OF THE PEOPLE (Williamstown) both muse on driving out rich gentrifiers through blood-soaked violence.

Good @naveenkumarnyc.bsky.social column on the "Maybe Happy Ending" recasting www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

MAYBE HAPPY ENDING now pivoting a problem entirely of their own making to, “So important we have this conversation”…you are not serious people

"When there was a role that was originated by somebody in our community...that's a big win for us, because of the scarcity that we live in." I report on the AAPI Broadway community's disappointment in the recent Maybe Happy Ending casting decision

Green not going out quietly....the contempt for Jeremy O. Harris here feels outsized (have Meadow, Haimes etc ever felt such wrath?) but perhaps correct on the results. Or a reaction to sensing a gentler criticism moving in? www.nytimes.com/2025/07/24/t...

*Jesse Green in vertical frame pointing at a tiny picture of MERRILY* “look, Sondheim was lowkey goated and we need to talk about it”

It's my birthday so of course I wrote a story about a dog. Specifically about Krypto in Superman, a bad boy who is also a good boy, who was inspired by @jamesgunn.bsky.social's Ozu. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/11/m...

As Chris Jones’ reporting affirms, Rudin’s comeback is only possible because big names—in this case, Metcalf & Mantello—lamely insist on his involvement.

When Garth Drabinsky returned and promised to “be good this time,” things went predictably. I expect the same result here. People don’t change.

never thought i'd see the day www.nytimes.com/2025/06/26/t...

first of many failed promises…smh

Went back to SUNSET tonight. Tom Francis did the walk in a tank top, nips out. 100 degree weather. I was levitating out of my seat

Immersive Phantom is “bring your own mask?” yeah we’re in a recession

Thoughts on PRINCE FAGGOT, a mostly frustrating work www.theatrely.com/post/power-p...

A better show than MHE, but so very (wonderfully) dark, and never found the same awards narrative. Blows

need to see Little Shop again to catch Graham Phillips (hot) and Reg Rogers as Mr. Mushnik (HOT!!!)

I wish “Real Women Have Curves” had been able to find a Broadway audience. It has such a delicate balance to strike: joy and resilience on one side, fear and trauma on the other. And at a time when onstage stories of immigration and Americanness land so, so viscerally.

Celine Song presenting her own play TOM & ELIZA, a good play that I saw, as laughably bad in MATERIALISTS…way too much to unpack

Watched four cops take a young couple off an F train & write them a ticket for…holding a can of Mike’s Hard. Never felt safer

really good season www.classicstage.org/our-2025-26-...

jaw-droppingly awful second act; needed months of work/multiple characters excised. Brooks Ashmanskas innocent tho

Conrad Ricamora’s Tony campaigning has been spent 95% nipples-out, and I respect it.

The cowardly Tonys refuse to acknowledge that one could, in fact, see Boop

Speaking as a Drama Desk voter, I simply couldn’t condone Tom’s “Sodascout” antics and voted accordingly

Adams signed off on this. Cuomo would too. We have a primary in a few weeks, NYC. Let’s show up.

but like there is a very real chance of the Tonys going (to see) Boop!

Thoughts on Nazareth Hassan’s BOWL EP, an explosive jolt of life that only loses its way towards the end www.theatrely.com/post/bowl-ep...

the awful Patti lip-sync TikToker has thrown in the towel...oh it's OVER over www.tiktok.com/@seany_mac_o...

Great, great piece about Strouse writing an abandoned STAR WARS musical www.americantheatre.org/2025/05/22/c...

Kenny Leon is here to put another bunch of $500+ ticket buyers to sleep www.nytimes.com/2025/05/21/t...

Green predicting DEATH BECOMES HER win…a chill went down my spine

Round-up of some off-Broadway thoughts - including a rave for Kallan Dana's superb LOBSTER, at The Tank thru Sat www.theatrely.com/post/what-i-...

Sadness. Just sadness. The kind that hits you in waves. The initial shock. The multiplying implications. The looking through old show photos to tally one fabulous production after another. On Aurora Theatre Company's decision to suspend its season in 2025-26: www.sfchronicle.com/entertainmen...

Wrecked by that final shot of ANDOR. An unbelievable final touch, devastatingly perfect.

The crowd won't let him leave, so Newark Mayor Ras Baraka gets out and starts walking with the people for the crowd to finally start clearing.

Unfortunate that a review referencing “cheap tickets” links to a site offering $200 and up www.nytimes.com/2025/05/08/t...

In UTOPIAN HOTLINE, Brooklyn-based Theater Mitu created a show for the Charles Hayden Planetarium at the Museum of Science, Boston (among other partners), producing what writer @joeysims.bsky.social calls a "dreamlike meditation on unanswerable questions." www.americantheatre.org/2025/05/07/u...

For @americantheatre.org, I took a trip to the stars with Theater Mitu’s UTOPIAN HOTLINE, a dreamlike meditation on unanswerable questions. www.americantheatre.org/2025/05/07/u...
