There is nothing wrong with reimagining old favorites. Especially when it opens doors instead of closing them

BroadwayCon has always felt like a love letter to theatre fans. This year, I get to be part of it — closing the weekend with a panel on writing and the voices behind how theatre is seen and remembered. Would love to see you there.

If Legally Blonde comes back to Broadway as a tour stop, it won’t be the first—and it won’t be the last. The trend is becoming harder to ignore.

Broadway could use a little joy right now. That’s why I can’t stop smiling about Titanique finally sailing in.

Some holiday traditions find you when you’re young and stay with you forever. For me, it was A Christmas Carol at MSG.

Some performances stay with you long after the curtain falls. Here are the women who played Elphaba and Glinda that live in my heart for good.

“In a year like 2025, where the difference between those two artistic tracks was on full display, it became even more clear how overdue this conversation really is.”

“Is it time we brought Movin’ Out back to Broadway? With renewed interest in Billy Joel’s music and Twyla Tharp returning to reimagine the original, the moment feels right.”

“With the likelihood of another Gypsy revival in the next decade, let’s have some fun and present seven powerhouse performers who could step into on the most revered and challenging roles in musical theatre canon.”

“Not a full ballot—just one collective vote added to each category. It could boost engagement, bring in new audiences, and give Broadway lovers a real seat at the table. Here's why it might be time.”
