“Theatrical arts, like many creative industries, can be significantly shaped by political landscapes. With the reelection of Donald Trump, we have to consider the potential impact of his administration’s policies on funding, social dynamics, and cultural messaging in the arts.”

“Theatre has survived through wars, political shifts, social challenges, and even a pandemic, and it will continue to do so. While the road ahead may feel daunting, your work remains vital and valued.”

Michael Powers, the theatre instructor for Unionville High School for ten years, held a press conference today expressing amazement that Broadway hasn’t recruited him to direct headline musical acts.

“Too often we take for granted the fact that we share the stage, the story, the wonder, and the present moment together, as a unit. Call it what you will: cast, crew, team, friends, or even perhaps family.

“A Harris Administration will not propose cutting funding for the arts. A Harris Administration will fight for more rights for underrepresented communities whose life experiences are crucial to the modern-day theatre experience. A Harris Administration will stand up for the messages the theatre community stands up for every day: tolerance, love, joy, diverse representation, and justice.”

“It’s disgusting that instead of honoring Gavin’s life and legacy, Zachary Levi chosen to divert attention to nonsense. Gavin Creel deserved better, and so do all of us who are left mourning his loss.”

“The reviews are out, and, as expected, everyone is raving about the Sunset Boulevard revival at the St. James Theatre. In nearly every review, critics say that Nicole Scherzinger’s performance as Norma Desmond is a revelation. So with that said, is Scherzinger the favorite to take home a Tony Award?”

"It would be wonderful if there could be some flexibility or lightheartedness around these fan-made tributes. I’m certain they’re meant with deep admiration and excitement rather than disrespect."

“While I’ve seen all kinds of productions in the month I thought it would be fun to rank what I call “October Shows” and these are the plays or musicals that most try and emulate the spirit of the season and give a little haunted Halloween joy to the audiences.”

“If you identify as a “mover”, don’t use it as an apology. For many actors, “mover” is a good way to express strength in physicality, especially for people who don’t perform in musicals.”

“A Texas school board has implemented a policy that requires a superintendent-led review of every play and musical before it can be performed, even if it’s been previously approved by the school. The policy would also allow school officials to make changes to the scripts.”

“Theatre is a trade, an art, and doesn’t require any degree to get jobs and get into the industry.”
