Just watched a recording of Audra McDonald performing Rose's Turn at the Tony's last night and not at all embarrassed to say I broke into applause at the end - to the surprise of everyone sitting near me in this coffee shop.

Orwell's Two Minutes Hate is basically the comments section of social media posts. Except it's constant.

New report says β€˜government must act’ to ease pressures on British theatres Attendances are up and average ticket prices down, even in the West End, but the sector faces mounting and unsustainable strain

"If we want to maintain the UK’s position as a global leader in theatre – and continue to inspire the next generation of actors, writers, and technicians – then government must act.” www.theguardian.com/stage/2025/m...

"There is no place for arrogance in the arts, but neither is there room for doubt or a perpetual need for affirmation...The world doesn't have time for that. Believe in your worth and work with a will so that others will see it. That's how it is done; that's how it was always done." -Martha Graham

Why, when prices for a show in the West End are announced, do people check the MOST expensive price and then scream blue murder about it?

Goodbye DCMS? Government β€˜considering abolition’ of department - Arts Professional The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) could be β€œabolished” with its responsibilities split between three other government departments, it has been claimed. An article published by the Sun...

If true, it's an ignorant, myopic decision. Philistinism. www.artsprofessional.co.uk/news/goodbye...

They've done things not even the Cass report called for and they're doing things not even this Supreme Court called for.

All they wanted was permission.

I do not want to see Keir Starmer or Labour UK anywhere near Pride in London ever again - bowing down to Transphobic bigots over a warped and biased ruling which architects of the Equality Act 2010 have already spoken out against… Labour has abandoned the LGBTQ+ community

The Trans Rights demo yesterday was beautiful and hopeful. So many diverse people from all walks of life coming together - the word I kept thinking about was "community". You can spend billions buying sycophants. Or a cigar. But all the billions cannot buy community. And that's why we will win.

This is a terrific examination of the cultural phenomenon A Minecraft Movie. I particularly love the John Waters quote: β€œIn order to know something is bad, one has to have good taste. But one also needs to be able to understand the value of bad.”

Trans flag.

Trans flag.

Trans rights are human rights. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Our agency is, and always will be, a safe space.

"The big fight of our time is to get the public excited about moviegoing again, as an ongoing thing, not just for one Minecraft here and there."

As always a great piece from Richard Rushfield and The Ankler and a fun quiz (I scored a weak 6)

Tony Winner William Finn Has Died at 73 The composer/lyricist was responsible for some of the most popular cult musicals of all time, including Falsettos , A New Brain , and The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.

Ah, damn, the great William Finn has gone to the choir.
I sang The Games I Play at my drama school showcase about 20 years ago and fell in love with his work then. I took Mark's All Male Thanksgiving to so many auditions. Another tremendous loss. playbill.com/article/tony...
