People Are Wrong!

Houses on the Moon Theater Company will present a one-night-only benefit reading of Tara's Crossing, written by co-founder Jeffrey Solomon, marking the company's 25th anniversary season.

Veteran theatrical press agents Heath Schwartz and Michelle Farabaugh have acquired principal ownership of Boneau/Bryan-Brown, Inc., a publicity firm with over three decades of experience serving the theater industry, rebranding the company effective June 1, 2026 as Aperture Public Relations.

The stage production does make a lot of strides that strengthens the endurance and popularity of this love story. It repeats iconic moments from the popular 2004 film, but isn’t aping the original screenplay in any way. A new libretto offers a fresh take that borrows the basic structure of the novel and memorable film moments, whilst breathing in new voices and new scenes that add different layers to these familiar characters.

There’s a strange dichotomy that exists in live theater. I may not like the material, but will still find reason to love its execution. And at Theater West End, they’ve culled together a company of players who help elevate the material of POTUS into a comedy that now exists thanks to their approach to the characters. They form a symbiotic relationship with the audience throughout the two acts to make us still care for them, for their arcs, and for their resolutions – no matter how far-fetched it may seem. This is where the production of POTUS shines.

Now having its Southern California regional production, MEAN GIRLS - THE MUSICAL continues performances at the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts through May 3, 2026. Produced by McCoy Rigby Entertainment, this fun, high-energy, youthfully-targeted new iteration of the 2018 stage adaptation of Tina Fey’s beloved 2004 film comedy looks and feels like a brand new show—boosted by impressive new visuals and a highly-caffeinated ensemble whose enthusiasm and verve is quite infectious. A dazzling, entertaining show with high-caliber polish, La Mirada's production is a slick, electrically-charged iteration that is a worthwhile new chapter in the show’s evolution.

Theater West End was wise to split Angels in America in the season as two separate performances, each with their own block in the schedule. Originally, I was concerned that the Part Two of it all might turn away prospective theatergoers. But upon watching both parts now, and bearing in mind my own familiarity for the characters, I can also see now how the original production’s 18-month gap would have also been enticing for an audience.

NYC has so many incredible events, but here are a few top picks to consider this week including Laura Benanti, singer-songwriter Nellie McKay, jazz, a songwriter's response to new work by writer Jennifer Egan (Visit from the Goon Squad) and more.

Portland Stage will begin 2026 with big belly laughs! Bringing this three-time Tony Award-winning laugh riot, Lend Me A Tenor by Ken Ludwig, to the stage.

While much of the dramatic weight of Angels in America undeniably stems from the specter of AIDS, it would do the play a huge disservice to reduce it to a story about disease alone. What Theater West End makes clear is that Kushner’s work is as much about identity, loss, and the human struggle to reconcile who we are deep down with who we present to the world.

Titanique has announced some of its Broadway cast! Alongside Marla Mindelle, who will lead the Broadway company as Celine Dion, are Jim Parsons, Deborah Cox, Frankie Grande and Constantine Rousouli.

Tony Award-winning Producer Kevin McCollum [RENT, Avenue Q, In The Heights] upcoming Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York)], who was honored at their annual gala, generated more revenue for the progressive advocacy organization.

BroadwayWorld chats with pioneering lesbian playwright and performer Terry Baum about her latest show 'Lesbo Solo: My Gay History Play' running at The Marsh Berkeley through October 12th. Her hilarious and deeply moving piece won 'Best of Fringe' at the San Francisco Fringe Festival.

Chad Marge and Delilah Jane Dunn will star as Romero and Juliet, alongside Tony nominee Steven Skybell as Uncle Larry (Friar Lawrence) in a concert presentation of the new zombie rock musical ROMERO & JULIET in Concert at the Cutting Room NYC.

There’s something about seeing a band like Simple Plan live that reminds you why pop punk hit so hard in the first place. On September 12th, they took over The Armory in Minneapolis—and for anyone lucky enough to be in the room, it was a perfect mix of nostalgia, energy, and genuinely great musicianship.

FRIGID New York has revealed the lineup of programming for their 28th season including the 4th annual Days of the Dead Festival and more. See full programming here!

I have had a couple of run-ins. I've been married three times. I have three kids that I know of. I was doing things and I never thought I would be a Tupperware lady. I was doing things that normally weren't panning out from where I was from. My mama said, “I'm not pretty enough to work at this strip club!”

I like to write all the time and generally write two plays a year, just because I take very seriously the notion of this being my profession. I would say playwright is spelled WRIGHT [write]. It's like a Cartwright or a wheelwright. It's somebody who rolls up their sleeves and does their work.

The Pulitzer Prize-winning drama Glengarry Glen Ross returns in a starry new Broadway revival, opening tonight at the Palace Theatre! Read reviews for the show below!
