Autism is not a mental illness. It's a neuro diversity. I'm not an expert but I do hope that you do research this topic as classifying autism or any neuro divergency as an illness is harmful to t...

Friends, Creatives: I practically inhaled this article. I will be re-reading, absorbing, and sharing it with my world and beyond. Thank you all.
Soon, our deeds will speak for themselves! We are DOING what should have been done a long time ago. We call it- JEDI- Justice Equity Diversity and Inclusion. No talk, just walk.
Lara is such a brilliant leader and communicator. Thank you for this!
In reply to seanmartin. Wonderful perspective. Thank you
But will they come? It was already difficult getting/keeping ongoing audience attendance at theaters everywhere, prior to the pandemic, except for these large theater centers.
Excellent аrticle. I'm experiencing many of these issues as welⅼ..
I loved this episode!! So many touching letters, and I sympathize with them all. Second vaccine next month, then I’ll be ready for a trip to Broadway! Thank you for your wonderful podcast.
Dearest Heather, I am crying as I write this. While we have talked about this on occasion it is profound to see it in written form. Lately, on my computer screen, pictures of my Mom and your Dad ...
That's sad hope they find someone as good as her

Looking for venues where new musicals can be developed. I'll have a half-dozen, written in collaboration with as many composers, ready by the time these reopen.
Congratulations, Ken! I wish you much success. I wish you persistence, insight, and many creative aha moments. Mary Doidge in Des Moines
That's Larry Bates with Ms. Truitt in San Diego. They also played in Los Angeles at the Matrix Theater. And in Memphis, with Hatiloo Productions. Happy King Day !
Way back, in the dark ages when typewriters roamed the earth, I was in a show at LaMama. It was an absolutely phenomenal experience!!!

What is the problem having full white people cast in a show?
I heard about this a while back and was quite excited. I contacted GalaPro to find out how to become a partner, and they didn’t even bother to respond to my email. Sigh.
Thank god someone has finally had the bravery to tell us that all white people are racist and have "caused" "injustices," that the only good plays about whiteness were written by non-white people...

One artistic director that doesn't sound or talk like an 'Artist' to me.
As much as I fully support access of the Arts to all, I find the promotion of iPhone usage (the very thing all theaters should be banning) a huge a contradiction. Even low-light devices can be th...
